OS X :: Triple-click Versus Double-click/how To Make This Change To Leopard/Safari?
Mar 13, 2009My workflow entails repetitive tasks that would be so much easier if I could set Leopard's (Safari's) default double-click functionality to select ALL text within the Google search box instead of having to use a triple-click. Does anyone know how to make this change to Leopard/Safari?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHardware :: Unable Right Click/Left Click On Wireless Mighty Mouse After Disassembling
Aug 9, 2010I had to dissassemble my wireless Mighty Mouse to clean it properly, as the trackball was unable to scroll up and down. As I had cleaned the trackball, I attached the two internal cables to their respective "slots" again and assembled the mouse.
Now my right button does the same as the left button (right click = left click). I tried dissassembling the mouse again, but I cannot see what I could have done wrong. After all, there are only two cables to attach and de-attach inside it.
Hardware :: Mighty Mouse Not Working Fine / Right Click Acts As Left Click
Feb 12, 2007I just bought a mighty mouse, happy as I was, plugged it in and started my ibook running OS X 10.3.9.I know the mighty mouse shouldn't have full functionality (as the software delivered with it is >10.4.2).The problem is that the right click doesn't work right. When I try to right click it sometimes takes the right click, sometimes takes it as a left click (which is extremely annoying in firefox or finder).
I have SteerMouse (I'm a windows/linux user too) installed but when I de�nstalled it the problem remained.
When I plugged the mighty mouse in my pc (at that time running windows) right click just worked.When using a cheap mouse (from pleomax) the right click on the ibook (with Steermouse installed) works all the time.
I find this al really confusing. Seems like it can't be the hardware because it works on windows, but it can't be the software because another mouse does work.
I noticed that when right clicking at the total right side near the "expose-button" (not a position my fingers lay naturally) right click works all the time. I don't hope this is normal?

View 3 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Sometimes Trackpad Will Not Click
Sep 16, 2010Basically, the trackpad works just fine most of the time. However, sometimes (often enough to be aggravating), it will not click. A typical scenario is this: I'll have a web browser or something open and I will want to close the window. So I go to click the red button. The cursor is over the red button, and the button turns to an x, notifying that I am in the right spot. I will click the trackpad, and it will make the click sound, and nothing will happen. I'll try clicking several more times and nothing. The click just won't register no matter how many times I click. What I will have to do to make it work is stop clicking and take my hand off the trackpad for like 5-6 seconds, then click, and it will work. I do not have tap to click on. This is a 15" MBP 2.4ghz i5.

MacBook Air :: Track Pad Won't Click?
Jun 16, 2012I'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, 2014I 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: Does The Trackpad Have A Loud Click
Oct 22, 2010For the new MacBook Air owners: how loud is the click on your trackpad?
I have a black MacBook which has the separate button (pre-glass trackpad). It's almost completely silent. On almost every unibody MacBook Pro though, the click is really loud and can sometimes even be heard in the next room.
How is this with the new Airs? Still loud or not really noticeable? I like to click instead of tap, but not if everyone can hear my neurotic clicking all day long

View 2 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: TrackPad Click Bar Fails
Mar 5, 2008Yesterday I was using my MacBook Air. And I began to hear a loud click, when I clicked on the trackpad, click bar.It's a mechanical sound, it actually comes from the click bar, but only on the left side. I couldn't figure it out, but my son was at home, and he did.The left side of the click bar has raised up a tiny bit, maybe a 1/64th of an inch. The right side remains flush.Apparently something underneath the click bar has broken, or whatever, and allows the left side to float.
So when I click, the sound I hear comes from the raised end of the click bar, as it travels up and down.I'm going down to the Apple Store tomorrow morning to see a "Genius".What are my chances that they'll replace my MBA, rather than sending it to neverneverland?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: MBA Trackpad Button - No Right Click?
Mar 7, 2010I've been considering either a MacBook Pro 13" or a MacBook Air. I'll probably wait until the next MB Pro refresh (looks to be toward the end of March), and either pick up a new one, or possibly a refurb (of the earlier models) or close-out. Not sure yet.
I'm a long-time Mac user, on Macs exclusively since 1987, so no stranger to the platform.
I was checking out the MacBook Air (Apple Store and Best Buy), and noticed something about the trackpad.
It has the "button" at the bottom. But - try as I might - I could not configure it to do a "right click" (that is to say, press "towards the right" on the button to display a contextual menu).
I was able to go to the "trackpad" preference, and was able to set up the "two-finger touch" to invoke the "right click". But there seems to be no way to use the right end of the trackpad button itself to do this.
Is this correct, or did I miss something?
By comparison, it is easy to set up the MacBook Pro to do a right-click, even with its "buttonless" trackpad.
But this feature seems missing from the MB Air.
Is it?

Jun 23, 2010The trackpad on my 2009 Macbook has suddenly gone stiff, I can move the cursor around however the button is stuck down and can only highlight text and will not let me click. A small drop of water hit against the pad 5 minutes before this happened so i don't know if this has anything to do with it.
