Q: Force Click not working for Lookup or Quick Look?

The Force Click option is checked in my System Preferences>Trackpad options, but Force Click is not working on my new MacBook 12".

 

Could there be some other setting which is preempting Force Click?

 

Thanks.

MacBook, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

    Hi Neimlerr,

     

    It sounds like the Force Touch function on your Macbook isn't functioning like it should. I would check to see if the setting for it is still selected in your System Preferences: 

     

    Using a Force Touch trackpad

    To adjust the pressure you need to click your trackpad, follow these steps.

    1. From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click Trackpad.
    3. Click the "Point & Click" tab.
    4. Find "Click pressure" and adjust the slider to your preference. Note that the sound of the click changes with the click pressure setting.

    To turn off Force click, deselect the “Force Click and haptic feedback” checkbox. This will disable the functionality described in the Trackpad preferences pane.
