So here is my final advice:įor $6.50 you might wanna purchase Better Touch Tool For Mac which improves accidental thumb taps but not 100% perfect.You are trying to load the Sophos Home kernel extension (KEXT) via System Preferences, but the Allow button does not respond when clicked. UPDATE: I was not able to get this do completely fix accidental tap while typing. so this more or less does what my tape hack does sans the tape! You can actually play with the settings and disable thumb clicks on the top part of the trackpad. I'm currently on El Capitan but this should work with any supported version of If you want to make it very easy to run the toggle on and off, you may want to add a custom keyboard shortcut which would just run the toggle application Outdated Then select File > Export and save in Applications but also make sure to select File Format > Application before saving.
Tell application "System Events" to tell process "System Preferences"Ĭlick checkbox 3 of tab group 1 of window 1 Open Applications > Utilities > Script Editor and paste the code from this script: tell application "System Preferences" Use this Apple Script to toggle "typing mode" if you want be sure your trackpad wont mess you up during frenetic typing sessions Karabiner Multitouch extension no longer works on newer versions of MacOS so I recommend turning of tap-to-click when typing. I recommend cutting the foil to be slightly smaller than the electrical tape. Just be careful the foil doesn't make direct contact with the trackpad itself as this will disable the trackpad.
You probably could use clear or scotch tape for the top layer for a thinner profile. To insure the area of electrical tape is not trackable, use 2 layers of tape with a thin strip of aluminum foil between the layers. It may not look pretty but it gets the job done with no further hacks required! Place a 1/2 inch width strip of electrical tape across the top of the trackpad. While some of these tricks seemed to have helped, I found a very easy way to eliminate accidental thumb clicks while typing. If you need those options some of the time, you could probably make a script to quickly toggle them on and off. Try playing around with those options to see what works best for you. I code and don't use a lot of fancy trackpad features. Since I don't need any of those features I just disabled all of them. What seemed to fix it for me was to go into System Peferences > Trackpad > Point & Click and disable the following items: Look up & Data (Tap with three fingers) I was having similar issues after purchasing a new MBP.
