The touch pad on my docking keyboard is not working. The touch screen is fine and all the keys on the keyboard but I cant use the touch pad anymore. Anybody got any ideas to help me out?
Have you tried the key that turns the touchpad on and off? It's the one above the 3 key.

Thanks. That was it.
I was getting ready to tell you to check it but Pukeboy beat me to it. Good call Pukeboy! Lol
There are many helpful shortcuts on the keyboard. Google " TF300T keyboard shortcuts " to get a list of them.

I just received my dock the other day, and tonight i was playing with key combos. Now my dumb a$$ lost the use of the touchpad on my dock.
Does anyone know what combo i hit to turn it off? And is there a list of all the dock shortcuts anywhere? The dock came with nothing.
Thanks

There is a button, its the fourth from the left on the top row (the shortcuts) that enables/disables the trackpad. Give that a try
U day man thanks!!!! Any links to a list of all the short cuts on the keyboard?

Hey all, I just got my dock today and it is awesome. Just had a few questions for you. Is there any way to wake the screen using the keyboard, or an app that will sense when the prime is docked, and leave the screen always on until the light sensor detects that you closed the tab/dock? Also, in the settings there is an option to set the middle button on the touchpad. Am i missing something? Where is this middle button?

Hello xda, is there such a thing as a keyboard that only occupies 1/4 of the screen so that i could type with only my right thumb while holding the tf201 with my right hand? swipe or alphanumeric keypad i think is best for this application....

Is there a setting, or an app that will automatically disable the dock's touchpad while typing? My thumbs hit it while I'm typing, and it sends the cursor (and the typed text) all over the place. Every laptop I've ever owned has automatically disabled the touchpad while the keyboard was in use to prevent this type of issue. I'm hoping there's a way to configure the prime to do the same.

Yep there is a key on the keyboard dock right above the #3 that will disable it.
Thanks, but I was hoping for something that automatically disabled it while the keyboard was in use (and then re-enabled it a second or so after you stopped typing). The button works for now, but I hope that there is an automatic solution soon...

As far as I know there is no setting for that.
The touch pad could use a couple of software settings that would make it much more usable, for instance a setting to disable tap to click would be amazing.
The second or so youd have to wait for the touchpad to reactivate surely is better spent actually pressing the trackpad enable/disable button??
My trackpad is permanently disabled as i find it much easier to navigate on screen rather than use the trackpad.

Same here.
Or you could do what I do and invest in a wireless USB mouse. I have it plugged in all the time because the receiver is so darn small it doesn't matter to me .

I just leave the touchpad off all the time. Don't need it since I can just touch the screen.

I see your logic, however the touchpad is a lot more accurate if you're trying to select a portion of text, or put the cursor in a specific spot. I use the TP for taking notes in meetings a lot, and the touchpad really helps there.
Is there an app that anyone is aware of for the dock that freezes the pointer where its at or stop it from jumping somewhere when u type like the program touchfreeze for laptops that does the same but for android. I mean its annoying when u start typing and then look up and see ur pointer jumped somewhere else as u were typing. I appreciate any input . Thanks

Press the 4th button on the top left to toggle the trackpad arrow off and on.

its on the keyboard dock itsself, position of where F4 would be on a normal keyboard, you will a picture of a rectangle and I think a cross, that locks the pad.
If you have the TFP docked, on the top row of keys the 4th one in from the left has a picture of a trackpad with a diagonal line from bottom right to top left. If you press this once it disables the trackpad. The button is directly above the small figure on the "3" key on the uk keyboard this is the £ sign (I think US layout is the same except for the " and @ keys)
Hope this helps
Andy
thank you for your replies . i been looking at the screen the whole time and it was on the keyboard the whole time lol. thanks everyone.
