How to Change Force Click Pressure on Trackpads with Mac OS X

You’ll need Force Click and haptic feedback enabled to be able to adjust the pressure of the feature, if you chose to disable Force Click on a Mac trackpad you’ll want to turn that back on before this will be functional as intended:

1. GO to the  Apple menu and choose “System Preferences” then go to “Trackpad”

2. Select the “Point & Click” tab, be sure that “Force click and haptic feedback” is checked to be ON

3. Look for the “Click” slider switch and change this setting to fit the desired Force Click pressure:

  • Light – a gentle press activates a click and Force Click
  • Medium – the default option for click and Force Click pressure
  • Firm – firm deliberate click pressure must be placed on the trackpad to activate Force Click

4. Test out the new setting in the little preview window to the right, when satisfied leave System Preferences to keep the change
