Magic Trackpad - "Tap to Click" problem

Tap to Click is a user option so it doesn't take effect until after Login. It must be set for each user since it's not system wide.

Edit: Use the Physical click on the trackpad at login and to set "tap to click" on the other user. Push down on the lower left side of the trackpad.

Glad to help Mark. 🙂

I have this problem also.

With one user I am able to adjust the magic trackpad settings, such as Tap to Click or Scroll Direction: Natural. When I switch to another user login, I can "check" the boxes to change the settings, but they don't take effect. So I am unable to use Tap to Click, Scroll Direction:Natural, or any other non-default setting on this one user login.

Any thoughts? I've tried rebooting, resetting, etc to no avail

Well I solved my own problem, although to be honest it makes no sense to me why this worked:

I went into Trackpad settings for the user where Tap to Click etc wasn't working. I unchecked Tap to Click and Secondary Click and then re-checked them. For some reason it worked. Weird but I'm happy now. Note that I saw this suggestion in another forum also so apparently this worked for someone else too

Thank you so much! This worked for me!!

well that sorted me too!
