Trackpad 2 issues

Just recently switched from Apple Trackpad to Magic Trackpad 2. Seem to have two issues.


  1. Click is set to Firm, but very often the trackpad selects or “pushes” an on-screen button when I have not physically pressed on it, just keeping my finger touching the trackpad surface.


On the other hand...

2. I find it very difficult to insert the text pointer. Happens everywhere, not related to a specific app. Sometimes I literally have to exit the app, or at least change focus, then come back before I’m successful.


Are these known issues with the Trackpad 2?

In the "Point & Click" tab of Trackpad system preference, make sure "Tap to click" is not enabled.
