Apple adds reliable clicking abilities to the new MacBook’s no button trackpad via firmware upgrade

I can only imagine how frustrating this problem must have been for those of you who were otherwise lucky enough to have purchased one of the new unibody MacBooks or MacBook Pros.

Evidently, clicks on the new glass trackpad may or may not be recognized. Very random. Very annoying. This firmware update addresses the issue. It downloads as a package that will install an updater application into the Applications/Utilities folder and will launch it automatically. Follow the instructions in the updater application as best you can with your occasionally clickable trackpad and I hope to see you happy and smiling on the other side.

If for some reason the firmware update doesn’t go so well, Apple has some suggestions.

Run Spore Creature Creator Demo on Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger

spore 20080623 210730 Run Spore Creature Creator Demo on Mac OS X 10.4.11 TigerEvidently, the only thing keeping some users of Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger from using the Spore Creature Creator Demo is that the application is coded to look for and only accept Mac OS X 10.5.3.

An anonymous user over at Mac OS X Hints has posted instructions on how to easily alter a plist in the game’s package contents to have it check for a slightly older operating system. Voila! Now, as the editor at Mac OS X Hints notes:

System requirements are typically based on features in a given level of the OS, so there may be unknown issues if you use this hint to run the demo on an earlier version of the OS. Maybe this will work for the full version too…
