My mousepad is called something like Alps Pointing Device.
The thing is that no Device tab shows up when I use my right arrow as you've
suggested. And as a matter of fact, though I followed directions for
putting the touchpad in the system tray, it doesn't show up there.
Thanks for your patience with this problem.

Hello there;
first welcome to the list.
I assume your asking how you could turn off the mouse/touchpad?
you didn't give much information,
so I'll just take a chance here!
SynapticsPointingDevice
yes, you can disable the device, through the system tray.
I disabled the device, however, I left it in the system tray, just in
case, I needed a sighted person to click for me.
here's how I did it.
1, system tray, and enter on, synaptics pointing device .
2, now enter on properties.
3, now shift tab one time you will hear;
button's tab.
4, now right arrow until you hear;
device settings tab.
5, now tab until you hear disable press enter.
now anytime you want to turn on device, just follow the same steps,
however, you would enter on enable.

About me? I've got a laptop with the mouse right on the keypad on the
front
of it. It' annoying.
