Feb 4, 2016 5:40 AM in response to fbeerisby Larry McJunkin,I finally disabled "Tap to Click" and changed the trackpad tap sensitivity to "Light" and while this solved the problem, it's not the actual fix, which Apple needs to address. Now I have to actual push on the trackpad for any actions, and like others, I want to just touch it. Anyway, for now this is working.

Mar 29, 2016 9:56 AM in response to 750 H2Cby mdouglaswray,I will add my voice to the growing tide - the swipe feature in El Capitan Mail is very annoying and not having an 'off' switch for it is not just user-unfriendly it's user-screw-you. PLEASE!!!!! For the love of God, Jesus and all that's HOLY - LET US TURN THIS OFF! Oh - and STOP with the 'use the classic layout' - I prefer the NEW layout thank you very much. That's not a solution, that's a dodge and ANYTHING BUT 'user service'. Apple, you used to be better than this. Try to be 'insanely great' again. I miss that.

Mar 29, 2016 10:04 AM in response to mdouglaswrayby Larry McJunkin,I really hope everyone goes to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ to complain about this. Apple doesn't read anything in the discussion groups, but if they see a few hundred common complaints about something from this page they just "might" fix the problem.

Apr 29, 2016 4:07 AM in response to 750 H2Cby 750 H2C,I've just replaced my Magic Mouse (worn out) with a Magic Mouse 2. Guess what? MagicPrefs won't recognise it. So I'm back to square one. I wonder if I have to fill in yet another bug report, but that will probably be just as useless as the first ones.

Jun 27, 2016 9:39 AM in response to 750 H2Cby Guy Hemmings,I have discovered that if you place two fingers on the mouse as you click on the email then no sideswiping activity can take place, which then does away with any false clicks. Agreed though, it is a pain, but this 'solution' alleviates the annoyance. After you have done this a few times it becomes quite natural.

Sep 6, 2016 12:49 AM in response to pinkstonesby iancuthbert,I've use Better Touch Tool and, before that, MagicPrefs for years and with no issues. If a third party extension causes problems with your OS surely there is a simple solution - uninstall it. The great advantage of modern operating systems is their flexibility, extendibility and customisability. In this case the only reason people wish to change the native behaviour of the OS is that it is flawed and causes problems, so things are already 'going wrong'.
