Double tap on the touchpad LED (top left corner) - it toggles between turning it on and off.

    Thanks, was just issued 8470 for work and I locked it up by accident. I figured it must have something to do with the little light in the upper left corner, but I wasn't tapping it correctly.

I have a hp elitebook 8460p and my synaptisstouchpad is not working anymore.... I do have a LED on at the top left side of the touch pad but I don't know how to turn it offin order to make the touchpad...

why not use the drivers seen at HP. for this model
this model is supported 100% why not>
NO OS stated, so I cant tell you which one, is this windows 7
why post lacking that key fact?
all those things run custom HP driver,
its not just one driver, its a set, and they work as TEAM.
ok

My guess device manager shows many things wrong.
for same reasons.

11 different OS sold with this PC, 11.
seen here

How do I unlock the touch pad on my HP mini

I'm not sure what you operating system is but I'd suggest you go to your Control Panel and look for Touch pad and look at the settings there, If there's no Touchpad listed have a look in the Mouse settings.
