Q: QuestionIs it a keyboard?

Asked 7 years ago by Rickdiefenderfer.

• A:Answer No. It is similar to a touch pad on the laptop. You slide your finger(s) across the surface to move the cursor, fields, etc. You can use other gestures and press movements to open menus typically associated with the mouse or changing screens. I place it next to the keyboard and use it in place of the mouse. It is much more effective than the mouse without the wide range of movements the mouse requires for a 27" monitor.

Q: QuestionCan the apple magicpad work well windows 10

Asked 7 years ago by Bruce.

• A:Answer Well... It is kinda complicated. If the purpose is to use a trackpad on a Windows-only PC, then don't consider this trackpad. You need to install special software which makes it barely work with a few gestures. If you don't install the software, it only accepts clicks, no gestures whatsoever. However, if you are on a Mac and using Bootcamp to run Windows 10, then the trackpad works fine. So it really depends on the scenario.

Q: QuestionCan the trackpad be used with a Mac Mini?

Asked 7 years ago by tltcajun.

• A:Answer Yes...I’m currently using my 2nd gen Magic Trackpad with a 2012 Mac Mini. Even though Apple says you need a newer Mac with Bluetooth 4.0 it still worked fine with my older Mac. Just plugged it in using the USB cable to to Mac, and it synced up immediately, and has been working fine wireless ever since. I think the requirement for BT4.0 is actually due to BT4.0 being better with power...so their battery life ratings require it.

Q: QuestionI have a MacBook Air but a Logi wireless keyboard. Can I connect the trackpad wirelessly if this (non Mac) keyboard is already connected to my laptop via Bluetooth? Or do I need to buy the Apple keyboard to make it work?

Asked 3 years ago by Valentine.

• A:Answer You should be able to connect a Bluetooth keyboard and the Bluetooth Magic Trackpad. I have both connected to my Mac and they work fine together. It’s worth a try. If for some reason they don’t work you can always either get the Apple keyboard or return the trackpad.

Q: QuestionDoes it work with ipad air?

Asked 5 years ago by Jan01.

• A:Answer Yes! The current iPad OS should support Magic Trackpad 2. It should function similarly to the trackpad on MacBooks but will appear as a dot instead of an arrow on the screen.

Q: QuestionCan this trackpad be used like a touchscreen? Can I essentially use a stylus to draw with it?

Asked 5 years ago by Yaz1.

• A:Answer I can't say for sure, but I have the first generation and I find using a stylus +h magic trackpad with Photoshop and Illustrator to be a great experience. I would assume the second generation is the same, if not better. There are also apps out there that let you tweak your trackpad gestures and other things that make the stylus combination even better. It's no iPad Pro...and an Apple Pencil would be unnecessary. But the answer to you question is yes. I think it is a great and accurate way to free hand draw with photo and illustration applications.
