MacBook Air :: Light Tap The Track Pad To Simulate Clicking?

May 26, 2012

I'm coming from the MS Windows laptop. I noticed that I have to actually press the track pad (I'm not sure if that's what it's called) and simulate clicking. In the MS Windows side, I can lightly tap the track pad area and it would be a click. Is there a setting on the Mac OS X Lion or Macbook Air that would allow me to do this instead of hard pressing the trackpad for a click?

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

MacBook Pro :: Harddrive Clicking / And Have The Clicking Noise?

Sep 6, 2010

I may have found a solution for all the people out there who upgraded their hd's to a 7200rpm and have the clicking noise. Apple released a firmware update for the 7200rpm drives that shipped with the uMBP. You can get the file from here.I don't know if this will fix only the hd's shipped with the MBP or any 7200rpm drive but its worth a try.PS: Also i ask that anyone who tries this please report back on your results.

MacBook Air :: Track Pad Won't Click?

Jun 16, 2012

I'm in a position where I have no way of clicking, this brings up a ridiculous problem I never thought I'd encounter whereby I can't even back up or fix the problem.

Ridiculous error if you ask me, there is an option to use universial access and turn on mouse keys but I can't click the stupid option.

How can I click/select items. Can't find any shortcuts that will allow me to do this, plugging in mouse still doesn't work.

MacBook Pro :: Cannot Click Anything With Track Pad

Jun 20, 2014

I have a silver 2010 MacBook Pro that has OS X 10.8.5.

2.5 GHz Intel Core i5

4GB 1600 MHz DDR3. 

Now that you have that info, onto the issue.

My track pad will work to move the pointer, but I cannot click on anything. If I shut down and restart my computer, I am able to use a usb mouse just fine. If I so much as touch the track pad the usb mouse will only move the pointer and not click anything. I will have to restart the computer to be able to use the mouse again.

I have tried a SMC and a PRAM reset and it did not work. I did check the track pad settings and those are all ok. I am not sure if there is a way to do the AHT without a disk. I did look into some .plist thing to, but was not able to find what they were talking about so I did not do that.

OS X :: Track Stolen Macbook Pro / Xbox 360?

Nov 7, 2008

Alright, here goes my last two weeks. Two Sundays ago I was playing football with a couple friends. The game ended abruptly when I broke my leg and went to the hospital, but thats not the bad part. I was in the hospital for 6 hours and when I got home I found that someone had broken in and stolen my 32" Vizio flatscreen TV, xbox 360 elite, DVD player, and most importantly my 15" Macbook Pro. I called the police immediately and they came out and did the standard police thing, but as I've been in contact with them lately, they say they have no leads and I'm not going to get my stuff back, bottom line. Now I'm left with no computer to work with and worst of all, I know I'll never get the things back that were important to me on that computer. I had pictures on it from when I was 10 years old and I'll never see them again. I worked really hard to save the money to buy those things and they are all gone in an instant. I just can't believe it. I have no one else to turn to and I just don't know what else I can do. I'm getting married soon and I can't afford to go buy a new laptop, to be honest at this point that's all I care about as far as what was stolen. If anyone knows any way to track a laptop or xbox 360 it would be appreciated. I know its a long shot.

MacBook Pro :: Log In Keyboard And Track Pad Delay

Sep 14, 2009

I am having a really strange problem with my MBP (Stats are in my Sig) running 10.6.1. Whenever I start or restart my computer, the keyboard and track pad click are unresponsive at the login/password screen. The computer recognizes them and eventually enters them but the delay is almost 2 minutes long! I have logged out without restarting and I do not have this issue. I have tired repairing permissions, and resetting PRAM. I am thinking about an Archive and Install.

MacBook Pro :: Track Pad Was Not Functioning Properly

Feb 26, 2012

I have a 2010 MacBook Pro 15" and randomly, just opened the screen to wake it from sleep, and about 5 minuets after being on the computer the track pad started becoming more and more unresponsive. To explain on unresponsive; at first the two finger scroll to scroll the page up was not working, then the pointer would not "follow" movement from my finger very well, and finally anytime I touched the track pad (such as just laying a finger down and not moving the finger across the track pad) It would do almost any gesture and was completly unresponsive of movement. I restarted the laptop multiple times, complete shut down wait about 10 min then start back up, and the track pad would be functional for a couple of minutes before doing above listed again. So I cleaned the track pad with a napkin while pressing down which seemed to make it work again and so far has not acted up again.

MacBook Pro :: Track Pad Click Not Working

May 23, 2012

I have a early 2011 13" Mac book Pro and yesterday out of the blue the bottom left click has stopped working 

I have checked if secondary click was on and it was. My bottom right click works perfectly fine. 

The trackpad makes the sound it is clicking but nothing happens on the screen. If i press really really hard on the bottom left corner it will register I have clicked, but it's not very practically.

MacBook Pro :: Track-pad Sometimes Laggy (2011)?

May 28, 2012

I just got a MacBook Pro two days ago. It's been working fine except for one small problem - the track-pad sometimes lags.The problem occurs mainly on the user logon page when you start up the page, and sometimes on Safari, etc. It doesn't occur too often to be a distraction. Should the lagginess be a concern, and does it happen on all MacBook Pros?

MacBook Pro :: Track Pad Stuck On Right-Click And Drag?

Oct 28, 2009

I did a search and didn't see anybody with the same problem. I have an Oct 2008 (unibody) MBP with 2.8 ghz core 2 duo, 4GB RAM, 320 GB 7200 RPM HDD.So I loaded a YouTube page, paused a video to let it load and suddenly when I tried to click "play" the track pad seemed to not be working. I then realized that it was highlighting all the text and I couldn't click out of it. Likewise, when I apple-q safari, it began selected icons in my desktop. I noticed I could still two-finger-tap to right click and open a context menu, but I can't select anything within that menu.

I can't imagine the notebook suddenly became damaged. I know early macbook pros had a similar problem due to the battery swelling, but I opened the battery compartment and the battery feels very cool. I also read that resetting the SMC and repairing disk permissions might help, but that didn't do anything either.

MacBook Pro :: Keyboard And Track-pad Input Acting Different?

Mar 6, 2012

I have a really annoying problem with my macbook pro. Often (maybe 40-50% of the times) when i click some text field (on a webpage in Chrome or Safari, or in Finder's search field - actually any text field on my mac) and start to write something, nothing happens. Then if i use my trackpad and CLICK on the text field, all of the letters which i wrote, suddenly appears. The same thing happens with scrolling (in Apple's Preview app, browsers, finder etc.). Sometimes when i try to scroll, nothing happens. If i then click anywhere inside the window, it scrolls. Same thing happens with gestures if i use Preview to view a pdf in fullscreen. If i use 3 fingers swipe to browse to another page, nothing happens. If i click anywhere it immediately go to the other page. Is this software or hardware related? I'm thinking software, unless it has something to do with my trackpad. It's a 13" Macbook Pro (2.3 i5)

MacBook Pro :: Track-pad Doesn't React To Clicks

My trackpad stopped recording clicks all of a sudden. I'm not sure I changed anything at all, I'm on Lion. I also have a wacom tablet connected and the mouse that comes with it works just fine, but the laptop's own trackpad and the magic trackpad I have on the desk are not able to record clicks anymore?
