Dell :: 2 Finger Scrolling, Alps Touchpad, Inspiron 1545

Sep 17, 2009

I recently bought an Inspiron 1545 and absolutely cannot stand not being able to 2-finger scroll. The "side pad" function works poorly at best, and is so undependable that I am resorted to using a mouse whenever possible.

How on earth can I get my Inspiron 1545 with an Alps touchpad to have 2 finger scrolling similar to Mac systems? Is it even possible?

Dell Inspiron 1545 :: Touchpad Left Half Can Only Respond To Up / Down Finger Movements

Mar 30, 2013

Laptop 3 years old and touchpad slowly stopped responding one night.

Downloaded new driver (ALPS Touchpad v7.1007.115.102. A05) no less than 3 times and had a partial success. Now right half of touchpad is ok but left half can only respond to up/down finger movements.

Run Dell diagnostics and all hardware is ok.

Run a full antiVirus scan and ok. Laptop says new driver is ok and running ok.

Touchpad does not work in BIOS and done a full diagnostic check and said the touchpad is fine!

Use of mouse is ok so not the end of the world!

Back to factory settings?

Dell Inspiron 5520 :: With Disabled Keyboard - Touchpad Functional

Apr 8, 2013

Ive had the laptop about two weeks and honestly, do not know how this happened, but the keyboard on the laptop stopped working 2 days ago. A USB keyboard does not work either.  The on screen keyboard is the only way to use this laptop now.  Steps I have taken to resolve the issue that have not worked are

1. unplugging of all peripherals, powered it off, disconnected the power cord and removed the battery and let it sit for a minute, then powered it back up with no peripherals and nothing, no change.
2. system refresh did nothing to bring the keyboard back.
3. uninstalled keyboards in device manager and rebooted to nothing from the keyboard.  

It seems odd that the on screen keyboard is the only keyboard option that works, does the onscreen keyboard have an override that prevents any other type of keyboard from working while it is enabled?  i get the vibe that the use of the onscreen keyboard is at the root of this issue, and the touchpad mouse has remained functional, its just the keyboard

Dell Inspiron 3135 :: Intelligent Display Won't Disable? (Windows 8.1)

Jul 23, 2014

Dell Inspiron 3135 with a fresh install of Windows 8.1, also installed the newest Dell Quickset and its bios is up to date.  When I toggle "Enable Dell Intelligent Display in Battery Mode", Intelligent Display turns off.  However, if I reboot or put the comptuer into sleep mode the feature turns itself back on!  The checkbox in the dialog still shows it should be disabled though.

This has been a persistent issue for months with different reinstalls, and I've heard of others having the same issue.

Dell Latitude E7240 :: Touchpad Multi Finger Gestures

Nov 15, 2014

Latitude E7240 has Touchpad Alps. All works fine except settings "Flick" (Gestures -> Multi Finger Gestures).

This setting works, but after some time (random period) stops working. To fix this I need restart Apoint.exe or go to settings, deselect Flick and select it again.

My laptop's BIOS has latest version A11 and all drivers installed from web site Dell.

Also, I tried to install Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 with touchpad drivers only, but this did not solve problem.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y500 Touchpad Two-finger-tap Not Working

Apr 21, 2013

I bought my Y500 a few days ago and happy with it in general. However, one day the two-finger-tap (for right click) on the touchpad stopped working. Below is a description.
 
Everything else as far as I can tell, including two-finger scroll and one-finger tap and so forth, are working fine, but the two-finger tap stopped working even though it worked fine for a few days. I have a suspicious as to what caused it but I'm not entirely sure. In any case I think it's most likely a bug, and probably software.

One day I went into "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "Scrolling" -> "two-finger scrolling" -> "enable coasting". I played with coasting for a while, and soon disabled it again because I didn't really like it. However, it was then that I noticed that my two-finger tap stopped working. I have doubled-checked that "control panel" -> "mouse" -> "device settings" -> "settings..." -> "clicking" -> "two-finger click" is set to "secondary click (context menu, special drag)", but the two-finger click still doesn't work, even after a restarted. I downloaded the latest driver (version 16.2.18.0) and it still didn't work. I uninstalled the driver and installed it again and it still doesn't work. Now I like using the touchpad, but really hate living without two-finger tap for right-clicking.

Dell XPS 14 L421x :: Two Finger Scrolling Not Working Properly After Touchpad Driver Update

Feb 28, 2013

After updating the touchpad drivers to 16.3.7.0 A03, there has been an issue with two-finger scrolling.

When I lift my fingers off the touchpad, it jumps to the bottom of the page. This is very frustrating as I have to scroll back up to find my place. This happens with Chrome, Word, IE, Firefox, everything.

The same issue is also plaguing this user: [URL] .....

Lenovo Y510p P/Y/Z Series :: Elan Touchpad Two Finger Right Click

Oct 19, 2013

I recently purchased a Lenovo Y510p, and the touchpad uses the ELAN software. However, by default, it doesn't seem to allow you to use two fingers to tap for right click, nor three for middle click.

After digging into the matter, I discovered you can make some changes by installing Asus Elantech driver 11.5.0.9 to allow you to see many more options in the control panel, and I successfully changed Swapping and 3 and 4 finger touch functions.I am struggling to change the double finger tap.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y580 Touchpad Two Finger Tap For Right Click Not Working

Jan 24, 2013

I bought my Y580 about a month ago and it has been great. The only problems I've been having with it is with the touchpad. About a week ago the synaptics software on here started to shutdown at random and things like two finger scrolling and swiping from the sides would all stop working. I searched around and downloaded updated software both from synaptic's website and from lenovo driver support. The newest ones from lenovo are the only ones that don't quit at random but now the only thing that doesn't like to work still is the two finger tap to right click. Sometimes it'll work for the first ten min when I first turn the laptop on but then it'll quit. Two finger click sometimes works for right click but not always and two finger tap for right click never works any more.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z580 Touchpad Not Registering Two Finger Click On Windows 8.1

Oct 30, 2012

I recently upgraded my Z580 to Windows 8.1 x64 from Windows 8x64
 
Some Windows 8.1 drivers work, for some things I had to use Windows 8 drivers
 
But the touchpad isn't registering a two finger click as a right click on either of the drivers. It used to work fine on Windows 8 but  I have to use the button to right click which is uncomfortable. Two finger scrolling works fine, pinch zoom gesture works fine, even Windows 8 screen edge gestures work perfectly...

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Z400 Synaptics Touchpad Is Stuck On One Finger Scrolling

Jan 16, 2015

So since I've bought this computer I've had problems with the two-finger scrolling suddenly stopping, like many people have. That's always been fixable by going into properties, device settings, settings, unchecking/rechecking one of the boxes under "two finger scrolling" and hitting OK.
 
Now, though, my touchpad is suddenly stuck on one finger scrolling, and it's super annoying. There is no "one finger scrolling" option under the "scrolling" drop down thingy under device settings, so I haven't a clue why this is happening. I've tried the usual fix above, restarting the computer, installing new drivers, but it still does one finger scrolling. Which means it scrolls a lot of the time when I don't want it to, and the pointer seems to get "stuck" at times when I'm just trying to move it around.

Lenovo X Series ThinkPad :: Spiral Symbol When Move Finger On Ultranav Touchpad?

Jun 24, 2014

I get this spiral symbol (see above image) in place of my mouse indicator when I move my fingers a certain way on the ultranav mousepad.
 
One way it occurs is if I move my finger from left to right or right to left across the bottom of the ultranav mousepad.
 
It interferes with me being able to move the mouse.  I suspect it is to prevent inadvertant movement of the mouse when your finger just brushed the ultranav mousepad.  I would like to turn it off if possible.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T430 - Touchpad Disabled While Or After Pressing Keyboard?

Jul 18, 2012

I have a new Thinkpad T430 and I have an issue with the touchpad. My touchpad is disabled while holding a key on the keyboard which is extremely frustrating. If I hold down a key then my pointer will move a short distance before stopping and becoming unable to move any further until I release the key. I've learned that this feature is know as the palmcheck feature of the ultranav drivers. However, in the settings for my touchpad, there is no palmcheck setting. The feature seems to simply be on with no option to turn it off. I have updated to the latest drivers, but still there seems to be nothing I can do to fix this issue.

HP/Compaq :: Two Finger Scrolling And Three Finger Gestures (Should Work On ALL HPs With Synaptics Touchpads)

Mar 28, 2010

Two finger scrolling now works on the synaptics touchpad of my dv7
I had previously attempted to use modded drivers and other apps (none of which worked), but surprisingly, synaptics seems to have enabled it all by themselves in the latest driver, which is part of scrybe.

More about scrybe: [url]

Guide:

1. Download the ScrybeSetup.exe file from here (you can enter a junk email): [url]

2. Install the software (Make sure it installs both scrybe and the new driver)

2.1 Restart

3. Go to Control Panel>Mouse>Device Settings (Tab)>Highlight Synaptics Touchpad Vx.x> then click settings

4. Once you have the Touchpad settings windows open, you can change all kinds of settings:

Multifinger Gestures>Two Finger Scrolling (Click the gears next to the name)

Multifinger Gestures>Rotating (Click the gears next to the name)......

HP Compaq Presario CQ42 OS/Software :: Synaptics Touchpad Advanced Settings Disabled For Other Users

Jul 2, 2014

I have three user profiles in my Compaq Presario CQ-42, one is administrator and others are "Other User". When I fisrt saw the synaptics touch pad settings window through my first "Other User" profile 1, in Mouse Properties->Device Settings->Synaptics LuxPad V7.4->Settings, all the options in this window were available for selection and no one was diabled. Now when I go to "Administrator" Profile, Some of the options in this settings window are disabled and appear to be partly hidden. Like the option "Enable Pinch Zoom in Pinch Zoom section" and "Enable Pivot Rotate in Rotating" appears to be hidden/disabled. 

For verifying this, I created the another "Other user" profile 2 but no success and I found the same problem here also. I also tried to unistall the synaptics driver several times from all the profiles but every time I re-installed them and checked to get the same result. The settings were only accessible for "Other User" Profile 1 each time and were disable for Administrator profile and "Other User" Profile 2. I can produce the snaps of same if required.

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 :: Two Finger Scroll Functionality Breaks At Irregular But Very Frequent Intervals?

Jan 4, 2015

My new inspiron 15 has an issue with the touchpad - the two finger scroll functionality breaks at irregular but very frequent intervals.

I'd spend 15 minutes on the computer and I'd suddenly not be able to use any multi-finger gestures on the touchpad, specifically the two-finger scroll. I've noticed that at that point, pinch zoom doesn't work either which leads me to believe it's a general issue with multi-finger gestures.

Restarting the computer always fixes it.

I can't tell if this is a hardware defect or a software issue.I've reinstalled the latest touchpad drivers from dell but it has made no difference.

Dell Inspiron 3542 :: Battery Is Temporarily Disabled

Jan 17, 2015

I recently purchased Dell Inspiron 3542 (Nov14), and I'm getting a battery error when my house is a bit cold."Your battery is temporarily disabled. Please turn off your computer and try again when the unit is back to the operational temperature"...This message shows up at bios check and only option is for me to press f2 to enter bios, which doesn't give me any other option. This occurs very frequently, and I never saw such an issue with any other laptop I have owned.

To test, I removed the battery and ran the PC plugged in -- and it worked just fine. Is there a way to prevent this message from showing up and allowing me to use the laptop?
