Since Apple released the 10.6.2 update on November the 9th I have noticed the glass trackpad on my Unibody MacBook has become very unresponsive. I didn’t really notice it at first, but then started to wonder why links in Safari weren’t responding to  my clicks. Not only that, selecting blocks of text or using the scroll bars has become increasingly frustrating. I tried cleaning the trackpad with an alcohol solution, tried repairing permissions, and even reset the System Management Controller (SMC). The only thing I could think of that’d changed recently was me updating to 10.6.2.

After a bit of searching I couldn’t find much through Google. I then  decided on posting a thread on the Apple Support forums. After a few days, more reports started trickling in with others experiencing the same problem.

So get on it, Apple!
