I have a usb microsoft mouse and installed the magic trackpad. I'm using Lion as my OS. My trackpad is connect but does not work. I've uninstalled the microsoft intellipoint software, but that didn't resolve the problem. Any ideas?
Magic Trackpad-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
You need to pair it with your machine. Open the trackpad preferences (or bluetooth preferences) and initiate the pairing from there. The instructions are in the Magic Trackpad manual (link downloads pdf) which you should have gotten with the trackpad.
You may also need to do a smc reset.
Thank you for the reply. my trackpad is paired. It just does not work. I've restarted my computer umpteen times, uninstalled MS software that came with the MS mouse. I'm puzzled as to why my trackpad won't work. I'm running Lion.....could that be the problem?
When you push the button on the trackpad do you see the green light on the top right of it?
Yes, when I push the button on the trackpad the green light goes on and then shuts off.
That's what you should see.
