Trackpad Click Not Working on MacBook Air M2 After macOS Sequoia 15.5 Update

Hi everyone,

After updating to macOS Sequoia 15.5, the trackpad on my MacBook Air M2 (13-inch) no longer responds to physical clicks.

  • Scrolling, cursor movement, and tap-to-click all work as expected
  • However, the haptic click (Haptic Touch) no longer functions at all
  • I haven’t changed any system settings, and the trackpad was working fine before the update
  • I’ve tried restarting, booting in Safe Mode, and running Apple Diagnostics, but no issues were found

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

MacBook Air, macOS 15.5

It feels like one of those on purpose things they try to do to force you to buy a newer item if you havent in the past few years...my ipad same issue pen and touch pad is glitchy so i didnt update my phone and ofcourse my phone works fine now...this is extremely frustrating.
