Spectrum of HP: left and right click on the touchpad buttons behave oddly

I just bought a spectrum ew HP laptop and the touchpad works well in most parts except for the left and right-click buttons.

Just that they behave like primary and secondary clicks. I checked that they were set to be as such, but it still does not work.

Anything I can do or is it a fault with the laptop itself?

  • key Ctrl, alt and right click on the keyboard won't respond or work

    I work on Window Vista Ultimate (HP Pavilion tx2500 Notebook PC) and my ctrl, unresponsive keys alt and right click. So I can't use ctrl + c ctrl + v (or others) on any of my programs (such as Word or Firefox). I can either use ctr + alt + delete. And right-click on the keyboard button (which is the same as the right click on the mouse button) is not responding or the other.

    I have already tried various things such as:

    1. pressing the combination alt + ctrl + fn
    2. "unplugging" the usb adapter (and even that I am not too sure of doing things)
    3. uninstall the keyboard driver and reboot
    4. restore the computer to factory settings

    Help, please?

    Have you tried a new keyboard?  Connect an external keyboard if it works that indicate your laptop keyboard is broken and requires replacement.  Also just FYI - this is a support forum for Windows 7; not that it is important in this case, but if you have a question related to Windows, find and use the correct forum might be essential to get the advice you need for your operating system.

    Original title: left click not working not not on HP laptop

    On my HP Elitebook 2760p running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, left click on the touchpad button has stopped working.  The right click works, the works of pad, (scrolling and click on) it's just the left click.  It started after the execution of the new update of adobe. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver synaptec. I tried the mouse fast and slow speed. I tried pressing rigid, flexible, in different places. I would try to uninstall the update from Adobe, but it won't allow me.  So I uninstalled Adobe Reader and re-installed. Still nothing. Any suggestions?

    See the link to Adobe to download the removal tool:

  • Right click on the "back" button to see the history? You got to be a joke.

    Every day, it's something new...
    Why the hell see you correspond to remove the arrow on the buttons ' back/forward' that has allowed to look through several pages of previous or next drop VERY PRACTICE? Yes, I am well aware, that you can now achieve through a right-click on the button, but come on, that's just stupid. Nothing of that at all intuitive.
    Stop the deletion of these options. You may want to it a certain way, but that's great for you and you alone. We give users the ability to keep these settings very simple and ridiculous way we want that they.

    You can also hold down the left button of the mouse on the active back or forward button until the list opens.

  • Spectrum HP convertible x 360: right-click (for the context menu) has suddenly stopped working.

    In my brand new laptop right-click suddenly stopped working (for the context menu or any other use), while I was working with Excel 2010. I checked with Word 2010 and then also with Open Office: there is no right click works with any of them, whether Microsoft or not. I spent more than 5 hours looking for a solution, I did a repair of MS Office 2010, I looked for answers in cats - but nothing seems to work. I guess it has something to do with the touchpad - but what? Thank you for any suspicion.

  • How to add left and right margins in the topic?

    Hello

    I use RH10 under the TCS4. I create screen provisions by changing only the existing ones.

    I noticed that there is no margin / space between the border of the subject and the content in the topic inside. When I searched for that in mobile.css, I have not found any reference. When I made a component inspect on Firefox, it stressed default.css which I cannot find in my pod of setting up a project.

    How can I change it? Here is the screenshot of the question that I am referring to:

    Margins_Topics.jpg

    Please notify.

    Anthony

    This is done in the css layout. If you add a padding to div.wTopic you will get the result that you need. Don't forget to subtract any width that add you in the padding from the width of the div.wTopic or the container will become too big.

    The project manager pod displays only currently used css files by themes. You can assign css to a topic in the properties of the section? You should see all the css files in your project directory.

    Kind regards

  • Click left and right touchpad does not work on Satellite L50

    I have a new laptop Satellite L50 CI3. However, it seems there is a problem with the left and right keys on the touchpad.

    Right-click behaves like a left click i.e. it does not open a menu.

    Left click cannot drag and drop, including when you use the scroll bars.

    I reinstalled everything, but nothing has changed. Is this a common problem? Is this likely to a hardware or software problem?

    Hello

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. Have you noticed this problem on there first day of use?
    I mean when you start your laptop for the first time that it has original factory settings and everything should be OK.

    If I just understand that there is some response when you use the touchpad buttons so that you can try is to set all the options of touchpad on default settings.
