touchpad Windows laptop 8 erratic @# $% ^ & *!

Hi I have 2 laptops for Dell Inspirion same model same material. Both at the same time strange have the same key issues. The cursor behaves as if he's stuck in the glue, but it barely moves.  You can swipe your finger across again and again to move a few millimeters.  This can take 20 sweeps of a finger to move half an inch. The touchpad can sometimes go out on its own, but not always. Sometimes sometimes is to restart the computer help does not work. However, the laptop may not question for 6 weeks and then the problem reappears.

The laptop is about 1.5 years old. When it was under warranty Dell used a program called, "Click to Fix" which seemed to fix it, but since I reinstalled Windows 8. Click on repair becomes idle after the end of the support call.

If I plug a USB mouse into the laptop the slider works perfectly. If I disconnect the touchpad mouse fate sometimes is the question.

I've updated the drivers for the laptop including the mouse & keyboard set no problem.

In the Device Manager, select the computer, right click and choose "search the hardware changes.

    HI Margaret

    Because the keyboard is integrated in the housing of the computer laptop, something as simple as the slight vibration when typing can cause the touchpad the cursor or initiate a click, depending on the sensitivity of the touchpad settings.

    You must disable the touchpad when typing. Most modern laptops provide an option or a keyboard shortcut to get there.

    The following keyboard shortcuts have been known to disable the touchpad on different systems. Press and hold down the Fn key and then press F3, F4, F6, F7, F9, or F12 to disable the Touchpad.

    1. press the Windows Key + X to display the System menu.

    2. Select Control Panel.

    3. Select "display by" in "category to large icons or small icons in the upper right corner.

    4. double-click on 'mouse'.

    5. click on the "device settings" tab (tab can be also named "Touchpad, Synaptics, etc.").

    6. click on "settings".

    Instructions specific to disable the touchpad or contact manufacturers of laptop support, read the instructions for your system.

    1. try to change the name of your phone so that your laptop creates a different profile for it. For the most part occurs when you change your hotspot password and it is not updated on your laptop.

    If your familiar with the settings in windows 10. You can go into the wifi settings and remove the profile created for your hotspot and then reconnect and re - enter the password.

    1. Click on the network icon in the lower right of your screen.
    2. Click on network settings.

    4. Under management of known networks, click the network that you want to remove.

  • It does not sync between iOS and windows laptop.

    I just downloaded firefox for iOS and logged into my account from firefox. I did the same thing on my windows laptop 10 and synchronized together. No story appeared. It says that I have not all devices connected to this account of Firefox to synchronize. What's wrong?

    Hello
    I understand that for the moment that history is no synchronization between a Device IOS and office. I'm happy to help you.

    First of all, what measures do you take to see this "You have not all devices connected to this account of Firefox", second, in the settings on the PC sync, is checked for synchronization history?

    For troubleshooting, first try to restart the synchronization by going to the gear icon and logout at the bottom of the menu. Erase cache cookies private then re-launch of the app and the connection.

    Hi vijaysampath, please make sure first that the date, time, and time zone are set correctly on your system. If this does not solve the problem (or it is already set correctly), a possible solution depends on different factors:

  • How do I share all my music files and movie between my iMac, two iPads, my Apple Tv and my computer windows laptop (I know, a strange out)

    I have a Mac as my main computer, a laptop running windows 8.1 as my secondary (portable) backup, my wife has an IPad, I have an IPad, and we have Apple TV connected to our tv room. How can I go on the sharing of multimedia files (music and film) between all my devices? I use ITunes on my i Mac and Windows laptop to share media, but I would like to have a central repository for all media files and access them from all of my devices.

    That is what iCloud is for. Of course, you need an account iCloud with enough storage to hold all your files.

  • iPod Classic 80 GB is recognized in the library itunes, but will not be synchronized on my new windows laptop 10?

    My iPod Classic 80 GB from 2009 is recognized on my iTunes library when I plug it in, but it does not sync?  I have a new windows laptop 10.  What can I do?

    If you want to synchronize your iTunes music library (from computer, iPod) automatically when you connect the iPod, you need to implement that.  By default, it is set up for manual loading.  I can explain this process.  However, if your iPod currently has all your songs and iTunes library to your new computer laptop does not work, you should not set up automatic synchronization because you will lose all the songs on the iPod.  Your current situation is not clear.  Please specify what you ask the subject.
