Use the Magic Trackpad with Mac OSX Lion emulation

I'm working on an Asus n71jq laptop running Windows 7. Recently, I've found VMware Workstation 8 and am currently emulate Mac OS x 10.7. What I found is that my notebook computer trackpad has hamper my experience (between spaces and back flip in the pages in safari) and so, I noticed that mac had the ability to hook up with an Apple Magic Trackpad.

I bought an Apple Magic Trackpad and started to sync it with my Mac OSx comments lion. It recognizes the pad and arrives at the stage of establishing a connection, but is still unable to pair, it is said. Then, when he said that the mac comes up with a pop up that says the trackpad wants to pair, but even if I click it nothing happens. Nothing seems to work.

So in essense, I was wondering if VMware has the ability to sync with a Magic Trackpad, if I'm emulating a Mac OS x guest.

I scoured internet for anyone else having this problem but I seem to be alone in this problem.

Thank you

  • Use the Magic Trackpad to Bypass built in Trackpad

    Genius diagnosed bad trackpad in my MacBook 2012. Rather than sending repair ($310), I bought Magic Trackpad 2 to work around the problem. Engineering directed me to go to the preference of accessibility, and then click "Ignore built in mouse or trackpad when wireless trackpad is present." I've had that happen and that you can use Magic Trackpad 2 to point and click HOWEVER no other features are available. I can't tap, pinch, rotate, etc. When I click on Preferences of the Magic Trackpad 2, I see a screen indicating that the trackpad prefs are disabled, with no way to turn on the features of the Magic Trackpad 2. Anyone know how I can release all the Magic Trackpad 2 features while ignoring the built in trackpad?

    As long as the built-in trackpad is not interfering with your comments in a way (for example causing unwanted movements of the cursor) I would have thought you could disable 'ignore' and just use the external trackpad.

  • The Magic Trackpad stopped working properly after the upgrade

    Hello. I tried to solve a problem with my magic trackpad for two weeks now, and I'm running out of ideas, so I thought I'd see if anyone has any. I have a Macbook Pro 2011 who bought second-hand, and the trackpad has never worked properly in this respect, he was always nervous. Fortunately, I wanted to use my magic trackpad with her anyway and have done so since then. I had problems over the years where he selects or done some weird things, but I just had to press the power button / stop, then esc to get back to work. However, now, I have a serious question that I can't solve since I've upgraded to the latest version of El Capitan.

    Now the magic trackpad and the laptop trackpad work very well at the start, but when my Mac wakes up from sleep, I can no longer tap or 'left click' on the magic trackpad, or the built-in trackpad. I can't select the programs or click on anything whatsoever. The only way to get my mac works again is to switch off the magic trackpad, and that integrated then starts working again. I can't simply turn the other back a new if, it does the same thing again until I turn it off.

    I tried the following and had no change:

    -Removal of all bluetooth devices and add the trackpad again

    -Deleting files plist bluetooth

    -Reset the SMC

    -Reset the PRAM

    -Turn off bluetooth devices in addition to the macbook

    -Disconnect the magsafe adapter

    Someone at - it any other suggestions?

    Thanks in advance

  • Mac OSX Lion in ESX 5.1 does not start

    Hello

    I have a virtual machine to work in "VMWare Workstation 8.x" with Mac OSX Lion (I corrected my computer to do).

    I converted this virtual machine with VMWare Converter Standalone 5.1.x in vSphere ESX 5.1 and, after the successful conversion, I properly configure the type of operating system like Mac OS Lion.

    In ESX, the virtual machine starts, but stuck with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel of progress. So my questions are:

    • Do you have advice on how to fix this?
    • How to enter in "verbose" mode in vSphere? I tried to delay the start and be ready to press the two 'CTRL + v' or 'WIN + v' or 'ALT + v', but nothing has worked.

    Thank you!

    Eddie C.

    The problem here is that you violate Apple's EULA, no one here will be able to help since it is breaking this rules of communities.

    To virtualize OS x, you must run on Apple hardware.

  • The Magic Trackpad 2 will not pair correctly with a Mac Mini

    I just bought a 2014 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5, Mac Mini and the Magic Trackpad 2 but I can't match the trackpad. When I connect the trackpad by using the usb cable, the functions of a mouse, but the bluetooth does not. I caught a third party mouse, who plugged, unplugged the trackpad and was able to get the pair via bluetooth; However, when I open the Trackpad settings, it says that it cannot find the trackpads. I would obviously like to be able to configure the trackpad and see how much load is on it, but I can't do it without the paired properly.

    Are you running at El Capitan (OS X 10.11.2)?  Which is necessary for all the features of the new mouse and trackpad.

  • No drivers on the HP PhotoSmart C4580 for Mac OSX Lion site

    I have a Photosmart C4580. I upgraded my Mac OSX Lion book about 6 months ago. Reinstalled the printer software and had no problems. It is up to AT & T Uverse sent me a new gateway/modem. I have of course with the new wireless modem get the printer connected to the network. I couldn't get this to work so I decided to uninstall and reinstall the printer. When I go to the HP website there are no drivers for this printer for Mac OSX. I'm not a tech savvy person, btw. Thank you.

    It seems that you have installed the printer twice and there is some sort of bug with the printer 'offline '. I would just move forward a delete it if everything works as it should with the new printer 'lazy '.

  • Using a catalog network stored with Mac OSX

    Hi all.

    I use Photoshop elements on Mac OSX Lion mountain 11 and you want to store my catalog on a local network drive (FreeNAS).  I met a lot of difficulties while he was trying to do.  Then I noticed in the help of organizing elements, under the section 'Repair catalogue', the following: "Note: (Mac OS) you can not access the present catalog on a network drive."

    Is it true. or if anyone has found a solution to the problem?

    Thank you!

    -John

    Yes, it is true, unfortunately. You can store a catalog and images on a removable disk, but not a network drive.

  • The Magic Trackpad 2 first plan window Focus problem

    I had the strangest question with my Magic Trackpad 2 on El Capitan (10.11.3.) When I am in the window of one application and tap/click to another application window, application of the new window comes to the foreground, but the old app is still under discussion. So if I try a keypad at this stage or type text, is what actually performing in the old app and not the new foreground application.

    For example, suppose that I open Safari and TextEdit and I am browsing a page in Safari. 50% of the time if I use my Magic Trackpad 2 to tap or click on in the document window empty TextEdit of Safari, TextEdit window will come in the home of prominent and Safari will be the background window, but if I start typing the text or press CMD - N to a new document, it will operate on Safari instead of TextEdit. This is just one example - literally, it happens with any application.

    I messed with all: accessibility for the Trackpad, trackpad settings, settings etc. No background apps or mouse extension installed applications. Tried both wireless and connected via cable to the lightning. Magic Mouse does not appear to have this problem, Trackpad 2 only.

    Anyone else having this problem? It drives me crazy and makes use of the Magic Trackpad 2 on OS X pretty useless.

    Hey it re-registers,

    I understand that you experience some problems with your selection of Magic Trackpad 2 and window to El Capitan. I would like to as allows you to test this behavior in Mode safe mode to see if the problem is still present:

    Install a new virtual machine to run a MAC OSX Lion

    Copied on the Mac to install OS X Lion.app in the data store.

    Started the VM which seems ok. The apple screen is popping up and spinning CD is running.

    It ends there, with no further action.

    Also tried on by converting the dmg to iso-> no luck

    Any idea is welcome.

    To legally install this OS in a virtual machine, the underlying hardware that ESXi is installed on must be Apple.

  • The Magic Trackpad 2 disconnects sleep

    Recently, I buy the Magic Trackpad 2 to use with my iMac.  Whenever my computer goes to sleep the trackpad disconnects and I have to turn it off and turn it on back to connect.  The battery does not seem to be the problem - is 98%.

    Does anyone else have this problem?  Is there a solution?

    Don't know if you saw this Apple document but it is interesting to look at.   You wouldn't believe some harmless situations that may affect your devices.   I hope that something he will put you on the right track.
