Apple updates(fixes) New MacBooks/Pros Trackpad Firmware

Apple today released an update that will hopefully fix the issues many people, including myself, have been experiencing with the new MacBook Pro Trackpads. the major issue being that every so often (too often to not bother me) the trackpad would not register a click. Let's hope this does indeed fix the issue.



The update (below) only takes a few seconds and does not require a reboot. Apple also released a Quicktime update (see above) which does require a reboot. The Quicktime update deals with items related to iChat.



UPDATE:
It has been about three weeks since the above update was released. I am please to report that it does seem to work. I have not noticed any further "missed clicks" since the update. Thanks, Apple for fixing this.
