MacBook problems with trackpad?

Hi, i just got a MacBook Pro. It is brand new. Everything seems to be functioning correctly, except the trackpad, (i cant swipe, or click on it). i can use the button at the bottom of the trackpad (that clicks), but i cant tap on the trackpad itself to click. I dont know why this is happening.

    I agree, just change the sensitivity level on the trackpad. Here is how you do it...

    Check in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > Trackpad options... button > Check that the Double-Click speed isn't set to fast.

    Because the trackpad isn't working though, connect a mouse to the laptop to change the settings.
