Hard to explain, But...
Before the latest updates I used to be able to Double tap on my tackpad and hold on the second tap, I was then able to drag the window, select text ETC it was like the second tap was a click.

This is now gone? would it have been the software update? Has anyone else experienced this? Apple Australia is closed so I can call till Monday :(

SOLVED --

Thanks to Chundles

Had the same issue, much nicer with it turned back on.

Sure did :( I can't see anything that relate's to Double Tap (Honestly Can't remember what it was called/Under) - That being said there is still no reference...

One Finger -> Dragging; in SL at least.

Mystery solved.
 
Whoah at last! Was this in 10.7.1? Always annoyed me that double tap and drag worked on my old mbp but not on my new MBA.

Cheers!
