"Burned" index fingers from using MacBook Pro trackpad: My index fingers, both hands. which rest on the computer next to the trackpad and/or are used on the trackboard are painful, feel like they have been burned and, I can barely move them. I did

Are you using while plugged in, I experience an electrical buzzing in my 13 inch rMBP (12,1)

I suggest that you consult a physician. You may have an allergy or some other rare condition that creates such symptoms. This is the first time I have heard of any one having 'burned' fingers from using a trackpad.

Ciao.

If you fingers were burning, why didn't you lift them off?

My physicians do not make laptops nor do they understand a "power transmission" through a laptop shell. Tubes in radio's were hot. That was 100 years ago. Something is transmitting power. My fingers aren't "burned" they just feel burned and are now stiff and arthritic. Only the index fingers are impacted even though I use other fingers on the keyboard so it is not the keyboard. Check the internet--I am not the lone ranger re this phenomenon.

Computer techs do not understand skin and nerve damage. Stiff and arthritic fingers fall within the domain of the physician. If your computer is burning your fingers stop using it and take it to an authorized service center for evaluation.

That makes too much sense. 😉

I have nothing to do with Apple, I'm just another Mac user like yourself. As OGELTHORPE suggested you can leave feedback for Apple here:

Radiation? I seriously doubt that is a problem. You might want to take it in to an Apple store and explain your issue there.

Nothing is being "transmitted" through your trackpad. Therefore, your physician doesn't need to know about power transmission. They need to know about what sort of diseases or conditions cause the symptoms you have and what specialists to refer you to, if required.

Good luck on your search for an ambulance chaser looking for "green mail" from deep pockets.

The assertion is, without doubt, the dumbest attempt to squeeze $$$ from a corporation that I have ever seen.
