Q: My trackpad takes a moment to respond usually it would react quickly, I don't know what to do.

Lately, when I'm watching a video for instance, when I move the trackpad the mouse doesn't move for almost 30 seconds but after that it works perfectly fine, and when my computer's display turns off when I move the trackpad around to wake the display back up it takes about 30 seconds once again to come back on. I'm not sure what's wrong. I've set any defaults on powersaver back to what default settings but nothing is working. Not sure if I should take it in or if anyone has a solution, thank you all so much.

MacBook Pro, iOS 6.1.2

    You don't say which model MacBook Pro that you have but the behavior you describe could be just a fault with the trackpad, a swollen battery, any number of things. Since it's likely a hardware issue the best that I can suggest is to take the machine to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them check the machine out.

     

    Sorry - best I can do...
