three finger tap stopped working. #60

Closed jucytec closed 1 year ago

jucytec commented 1 year ago

Was using three finger tap to close tabs in browsers... one day it just stopped working. i've since tried other options, 4 finger, force click... but none of them are working anymore.

i'm on version 1.8

Recent versions of macOS have been a bit flaky with persisting the Accessibility permissions.

  1. Quit Middle
  2. In System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Accessibility, disable then remove Middle
  3. Reboot
  4. Relaunch Middle and re-enable in Privacy & Security -> Accessibility as prompted

Let me know if that doesn't fix it and we can dig deeper.

Thanks for the prompt response,

I'm using middleTouch, and i've tried the steps you provided and it did not restore the functionality.

What is odd is if i three finger tap twice it does a screen zoom... LOL

sorry, i just checked my USE trackpad gesture to ZOOM was turned on. maybe this is a condition you can catch and warn the users like the other warning you have regarding three finger drag.

User error.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm pretty sure I can catch this and will add in a check for it.

Not working on imac 24 with m1.... With my last imac with intel all ok... After give the permissions the app close and no icon on topbar and no functionality at all I'm on ventura

@sopedro I'll need more details to understand what's going on. Can you open a new issue with more information, since this issue was resolved? When accessibility permissions are provided, the app should close its "Authorize Middle..." window and open the prefs window on first run. If for some reason it crashed at this time, then we should see a crash report in the Console app. Let me know what happens when you try to relaunch the app.

@rxhanson First time i open app , it ask to add pemissions, after that, nothing happens. I click app icon and nothing, no crash notification, nothing. If i try to uninstall , i see a message tha app is still running and can't be uninstalled. To uninstall app I have to go to accessibility permission and turn off. In my macbook intel cpu it's working with no issues

@sopedro I opened #61 one for your issue

rxhanson commented 1 year ago

@sopedro FYI I updated #61 and we can continue the conversation there. Thanks!
