Re: Trackpad issues on an old High Sierra machine?

Hi,

It's likely a hardware issue.  The best option would be to use an external 
mouse, either USB or Bluetooth.  Both are much less expensive than a new 
machine and someone may even have one lying around that she could have.

Later...

single mom on a very limited income. So up grading it’s probably not an option. 
Any thoughts?
