No haptic feedback after Ventura upgrade Hi all, I upgraded my 2021 16-inch MBP last night to MacOS 13, Ventura. I immediately lost almost all haptic feedback from the trackpad. It works about once every 20 clicks. Other than that the trackpad is functioning normally. I checked the trackpad settings and nothing looked incorrect. I even unset and then reset settings to see if that would help. Suggestions?

Loss of haptic feedback after Ventura 13.1 upgrade MacBook Pro 2021 16" After upgrading from macOS Monterey 12.6.2 to macOS Ventura 13.1, I lost all haptic feedback from the touchpad as though it had been disabled. After many failed attempts to resolve it, it left me thinking it could be a hardware fault until I wiped and reinstalled Monterey and did resolve the issue. Does anyone know if this issue has been addressed in 13.2?

Haptic feedback on MacBook Pro stopped working after MacOS 13.4 upgrade I have a 14" 2021 MacBook Pro that I purchased less than a year ago. The computer is running macOS Venture 13.4 and the software upgrade to 13.4 just happened a few days ago. Haptic feedback on the trackpad is now intermittent since the software upgrade. It was working fine for a few days after the upgrade, and then when I went to use the computer this morning, haptic feedback was not working. A couple hours later, it started working again, and then it stopped working after a few minutes. I've tried restarting the computer, and also powering it down for a few minutes and then restarting it. I've tried toggling the "Force Click and haptic feedback" switch in the Trackpad Settings and it has no effect. I normally have this feature turned on. Is this a software bug with macOS 13.4 Venture, or has my computer developed some type of hardware problem? Is anyone else experiencing this?
