Sierra + Magic Trackpad 2 = Force click with a single finger no longer works

Since the upgrade to Sierra, did someone else, difficulties with the Magic Trackpad 2 and using the force click to pull up definitions? If I turn it back to "tap with three fingers," it works, but is not the "click with one finger. In fact, I'm not sure I can get this intermediate response click at any point that used to be present in El Capitan.

Hey Lonnie Warpup,.

If I understand correctly, you are using macOS Sierra and you try to use the power of touch, but it does not perform this action.
I would recommend that you read these articles, they explain if your device supports the Force Touch, with a setting to enable and disable the Force Touch and how to set the sensitivity and how to turn the Look up feature words.

The Magic Trackpad and Magic Trackpad 2 supports all available on laptops Apple trackpad gestures.

Sierra macOS: use a trackpad Apple wireless

  1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
  2. Click Trackpad.
  3. Click on the tab 'Point & Click '.
  4. Find "Click pressure" and adjust the slider according to your preferences. Note that the sound of the click of Exchange with the click pressure adjustment.

To turn off the click Force function, uncheck the box 'Force Click and haptic feedback'. This will disable the functionality described in the Trackpad preferences pane.

With the help of a touchscreen trackpad Force - Apple Support

  • Look up a word: CTRL-click on the word or phrase (in some applications, you may need to select all first), then select find from the context menu. Or type the word or the sentence with three fingers (if the gesture is selected in the Préférences Trackpad).

    If your trackpad supports force by one click, you can set the gesture of looking up to use it instead of a tap. (To force the click, press firmly until you hear a click deep.)

  • Magic Trackpad 2 unwanted clicks

    My Magic Trackpad 2 is almost unusable because of the unwanted clicks. I ' Tap to click on ' disabled, 'Secondary click' disabled, 'Force' disabled, and 'Click' value 'business '. However, as I lightly drag my finger on the trackpad, it clicks occasionally. Similarly, click-and - drag is almost impossible, because even if I am dragging, with the thumb pressing down to the click and the slippery finger for the movement, the trackpad to slam just yet without waking up my thumb. Well, sometimes simple clicks (actual pressing down) turn into double-tap-, I can hear the trackpad rapidly clicking twice despite me only once.

    Does anyone have an idea what can happen and how to remedy? I don't think that the camera is broken, because it's fairly new.

    It was just beautiful in yosemite please give a solution.

    Please read this message before doing anything.

    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

    Step 1

    The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is localized to your user account.

    Select the feedback connections* and log in as a guest. Do not use the Safari connection only 'user comments' created by 'find my Mac '.

    While signed in as a guest, you will have access to your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you use them for the first time. Do not be alarmed by this behavior; It's normal. If you need any password or other personal information in order to complete the test, save, print, or write them before you start.

    Test while signed in as a guest. You have to re-create your trackpad settings. Same problem?

    After testing, log on to the guest account and in your own account, disable it if you wish. The files that you created in the guest account will be automatically deleted when you log out of it.

    * Note: If you have enabled 'find my Mac' or FileVault, then you cannot activate the guest account. The login 'User comments' created by 'Find my Mac' is not the same. Create a new account to test and delete it, including his home folder, after testing.

    Step 2

    The goal of this step is to determine if the problem is caused by changes in the system of third party that load automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

    Please take this step regardless of the results of step 1.

    Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    The login screen is displayed even if you normally connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

    Test in safe mode. Same problem?

    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of steps 1 and 2.

    =========

    If necessary:

    It's probably the pilots who are responsible and who may not really be later or they need to be
    re-installed anyway. The best way is to manually review using the methods below.

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek High
    Audio definition (this is an example and you can have an other name/maker).

    Write the description and the model double click on it - tab drivers - write down
    Version. Now click on update drivers who cannot do anything as MS is far behind certifying
    drivers. Then CLICK RIGHT on it and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver
    stack.

    You can have the default windows or a former certified pilot and it's all or part of the
    issue.

    Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of the system and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to
    where you put - right-click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN-

    Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often
    and then install the latest version. Restart and check after each test, not
    rare to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just the version make sure you
    installed shows upward on the tab of the driver.

    Go to the site of the manufacturer of the device, and then search for the even more recent drivers and install repeat
    operating mode. Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - click on - RUN AS
    ADMIN - Reboot

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    My code to share a file is, in objective-C, where the variable URL is a URL, the path to a local file

    @try {
       
                UIViewController * controler = [[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:0] rootViewController];
               
                UIActivityViewController *activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:@[URL] applicationActivities:nil];
                //activityVC.excludedActivityTypes = @[UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll]; //or whichever you don't need
               
               
                UIPopoverController *popup = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:activityVC];
                [popup presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(0,0,0,0) inView:controler.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
            }
            @catch (NSException *exception) {
                DISPATCH_STATUS_EVENT(context,"DEBUG_TRACE", (const uint8_t*) [exception.reason UTF8String]);
            }
    

    I have this error in execution: *-[__NSPlaceholderArray initWithObjects:count:]: attempt to insert nil objects [0] object

    UIPopoverController is obsolete now, I triied to update my code, as a result of this http://www.goxuni.com/672368-adding-a-share-button-to-an-objective-c-ios-app/

    And the result is:

    @try {
                UIViewController * controler = [[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:0] rootViewController];
                
                
                NSArray *activityItems = @[URL];

                activityViewControntroller.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
                if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad)

                    activityViewControntroller.popoverPresentationController.sourceRect = CGRectMake(controler.view.bounds.size.width/2, controler.view.bounds.size.height/4, 0, 0);
                }
                [controler.self presentViewController:activityViewControntroller animated:true completion:nil];

                DISPATCH_STATUS_EVENT(context,"DEBUG_TRACE", (const uint8_t*) [exception.reason UTF8String]);
            }
    

    The error is the same: *-[__NSPlaceholderArray initWithObjects:count:]: attempt to insert nil objects [0] object

    I really don't understand why it worked before, and now with new AIR SDK, Xcode new and new iOS SDK, it does not work.

    That's Ok with the last AIR 22 SDK

  • Right click on my mouse button no longer works

    My operating system is Windows XP and I have a Dell PC. It seems that the right click stopped working after the latest windows update. Not sure about this, but it did not work and I can not understand how to get the menu to appear on anything (Web page, microsoft office product etc.). I went on the web to try to find a solution and downloaded a solution that doesn't seem to work. Can anyone offer any suggestions? I really need because I have many projects to come and do not have a right-click option is a big hindrance. using the shortcut method does not work for everything.

    Hello

    1. What is the number of KB updates that are at the origin of the problem?

    2 have. what troubleshooting steps you tried to solve the problem?

    3. do you have problems with a right-click on applications?

    You can attach the mouse on another computer running Windows XP and see if the same problem still occurs.

    I suggest that you check the number of KB updates that have been installed recently.

    There is no history of update for Windows XP; but you can see what updates you have installed on your computer by clicking on add or remove programs in Control Panel.

    To see what updates you have installed on a Windows XP-based computer, you must go through a different process.

    (a) go to the start menu in the lower left corner.

    (b) choose Control Panel from the menu.

    (c) find the icon Add / Remove programs and double click it to open it.

    (d) a list of the installed programs. To see Windows updates put a check mark in the Show updatescheck box.

    (e) now, you will see also all the updates that are on your computer.

    Please provide information on the update installed that could be causing the problem so that we can better help you.

  • Double-click to open an item no longer works

    I realized, click items as follows - double-click to open an item from the file Explorer is no more work.

    Because I don't like the single-click mode, whenever I have a new PC XP, I switch, double-click mode.
    And then double-click mode that allows to work as I wanted, but now I do not see any difference between the single-click mode and double-click mode.
    I see the underline on folder tree control item when mouse cursor hovers over that folder and click once to develop even a folder, double-click mode.

    -Remember you proceed with recent computer between the calendar changes when things worked fine and now?
     
    There is no such release hotfix from Microsoft.
     
    Method 1: Check if the function of the mouse buttons were reversed.
     
    See the following article to do the same thing:
     
    Method 2: A scan of your computer to check if the problem occurs due to any virus or malware.
     
    Method 3: Run the following command and check if it helps.
     
    a. click Start> run> type regsvr32 /i shell32.dll , and then click OK.

    You should receive a message that the dll was registered successfully.
  • Firefox Aurora - middle-click on the context menu no longer work correctly

    Recently, after one of the Aurora updates, Middle-click has stopped working properly for context menus. For example click View Image open above the image in a new tab. Now it just opens it in the same tab, as if it were a normal left click. It's very annoying.

    OK, I found the cause. It's an add-on called Omnibar and indeed I got to install it on my two auroras on PC at home and my laptop at work. Now it's time to contact the developer of the add-on and wait for an update.

  • CS5 vs CS3 CTRL-drag with the curves layer no longer works?

    I recently moved from Photoshop CS3 to CS5 on the PC. When I create or use a layer of curves in CS3, if I CTRL-click on the image, it adds the curve points to the value of the image and if I CTRL-drag on the image, it would show a cursor move along the curve based on the values of the image. Both very useful. Doesn't seem to work in PS CS5. Am I missing something?


    Thank you

    Try clicking on the small hand icon in the upper left corner of the dialog box curves CS5 - then you get a pipette for your cursor and you run this over the image, you will see the small sphere up and down the diagonal line in curves. To place a point on the RGB composite curve, just click. To place a point on the 3 R, G and B curves you Ctrl + Shift + click.

  • href with scroll (0,0) no longer works!

    Until the update to V36.01, I used scroll (0,0) in a href as a link to the top of the page - which worked well. It does more for me. Any ideas?

    Do you mean like this:

    <a href="javascript:scroll(0,0)">To Top</a>
    

    It seems that this should always be supported by DND: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Window/scroll

    Does make a difference if you use:

    <a href="javascript:window.scroll(0,0)">To Top</a>
    

    or to separate the HTML code of your event handler:

    <a href="#" onclick="window.scroll(0,0); return false;">To Top</a>
