My cat has turned off the touchpad on my laptop. How do I turn it back on?

He jumped on the keyboard and turns off the touchpad.  He has done it before and I was somehow able to put on the.  I forgot how.  I now use mouse and don't like it.

Fantastic!  I finally looked more carefully the signs/pictures on the keys of the laptop, and of course he was there.  I was beginning to think that this kitten was smarter than I am.  (it is probably still) He knew how to turn off twice and I couldn't turn it back this time.  Now I see how easily it turns off when he walks on the keyboard.  Thank you very much.  Maureen

    Hello world

    For some reason, my CC (20141) icon has disappeared off the coast of my office.

    If you go to control panel > programs and features is it recognized as installed there?

    It normally should appear in your Start Menu. You may need to use this uninstaller: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

  • How can I disable the touchpad on my laptop Pavilion dv4155cl?

    I have a Pavilion laptop dv4155cl and HATE the touchpad, mainly because when you type on the keyboard, the keypad is just under my Palm of the right hand, and it hinders so try to type as the guard cushion see my Palm by tapping the touchpad, and mess substance upward. My old dv1000 was a dedicated switch just above the touchpad to turn, but this one isn't, and since I use a mouse exclusively in any case, I would just turn off the internal touchpad but don't know how? I tried to uninstall through Control Panel, but whenever I restart the computer Windows sees it as new hardware and reinstall... Can someone tell me please how to disable it without having to tear the thing apart and unplugging it physically?

    BTW, I am running Win XP Home Edition SP3

    Well, since I messed with it fo the day I managed to solve this myself :-) Here's what I did. First I went into the control panel and checked the properties of the mouse, I discovered that there are 3 displayed here, TWO who registered as a HID-Compliant mouse and the 3rd like PS2 Mouse. In reviewing the properties of each, I've found that BOTH HID devices had the ability to be either be enabled or disabled, and by disabling each of them in turn, I discovered that my USB mouse is turned off and the other turned off something else but neither off the touchpad, this left ONLY the PS2 Mouse to be the touchpad... so I looked at its properties and could find NO WAY within its property to disable tabs your device, then I noticed it's file of the pilot was very old, the way back in 201 actually, so I decided to try to update the driver, I have DID in selecting the automatic update, which was the recommended choice, after small time it found and installed a driver Alps dated in 2005 and he then told me he had to restart to the pilot would be usable. After that, I looked in the propertieds Alps & on one tab named others, there is a selection that says use Touchpad & PS2 Mouse, then when I unchecked this selection, the touchpad is now disabled and my USB mouse still works perfectly... Exactly what I wanteed. Of course, reselect this question in properties reactivates the touchpad, it gives me a convenient way to enable or disable the internal touchpd at will, so KUDOS to me... :-)
