• Tecra A11 - how to change the sensitivity of the touchpad?

  Our company has recently bought some Tecra A-11 to replace some of the old Pros of Satellite.

Sometimes you just type in a place and not notice while other times it will select and remove chunks of text without noticing your.

  We can lower the sensitivity or what options do we eliminate this problem.

• Satellite P300 - how to set the sensitivity of the touchpad?

  I read all the forums without success. Is it possible to set the sensitivity of the touchpad? I went into the control panel and clicked by the mouse settings, but there is no 'Advanced' or 'Synaptics' tabs to adjust. For the moment, I use the FN + F9 to turn off the touch pad altogether, however, I hope that it is a short-term solution. Thanks for any response.

  If the Synaptics driver is preinstalled on your laptop, you can find advanced settings HERE.
  When you open the properties of the last option is the sensitivity.

• Windows 7, sensitivity of the touchpad, Sony VAIO

  I had Windows Vista Home Premium installed on my Sony VAIO PCG-5KSP laptop.

  It's never happened before, but after I installed Windows 7 the sensitivity of the touchpad went through the roof. Constantly, the cursor will be "clicked" by my finger or a wrist and move to where the mouse is located while I type.

  It's already happened twice while typing this! I've already tried looking for TouchPad and looked under control panel > mouse >

  There is no properties/settings tab with sensitivity. Under properties is only shows general, driver details, and if I click on change settings there again only once the general tabs, pilot and detail.

  Where can I change the sensitivity of the stupid touchpad?

  It's the answer - I installed Synaptics for Vista, even though I have Windows 7 - they work well together.  You can then disable your touchpad and we a bluetooth mouse and the problem is solved!  It's great.

  Thanks for posting in Microsoft Communities. The problem description, I understand that you want to change the sensitivity of the touchpad. Follow these steps and check:

  (a) open the Control Panel.

  (b) double-click the icon named "mouse". The 'mouse properties' window opens. Go to the tab "device settings". Click the button settings, Properties.

  (c) consider the left panel of the 'Properties' window and expand the option 'sensitivity. ' Click on the option 'touch sensitivity. '

  (d) reduce the tactile sensitivity in moving the slider to the right, to the label of "heavy touch. Experiment with different levels of sensitivity until find you one suited to your needs.

  (e) click on 'OK'.

  I hope this helps. Let us know if you need more assistance.

• How to set the sensitivity of the touchpad?

  I have problems with my cursor. It jumps randomly from line to line as I type. I was told that it is because I am brushing on the keyboard as I type. If that is correct, how can I do the less sensitive key?

  Thank you

  There are usually options to make it less sensitive, but these options are provided by the company that made the touchpad.  Dell computers used to put options in mouse Options in Control Panel.  Toshiba computers have a special application of Toshiba to set the sensitivity.  Acer and Asus usually do it a little differently.

  So you will want to first check your control panel under mouse options.  If you don't see touchpad settings, contact the manufacturer that built - they'll know where they put their options.

  Or a low tech solution: put a card on the touchpad.

• How can I change the sensitivity of the touchpad on my laptop Windows 8 Samsung series 3?

  I can't find a setting that allows me to adjust the touchpad sensitivity.  I can pinch to zoom in with ease, but I can't two fingers scrolling unless I dig my nails into the protector with strength.  And, even then, it works sometimes.

  Settings-> Imput gives me only option to turn the touchpad on or off.

  Control Panel-> hardware and sound-> Synaptics TouchPad V7.5 gives me options to set the speed and to turn on or off certain functions of drag.

  Control Panel-> currencies and printers-> mouse gives me left - and right handed options, double-click speed options, pointer options, wheel (which does not have this computer) options, etc.

  Where else is there to look at?  Help!  Thank you!  :)

• HP Pavilion 17-e-116dx - cannot disable the touchpad

  Operating Windows 8.1.  I'm trying to disable the touchpad on the computer I just bought.  I normally use an external mouse, but even without that, the touchpad is uncomfortable when I type, causing the paper up and down on the screen.  I understand the touchpad doesn't have the feature of plays twice in the corner to turn it off, but there must be a way to avoid having my documents move wherever.   Is badly in need of help!

  Hello

  Touchpads to usually have a custom utility installed by the computer manufacturer for the specific model of laptop.

  Access to this utility is usually an extra tab added to the mouse settings in the control panel and some manufacturers add a utility in Control Panel distinct touchpad.

  If you upgraded to Windows 7, this utility may not have migrated to Windows 8.

  See the documentation on how to reinstall the utility or the manufacturers support contact information.

• Portege R600 - the touchpad cursor is out of control

  I have problems with the touchpad on a Portégé R600 running Windows 7.
  The cursor is out of control.

  When I'm scrolling a page and you have to push the slider on the page, the screen scrolls down out of control.
  Sometimes I can fix it up by double tapping the touchpad, but also often, it does not work.

  When I type the cursor will jump to another area of the page and insert the typing it.
  The combination of these problems sometimes makes the laptop almost unusable.

  I noted that several forum users have brought up the variations of this problem, but received no response.

  Anyone can shed light on how to fix?

  Hello

  I think that it s a temporal question regarding the sensitivity of the touchpad settings and the Microsoft windows OS.

  First, you must change the settings for the touchpad as PalmCheck sensitivity and sensitivity to touch.
  You can do this in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab-> settings the touchpad device settings

  In addition, you must make sure that the operating system is clean and that some background process don't affect the functionality of the touchpad. In many cases the touchpad don't work properly because of system overhead.
  Clean the registry with CCleaner, don't disable some no necessary process in msconfig and at least update the touchpad drivers.

• Functionality of scrolling on the touchpad does not work... help!

  I have an Inspiron 1525, just the other day that the functionality of the touchpad scroll has stopped working.  I tried to look in the control panel to find an option to turn "scroll" back on, I found nothing.  I am running Windows Vista. Any suggestions on how to turn "scroll" back on?

  Hello

  Try the system restore before you did it again at:

  How to make a Vista system restore
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76905-System-Restore-how.html
  -------------------------------------------------------

  If necessary:

  Control Panel - mouse - look for the TouchPad settings - mine is on the settings of the device and your own tab
  may be different (it is NOT the Scrollings tab which is for the mouse). On some, you can activate
  and disable scrolling and/or define the size of the area and the sensitivity of the touchpad.

  Some will have a TouchPad progam/control icon in the Notification area near the clock - low
  right.

  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.

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

  If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)

  Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
  Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), 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.

  Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.

  Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.
