  the touchpad on my toshiba laptop with windows vista is disable, and I don't know who to make it work again.

  Hello

  Toshiba has also map of keys which allow easy adjustment of the TouchPad. See support for Toshiba
  and Forums. The key shortcut for the TouchPad, if they are responsible in the Fn + F9 or see the key card
  So usually loaded at the top of the screen.

  There is also usually a TouchPad control utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock
  at the bottom right.

  Toshiba support - click Communcate for links to the Forums and Contact Toshiba.

  Toshiba downloads - access your model.

  Toshiba forums - good source of info from others who have the same system or similar
  http://laptopforums.Toshiba.com/

  Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there probably
  are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

  Also check the control - Mouse - touchpad settings panel.

  You can also try this:

  Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touch pad-
  The driver tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
  (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

  Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
  RESET

  This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
  of work.

  Here is the similar procedure in XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific
  device if present.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

  Then go to the website of the manufacturer of system (Toshiba downloads - access your model - listed above)
  and get the latest touchpad drivers.

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

  I hope this helps.

• Click on the touchpad of my toshiba laptop windows 7 does not work.

  I'm managing with the two keys supplied click click of my touchpad suddenly stopped working... But not the touchpad click.
  I don't know why? It's never happened before... I have windows 7 on my laptop Toshiba L505-S5990. Please help me in this

  First, go to control panel, mouse and check the settings.  Experience if you wish because it does no harm.

  If the settings are correct, but the computer does not correctly, go to configuration panel, devices Manager and look at mose settings here.  Maybe there was an update driver - try to roll back driver or search for a better driver.

  Look for the manufacturer of your site support & forums to see if new drivers are available, or if someone else has solved the problem already.

  If none of this works, close this post & open a new one with a list of all the controls, you did & what were the results.

  Hello..

• Unable to get the touchpad disabled on my Asus laptop

  No way to disable the touchpad on my Asus laptop.
  My asus is the model #K52F

  Hello

  My first thought is that the best place to look is with Asus themselves. Every time when dealing with a piece of built in material on a laptop computer, the manufacturer is the bast place to search for answers.

  I think you should update the drivers on the computer. Here's the link to those.
  http://www.ASUS.com/notebooks/Versatile_Performance/K52F/#download
   
  It is likely that the driver for the mouse pad does not work properly. Please download the drivers and display the results.

  Also, don't forget that there should be a way to "permanently" to disable the touchpad from the computer's BIOS menu. This will ensure that the touchpad is still disabled, unless you go back into the BIOS and turn it back on.

  Normally you get the BIOS to boot the system upward. A message should illuminate saying press F8 Safe Mode F9 for BIOS or something very similar. Again, it is a better thing for ASUS to answer and guide you if you get stuck.

  I hope this helps! Please post back with the results!

• P850 satellite - 02c - right click does not work while you touch the touchpad

  When using the touchpad on my new laptop, that the work of right click very well when I'm not moving the cursor
  However when I try to press on the right button with my thumb a finger on the touch pad as my index finger and he never enrolled as a left click.

  This seems like an intentional function so I hope one of you has a simple solution.

  Hello

  I think that you must disable the option called Momentum.
  This can be done within the parameters of the touchpad Synaptics (Control Panel-> mouse-> Synaptics tab-> settings button)

  Expand the option called score and remove the brand of Elk point.

• USB mouse has disabled the touchpad computers laptops

  Please help my computer shows the touchpad works very well.  He's totally dead nothing, the two buttons and the touch area.  But the troubleshooting says his works very well.  I was annoyed with the behaviors of touch pads on my new (used refurbished) Windows 7 laptop aspire.  So when my daughter showed me this cute little lite Hello Kitty mouse for $4.oo I bought it.  It works very well!  But it's a laptop, we are talking about here, and having to carry a wired mouse (USB port) is a pain.

  PS this laptop has 4 usb hubs and I'm not comfortable with my touch pad to extinguish them all recover because windows is like they are in the same. pluged USB mouse in the mouse port 000 what is enabled and works very well. What?

  Hi Ruth,.

  The cursor moves because you accidentally brush your hand against it
  while typing.

  With the help of a mouse is rather a much better choice as far as I'm concerned.
  That's what I do. You can disable the cursor, but you don't need to do
  to use a mouse.

  Sorry, I of course meant "...". You can turn off the touchpad... »

• HP 15 laptop: cannot use the touchpad while now the keys

  Sorry if Im this ad in the wrong forum, but I just got a new HP laptop and I can't use the touchpad in now the keys down. I'm playing a game that requires the touchpad to look around, but I can't. Ive already tried disable palmcheck and only allowed me to look around for a second short before the cursor locked up and I wouldn't be able to look around again until I wasn't pressing the keys. Please help ive been everywhere looking for a solution and this is my last hope.

  Hello

  Normally, you just have to disable SmartSense or PalmCheck Control Panel of Synaptics - but from what I've seen, it seems no longer works for Windows 10 versions of this driver.

  You may be able to work around this problem as follows.

  First, download the Synaptics driver on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  Version of the Synaptics 17.0.18.8 driver

  Disable your wireless card (should be f12 ).

  Open Control Panel, open programs and features, right click on the Synaptics driver and select uninstall.

  When finished, restart the laptop.

  When windows rebooted, open your download folder and re-run the installer of Synaptics - when it is finished, restart the laptop.

  Open the Synaptics settings panel, disable SmartSense or PalmCheck , then check if the touchpad works now with a key on the keyboard is pressed.

  If so, turn on your wireless card and use the utility on the following link to prevent Windows 10 to update automatically the Synaptics driver.

• disable the touchpad on laptop

  I have a pavilion dv7-6678us laptop. Windows 7 operating system

  I would like to disable the touchpad I use a mouse. I went to the control under the mouse Panel and couldn't find the info of the mouse. I also tried to disable the touchpad in the left corner. No luck. any suggestions?

  Dragon fur... Yes, I "should" have been able to find the settings, but could not. Looked everywhere I know to look at including the Device Manager before I posted. It was also a concern for me.  and did not know the name of the file. Gettin ' old. First learned about personal computers in 78 in the age of the dinosaurs and have used them since then. not good for good programming. just good to use and problem solving.

  Anyway, thanks a lot for your help! I was able to fix it by downloading the driver... then joy! joy! joy!

• HP 15 laptop: problem with the touchpad and the key "stuck."

  Hello!
   
  Last weekend, I have an irritating problem with my HP 15 laptop. Bought two years ago and upgrades to Windows 10 a year ago.
   
  First of all, my touchpad started to not work properly. It "freezes" and I can't use it until I click the ESC key, but it doesn't last and "freezes" again a few seconds later. Then, everytime I open a window where there is a text box (Start menu, edge browser, Control Panel, etc.), the number 5 is entered automatically and permanently, as if the button 5 has been blocked. I did a quick check and button 5 do not seem physically stuck.
   
  Yesterday, I restored the system to the factory settings, so I'm back to 8.1 for Windows and then upgraded to Windows 10. Everything seems to work fine, but this morning, the problem was back. Is there something I can do? What is the problem caused by Windows 10 or the computer? Should I restore it to Windows 8.1? Everything worked great til last weekend, I don't know what that was.
   
  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Welcome to the HP support community @gouch3.

  I understand that you have a problem with the keyboard and the touchpad on your laptop from HP 15.

  Have you tried to use a keyboard external and mouse at all?

  Have you tried to go to Safe Mode to see if the problems persist in there?

  Have you tried to perform a material or forced reset Reset?

  Did you do a test of material?

  Have you updated your drivers?

  It could be a driver problem to be able to look at that for you, I need your model number. I wish I could give you an answer or not, but at this point without the troubleshooting results and the model number, it is difficult for me to say.

  I can say that if everything works in point 8.1 of Windows without problem, the driver TROUBLESHOOTING is a great place to start. Please try to follow these steps for the keyboard and the touchpad of troubleshooting:

  • Beginning
  • Search for Device Manager
  • Search results, open Device Manager.
  • Click on display
  • Show hidden devices.
  • Click the arrow next to keyboards.
  • Right click on the name of the keyboard device.
  • Select uninstall.
  • Continue deleting the names of devices in the category keyboards until the feature of all the names have been uninstalled.
  • Restart the laptop twice.

  Touchpad:

  • Type of research, "Device Manager."
  • Click on Device Manager,
  • Expand mice and other pointing devices.
  • Right click on the TouchPad,
  • Click on uninstall.
  • Restart the computer laptop twice,
  • Reinstall the TouchPad card.

  I found a document of troubleshooting for you to try also called Portable keyboard troubleshooting. Please be sure to follow the steps described in this document.

  The best document I have for TouchPad problems is the use and troubleshooting of the TouchPad and ClickPad document. 

  Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant, if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers that need to put up-to-date.

  This is a great question other clients may also be questioned. When we came to a resolution, please share what has worked for you with others by marking this post as an acceptable Solution. If you want to show appreciation for my efforts today, please take a second to click the Thumbs Up button below.

  If you need assistance, I would be more than happy to continue to help you. Please re-post with the results of the resolution of the problems. Could you please also provide your model number (How can I find my model number or product number?)

  Thank you!
