My pinch and zoom and other track pad features of my Macbook do not work since I converted to Firefox 4, I have gone into system preferences and all of the trackpad features are properly set up. I can scroll up and down, but that is all

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4.

You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.

browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false

Hi, I have a Mac Book pro from 2010 (4GB/I7 intel processor)

I did all the changes above. Pinch-to-zoom in works fine Pinch to zoom out does not work at all.

I tried copy pasting the command, I tried re-writing it, I tried shutting of the computer, shutting off Firefox...

Thank you for your response.
