Re: Magic Trackpad

[Seyoon Choi]

The easiest way to rotate in my opinion and came to known as my preference is 
by placing thumb and your first finger and rotating it quite firmly. If you are 
use to rotor from iOS the method seem to be similar but a bit upscaled for that 
size of a trackpad.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[E.T.]

   Sounds really interesting. But the price. Twice what I paid for the 
older one. But yes, the old one is hard to be sure its actually on. 
Would have to check in Bluetooth prefs for that. I spent some time doing 
this until I was sure it was functioning. Then I learned that even with 
Enable Trackpad checked in VO Utility, you still need to turn it on with 
the VO 2 finger rotate.

RE: Magic Trackpad

[Simon Fogarty]

The newer track pad is more like the new touch pad of the mac book pros.

 It's also solid and thinner  with no need for batteries as it's rechargeable 
with a lightening connector along the back edge.
 Oh and wider by a couple of centameters 
And more costly.

Set it up as it should be. Then, on the trackpad, do a 2 finger clockwise

It does not matter the commander is already enabled in VO Utility. 
Apparently, the VO keys are locked. This is noted as an El Capitan bug.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Caitlyn Furness]

Hi,
Do you have the track pad commander turned on?

You can find it under the vo utility(vo f8), then go down to commanders, pick 
the track pad tab, and then go through there and set it up as you like.

To turn on track pad commander after you set it up, hit the vo keys and then 
make the rotor gesture on the track pad itself.  You will hear a litle noise 
and vo will say track pad commander on.

hth,
Caitlyn

Re: Magic Trackpad

[E.T.]

   Set it up as it should be. Then, on the trackpad, do a 2 finger 
clockwise rotate to enable the trackpad commander.


   It does not matter the commander is already enabled in VO Utility. 
Apparently, the VO keys are locked. This is noted as an El Capitan bug.

Dear List, in the past I have always used macbooks, , ,  which obviously 
have trackpads built in, but I acquired a desktop mac, and I can’t get 
anything out of the magic trackpad.  I have checked blue tooth in system 
preferences and it is showing as connected, I have trackpad commander turned 
on in voice over utility, but when I flick the trackpad nothing happens. 
There is a recess in the middle of the trackpad that apparently has the 
apple logo on it, but I don’t understand why there would be a recess in the 
middle of a trackpad.  Is there any chance I have left some paper covering 
the surface?  There is nothing obvious visually, when I got sighted 
assistance, but the circular recess in the middle feels wrong.  There are 
two buttons at the bottom of the trackpad. I am running yosemite 10.10.1.

I would be grateful for any advice.

Kind Regards, Lee

Re: Magic Trackpad problems

I haven't seen one of these, but the Apple logo makes me immediately think you 
simply have the trackpad upside down. Flip it over so the other surface is 
facing up, and see what happens. again, this might be completely wrong, but 
it's my first thought and the easiest to test.

Hi,

The orientation of the Trackpad should have the tubular battery compartment at 
the top, furthest away from you, thus making a slanted down ramp kind of thing 
towards you.

Re: Magic Trackpad and IPhone

[Kawal Gucukoglu]

No, the I phone is not like the track pad as I do not have the magic one.

I find the I phone less sensative and on occasions find that I have to tap the 
I phone twice to open things.

Re: Magic Trackpad and IPhone

[Dan]

Hello,
You really can't compare the trackpad with the iPhone. They are two completely 
different devices.
The touch screen on any of the iOS devices does much more than the trackpad.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

I don't find the trackpad commander hard to use at all.  Its rather simple in 
my opinion.  Its just not as practical depending on what app your in, and then 
how much customization you have done to your trackpad commander.  For web 
browsing for example, its great.  Its the exact same interface like navigating 
the web on the iPhone.  But for going through a text document, I think its 
easier to just keep your hands on the keyboard.  I also like the track pad 
commander in iTunes.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Vic]

It is, as someone correctly pointed out, great to use both. Trackpad
is great for browsing and exploring the screen whereas the keyboard is
great for typing and performing action while you are typing.
One great thing about Trackpad is that you can define your own custom
gestures.
MacOS has its own appeal, not to be compared to Windows7.
A smart computer user these days should probably have both. :)

 I use a combination of the trackpad on my MacBook Pro and VoiceOver keyboard

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Anne Robertson]

Hello,

I'm sure, once she gets used to it, your wife will prefer the Magic Trackpad 
over a mouse. You can easily turn off the Trackpad Commander for her to use the 
trackpad in the normal way.

My sighted husband loves the trackpad on his MBP.

Cheers,

Anne

 the mouse. I have a sited wife who I am sure would rather the mouse.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Neil Barnfather - TalkNav]

Max,

just chipping in my own two pence worth here.

I have now since making the switch, or as I prefer to say, Mac-ing the switch, 
get it! :) bought an iMac, MacBook Air and an MacBook Pro.

the first thing to say about your observation is, unless things are done 
differently where you are, Apple will sell you an iMac, this is their all in 
one desktop solution, with a wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse, you cannot 
dump the mouse. You then though can choose to add the Magic Track Pad to that 
order, but you cannot per say trade it for the Magic Mouse. So what I'm saying 
here is if you ask Apple for the Magic Track Pad, you're going to have both the 
Magic Track Pad and Magic Mouse.

This is not a bad thing, my sighted wife uses our iMac as do our little ones, 
and sometimes I spot them using the TP and other times the Mouse, the nice 
thing about the TP is that it is a large surface track pad, far bigger than on 
the portables and as such, is comfortable for use on a lap etc.

The iMac can happily handle having all three input devices connected at the 
same time so there's no worries there.

On a more Voice Over note, its like a lot of people have already said to you, 
on my three Machines I primarily use the keyboard, this is ergonomics, moving a 
knuckle up and down is less strain then your wrist to swipe all over the shop. 
So you get less ache and discomfort from the keyboard for prolonged use periods.

However, the TP does make exploring web-sites more intuitive or simple to get 
your head round layouts etc, and it can be nice to rest your knuckles every so 
often.

without any doubt though, I am far quicker using my keyboard over my TP on an 
overall bases.

I would say that if you're investing in a Mac, an additional $99 is hardly 
worth worrying about given the overall comparative expense, go ahead, put one 
of those things in your cart, they are of use after all.

One final note, if you're used to the iPHone, iPod Touch or iPad, then the TP 
also makes additional sense, especially if you're converting from a PC, as you 
can migrate your existing understanding of controls immediately to your Mac 
experience.

hope that this helps.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[agent086b]

Now hear we have the option of switching the Trackpad instead of the 
Magic mouse for the same cost. I might do that and if my wife would 
rather a mouse I will just buy one for her. Mostly she will use my Win 
XP till I can afford to get her a a Mac.

Thanks all for the info.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Ricardo Walker]

Hi,

Since the refresh of the iMacs last month, they are offering a choice at 
purchase of the magic trackpad or, a magic mouse.

 Max,
 
 just chipping in my own two pence worth here.
 
 I have now since making the switch, or as I prefer to say, Mac-ing the 
 switch, get it! :) bought an iMac, MacBook Air and an MacBook Pro.
 
 the first thing to say about your observation is, unless things are done 
 differently where you are, Apple will sell you an iMac, this is their all in 
 one desktop solution, with a wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse, you cannot 
 dump the mouse. You then though can choose to add the Magic Track Pad to that 
 order, but you cannot per say trade it for the Magic Mouse. So what I'm 
 saying here is if you ask Apple for the Magic Track Pad, you're going to have 
 both the Magic Track Pad and Magic Mouse.
 
 This is not a bad thing, my sighted wife uses our iMac as do our little ones, 
 and sometimes I spot them using the TP and other times the Mouse, the nice 
 thing about the TP is that it is a large surface track pad, far bigger than 
 on the portables and as such, is comfortable for use on a lap etc.
 
 The iMac can happily handle having all three input devices connected at the 
 same time so there's no worries there.
 
 On a more Voice Over note, its like a lot of people have already said to you, 
 on my three Machines I primarily use the keyboard, this is ergonomics, moving 
 a knuckle up and down is less strain then your wrist to swipe all over the 
 shop. So you get less ache and discomfort from the keyboard for prolonged use 
 periods.
 
 However, the TP does make exploring web-sites more intuitive or simple to get 
 your head round layouts etc, and it can be nice to rest your knuckles every 
 so often.
 
 without any doubt though, I am far quicker using my keyboard over my TP on an 
 overall bases.
 
 I would say that if you're investing in a Mac, an additional $99 is hardly 
 worth worrying about given the overall comparative expense, go ahead, put one 
 of those things in your cart, they are of use after all.
 
 One final note, if you're used to the iPHone, iPod Touch or iPad, then the TP 
 also makes additional sense, especially if you're converting from a PC, as 
 you can migrate your existing understanding of controls immediately to your 
 Mac experience.
 
 hope that this helps.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Shawn Krasniuk]

Hi. I, too, hardly ever use my trackpad. I find it too hard to use. Although 
I've pretty much mastered the touch screen on my 6th gen Nano but the Mac is a 
different story. The keyboard is easier.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Zachary Kline]

Hi Max,
I use a combination of the trackpad on my MacBook Pro and VoiceOver keyboard 
commands.  There are some things it's easier to do via the keyboard than the 
trackpad, and vice versa.  I have been slowly working on using my trackpad a 
bit more often.  If I had to quantify things I'd say I used the keyboard more 
often overall, but that the trackpad is certainly useful for some applications, 
like web browsing.
Hope this helps,
Zack.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[agent086b]

Thanks for the info. What advantages is in using the Trackpad when web 
browsing?
I ask this as from Apple you can get either the Trackpad or the new 
Magic mouse when you order the iMak. I think the Trackpad here is $99.00 
if I take the mouse. I have a sited wife who I am sure would rather the 
mouse.

Re: Magic Trackpad

[Christopher Peppel]

Hi there,

I have played around with the Magic trackpad a little, and currently prefer the 
keyboard.  If you have been using the Iphone, then you won't have any problem 
with it.  The Mac is an excellent choice in my opinion.  The stories I keep 
hearing about the PC just make me that much happier that I don't have one.

Fwiw I find the trackpad more like the VO user experience of my iPad.  It's 
nice if you prefer flicking over arrow key pressing.

Re: magic trackpad

I imagine it works similarly to the regular mouse. THe limited time I spent

you want to do. :) ALthough the mouse is pretty neat looking.

Hi,

What do you mean by contextual navigation?

 Hi list,
 
 I just got the thingo today, no problems pairing, the thingo looks and feels 
 great, if you spun it upside down it can perform as a pill holder but anyway:
 
 Has anyone been able to make the trackpad function just like on a macbook?
 
 In this i mean, how do we turn on the contextual navigation on it?
 
 So far i only get weird responses .
 
 Ive got the latest drivers and software for snow leopard so that's not the 
 problem, Or is it a whole new way of using a trackpad that i missed in my 
 research on it?
 
 Cheers

Ah,

In that case I'm not having difficulty with this.  The track pad is telling me 
the items underneath my finger as I move.  Did you update the trackpad firmware?

Re: magic trackpad in cambodia

[Yuma Antoine Decaux]

By the way,

I think theres some really nice things that can be done with this trackpad.

We've made some stencils for several applications such as DJ whereas we overlay 
the surface of the trackpad with a thin rubber which defines all the important 
parts of the interface.

In the case of DJ, scratching has become a whole new game, and mixing is no 
problem with the trackpad.

There is certainly a cost for doing this, but very well worth it.


Will report on some more interesting stencils to make.

Cheers

I bought it from the apple store. As for its availability in other places, I'd

Re: Magic Trackpad

for those of us who have mac desktops or mini's, it gives us a trackpad like 
the one on the Macbook. Chriss Moore told me about it but I didn't expect it to 
be available until September. Since it is, I went ahead and ordered it. It is 
supposed to be here by August 3rd.

Re: Magic Trackpad

THere is a difference, the Magic Mouse will not work with VO, but the Magic

clockwise.  VO will say track commander on. YOu can browse the VO help for the 
supported gestures.

RE: Magic Trackpad

[Bryan Smart]

This is true, but and important thing to know is that the Magic Track Pad is 
80% larger than the MacBook track pad, which is already quite a bit larger than 
the typical laptop track pad. VO is easier to work with the MacBook track pad 
than with the iPhone, due to the increased size, and I expect that the Magic 
Track Pad will be even easier.

I expect that the Magic Track Pad, since it works over blue tooth, will make 
the ideal remote control for the new rumored Apple TV box, when/if it comes out.

for those of us who have mac desktops or mini's, it gives us a trackpad like 
the one on the Macbook. Chriss Moore told me about it but I didn't expect it to 
be available until September. Since it is, I went ahead and ordered it. It is 
supposed to be here by August 3rd.

I have just spoken to someone in Apple Sales in Ireland, and 
YES it supports VO :)

Hi folks,
 
Just wondered if anyone plans to try the Magic Trackpad 
and see if it works with VoiceOver? I'd love to have one if it works.
 
There's a software update for the Magic Trackpad, and 
you must be running 10.6.4.
 
Thanks,
Blake
