Still working here in PT10 although I don't use it. I'm on Win7 so maybe a Mac thing?

Seriously? That is so disappointing to hear. I have found myself really missing the trackpad on an almost daily basis - even though I never used a ProControl with one that was working.

I just remembered that you can use an external mouse with the Pro Control and if the prefs are set to external the trackpad does not function.
So on the main unit go to Utility/Prefs/Mouse/Mode and the choices are Internal or External.

Mine is set to internal. Pretty sure it's a Mac thing. When ProControls were designed the Mac used ADB for keyboards so Digi at the time probably never bothered to write a driver for USB equipped Macs.

Well you're not missing much, the trackpad is not very good.
