How do you enable Acer Aspire One 725 0802 touchpad and F Keys?
I recently tried to install the Elementary Luna OS using Unetbootin. Instead of installing to a USB or CD to boot from, I installed the OS to the hard drive. It seemed to install fine, the BIOS showed the option to boot from either Windows 7 or the UNetbootin. Selecting the latter, would boot up the Elementary Luna OS, but immediately, the touchpad on the PC mentioned in the subject line, was disabled. Prior to doing any of this, the F keys and a few of the keys in the top left corner of the keyboard, were disabled too. So, any accidental presses of FN and the enable/disable the touchpad key, were essentially impossible. Even going back into Windows 7, and enabling/disabling the touchpad, updating/installing the/new drivers, and installing Windows updates still left the touchpad disabled. I deleted/uninstalled everything to do with the Linux OS and only have Windows installed. It should be noted that booting in Safe Mode, the touchpad works fine and the cursor moves as normal. Would the installation of the Linux OS have disabled the touchpad? Is there any way of reverting the touchpad back to usable state?

Is there a Keyboard short-cut for using the mouse wheel on a Laptop?
OMG... The mousewheel IS the shortcut... Anyway, back in the 'old' days you would use [PgUp] and [PgDn]. Alternatively you can use the up- or downarrow for scrolling, or in case of a 'Multi Gesture' touchpad on your laptop, you can scroll by sliding TWO fingers on the touchpad. Last option would be to 'double tap' your touchpad wit your cursor on the scrollbar, and sliding the scrollbar on your second tap... Good luck....

Why does the touchpad not respond to the taps used to click after your Toshiba laptop comes out of Hibernation it'll move the cursor the right and left buttons work and the pad works after reboot?
Try function key and F4 Key depressed together.AnswerNo, that wouldn't be it. I don't know why hibernation would cause a touchpad to become unresponsive but ''function + F4'' is a keyboard shortcut to put your computer ''into'' hibernation.I know exactly what you were referring to Chris, my friend just had the same problem. She clicked something, and suddenly, the touch-click was gone. It has nothing to do with the keypad dying, it
Your keyboard is super sensitive and always switches to random spots when you are typing is there a way to lower the sensitivity level before you break your computer from freaking out?
If you have a laptop, one of 2 things are happening. Either your stick mouse is being tapped or you are tapping the touchpad causing the cursor to go where the mouse is pointing. Go into the Control Panel > Mouse settings to disable either the stick or the touchpad.
