Mighty Mouse will not scroll horizontally uder 10.3.9 why???

Hi all
I was trying out my Mighty Mouse under 10.3.9 and it's not scrolling horizontally and on Apple support sight it said that it should scroll horizontally and vertically but it just doesn't scroll horizontally why is this? I have tried it on 10.4.10 and no problem here so I know that the scroll ball works and not broken. Is it a software/hardware "glitch" under 10.3.9 or a typo in part of Apple and if not how can I make it scroll horizontally under 10.3.9????
Thanks!!!!!
PS: Here's what Apple says in they're "Support" section:
+*If you use Mighty Mouse on a computer with Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier, the mouse offers the following functionality:*+
+*Primary and secondary button functions are assigned to left and right buttons respectively*+
+*Vertical and horizontal scrolling is enabled (scrolling can't be disabled)*+
+*Can activate Exposé from the Exposé pane in System Preferences*+

I believe the booklet that came with the mouse explains what features work with each version of Mac OS X (I can't remember the page - I don't have the booklet to hand at the moment); I would expect the scroll ball to work with 10.3.9...

    We need far more information.
    Has it previously scrolled horizontally?   Is the fault restricted to certain browsers or program facilities?   What machine are you using it on?    Has this problem appeared following an OS upgrade.

  • Mighty Mouse will not scroll up!

    I didn't know where to post this but since this is the most popular place for the mighty mouse, I decided to post here.
    Does anyone have any ideas how to get the little scroll ball to scroll up?
    It stopped working last night.
    It will scroll down but not up.
    Any suggestions!!!!
    Thanks,
    Sam

    Mine has stopped scrolling down - - again.
    I first thought it was a mechanical thing - dirt or something in the mechanism.
    Once, though, a reboot got it working.
    Now it only scrolls up, not down.
    Even when it was working, the scroll up was smooth, but the scroll down was jerky and uneven.
    If it continues, I will return it for a replacement.
    This seems to be one Apple's flops.

  • Mighty Mouse will not scroll

    I've had this wireless Mighty Mouse for almost a year now and it won't scroll down. I've read how to clean it but it still won't work. Does anyone know how to take it apart so I can get at the scroll wheels. On other mouse's I've had this is what I needed to do to clean the wheels so it would scroll again. But with this MM I can't see anyway to take it apart.
    I love the mouse, but can't see spending 75 bucks a year to replace it.

    If you dont want to open your mouse, get a small can of contact cleaner from Radio Shack or similar. While holding down the ball with a finger nail spray switch cleaner into the gap created by depressing the ball. Immediately roll the ball in all directions to clean the contacts within. Repeat two or three times and you should be back in business for a couple of months. Contact cleaner is expensive so get a small can, it will last you a long time. It the can comes with a small spray tube (usually attached to the side of the can) use it as it will help to get the cleaner to where it is needed most.

  • TS2662 trackpad and mouse will not scroll

    On 27" iMac using OS 10.7.4, trackpad and mouse will not scroll or swipe, can point with both, click only with mouse, scroll only with keys on keyboard.  What have I done now??? They are all paired with good batteries. Have checked in settings and they are enabled to scroll.

    In Lion the scrolling is natural i.e. reversed to the way that computers typically scroll. Think of the scroll as grabbing the page an moving it either up or down vs moving the scroll bar down up or down. Also, the scroll bars are "hidden" by default and only show up when you are scrolling.
    Are you using and Apple mouse? If you go to the system preferences and then to the "mouse" section there are options to change the natural scrolling. And if you go to System Preferences and then to "general" you can set it to show or hide the scroll bars.
    If this is not what the issue is let me know and let me know what mouse you are using because there is something else that it could be.

    You have to remember, where the scroll ball is, there is a small gap which picks up dust and fluff.   That detritus gets everywhere and in your case affects the downward scroll.  
    Adding just a touch Linc Davis's suggestion, after you have vigorously rubbed the scroll ball on the pad, tap it on a hard surface from time to time.   Sometimes you will see small amounts of fluff appear.   You should also see dirty marks on the pad.

  • 10.10.1 magic mouse will not scroll now

    10.10.1 magic mouse will not scroll now
    anyone else having this problem
    mouse works... is recognized but the preference pane
    has not swipe selection and i cannot turn off bluetooth

    To resolve this issue try the following:
    from the upper left corner of your screen click:
    1.  / system preferences / bluetooth
    2. Locate your mouse under the devices panel
    3. Remove your mouse
    Click on it so it is highlighted in blue
    Click in the blue "x" or you can click delete after you have selected your mouse.
    4. Reconnect your mouse (re "pair" ) your mouse
    This should resolve the scrolling issue if it occurred after the 10.10.1 update.

  • Satellite L655-S5060 mouse will not scroll

    Just had to have a new hard drive installed and now the touchpad mouse will not scroll.  I don't see anything in the mouse properties to "turn it on".  I have tried updating driver and it says it is up to date.  Windows 7.  Thanks in advance!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Were these the drivers you tried updating?

    You could also try going into the "Advanced" tab of "Mouse Properties," clicking "Advanced feature settings..." and then restoring defaults. I agree that there doesn't seem to be anything about the normal scrolling, but maybe something is interfering.
    If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, you can try contacting support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

    My Mac OS X 10.4.8 wireless mouse will not scroll UP.  It's been cleaned and works well in all other aspects.  Is it just time to get another one, or can this problem be fixed?

    I used iPad forum because the only other choice was iMac..... there is no forum for the Mouse.  Suggestions as to where I can go?

  • My mouse will not scroll down pages in Firefox 4 and up.

    The scroll wheel on the mouse no longer works in any version of Firefox from version 4 and up. None of the suggestions I have seen in responses to similar questions do not work. The only thing that works is to downgrade to version 3.6.20 or lower. I am presently using Firefox 6 with Windows XP SP3.

    I have the same problem, the mouse is incompatible with Safari for Windows and MAC. I have instalkled the latest drivers and yet no joy. Switched to my old Logitech M305 and everything works fine. Also my MS Wheel mouse (Corded) works just fine too. After many tries the MS 4000 Wireless mous will not work with safari.
    Why the incompatibility? It surely is software related and seems to be related to the mouse driver.
