Re: magic trackpad buggy
Interesting. I'd highly recommend it. I use it every day with my Mac Mini and I know,at least, eight people that immediately come to mind who are also using it without any problems. It's simply an awesome little device. I can't account to the problems you are having, but please don't generalize your issues into an everyone should stay away from it matter. Are you sure you are connecting it properly through Bluetooth settings? Take Care John D.

Re: magic trackpad buggy
that's strange as I've had mine since getting my mac and absolutely find it invaluable, especially for using Safari. I definitely wouldn't advise people to stay away from it. What sorts of specific problems are you having with it? I have been just using regular batteries in mine, for example and haven't had trouble with them running out that often. Once the track pad was paired with the mac, it stayed paired, even after quite a while. The only time I have trouble with connections is when the batteries are low on charge, and even then the computer tells me the track pad needs batteries..

Re: more updates on magic trackpad issue
You wouldn't use it over a keyboard. I have a USB keyboard I use with the Mini. From my understanding, you can do the VoiceOver gestures with the Magic Mouse.

Re: magic trackpad not working
This happens to me on occasion. The solution is to turn the trackpad off (disconnect) in the BlueTooth menu, and then turn it back on (connect).

Deleting in a list using Magic Trackpad

Magic Trackpad: I'm a convert!
Hi all OK, I have to admit it. Although I really find the trackpad on the MacBook Pro a bit of a pain because it gets in my way when typing, it's too small, and so it goes on. Since Lynne bought us a couple of Magic Trackpads about 2 or 3 weeks back, I now can't quite believe I ever managed to live without this little tablet. It makes reading and interacting with websites a total breeze, and it goes quite some way towards eliminating the need for keys. obviously not if there's editing to do, but for genera reading it's super duper! I have to admit that I even use a Blue Tooth keyboard now with our MacBooks and prefer to use the machine that way rather than have the MBP sitting on my lap taking up space. It's just so much more convenient. How did we ever live without these boxes of magic?

Re: Magic Trackpad: I'm a convert!
Gordon, I totally agree. I own a Macbook and a iMac. I tend to use my iMac more, as like you say the trackpad on the Macbook just gets in the way sometimes when typing. I also prefer the bigger keys and number pad on my iMac. Then there is the magic trackpad, makes life so much easier. Chris On 4 Aug 2011, at 07:30, Gordon Smith wrote: Hi all OK, I have to admit it.

Re: Magic Trackpad: I'm a convert!
Hi Chris I'm contemplating an iMac actually, although I confess the prices are a bit steep. There definitely are advantages though, and most of the time I use a Blue Tooth keyboard on the MacBook Pros. I just prefer to sit with the keyboard on my lap rather than the full machine. But yes, the TRackpad is excellent I just need to figure out how the heck you disable the internal one while keeping the Magic rack pad active. BTW I seem to have turned on the screen curtain somehow and I can't remember how to turn it back off. Any thoughts? Gordon On 4 Aug 2011, at 08:03, Chris Moore wrote: Gordon, I totally agree.

Re: Magic Trackpad: I'm a convert!
I wish somebody would do a podcast or some sort of write up with examples on the trackpad and web surfing. I guess I'm just not the creative type because, while I understand the use of the touch surface on the Ipad and how it can give direct access to different areas on the page faster than using a keyboard in IOS, I just don't seem to be getting it with the magic trackpad. Since several people have seen the light on this front, so to speak, it is clear I'm missing the point here.

Magic Trackpad; [Revisited]
Hello everybody Firstly may I thank those who have written to me privately expressing good wishes for Gordon's recovery. He's home now and resting for the most part having lost quite a bit of blood. Anyway, on to the reason for writing, hence the subject line. Yesterday we received the two Magic Trackpad units I ordered earlier in the week. I haven't opened them as yet, I wanted to give Gordon the opportunity. But I thought I'd write first and ask those who do have these devices whether there are any pitfalls; and what's the first thing you need to do to get them connected. I'm also wondering whether there is a way of disabling the internal trackpad on a MacBook Pro, and whether in fact those who have used both would think there is any advantage to using the Magic Trackpad rather than the internal one on the machine itself. If not, maybe we'll be better off with the Trackpads on two of our Mac Minis instead. In fact, one of them is destined for a Mac Mini which, of course, doesn't come equipped with one by default.

Magic Trackpad
Hello everybodyh I have a question as we are expecting a pair of Magic Trackpads soon. Forgive my ignorance; I'n not a full--tile Voiceover user. When you read web pages with the Trackpad do you have to turn on Trackpad Commander on the Mac? Or does VoiceOver somehow detect the website and just work without it? Where can I find a list of web-related gestures for VoiceOver? I'd like to see Gordon get his head around this at last because he's more or less all keyboard but in order to teach he'll need to know how to use the Trackpad properly.

Re: Magic Trackpad
2 trackpads, that's one for each hand, neat! smile. Voiceover automatically detects what situation your computer is in, that is to say if a web page is loaded, if you're working with a Word Processor etc thus adjusts the available gestures on the Magic Trackpad accordingly.

However, you can add your own gestures by going to VoiceOver Utility and selecting the Commanders category. Select Trackpad and click on Assign Commands. There you'll find a table of existing gestures. Yes; I've seen those but haven't modified them as I obviously didn't need too. Gordon doesn't like the internal trackpad on the MacBook because it gets in the way f his typing So we're hoping that the external one will be better; which brigs us to another question. Can you disable that internal track pad without, obviously, doing any harm. • You can also try out gestures by turning on Keyboard Help. It's a great way to learn to get them right.

Magic Trackpad
Hello everybody I'm wondering whether the magic Trackpad might help Gordon when navigating web pages. Somebody mentioned this a while ago; but we've forgotten how it works. Could somebody remind me? Also, I'm wondering whether the trackpad might be better if it were external rather than the one built-in to the MacBook Pro machines. Gordon's preferred method of working is with a keyboard on his lap and the MBP on a little table in front of him. I won't go into the reasons for this; but there are good reasons. Anyway, does anybody think the magic trackpad would help?

Re: Magic Trackpad
On your last point first, I have a Macbook, no not a Macbook Pro but it too! has an inbuilt Trackpad and I much prefer to use the external Magic Trackpad, main reason being its bigger size. Navigating web pages with the Magic Trackpad - or the built-in one on a Macbook machine for that matter - is done in much the same way as on an iPad or on an iPhone, you have your rotor from which you select your navigation elements such as links, headings, etc, then its a matter of swiping up or down to navigate between next and previous elements as defined by your selection with the rotor. That's what I do here, others I'm sure will have other comments and perhaps more advanced ways of doing things, for example I know one can define gestures with the Magic Trackpad and Voiceover, that's something I've not tried yet.

Re: Magic Trackpad
Hello Dane Gordon dislikes the inbuilt trackpad because of the fact that it's so sensitive. To be honest with you, we very rarely use the web browser on the iOS devices. We can use it, of course, but usually we are within range of a Mac when we want the web. However, I just ordered us a couple of trackpads. One will do nicely upstairs and the other for the MacBook Pros down here. I think that it's something that Gordon really needs to become used too, as he is still very much a keyboard person.
