Q: How can I reset a malfunctioning track pad?
Hey Dorothy Jane,
Thanks for your post, and welcome to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you may be referring to an SMC or PRAM reset. Both would be applicable steps in troubleshooting your issue:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
