Does the Magic Mouse work with a MacBook (early 2008)

Just wondering before I decide to buy it.

As long as bluetooth is installed it depends more on software level.  Since you show as 10.6.7 then a definite yes.
Here are the software requirements:
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0* or Mac OS X v10.6.1 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0
Note that the update isn't needed with 10.6.2 and later because it's already included.

  • Does the Magic Mouse work with Macbook pros?

    I've read on a website that the Magic Mouse only works with the iMacs they ship with.
    So, no Macbooks?
    Can someone confirm this?

    I just got my magic mouse and it indeed does work with my 2.8ghz MBP.
    HOWEVER, none of the scrolling features seem to work. The mouse connected to my bluetooth without any problems, it left and right clicks fine but zero touch surface scrolling seems to work.
    Tried reconnecting, on/off, computer restart etc. and no love from the magic mouse whatsoever.
    I'm all ears for any solutions.

  • HT4111 does the magic mouse pair with an ipad?

    Does the magic mouse work with an ipad?

    bburik, I do not think so. Ipad is all touch screen, and the pointer will not show up on the ipad. The ipad is made to only be touch screen. But what you can do, is buy an external keyboard for the ipad, and then you can at least type with an actuall keyboard. But no magic mouse.

  • Does the magic mouse work in windows?

    so youre telling me all i gotta do is install the lastest bootcamp updates and thats it? its compatible?
    what about a non mac computer like a sony vaio for example, does it work there?
    Yes, it is compatible with Windows via Boot Camp on your Mac. I have been using it ever since it had come out. I love it! It has proved to be the best mouse that I have ever used.
    As for using it with a Sony VAIO, it will not work unless you have the specific drivers. At best, you will get limited functionality.

  • Is it possible to use the Apple wireless keyboard with the iPhone 6? Will the Magic Mouse work with iMovie on iPhone6 Plus?

    iPhone 6 page says that iMovie is a (free) application available for iPhone 6. When I use it on the desktop I need a mouse. Should I expect all controls to be touch-sensitive, or is it possible to use the wireless Magic Mouse? Similarly, if I want to type an email or a long document, is it possible to use the Mac wireless keyboard to enter text? With the iPhone 6 Plus taking over for laptops (phablet), it seems to me that input tools are relevant. Maybe what I'm asking is whether the iPhone6 (OS8) has drivers for these devices. Please advise.

    Apps that are designed for iOS devices such as the iOS version of iMovie are intended to be used entirely by touch. It's worth noting that iMovie for iOS is not absolutely identical to iMovie for Mac OS.

  • Will the Magic Mouse Work with the new iPad?

    I know it can work with the wireless keyboard.... but will it work with the mighty mouse?

    You could argue that the iPad doesn't have a use for an external keyboard either. Yet it supports one. And truth be told this is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, reasons having optional mouse support would be nice.
    You see when typing on an external keyboard you have to reach up and over to tap the iPad. This gets tiring rather quickly. Ironically this is the very reason Steve Jobs argued that touchscreens don't work for notebook computers. A mouse would be more ergonomically sound in this situation. Also the method for selecting text with your finger kind of slow.
    As for the lack of a mouse cursor.... as unsanctioned software tweaks have proven, one could easily be added while the mouse is connected.

  • Will the Apple Magic Mouse work with my Mac Mini?

    Hi
    I have a mid 2007 Mac mini — the Model 2,1 — running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, 10•6•8
    I’m thinking of treating myself to the Apple Magic Mouse, or Trackpad.
    Will the Magic Mouse, work with this model and version of the OS … ?
    (I’m ALSO told I need to have Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0: how do I go about checking that I do … ?)

    I'm not sure about the 2007 mini, but a quick check is to open your system preferences and look for Bluetooth preferences.  If there aren't any, then no magic mouse for you...

  • HT5628 Does it work with a macbook (aluminium) 2008 late, even if it isn't said in the desription? Windows 7 also did run, but wasn't in the list of working models for windows 7...

    Does it work with a macbook (aluminium) 2008 late, even if it isn't said in the desription? Windows 7 also did run, but wasn't in the list of working models for windows 7 either...

    JK90, I have boot camp on my Mountain Lion late-2008 unibody running 64 bit Windows 8, with a brand new ssd and 8gigs of ram. Although my scenario is officially unsupported, it works great. My 4+ yr old mac is the best PC I've ever owned :-)
    There are a number of complications during and after installation, and you need to do a lot of research to make sure you get it right. I worked long and hard to get everything running just right.
    Even after Windows was installed I had even more trouble with my drivers, and getting especially getting the trackpad to work properly, so I needed to use a regular mouse until I could get the trackpad on.
    Also check out trackpad++, I've been using it for years now, it upgrades the trackpad drivers from apple and makes using Windows much nicer.

  • Does Magic Mouse work with ipad air?

    Does Magic Mouse work with IPad Air?

    Yes, it is a Bluetooth device. However, my iPad will not connect to the mouse.  Not sure why.
    I use my iPad as my personal computer. Mainly for surfing the web, social media, paying bills online... I already have a Bluetooth keyboard that connects to the iPad, so thought it would be nice to have a mouse.

  • My Imac late 2012 running Yosemite does not recognise my Huawei 3g usb modem. itried to install Java bt still it does not although the same modem works with my MacBook pro . any help please

    My Imac late 2012 running Yosemite does not recognise my Huawei 3g usb modem. itried to install Java bt still it does not although the same modem works with my MacBook pro . any help please

    Hey there mbarikiwa,
    If your iMac still has not recognized the usb modem, I would use the troubleshooting for Yosemite USB issues in the following article:
    OS X Yosemite: If a USB device isn’t working
    If the device is connected to a USB hub: 
    Make sure the device and the hub are the same speed. Connect USB 3.0 SuperSpeed devices to a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed HUB, USB 2.0 Hi-Speed devices to a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub, and so on. 
    If the device doesn’t have a power cord and is plugged into another USB device that doesn’t have a power cord: 
    Try plugging the device directly into your computer’s USB port  or into a USB device that does have a power cord. You might need to disconnect and reconnect the other device as well, if it has stopped responding. 
    If you have many devices connected to your Mac: 
    Disconnect all USB devices except the device you’re testing, an Apple keyboard, and an Apple mouse. Make sure that the device is connected directly to the computer, and that any hubs or extension cables are disconnected. If you can use the device now, the problem may be with one of the other USB devices or hubs you had connected to your computer. Try reconnecting them, one by one, to your computer. When you find the device causing the problem, review its documentation for further troubleshooting steps. 
    Verify that the device appears in System Information: 
    Choose Apple menu > About This Mac. In the window that appears, click Overview, then click the System Report button to open System Information. 
    In the window that appears, see if the USB device is listed below Hardware in the Contents list. If the device appears but does not work, review the device’s documentation for further troubleshooting steps. 
    Restart apps: 
    Quit and restart any apps that use the device. 
    Restart your Mac: 
    Choose Apple menu > Restart.
    Check your device’s USB connection
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    Does the Ipod touch work with airplay mirroring?

    No. Only iPhone 4S and iPad (2nd or 3rd Gen) as it requires more processing power. You can still use airplay with your device though.

  • Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

    I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

    Hello Ian,
    Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
    Thanks - Genevieve
