Apple :: Mac Trackpad
Oct 13, 2009I have a Unibody MacBook (Spring 2008) and i'm having some major difficulties with this trackpad. It seems to have a huge problem "hanging onto" items I want to move. I have simply given up on trying to drag anything to where I want it. Take for example in Mail, I'll try to move a message from one folder to another and i'll click on the message and it randomly release it into different folder. It will only sometimes "pick" up the message and when it does it randomly "drops" the messege where ever the mouse is. This also happens with windows, it'll sometime take me 5-6 tries to move a window from one side of my screen to the other because the trackpad it will simply not grab the window to move it, and when it does it just "drops" the window a few centimeters from where I grabbed it. And highlighting text is completely impossible since it requires some form of precision.
Now this is not user error as what it might seem from the rather large trackpad. I have tried every conceivable option, from moving my hands completely off the computer while I try to do things with my trackpad.
Does this seem like a hardware issue or a software issue, and does this mean I need to get it checked out by an Apple store.

View 6 Replies View RelatedApple :: Sluggish Trackpad In Snow Leopard
Jan 6, 2010I installed snow leopard onto an external USB harddrive, just to test it out with my computer (macbook pro, 17-inch, not sure which year it's from, I've had it since 2007)
I ran into a major issue, the trackpad response is extremely sluggish (about a 1-second delay between the movement on the trackpad and the movement on the screen)
Interestingly enough, when I boot snow leopard on my friend's laptop (macbook pro, 15-inch, also from 2007), the trackpad responds just fine.
Apple :: Mac Book Pro 15 - Keepboard/trackpad/handrest Protection
Apr 12, 2009I just got my Mac Book Pro 15" a couple of days ago & do love it! ( except I'm still adapting from my Dell I've had for so many years. )
& I'd like to protect it from scratches & spills etc.
I've once seen a single one piece of silicone that covered everthing, but I cant find it now.
I'm assuming its not available for the newer models.
I dont know if I'm crazy about the Marware's stuff.

I dont think this one even has the keyboard cover.
Apple :: Randomly / Rarely Jumpy MM (and Once Trackpad) Pointer Motion
Jul 16, 2009I have recently noted that, sometimes (randomly and rarely for the time being), the pointer of my bluetooth MM (Mighty Mouse) moves farther than what I was expecting it to move. This happened probably in concomitance with the opening of some application (Iphoto once). In other words, it appeared to me that the pointer accelerated more than what I demanded it to move with the displacement of the mouse. It was not really a uncontrolled jump (as it sometimes happens with optical mice) but like a transitory but self-contained loss of pointer control.
I believe that a similar event occurred also once with the trackpad pointer when I went to the bottom of the screen to make dock appear in concomitance with a skype call launch....the pointer seemed to move fast to the right although I am quite sure it was not my finger to command this motion on the pad.
I have tried (with respect to MM) to delete and recreate the bluetooth .plist but it did not prevent from having this occurrence (note also that the batteries are OK).
I have read in some other forum, here in this site, that this might be due to OSX pointer acceleration (not perfect) management.

Apr 26, 2009I'm on my 2nd SXPS 16 (first one had dust under the glass) and on both systems the trackpad gets very hot even when I'm barely using the computer! Is there anything I can do to get the heat down? Is there a application that allows me to increase fan speed?
It really get uncomfortably hot even when it's just sitting on my desk with no programs running (and I have the 256GB SSD which I thought would reduce heat!). I also know this isn't an issue with the computer b/c the original one I had, had the same issue
Dell :: M1530 Trackpad Sometimes Unresponsive
Jan 15, 2009my track pad on my M1530. I have sometime when I will run my finger across the track pad but the cursor with not move. It will jitter a little bit but will do nothing else. Then after a couple seconds, and sometime a hit on the palm rest, it will work again. It has happened probably the whole time I have had the laptop( 7 months), and now it seems to be occurring more frequently. Also, for the whole time I have had the laptop, the track pad will not always register a tap on it as a click, it just sits there like I did nothing. I know that could be a setting, but I have messed with them the best I can and it has changed nothing. Do you think this could be a driver issue, I have updated the driver since I got the laptop, or could it be bad hardware that came with the laptop. I have a complete care warranty, so they would probably replace it no problem, and I am already going to have the motherboard replaced because of a broken clip on the Ethernet port.

Every so often (probably once week) the trackpad will stop functioning: the buttons keep working but the pointer does not move. At that point the only thing I can do is to shut down and reboot. There doesn't seem anything systematic about what I am doing before to trigger this.
I normally have the pointing stick switched off, I've turned it back on to see how that interacts
