Apple's
El Capitan update comes with a
force touch technology. This technology allows you to interact with your device by exerting different levels of finger pressure on the touchscreen or trackpad. If you'd like to turn off the clicking sound that accompanies this update, here's a quick tutorial on how to do so.
N.B. This tip only applies to Macs equipped with
Force Touch trackpads.
El Capitan's Silent Clicking Option
Click on the
Apple menu, and go to your
System Preferences. Click on the
Trackpad option, followed by
Point & Click.
Tick the
Silent clicking checkbox to mute the click sounds. You can also clear the
Force Click and haptic feedback checkbox to disable the haptics (vibration).
