    How do you prefer to right-click? Two-finger click or bottom-right corner click?

    I've always stuck with the bottom right corner click, but I've noticed more and more mis-clicks since the haptic touchpads came around. Sometimes it just doesn't register or I have to get a lot further over. Never cared for the two-finder click but it seems more reliable, unfortunately. What...

    Is it possible to disable 2-finger right click?

    I recently spent several hours getting Windows (10, build 17763 LTSC) going on a circa-2012 MacBook Pro (the 15" "retina" model, if it matters) and eventually got through the DSDT disaster to get sound working, the Bluetooth rigmarole, the horrible "Boot Camp" software, and the Precision...

    Keyboard and touchpad protection Macbooks?

    Hi, I'm wondering if any of you use those thin transparent protection sheets for the touchpad and keyboard of your MacBooks. If you do use them, are they any good and do they make it more difficult to type / use the trackpad? The only other Macbook I had was from 2007 and the trackpad on that...

    Touchpad clicking by itself

    I'm running into a weird issue where the trackpad will start clicking a few times randomly (not just a sound, actually tapping on objects on the screen) as soon as I touch it. It will go back to normal after using it for a few seconds. But after I stop using the touchpad and it goes into idle...

    PowerBook G4 Titanium touchpad not working

    Hello, I've just got a Titanium PowerBook G4 DVI (emc 1913), but the touchpad doesn't seem to work at all, not even the button. Keyboard works fine, the buttons feels ok, and the touchpad is connected well to the logic board. I've reset the PRAM (the PRAM battery is dead btw) and SMC. What could...

    Touch Pad Defect Brand New MBP

    It seems like there's a bright scratch on the top left of the touchpad on this new MacBook Pro that I just opened today. It is only visible from an angle in a lit room. The problem is that it is very distracting and is most prevalent from the angle that the laptop would normally be used from. Is...

    2018 MBA vs MBP trackpad size

    If you compared them side by side, you will immediately notice MBA trackpad is smaller than the MBP counterpart. Theory? Logically it seems they wanted to distinguish pro line from the air by deliberately making the air trackpad smaller thus compelling buyers to opt for the pro models and pay...

    Trackpad / Touchpad issue on my 2016 15" MBP

    Curious to see if this is an isolated issue or something anyone else has experienced. And hoping it's software since I was lucky to pick up the $3499 configuration at a store yesterday, well ahead of the 4 week estimate with my online order. For reference, I also picked up a non-touch 13" MBP...

    What's up with the gargantuan Touchpad?

    The touchpad on my 13" is already huge, but why take up double the space? So the user has no handrests anymore? I don't get it.
