Yosemite 10.10.2 Update - Trackpad Not Working Properly

MBP OSX Yosemite 10.10.2
The following trackpad gestures no longer working since latest update - four finger mission control, app expose, launchpad, show desktop, two finger scroll in safari (although works in chrome).
The same symptoms on BT trackpad as on the internal trackpad.
All basic troubleshooting tried - reboot, turned all the gestures off and reboot etc etc
Please help

Go step by step and test.
1. Shut down the computer.
    Clean the trackpad with moist not wet microfiber cloth.
    System Preferences > Point & Click
    Try turning off three finger dragging and then turning it on after  testing.
2. Is there any Bluetooth device nearby with failing batteries? If so, replace the batteries.
  3. Reset PRAM:   http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14222
4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Choose the method for:
    "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
5. Close all windows and quit all applications.
    Click the Spotlight -the magnifying glass icon- in the menu bar. Enter Disk utility in the box.
    Select Disk Utility from the drop down. When the Disk utility window opens up,
    select  Macintosh HD, then First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk    Section: "Try Disk Utility" Permissions button.

  • Trackpad Not Working Properly Following Upgrade to Windows 7

    I recently did an in-place upgrade from Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 32 bit on my Lenovo T61p. I also updated all the Thinkvantage drivers and software and have been checking daily for additional updates. Following the upgrade I noticed that the trackpad is not working properly. When I'm typing an email message in Outlook 2007, the trackpad and buttons will not work in the body of the message. I can click on the icons in the ribbon, but nothing works in the body of the message. Same behaviour in MSWord 2007 and Excel 2007. I uninstalled and re-installed both the Ultranav drivers and software utility, using the Windows 7 32 bit versions posted on the Lenovo website, without any improvement.
    I contacted Microsoft technical support and spent an hour on the phone with a Windows 7 technician. He concluded that the problem was with the trackpad driver and was Lenovo's responsibility to address. I then contacted Lenovo technical support and the technician said there was nothing he could do to help me. Disappointing response from both organizations. I've reverted back to the Windows PS2 mouse driver for the time being.
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks

    In fact, the problem could be due to the installation of Client Security Solution 8.3 for Windows 7 (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-73785). It has been discussed here: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-7-Discussion/CSS-8-3-64-bit-WIN7-Office-2007-Mouse-issues/td-p/1...

  • Trackpad not working properly mbp 13 inch 2011 (early)

    My trackpad suddenly stopped working well more precisely is being erratic. When I move my finger across the pad the pointer is not moving and when it does move there seems to be a lag. The gestures are not working properly etc and the pointer would move on its own not by much but a little bit. I have tried SMC and PRAM and that has not helped. I attached an external mouse and was having problems with moving the pointer, however when I selected disable trackpad when external mouse is attached the external mouse worked just fine. All of my software is up todate I am running OSX 10.6.8.  I hope I do not have to get another track pad the laptop is about 7 months old and I have an apple care plan but I am out of the US for the next couple of months so I am looking for fix I can do myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I am sure you have tried what Apple says in this article.
    But cleaning the trackpad with a damp but not wet micro fiber cloth might help
    until Apple Care can take care of the problem.

  • IOS 6 update = Speaker not working properly

    My speaker was fine and I have no reason to believe there are any hardware issues. As soon as I updated my iOS 5.1.1 to the new iOS 6 it stopped working and now I can't listen to music or watch videos on my iPhone unless I insert a headphone!
    What's happened and how can this be resolved?

    Experiencing similar problems with both me and my wife's iPhone 4S's. My phone's speaker was muffled until I played a song, then it seemed to work ok. My wife's will not work at all except for when you adjust sound settings (e.g. changing the alert sound). Then it works only during the "test" and reverts back to its broken state.
    P.S. And yes, I've rebooted both numerous times. This has no obvious affect.

  • Magic Trackpad not working properly since upgrade

    Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, my Magic Trackpad hasn't been working properly. Specifically, the 4 finger gesture to switch between full-screen apps and the 2 finger gesture to open Notifiction Center stop working after awhile. From what I can find out it seems to be connected to my iMac going into sleep mode. I have a feeling this is a bug that Apple needs to fix. Besides going through Restart or into Terminal Mode, is there anything else that can be done?

    Thanks for the information. Unfortunately, I still have to restart the computer to do this and as soon as it goes to sleep again, I'll have the same problem.

  • Photoshop after Latest CC updates is not working properly.

    I just installed CC Photoshop's latest update and now I'm totally out of commision.    Unable to work with any of my previous 3d projects.  They appear to load, but as soon as you select any object, it falls apart.  Objects go flat and rearrannged.   When createing new objects, such as 3D extrusion fonts,   they are flat.  Cannot distinquich the front from the sides.  There are no shadows.    When you click an object, the background dissappears.   When you try to move an object, it stutters and takes several seconds before the object moves.     In regular Photoshop when editing a previous projectl, for example, when setting a paint brush on a given area, an error message pops up says "Could not use the brush tool because the current time is outside the range for the target layer.    "Time"???    What is going on.    Does anyone know if I can uninstall and revert back to a previous project.  I've got work to do.   This is devesating!!   The list goes on.   When trying to create a depth map from a plane object, you'll get an unknown error and cannot get out of it unless you kill it from the Task Manager.    Please help!

    I would think you would first check to see if your video card has driver updates. Check the card maker's website to be very sure. Upgrade to the most current.
    If doing that does not fix it, then try this:
    Dial back your GPU settings (Preferences > Performance) from Advanced to Basic.
    If no luck, downgrade PS, if only to get your work done.
    You can download the Photoshop CC installer direct from ProDesign Tools.
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html
    Follow the instructions carefully or the download link won't work.
    Uninstall your 14.2 version and using the downloaded CC installer, you should have 14.0.0
    I never did this before, but under Help > Updates make sure you don't update past 14.1.2

  • My keyboard does not type at all and the trackpad not working properly

    Hello everyone,
    Today I realised that my computer does not type any letters at all and everytime I try to write something the trackpad works only as if I was pressing the right button (two fingers). After a while the trackpad starts to work again as it should. I have noticed that the trackpad does this when I try to write something. Don't know what to do and this macbook air is quite new and I cannot surf on the internet, write essays and I cannot log in with my password. Sometimes the only letter that works is the "o" and the others do not show up and it makes a sound. I have realised that if I press some of the other letters it can also erase some of the text already there.
    Thank you in advance.
    Kind regards.

    It sounds like you have a stuck key or some other malfunction.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.

    Hello,
    A DataGridView knows nothing about the updates done as shown above, you need to update any rows that have changed yourself. For example. lets say I loaded data from a database table into a DataTable, create a BindingSource and assign that DataTable as the
    DataSource for the BindingSource. The BindingSource becomes the DataSource of the DataGridView so now when you moved up/down rows in the DataGridView you are changing position in the BindingSource and can read this data via BindingSource.Current by casting
    Current to a DataRowView then access the Row property with Field(Of T or SetField(Of T. Couple this will logic to locate rows that may not be the current row and we still can use SetField(Of T)(Col,Value) to update data in the BindingSource which is then immediately
    reflected in the DataGridView.
    The following is for MS-Access but the same logic applies for SQL-Server database via SqlClient data provider rather than
    OleDb data provider.

  • Trackpad not working properly with google Chrome

    Today, my trackpad has ceased to scroll up and down pages in Google Chrome.  It works fine in safari and with applications, but today for no apparent reason it has stopped being able to scroll the Google Chrome browser.  Wierd!

    There is a history of problems with Google Chrome, Lion and to some degree, trackpads.   You should ask your self how much you need Google Chrome which at best absorbs memory at a rate of knots.   Look at 'More like this" to your right >>>
    Many people take Chrome for the extentions available but again, from my experience, they are not always tested with Macs and conflict readily with each other.
    Do some digging via Google and our forum search pages and you may be inclined to stick to Safari.

  • Update/restore not working properly

    My wife and I have been trying to get her iPhone 4S to update to the latest version of iOS. The problem is that the software update server appears to be running at the approximate speed of a glacier -- I have been trying to download the update (a 1.66 GB download) for the last three hours, and every time I do it downloads at about 30 KB per second and tells me there is still 24 to 25 hours remaining. I have checked and rechecked, and there is NO possibility of a bottleneck on my end -- no interference from firewalls or antivirus software -- but in spite of this the download always crashes with an Error 9006, WHICH IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING.
    Are the servers just completely screwed tonight? Is there a solution I haven't figured out yet? I assure you, I've tried about everything that can be tried.

    I would suggest that you hook up the phone to iTunes on the computer you sync with and update that way. It is faster and requires less memory to do the update.
    Cheers,
