Q: 4 finger swipe does not work in macOS Sierra!!
Hey all, I upgraded to macOS Sierra and noticed that one of my most regularly used feature on Mac OS, 4 finger swipe, for switching between desktops is not working! Mine is a April 2011 MacBook Pro.
Earlier, 2 finger swiping back and forth in folders, similar to switching back and forward for webpages in Safari, was discontinued for no fathomable reason. I hope it's not the same fate for 4 finger swipe for switching between desktops.
I probably use it hundreds of times every single day for switching between desktops since I have safari, MS Word and Mail apart from iTunes open on separate desktops. I hope a fix is released soon!
Apple, don't bite away useful features!!

I've just found that if you disable and then re-enable 4 finger swipe for full-screen apps on trackpad options the function is restored, but now I can't select text with 3 fingers...
