So I have the aluminum macbook (the only one, the collector edition). This afternoon my trackpad partly stopped working out of the blue. An hour before it stopped working, I was still browsing the web.
However the trackpad still recognises single click, double click, secondary click, and scrolling. The ones which are not working are just pinching, rotating, three and four finger gestures. I tried resetting and all the standard stuff that you'd do.
So I googled and so on and I couldn't find anything useful. So I went to apple support page to book an appointment with one of the geniuses in a nearby apple store. But I tried to search for "Macbook trackpad" in the support website first.
Then I stumbled upon this update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL947 which, as many of you know, should be used to fix the hard drive problem. Then I decided to give it a go (I was going to upgrade my HDD anyway so I've got nothing to lose). Suddenly after the restart my trackpad works perfectly again! What a miracle?! This happened only 2 days after my apple care expired, how COME?!!
Any thoughts anyone?
