I have had this problem with my 17" unibody, and have found no cure. I find it tiresome: and I find the new trackpad difficult also because of my habit of leaving my thumb on the click bar of the old trackpad (as one does with the space bar in a typewriter) which means, when it's at the bottom of the new click bar free trackpad, I'm enacting all sorts of gestures when I don't mean to.
One of these was changing the size of the icons on my desktop. I finally cured this by turning off the zoom gesture. It's a shame that you cna't turn gestures on and off for different applications, areas of work etc. Ranulph On 8 Jan 2011, at 10:19, dereksnoxall wrote: > Thanks to SMUG I have successfully transferred data to the new MBA, which is > working fine - except for the trackpad, which functions erratically.
