Please help, trackpad and mouse not working

Same thing.

Hello. I'm VERY interested in your post, since I just began having the same problem with my MacBook Pro 17-inch. Clicking the trackpad does nothing, even though you can move the cursor around. What surprised me is that it does the same thing with an external mouse.

I'm early in the diagnostics, but I'll let you know if I find out anything. Curious that you would have the same problem, at about the same time.

Please let me know if you get anywhere.

 

Mouse click will not work with trackpad or external mouseHi there

Hi there

I am experiencing exactly the same thing! My OS is the most recent and it has now happened several times to me... The mouse click suddenly stops working. There's nothing I can do about it. I have tried connecting an external mouse, restarting the system, just waiting for OSX to have a think about it... nothing helped!

If anyone knows how to get the mouse to "click" again, please let me know!

Many thanks
Richard

 

I think if you turn the computer off and hold command option shift plus power for two seconds let go then press power it should reset your mouse and trackpad for you without messing up settings
