  • Scrolling, pinch and zoom does not work in touchpad DM4-2015dx

    I did a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit edition on my new laptop HP Pavilion DM4-2015dx from Best Buy. I was able to find the drivers for all devices except the touchpad. Currently, the touchpad functionality is limited to basic operations. I can't scroll, pinch zoom, etc. I tried the latest drivers of Synaptics Touchpad HP and Synaptics site without a bit of luck. The touchpad is simply recognized as generic "Standard Pointing Device."

    When I go into deivce prperties for the touchpad I see only the options for assignment of the buttons. There is no option to activate the rollers vertical or horizontal, pinch zoom, etc. Help, please!

    OK, so I found what the problem was. Initially, I assumed that the touchpad is a Synaptics touchpad. It is NOT the case. The touchpad is "Alps pointing device". The drivers installed with HP Pavilion DM4-2015dx out of the box are dated 18/02/2011 version 7.206.1717.117 as Alps pointing device. These particular drivers were not found on the HP website. However, there are similar drivers of 2010 that work very well. Here is a link:

    Alps Pointing - device Driver (2 channels)

    Without the right drivers you will also find expreince the cursor jump effect where the cursor will jump at random on the screen locations as you type. It has nothing to do with the user touching the touchpad. It's just that the generic touchpad Windows drivers are NOT compatible with the Alps touchpad.

    A final word for HP. PLEASE post all drivers for HP Pavilion DM4-2015dx on your Internet site, as well as ALL the HP utility.

  • Two fingers to scroll and Pinch to Zoom do not work

    Hello. I bought a brand new HP 4-1115dx this morning, and the two fingers to scroll/sleeve to zoom stopped working completely after 15 minutes of use.

    I have twice now uninstalled the driver and re installed from site Web from HP, currently using v16.2.17.0 latest (available for my device).  I went into the settings of the Clickpad, provided two fingers to scroll and pinch to zoom are both checked and entered in the settings/transmission for each of these items and provided all the appropriate scroll options would be checked.  I also watched the synaptics on the toolbar icon, and 'disable gestures' is NOT checked.

    When I turned on the computer for the first time, twofinger scroll and pinch to zoom in when selected by default and "scrolling" (which is a right mouse pad finger scrolling was NOT selected by default.  15 minutes after turning on the new device, I ticked 'scrolling' to see if I liked the right side of the touchpad scrolling better.  I have since failed to get the two fingers to scroll / pinch to zoom out (I've several times switched on / two fingers to scroll and the a finger right side touchpad "scroll".)

    Help, please!  This isn't the end of the world for me, but a feature that does not work after 15 of owning a product makes me nervous for other features do not down the road!

    Thank you

    Steve1234321,

    It could be a problem with the synaptic software.

    Go to control panel and uninstall the synaptic program.

    Start-> Control Panel Type-> uninstaller-> right click and uninstall synaptic.

    If you restart, go ahead.

    Now lift the Recovery Manager

    Go to start-> type of recovery

    You should see the Recovery Manager in the list

    Open the Recovery Manager, and then click on software and driver re install

    Go through the list and find synaptic and reinstall.

    It is said synaptic driver, but the program is with the driver.

    By clicking on the White Star congratulations on the left is a way of saying thanks!

    I would like to know how everything goes.

    Nice day.

  • When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works.

    When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works. Have reinstalled icloud a lot of time and know that the add-in does not show up in OUTLOOK.  Help

    I was pulling my hair re the incompatibility of iCloud and Outlook of Office 365 2016.  I finally got things to work on three of my computers - which are on the latest version of Windows 10.

    The steps that worked for me:

    (1) uninstall the plugin iCloud (what version you have); the uninstall may fail but if so don't worry as step 3 below overlays some iCloud plugin version you have installed

    (2) open the Control Panel, uninstall, change/repair Office 365; Select fast repair

    (3) reinstall iCloud plugin (version 5.1), then restart the system by following the instructions

    (4) after the reboot, plug in iCloud application Apple ID and password; Make sure that you enter your apple with the suffix icloud.com ID (e.g., [email protected])

    (5) check the iCloud options to your will (e.g., photo synch, synchronization of bookmarks, sync mail/calendar, etc.)

    (6) check apply it, leave the work plugin iCloud for a minute, when he finishes, check the closing

    (7) open Outlook 2016 and check your calendar or contacts or anything that you indicated in step 5, that you want to synchronize with iCloud.com

    I hope it works for you!

    Hi asian1955,

    Have you tried to download Windows Live from here: http://explore.live.com/windows-live-essentials?os=other this is the latest version of Windows Live. Once you start to install, simply install the components you want, there is no need to install anything if you do not need.

    Hi Marvin,.

    Thank you for the quick update.

    Yes, I understand your question. However, if the programs worked with an earlier version of Windows, they can work with Windows or Windows 10 8.1 if you install programs in compatibility mode. If you access the executable file (.exe) for the game, I suggest you follow the steps provided below:

    Step 1: Download and save programs on the desktop.

    Step 2: Install the programs in compatibility mode.

    • Right click on the .exe file and click Properties.
    • Go to the compatibility tab.
    • Check the box for run this program in compatibility mode for:
    • In the list of operating systems, select Windows Vista (or any other compatible OS) .
    • Click OK.
    • Double-click the executable file to install the program and follow the instructions on the screen.
    • Restart your computer.

  • Pinch and Zoom does not not Android V26

    Hello

    I am currently a folio of construction and hoping to take advantage of the new support of pdf to V26 (for Android tablets). I updated the tools, folio Builder and content viewer Adobe to V26. I downloaded successfully three articles with pdf format selected. The first article works fine (I can pinch and zoom in). The second and third items however do not pinch and zoom. I double checked my settings and even reloaded these two articles, and they do not always work. I'm doing something wrong?

    Unfortunately, pinch zoom on Android & PDF does not work at the moment, when the article is set to Swipe Horizontal only. In addition, pinch zoom & PDF does not work for items in scroll smoothly on Android or iOS.
