NO scroll in trackpad

My old Mac Pro (beg 2011), I installed my time machine copy with Yosemite 10.10.5 from Mac Pro (2014), and the trackpad scrolling with 2 fingers doesn´t work. Any ideas? thanks!

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

In the trackpad system preferences shows the video that u can scroll with 2 fingers among other movements...I try to delete the trackpad.plist, but I don´t find it in the library? it´s weird, all other options of the trackpad work? not knowing what to do I use the scroll bar, but it´s not the same! thanks for triying to help, Best

I solve it! find another post:

1. Use the Terminal to enable proper scrolling behavior.

If you have just transferred your software and data to a new MacBook or MacBook Pro and are having troubles with two-finger gestures, then entering the following command in the Terminal should re-enable it:

defaults write -g com.apple.trackpad.scrollBehavior 2

After entering this command, either restart the computer or log out and log back in for the changes to take effect.
