Can’t find my trackpad settings on my MacBook Pro

Can’t find my trackpad settings. Reinstalled Mac OS Catalina, was about to do my trackpad settings but it’s not there anymore. “Mouse and Track Pad” showing only Mouse settings.

Hi Its MacBook Pro 13" 2012. Trackpad is working, but it's standard settings. Never had issues with finding settings for trackpad, but now in System Preferences > Trackpad - it's just searching for a Bluetooth device and I can't see any settings for it.

What exact Mac is this?


Old issue, new issue, what changed?


Is your trackpad working?

Have you tried safe mode?

Do you have any issues with your battery in MacBook Pro. Have you replaced the battery?

FWIW, you are in the wrong location. You should be in System Preferences > Trackpad, not System Preferences > Accessibility.
