magic trackpad won't come on
I leave my computer on & when I wake it up the magic trackpad won't turn on for about 10 to 15 minutes. Batteries were changed & computer was turned off & on. Any suggestions?

Hello esmeralda724,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are experiencing issues with your Magic Trackpad after waking your computer from sleep. Have you tried clicking the Trackpad in an attempt to wake it up? Check out the following resource for more information:

9. After my computer starts up or wakes from sleep, when will the wireless devices become active?
Wireless devices are usually available a few moments after the computer completes the startup process. After waking from sleep, Apple Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard (2009) should be available right away. Other wireless devices can take up to 5 seconds to be recognized when waking from sleep. You may need to click a button on the wireless mouse once or twice to wake it up.
Some Bluetooth devices—such as audio headsets—may disconnect to conserve the devices battery power after no audio or data is present for a certain amount of time. In such cases, you may need to push a button on the device or headset to make it active again. Check the documentation that came with your device for more information.
Cheers,
Matt M.
