I recently bought a MacBook Air and have been regularly having the problem that the trackpad doesn't work and thus the laptop is unusable for a short time after opening the laptop (when it hasn't been shut down). This is really annoying and can take up to about a minute or so until it seems to resume functioning. I try a lot of things but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this problem?
