    Magic Trackpad Not Connecting

    My Magic Trackpad 1, keeps disconnecting after I updated to El Capitan. I replaced the batteries a few times to make sure it wasn't that. It connects for a second, the disconnects. Then says it's connected but the green light still flashes and the cursor does not move. Don't really feel like...

    Trackpad delicate troubles!

    I have been having lots of issues with trackpad on my Macbook pro early 2011, otherwise in perfect condition. Symptoms: trackpad will randomly stop working correctly, meaning exaggerate every move to uncontrolable erratic pointer jumps and only putting in a mouse in USB port will enable control...

    15" MacBook Pro Late 2016: Trackpad manufacturing error

    If you click near the left and right borders of trackpad, then sometimes it works, sometimes not (it is mechanically blocked). I was also in Apple Store and the MacBooks there had same problem. So for me it's a manufacturing error. It's probably a design failure. Unexpected quality from such an...

    Why no MacBook-pro keyboard/trackpad-combo for desktops?

    This is a question Ive been asking myself for many years. It's too much more productive to have my hands close to the trackpad at all times, while typing, using shortcuts etc. Since I use both a macbook-pro and an iMac this is an issue for me. There must be TONS of others agreeing with me, so...

    Universal Trackpad app for iPad to control an iPhone

    I've seen a lot of apps to turn an iPhone into a trackpad for the iPad, but not the other way around. Is anyone aware of such an app? I'd prefer to use the iPad as the trackpad so I can use Airplay with my iPhone 7+ in landscape and fill an entire 1080p screen. The other way around, the...

    I'll keep it brief, please ask follow up questions if needed to answer this: If you're a 2016 MBP 15" owner/user, is the Trackpad size something that annoys you/ bothers you enough to tell others to avoid getting the the new MBP 2016 15"? Having only seen about a thousand reviews, I still...

    Magic Trackpad 2 occasional lag

    Hi I just bought the trackpad and I love it except that it occasionally lags in wireless mode. For example, as I scroll down a page by flicking two fingers several times, it will miss a flick randomly. It's not just on multi touch. As I flickered through a page and use one finger to move the...

    MBP 2016 Trackpad Tap To Click Problem

    So far I'm loving this new MBP. Awesome update. But the one thing I've noticed is that because I have "Tap to Click" enabled on the trackpad I am getting unwanted taps happening. The issue happens when I type and do not rest palms on the trackpad. Anyone finding this? The solutions I came up...

    New Trackpad Issues - Can't Drag? Can't Click?

    There is something very frustrating about this new trackpad. I already turned off the "look up" feature because it was driving me nuts. Now, there are times when I literally can't click on things and click/drag (enlarging a window, etc.) is often impossible. I could very well be doing something...

    Is it possible to damage the trackpad by pressing hard

    Sure, the Force Trackpad doesn't really click. But it's not solid either. It flexes under pressure, instead of moving on a hinge - like non-force models do. And since it's made out of glass, does this mean you can press it too hard and break it? I'm almost scared to use the firm force press (the...

    The annoyance of unexpected trackpad movement - how to fix

    I've done a lot of Google searching and have made some adjustments but nothing i do seems to fix my problem of erratic trackpad behaviour. I have a 2015 MBP, 15", and am constantly accidentally moving my trackpad with my right palm. It's super frustrating and so disruptive to my typing...

    Trackpad and Keyboard on 15" 2016 MacBook Pro

    I just picked up my 2016 15" MacBook Pro from the Apple Store. Here are a couple of things that are bugging my OCD/paranoia with new Apple computers: - Not all of the keys on the keyboard have the same level of "clickyness". Some give a higher pitched and more snappy click. Some feel almost...

    2016 MBP TB trackpad sticking issue

    Hi all, Just received a 2016 MBP TB 13 and amongst other things I'm noticing the trackpad can sometimes be non responsive when clicking. I have my wrist rested in the same spot and will click away happily and then suddenly I'll go to click and the pad won't depress. The only way I can get it to...

    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...

    Keyboard/Trackpad locking?

    So just about 10 minutes ago from this thread, my keyboard and trackpad decided to lock up on me. I don't know how it happened, I was just browsing the internet, but it happened. Everything else was working, I used a wired mouse to move around, with minimal success as the keyboard is the main...
