This article covers the multi-touch gestures you can use on a trackpad on your Mac, and their functions.
If you place two fingers on the trackpad and swipe up or down, you can scroll within the page/content you are viewing. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use one finger.
Smart Zoom
If you double tap the trackpad with two fingers, Safari will 'smart zoom.' Smart zoom means that Safari will zoom in so that the column of content your cursor is over will fill the width of the window. Repeat the gesture to zoom back out. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use one finger.
Navigating
If you swipe with two fingers from left to right, you can navigate between pages. For example, in Safari, you can navigate between the next and previous webpages. In iBooks, you can turn the page in the book you are reading. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use one finger.
If you place two fingers on the trackpad and spread them apart (like a reverse pinch motion), you can zoom in. The further you spread your fingers, the more it zooms in. Bring your fingers together in a pinching motion to zoom out. The pinch to zoom gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Mission Control
If you place three fingers on the trackpad and swipe up, Mission Control is revealed1. If you are using a Magic Mouse, double tap with two fingers instead. To leave Mission Control, repeat the same gesture, except swipe down. On the Magic Mouse, repeat the same gesture you used to access Mission Control.
Mission Control gives you a view of all the application windows you have open on your Mac. Mission Control will group windows by applications. If you want to expand a group of windows to see them all, swipe upward with two fingers on the trackpad. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use one finger.
Mission Control will also let you navigate between multiple screens (applications running in full screen mode, or additional spaces). To go to the screen to the left or right of the current screen, horizontally swipe with three fingers on the trackpad. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use two fingers.
If you place two fingers on the trackpad and swipe from right to left, you can show Notification Center2. Make sure you begin the swipe from the right edge of the trackpad. Swipe from left to right to dismiss Notification Center. The Notification Center gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Spaces
If you place three fingers on the trackpad and swipe horizontally, you can navigate between full-screen apps and spaces. Swiping from right to left will go to the screen to the left of the current one. Swiping from left to right will go to the screen to the right. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use two fingers.
NOTE: Dashboard also counts as a 'space.' It is to the left of the main desktop screen.
If you place three fingers near the upper right of the trackpad and one finger near the lower left, and then bring them together in a pinching motion, you can access Launchpad1. To exit Launchpad, make a reverse pinching motion (spread your fingers apart) with the same fingers. The Launchpad gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Launchpad provides an alternate interface to view all of your applications in. You can rearrange applications and even group them into folders, all within Launchpad. To swipe between multiple Launchpad pages, swipe horizontally to the left or right with two fingers on your trackpad. If you are using a Magic Mouse, just use one finger.
If you want to move an application onto a different page, just click and drag it to the edge of the screen, and wait a second or two. You should then be on the next page.
If you place your thumb and three fingers in the center of the trackpad and spread them apart, all windows will fly off the screen so you can see you desktop. Make a pinching motion (bring your fingers together) with the same fingers to bring the windows back to the screen. The Desktop gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Exposé
If you place three fingers on the trackpad and swipe downwards, you can see a preview of all of the windows you have open, even if they are in another space. Swipe in the opposite direction to exit Exposé. The Exposé gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Look up a Word
If you are using OS X Lion, and you double tap with three fingers on the trackpad, you can see information from the dictionary, thesaurus, and from Wikipedia about the word that your cursor is on. If you are using any version of Mac OS X other than Lion, you only need to single tap with three fingers. The Look up gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
Safari Tabs
If you place two fingers on the trackpad and make a pinching motion while in Safari, you can get a view of your Safari tabs2. The Safari tab view gesture does not work with the Magic Mouse.
This Safari tabs view gives you a view of all of your tabs with a live preview window of each. To scroll through tabs, swipe horizontally to the left or right with two fingers. To exit this view, make a reverse pinch motion, or click on a tab.
1. Requires OS X Lion (10.7) or later.
2. Requires OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) or later.
