Track Pad feels stuck and won't click.

After only having my computer for about a year, maybe a little less, my trackpad stopped physically moving. It would still function but wouldn't make the clicking sound or have the normal movement. After some lengthy conversations with apple support where I did, SMC resets and PRAM resets, turned it on and off, checked settings and reset preferences, (which make sense if the software isn't functioning) but this was clearly a hardware problem where something wasn't moving in its normal capacity, I finally decided to try a few things myself and fixed the problem . I thought I would write this article to help any of you in the same situation. The first thing I did was shut down the computer. Next I stood the computer on it's side (ie. the power port on the table) and lightly tapped the back behind the trackpad, the trackpad itself, and all around the trackpad. I then rotated the computer so that a different edge was resting on the table and repeated the above steps. As was my suspicion the trackpad began to move, slightly at first and then more freely as I adjusted positions. I believe the trackpad probably collected some dust, or other debris over time and the light tapping gently freed the mechanism. Since then I have not had any issues. Hopefully this helps!
