Can't bind mouse buttons in games

Hi!
I have HP 5-Button Optical Confort Mouse bought by a friend.
I installed the driver and it works really great so far, but i have a problem: my 4 and 5 buttons.
In a browser, they work. Their function is Forward and Backward and they work, but when i try to bind them into a game(for example, i tried to bind them in Smite and Dishonored), it doesen't bind anything. When it ask me to press the button i want to bind, i press any of them and nothing happens.
Do you know any way to solve the problem, please?

I suggest installing the driver for the mouse.  You will have to choose the appropriate one from two choices; one for English speaking countries and one for other countries.  This problem can be caused by many things.  It is normally software related.  Installing the driver for the mouse is a good place to begin.  In some instances, it can be incompatibility with the game source code.

  • Iphoto ver 8.1.2 unable to open iphoto. can hold down mouse button and 1 page of iphoto will open. click anywhere on screen and iphoto closes

    Cannot open iPhoto. It's on the toolbar, but will not open. I can hold the mouse over the icon and hold the mouse button down and iPhoto will open to a thumbnail photo, but if I click anywhere on the page, iPhoto closes. iPhoto shows open on top of page, but practically all selectable items are gray.

    It sounds like the window might have slipped down below the Dock or similar. Try change your screen resolution and (SystemPreferneces -> Displays) and that should force it back into reach. The return the resolution to whatever it was.

  • How can I disable the mouse button 4 and 5 "forward" and "back" functions through firefox?

    I've seen this problem come up on forums before but was unable to find a good solution.
    When using Ventrilo, I have my speak button bound to the mouse button 4 of my logitech mouse. This button is conveniently placed for gaming because it makes use of my otherwise unused right thumb, and I have been using it for years and probably couldn't adjust if i tried to change it.
    Firefox uses mouse button 4 for the "back" function, meaning that if i'm on ventrilo while browsing the web with firefox, i have to remember to move the cursor to the menu bar at the bottom of my screen or go back a page. it's infuriating if i forgot, especially if i'm playing some sort of browser game at the time, as i basically have to restart whatever i'm doing.
    The only solutions i've found for this involve binding mouse button 4 to some other (rarely used) key, which is an annoying solution at best, or changing some vital computer files, which I dont have the expertise to do myself and dont trust anyone else to do for me. It's an absolutely unacceptable solution anyway: why should i have to change my computer's files to disable a function which should be editable through firefox?
    does anyone know how this can be fixed? or know how we can get mozilla to put this feature into some future patch, as other people have been asking them to do for YEARS?

    This can be a highly frustrating problem. I just spent 45 minutes working on an email. Nearing the end I go to grab my mouse after typing and accidentally hit mouse 4 and lose everything. This isn't the first time I have lost work or an email. I would say the ONLY reason why there currently lacks a strong feedback against this is because the majority of people do not have mouse 4+5 buttons on their mice. Please add the option to just disable this "feature". It's just far to easy to accidentally hit these buttons accidentally and potentially lose a lot. I don't know anyone who actually uses these buttons anyways.

  • IMac 21.5 inch mid 2011 white screen when I wake it,  holding down mouse button and sweeping the screen restores the desktop.  Any one else had this and what was the solution?

    When the Mac is awaken from sleep mode the screen is white.  I can hold the mouse button down and sweep the screen and the desktop reappears and everything works as normal..This just started and I am concerned that some hardware, video card or video memory is failing.  Has anyone else had this problem and what was the solution?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem.  Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Can't get extra mouse buttons to do anything

    When I first used my macbook air with my logitech usb mouse, the computer asked me what the uses of the two buttons on the side were. I can't remember what I did, but whatever it was it must have been wrong. I assumed I would be able to change that later if I actually needed them. Now, I need the use of the buttons, but whenever I open a program to bind keys, pressing either of the buttons results in the same input as if I'd pressed the middle click - rendering them both useless. I trawled through system preferences but can't find where to separate the buttons or even if that's what I need to do. Help?

    System preferences, Mouse for the main settings.  As far as the other buttons, there is usually a configuration program provided by the mouse manufacturer. 
    If you go to mission control, you can also select extra mouse buttons to open spaces, expose, etc.

  • [Solved] Binding a mouse button to control

    Hi. I'm searching for a way to bind a mouse button to act exactly like Control.
    If you would like to bind Caps Lock to act as Control you would do the following for example:
    remove lock = Caps_Lock
    add Control = Caps_Lock
    keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
    It appears that xmodmap doesn't work this way for mouse buttons this way however.
    The motivation for this is to have convenient key-bindings for an old game which doesn't support remapping.
    Thanks!

    That worked perfectly, thanks!
    The wiki mentions something about not(?) using the evdev driver in X. However no modifications were necessary here.

  • How can I disable mouse shortcuts (mission control, etc) in games?

    I just installed the new Deus Ex: Human Revolution from the App Store and I'd like to use the miltiple mouse buttons my  Logitech mouse has in my game. I can set up the controls to use various buttons in the game, but I also have the same mouse buttons set up in the System Preferences to be used for mouse shortcuts. The problem is, when I try to use the game, the "All Applications" or the "Show Desktop" shortcuts kick in instead of the games setup controls.
    How can I disable the Mouse Shortcuts for the system while I'm in the game?

    Forgive me... I should have said:
    How do I permenantly disable the shortcuts only while in the game, without having to redo my System Preferences every time I start or stop my game?

  • How can I get the middle mouse button to work with the toolbar button?

    Yesterday firefox stopped responding to middle-mouse clicks made in the bookmarks toolbar. Middle mouse buttons still work in web pages.

    Hi,
    Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

  • How can I disable right/left mouse buttons and scroll wheel in PDF?

    Hi all,
    I want the user to have to click on "forward" and "back" buttons that I've created in the PDF, in order to move around in it. Is there any way to disable the mouse buttons and scroll wheel from allowing users to go back and forth?
    Also, a separate question: I want the user to click on embedded images and receive either a pop-up comment, or be re-directed to another page in the PDF. Is there any way to set this up?
    Thanks for your time!

    You can achieve what you want in Question 1, just not via scripting.  You would need to create a plug-in in C/C++ that would be installed on the client machine.  Other than that option, try67 is correct - there is no way to achieve this from the document-level.

  • I am left-handed. I can use a mouse with my right hand well, but for a certain drawing app named Sketchbook Express I would love to reverse the buttons on my mouse. Is there any way to do that?

    Seriously. Can someone direct me to that setting, or add it?

    Well, in later OSes, Mouse buttons can be switched in the Mouse Pref Pane, no idea if Magic Mice work like that.

  • Spaces can no longer be activated by a mouse button

    I used to have Spaces activated by mouse button 4. This no longer works, even though it is still configured as such.
    I know that SL is detecting my mouse properly, because button 4 works for other things. For example, I can assign mouse button 4 to "show desktop", and this works. So I believe it is a Spaces issue, not a mouse driver issue.
    I have also tried assigning other mouse buttons (3, 5) to activate spaces, and it still does not work.
    I can activate spaces using my keyboard or clicking on the dock icon.

    Similar problem. I had "Activate Spaces" set to ^0. It stopped working after 10.6.1 update and no matter what I set it to, or whether or not the checkbox under Keyboard Shortcuts is on or off it will not work. Error sound (Ping) and, if in a finder window, selects the first item in the window. I know the key is getting through without getting caught by the right handler.
    Is there a way (Terminal? Xcode?) to dig to the definition and see why ^1 will take me to space 1, etc. but only the main "Activate" won't?

  • How do you get a cd out of the imac g5 drive if the computer doesn't know it's in there.  I've tried shutting it off and holding the mouse button, but nothing works because the computer can't eject what it isn't registering to be there in the first place.

    I can't get access to the cd that is probably slid past where it is supposed to go.  The computer doesn't note it is in there.  This happened once before and I used another cd to tap it into place, and then I could eject the cd.  It's a library music cd and nothing I've done to eject it, works.  The dvd drive is empty to the computer, even though I've tried to trick it by getting it to burn a cd or dvd.  It says insert disc.  Hope someone knows how to pop it into place or open the thing up to get access to the drive.  That cd is due! 

    power off your machine.  hold down your left mouse button.  power on your machine.  This should eject the cd.
    Eject cd
    Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.
    http://www.osxfaq.com/dailytips/01-2003/01-16.ws
    You indicate you are running on a g5, but 10.6 doesn't run on on a G5.
    On a PowerPC-based Macintosh (but not an Intel-based Macintosh), you may use Open Firmware to eject a CD or DVD disc when normal methods for ejecting it have not succeeded.
    Immediately after the startup sound, press and hold the key combination Command-Option-o-f. Enter commands:
    eject cd

  • I can not open the bookmarks tab or use the right mouse button in firefox

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1053467 /questions/1053467]''
    I recently downloaded firefox to my new laptop. I can not open the bookmarks tab or use any of the right mouse button options.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    *Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • Can I set my middle mouse button to pan?

    Is it possible in Preferences to set my middle mouse button to temporarily become the "hand" tool so that I can pan?
    I switch back and forth between InDesign CS3 and AutoCAD, and my middle mouse button is PAN in CAD. It drives me crazy to switch back and forth. I'd love it if I could make them the same.
    I know that I can use the space bar, but I'm lazy and I've developed habits after using CAD exclusively for the last 3 years. I just started using IND again at my new job so this is the first time I've really had to switch between the two.

    Check with mouse manufacturer. There is nothing in InDesign you can set
    for that.
