How to disable the trackpad on ProBook 4510 s

I have been setting up of a Probook 4510 of s for my disabled son. I have Windows 7 installed successfully and and everything works fine. Unfortunately, due to her problems with fine motor skills, he is unable to use the trackpad effectively and prefers his bluetooth mouse. When you use the mouse he finds often hit the trackpad and move the pointer, just as it is clicking. To the help of a laptop is better slow for him so it would be great if there is a hotkey to toggle the power switch trackpad because exists on many laptops. His old Compaq laptop has a button at the top of the trackpad, but it does not work. The option that turns off in the properties of the device are not (greyed out) and I'm afraid that uninstalling drivers could be disastrous if the mouse fails for some reason any.

He finished his last year in high school including 2 submit them so the laptop is an essential tool.

Recommendations on how to deal with this problem?

Thanks Mets, but who was also grey until the...

I don't know what happened, but after you have reinstalled the lateset Synaptics drivers again, I suddenly able to disable in their software (it was is no longer grayed out). That never conflict or corruption took place he was cured by uninstalling and reinstalling several times.

  • How to disable the touchpad on Probook 4525 s permanently?

    How to disable the touchpad on Probook 4525 s permanently?  Can I uninstall the driver in Control Panel, but the next time, he is back on again once.  I use a usb mouse and touchpad is simply in the way when I type.

    Damy salvation!

    There are a few options depending on your OS and your version of TouchPad.

    • The best option, if it should be available for you is:

    New drivers (at least the V16.x) have the ability to disable the TouchPad / click on the keypad with a setting on the main page 'Settings' when a USB mouse is used.  This is a very nice feature.

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    CHECK "disable the pointing device internal when the external USB pointing device is attached.

    If you want to be alerted and see a visual cue of disability >

    TICK "Animated icon in the taskbar" >

    and make sure you have your updated task bar notifications so you can see the view of the mouse.

    =====================================================

    Here's a 16.2.X TouchPad driver for the ProBook series - it can run on your laptop:

    sp58647 Synpatics V.16.2.10.12

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

    Another method that may work with a driver older if the best option isn't available:

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    () repeat) TouchPad settings (button) > click tapping >

    Click the shimmering blue wheel

    In "box to Disable TouchPad settings".

    CHECK "Double Tap to activate / disable the TouchPad.

    In the 'Action in the upper left'

    CHECK "Turn off the TouchPad.

    Close

    Ok


    NOTE
    if this alternative is available, it is very well, unless something goes wrong.  You could get stuck without your USB mouse AND no way to return to the setting to activate the touchpad.  I don't know if I would use this setting.

  • How can I disable the trackpad? E540

    Hi, I have an E540 and today I spilled liquid on the trackpad and now my cursor is moving and clicking randomly. I use a mouse I don't need the trackpad.

    I read online how to disable the trackpad but I don't have any of these options. As to disable in the BIOS or in the driver (Control Panel-> mouse) - I just uninstall. If I uninstall windows 8.1 will work automatically reinstall after rebooting.

    Thank you!

    You can find the number MTM for the device in the BIOS or inside the Lenovo Solution Center.

  • HP Probook 650 G1: How to disable the keys way to Probook 650 G1 running Windows 7, 64-bit

    I just bought a HP Probook G1, intel i7 650 - 4600 m, system BIOS 01.34-08/28/2015, keyboard review KBC 16.3 C version.

    ESC and F1 through F12 function keys seem to be in the Mode of action key (for example flight gives HP, F6 system information allows you to change the audio levels, etc.)- and I prefer to keep the standard functions of these keys (for shortcuts in Word and Excel, also for Express Scribe transcription software).

    I found Ctrl + Fn + the function key corresponding is workaround to achieve some (but not all) the standard functions - but which is cumbersome when used frequently. Workaround doesn't seem to work for the ESC key.

    I saw a few tips on how to disable the Mode keys on some laptops HP - eg
    http://support.HP.com/au-en/document/c02035108

    - and I have used this method on the previous laptop HP (e.g. Pavilion G6), but it does not work for this Probook. The configuration screen of the BIOS on my new machine does not seem to show the key Action Mode (or same System Configuration) as an option.

    I would be grateful for suggestions.

    Problem is now resolved, thanks to HP Technical Support phone line. Their tips were:

    * go to the BIOS Setup in the usual way (shut down, then power on, press ESC, choose F10 for Bios configuration)

    * Choose the Information System

    * arrow above to advance

    * Choose the Configuration of the device

    * Uncheck the Fn key switch

    * Save, etc.

    The corresponding option is more referred to Action Mode button for this model of HP laptop, at least not for the version of BIOS this Probook 650 G1 (worm 1.36, 25/04/2016).

  • How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function

    How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function?

    Hello

    It is not currently possible to completely disable the SOS emergency feature.

    However, to disable "hold to call auto":

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > emergency SOS - deactivate Hold to call self.
  • How to disable the feature CALL SOS?

    I've just updated to iOS 10 and 3 watch OS, but I can't find how to disable the feature of emergency SOS on my Apple Watch.

    I thought it would be a good feature for me so I turned it on, but my fingers are clumsy, so I struck the wrong cursor when I turned off my watch and accidentally, I called 911. I've disabled "Stick to Auto Call" and deleted all my contacts SOS in general in the application to watch on my iPhone and I restarted the iPhone and the Apple Watch, but emergency SOS still shows on my watch when I want to turn off my watch.

    I think that before I turned emergency SOS, I saw "Power Reserve" under the "Power Off". I read that once you turn Hold for Auto call in the app shows and then turn off, the cursor of SOS emergency will always be displayed when you turn off the watch.

    How can I disable the cursor of emergency SOS when I turn off my Apple Watch? Can I use Reset under general, or désapparier my watch and pair again? I don't want to do that, because it would take a lot of time to get all my settings that I want them to be.

    Hello

    I'm not aware of any option settings to remove the emergency SOS cursor in the menu that appears on pressing them and holding the button.

    If you want Apple to consider adding an option to disable the feature, you can submit a request here:

  • I don't have a message to tell me the image my takes up screen is set to full screen. How to disable the who and the fade slow when he goes to fs?

    In Firefox 42

    When a site like youtube when I make the video fullscreen it just melted slow useless when it does. And then tells me that it is full screen. I know that it is full screen for two reasons. One, I hit the button fullscreen. Two, the video takes up my entire screen. The message point. Use the fade. How can I disable them?

    To disable the fade, you can change these preferences of the topic: config page.

    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.enter: "0 0".
    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.leave: "0 0".

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    I do not know how to disable the warning, but it might be possible to hide this message with code to userChrome.css or elegant.
    This message is displayed for security reasons because a malicious script can switch to full screen mode and take over the entire window without noticing you (i.e. show a fake office).

    I have the feeling that it is injected by one of your modules. Here's my method to track down and clean the bad modules and ad injectors. I know it seems long, but it's not so bad.

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
    • in the Windows "Run" dialog box, type or paste
      firefox.exe "about:addons"

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection.
