Bluetooth Mouse Clicks Not Responding.

I have charged my batteries they are 100%, the mouse moves around but clicks do nothing. Went from intermittant to no click response now.
I've disconnected it, reconnected it, checked the batteries, checked my settings, restarted my iMac, looked in here for similar issues but none that have helped.
I do hope someone can help as I'm working on some images in photoshop and using my trackpad is just not as quick for me.
Thanks in advance!

Wasn't entirely sure resetting the pram would help because I use a trackpad and it responds fine to that. Went to the apple store and went through elimination and well looks like the sensor has given up which would make sense as it was intermittent before it died. Now £60 lighter but have a new mouse :( apparently it wa cheaper to buy a new one than fix it.

Spaces problem: mouse clicks not responding

Since upgrading to 10.5.3 I have a recurring problem where after changing screens in Spaces my mouse no longer accepts clicks. I can move the mouse normally, but when I click there is no response and I hear the error alert sound as if the mouse were disabled by an alert or something similar. The only way to get back to normal is to reboot.
This happens with both my wireless mouse and with the USB mouse so I don't think it's hardware related. I've tried force quitting all open applications and restarting the Finder to no avail. It has happened during operation of several different apps so it's not related to any specific application software. I tried disabling any non-apple pref panes as well.
Anybody got any hints? I'd hate to give up Spaces, I've grown accustomed to it's interface.

I have a similar problem, not exactly the same.
I can switch screens just fine all day long. My weird mouse behavior comes from dragging an application from one space to another. I use a secondary monitor and after I get "locked out", I am only "locked out" from my main monitor. On my secondary monitor, I can continue to click applications and interact with them. On the primary monitor (MBP screen), Any application I click on actually loses focus. Similarly I can move the mouse over items in the dock, and they expand/shrink, but I cannot click on any of them.
In no case have I heard an alert to suggest that the mouse has been disabled though.
I have corrected this only by restarting.
I hope this gets fixed. I hadn't noticed it before about 2 or 3 weeks ago, but it has happened to me twice within the last 2 days and once before that about a week ago(?).

Targus bluetooth mouse will not connect in bootcamp

I have a Targus blueetooth mouse that will not connect in bootcamp. It has worked fine for a long time in XP and 7. Then I upgraded the haddrive and had to do a lean install of Windows 7 and the Apple bootcamp 5. Now it will not connect at all. I have the "Apple Broadcom Built-in Bluetooth" seleted , it sees the mouse but it tries to connect and just stalls. This is very frustrating since without the mouse it is nearly impossible to troubleshoot Windows.

Bluetooth mouse will not connect my wireless mouse...
what works +every time+ for me :
use your fingers to move the cursor up to the bluetooth icon (top right of display)
click bluetooth icon, select user mouse / connect
then quickly move the cursor up (with fingers) so it touches or is very close to the bluetooth icon
and start clicking with your mouse (making sure the mouse is on obviously).
I have NO idea why but this works on my MacBookPro everytime. If I try to connect without moving the cursor near the BT icon it won't connect (or takes at least 10 trys).

Mouse clicks not recognized?

I have a 20" iMac w/ the most recent updates. In the past couple of days I have a problem with mouse clicks not being recognized. It seems to happen when I begin to fill in a text field either in Safari or the Finder (like trying to enter username/password, to authenticate in the finder, etc) The wierd thing is that this only happens on one of the two user accounts on this computer. I have also created a new user account and it is fine. I've looked for applications that are different, but can't find any. I have repaired permissions and repaired the disk through disk utility.
I am at the end of my rope! Please help!

I somehow managed to fix it, for now. I think I ended up resetting the PRAM. I gave up trying software solutions and unplugged everything, including the iMac's power cable, and cleaned up the mess of cables behind my desk because I needed some time to think. After starting up the computer, everything seems to be fine. If the problem comes back, I'll post here again. Thanks for the suggestion!

Microsoft Designer Bluetooth Mouse is not detected in 10.10.3

Microsoft Designer Bluetooth Mouse is not getting detected as a bluetooth mouse on OSX 10.10.3. During pairing, it just shows up as a bluetoth device and after some time, there is a popup that no mouse is connected. Also, when you try to add the mouse though Mouse->Add a Bluetooth Mouse screen, the mouse is not gettng detected.
But the mouse works once its paired, but its not seen as a Mouse by OSX. Its just being detected as a generic bluetooth device.

Its listed in the data sheet for the product. But the microsoft site does not show the same in compatibility list

Mouse does not respond to clicks for 10mins after startup

When I start my iMac I have to wait at least 10mins before it will respond to any mouse-clicks, the mouse will move but not register any clicks. The same is true for the keyboard; it does not register any input for at least 10mins.
This has only started happening since I upgraded to Lion.
It is a third-party mouse (Labtec) and a Mac keyboard, mouse plugged into keyboard, keyboard plugged into Mac, I've tried a diferent USB port to no avail, I also have a pen tablet connected, again this registers movement but not clicks, this is connected to a different USB port to the keyboard/mouse.
After approx 10mins. all previous mouse-clicks or keyboard entries register. I've tried disabling USBOverdrive but this makes no difference (and I have it running on my Macbook without issue)
Interestingly though, if I restart the iMac I don't have the same trouble, it's only when I start it from not having been used for a short while or if it crashes and I have to force it off with the power button (this happened while typing this message for the first time since installing Lion, blue and white stripy screen).
24" iMac, Mac OS X v10.7, 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 3GB memory.
Thanks in advance,
Simon
NB Just crashed again, white screen this time...

See if changing the batteries helps.

Bluetooth Mouse can not connect...

Hi All, I am aware this is an issue however can not figure out how to resolve it. I have a 2007 macbook 2.16 dual core I'm using a bluetooth mouse which works perfectly with Mac OSX Lion. However when I switch to Bootcamp running Windows 7 64 bit, the mouse can not connect. The computer will find the mouse but when I click on the mouse icon in the bluetooth setup to continue installation the circle spins and spins and says connecting to device and nothing happens. The mouse works and bluetooth works, but not in bootcamp. I am tech savy so hit me with your best shot. Thank you!!

Vnahaze2000, I still haven't figured out the problem. Try this website, it's from apple. There are drivers you can install which will hopefully alleviate your problem. I downloaded every driver and unfortunatelly no luck. But maybe it will help you. http://support.apple.com/downloads/#macoscomponents Good luck!!

Webi: Mouse clicks not working

Hi
I am using BO XI 3.1, Webi 12. .1.0.882 client. It is not responding to mouse clicks although I can use keyboards to open the universe e.g.(even for logon).
Any ideas why is this happening and how to sort this?
Thanks for all help.

I have the same problem some times.
This is going to sound crazy, but try this:
1. Lay the mouse down like you would if you were going to use it.
2. Use you index finger and "bang" on the mouse like you were mad at it. Hit it where the primary button (left side for me) is. Don't be too aggressive.
3. It should work. It has always worked for me.
4. It also helps to clean the track ball. I just run the track ball back and forth on my jeans.
Good luck!
P.S. I do not think this will void any warranty, just don't tell Apple!

Bluetooth magicMouse & keyboard not responding after sleep mode

Hello,
I recently upgraded from Lion to Mavericks (10.9.1).
A very annoying bug happens every time the macbook pro exists from sleep mode.
In this situation, when the mac wakes up, Bluetooth devices (magic mouse & wireless keyboard) do not respond. Since I am using the mac in clamshell mode with external monitor, this is very annoying because I have to open the laptop, and turn on/off Bluetooth manually.
Sometimes the same problem arises for the internet wifi connection, which do not reconnect.
I am very surprised of this bug.
Does anyone have the same issue?
I was thinking to do a clean installation, as suggested in some posts, but I don’t believe this will solve the issue.
This issue HAS NEVER APPENED in Lion.
Thanks for support.
Alberto

** SOLVED ***
If you have a early 2011 MBP, the optibay SATA is a 6GB bit is really support 3GB/s only.
If you have a 6GB SSD, install it in the ORIGINAL adapter and the original SSD in the optibay.
This will **SOLVE** the issue.

Mouse clicks not detected on JTabbedPane

Hi all,
I have a JPanel placed inside a JTabbedPane. I want to double-click on the JPanel and bring up a JDialog. This works fine if the JPanel is not in a JTabbedPane, but if it is on a JTabbedPane, then the mouse clicks are not detected. I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give me.

Here is a sample program that seems to work:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
public class TestInternalFrame extends JFrame
     public TestInternalFrame()
          JDesktopPane desktop = new JDesktopPane();
          setContentPane( desktop );
          JInternalFrame internal = new JInternalFrame( "Internal Frame" );
          desktop.add( internal );
          internal.setLocation( 50, 50 );
          internal.setSize( 300, 300 );
          internal.setVisible( true );
          JTabbedPane tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane();
          internal.getContentPane().add(tabbedPane);
          tabbedPane.setPreferredSize( new Dimension(300, 200) );
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          tabbedPane.add( "Empty Panel", panel );
          panel.addMouseListener( new MouseAdapter()
               public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
                    System.out.println(e.getClickCount());
     public static void main(String args[])
TestInternalFrame frame = new TestInternalFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setVisible(true);

My apple bluetooth mouse is not being recognized by my macbook air - and it was yesterday!

My apple bluetooth mouse was working perfectly with my macbook air until I had to change the batteries. Now it is not discoverable and I really can't operate without a mouse. I tried another logitech usb mouse and that was not discoverable either. Please help!

Today, when I turned on my iMac, neither my bluetooth mouse or keyboard were recognized. I had to connect my old USB keyboard-mouse to type this message.
And yes, I restarted my iMac, didn't help.
Can someone help?
PS: Barry, "resetting SMC" doesn't help
