Have lost upward scrolling on Apple mouse

All of a sudden, can continue to scroll down, left and right, but not up. Is this likely to be a mouse hardware problem or software? If hardware, how on earth do I get into the Apple mouse?? (I'm using the mouse that came with this iMac, and up to press, I have been delighted with it.)

this happens to me occasionally, its annoying. however ive always got it to work again by turning it over and rubbing it fairly vigourously on a sheet of paper in a circular motion.
im positive its just a hardware thing

Is it worth spending another $30 to get the Magic Mouse over the standard Apple Mouse?

After purchacing a new Macbook Air I found that it would be a good investment into a mouse. After looking into the ''mac'' mice I found myself in-between two: the Apple Mouse and the Magic Mouse. I have heard that the standard Apple Mouse is prone to the scrolling ball getting dirty and thought if $30.00 more would be a better investment (no moving parts, wireless...etc). If I could have some view pionts that would be helpfull!

I think the Magic Mouse is better. The mighty mouse scroll wheel get's dirty quickly and then ceases to scroll in one direction or the other. The benefit of the Magic Mouse is that addition gestures are added with Lion.

Can't use non apple mouse with hard drive test?

Having trouble reading an installation CD for a new scanner. Laptop with Tiger fine. Not iMac. So, was trying to run Hardware Test. Inserted disk, restarted with option key down. Image comes up. Can't select anything because Macally mouse won't work in harddrive test mode. Mouse plugged into port on back of computer, not in keyboard. Do I have to find the original apple mouse?
Thanks for help! Judy

It should work, I have a non-Apple mouse that I use for that and it works just fine. Perhaps Macally mouses require special software to run, maybe you should check their web site. I know my Wacom, what I usually use, is completely dead until my login window opens.
So, yeah, I think you need to find the original Apple one.

Nokia you have lost the plot !!

Today nokia suite informs me that today belle is available for down load !! ( Running o2 in uk ) yeah right .not sure o2 have agreed yet nokia site still says awaiting approval !! for my code maybe some one up at nokia aint up to speed to update site ( seems a few up nokia are nt up to speed these days )
Well iv read these forums for years sat back a tried to decipher the good from the bad to the bias peoples posts and to be truthful this belle update sounds pretty grim from the more techy types to the need for biz types of user to the general type user like my self who just wants a GOOD high end phone.
Im running Anna on my N8 00 and its fine stable does what it says on the tin. So how come some geeks from nokia can come along with all the hype an try well it seems sucessfully distroy Anna with this bug laden OS Belle and still be employed.its beyond words Nokia.
Many want a return to Anna but there is no way back (there is if you google to the right sites ) thats not the issue of my post
The issue is .............. DAB yes Nokia " DAB " radio !! do you remember perhaps you may remember the £50+ plus i paid for it Buying the only head set from you that will not work !!! only to read which im pleased i did that the second off last answer on the Belle FAQ page explains that the Dab radio is not available in Belle !!!! so where or wot do i do with these expensive headphones ( come come now readers lets not lower the tone of this site )
so my point is having paid £400 for the phone £50 + for the head phones you expect me at the click of a button to upgrade to a new expirience the expirience being NO DAB RADIO and an expensive new expirience for the drawer..... " the redundant head set" . Come on nokia you really have lost the plot
That apple is starting to look not as bad after all !!!
Neville
Solved!
Go to Solution.

DAB radio should now be available at Nokia Store. Please login to Nokia Store and look for "Nokia DAB Radio".

Apple Mouse Scroll Ball Not Working Since 10.7.4 Supplemental Update

I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but my scroll ball on my Apple Mouse (wired) will no longer scroll upwards since applying the OS 10.7.4 Supplemental Update on the 1st June 2012.
I have a Mac Mini with a 27" Thunderbolt Display running 10.7.4. There are no software updates available and I have tried all the settings available in the system preferences.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Matthew

FWIW, my mighty mouse works w/o issues. See these:

Hi Everybody,
I use an Epson Stylus Office BX320FW printer with my IMac. Since upgrading OSX, I have lost the ability to print and scan. I have downloaded printer drivers from both Epson and Apple. I am using the printer in wifi mode but can not get it print or scan. How do I uninstall the Epson software and start all over again?

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee

TS3988 How can I set up a new icloud account with a new apple id when I have an old account for which I have lost the password and security questions etc

I have changed isp and no longer have access to rescue email addresses and have lost my details. I have set up a new apple id and want to set up icloud with this but cant get past the icloud preferences pane with the old address. How do I get around this?

Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices).
If you then want to sign back in using a different ID, do so on the same screen.

Apple mouse scrolling is too sensitive in Yosemite

I've use a wired USB Apple mouse with scroll ball (A1152) on my iMac 27", and since upgrading to Yosemite, the mouse scrolling has been way too sensitive and doesn't allow any fine adjustment of scrolling speed/acceleration in system preferences. In the Mouse preference pane, the 1st position on the Scrolling slider is way too slow–a full scroll of the bar down moves about 1/4 of a full webpage at native resolution with very slow acceleration. The 2nd slider position is not any faster than the 1st. The 3rd slider position accelerates way, way faster, and scrolls a distance of about 8 full pages using a moderate flick of the scroll ball. At this high sensitivity, I need to scroll fairly carefully to move only one page. In a finder window with 500 items, it accelerates fast enough to move from top of the list to the bottom with less than one full finger swipe of the ball at moderate speed. Any setting from 3-8 on the Scrolling slider is the same speed and acceleration and is way too fast to use in a well-controlled manner. The behavior system-wide and is the same in any browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome). This is nothing like how it behaved in OS X Lion through Mavericks over the past four years. Also, I can set the scrolling slide to the 3rd position, close system preferences, and go back in to find that it has set itself to the 2nd position, but the scrolling behavior is that of the 3rd position until I move the slider again.
I've trashed some .plist files from ~/Library/Preferences/ that I thought would reset things (com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist and others) upon logout/login, but the behavior persists. I've tried a few pieces of software to try to override mouse settings, and while they will affect the mouse tracking speed and acceleration, they don't work well at controlling the scroll speed. I've reset the PRAM and SMC. I've created a new user account. Nothing has allowed usable adjustment of scroll speed/acceleration of the Apple mouse.
Any suggestions on how I can regain in Yosemite the usable adjustment of scroll speed/acceleration that were in all previous OS versions would be appreciated.

Try setting the scroll wheel scaling manually, by running the following command in the Terminal and then logging out and then back in to re-load the settings:
defaults write -g com.apple.scrollwheel.scaling -float VALUE
In this case, try values of 1, 0.5, 0.25, etc, decreasing in half each time to see how the scroll wheel sensitivity responds, and then use the one that works best. Alternatively, you can use the system preferences to set the sensitivity to the two values you have used so far, followed by running the following command between each to see what the value is for each:
defaults read -g com.apple.scrollwheel.scaling
Then you can determine some intermediate value to use, and use the first command above to set it to that value (again followed by logging out and then back in so the value will load).

I have lost my iphone, can i still find out my IMEI number by Apple ID?

I have lost my iphone, can i still find out my IMEI number via Apple ID or iTunes(the lastest version)?

If you backed up your phone to your computer using iTunes, go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and hover your mouse over the name of your backup on the Backups list. If would also be on your box if you still have it.

We have three iPhones but one Apple ID because I pay for the acct whenever we buy Apps or music. However, it's frustrating that when we share iCloud it merges our notes and contacts even if we say "DO NOT MERGE." I've also lost my notes but could not recover them even if I did a restore.

You can share the same iTunes ID on all your devices and still have different iCloud accounts with different IDs on them. The ID you use for iTunes does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
If you want to migrate your devices to separate accounts, on the devices that will be moving save any photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. Also email any synced notes to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account. Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, go to the iWork app settings and turn off iCloud syncing.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Once the phones are all on separate accounts you can then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account.
