Help magic mouse with imac early 2006 (4,1)

Hello i have a problem with my new magic mouse, the mouse lost connection frequently. The old mighty mouse work correctly 100%.
I tried delete the bluetooth preference and start imac with DVD leopard and snow leopard (the mouse don't work in installation gui because lost connection).
This is a known bug? How can i fix it?
Thanks

If you have read my post, I can only recommend -
1) shut everything down and disconnect your Mac at the wall socket, wait about a minute, then plug back in and restart; then
2) remove the batteries and press the silver connector buttons in the battery compartment a few times, replace the batteries, reconnect using the Bluetooth Preferences panel, and
3) repair 'Permissions' using Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities/DIsk Utility)
I don't know if this works but I did all these and the problem has gone away. It least I haven't had the problem for the last ten or so hours now, so there you go.
I think the answer is in either 1 or 2 above, maybe both.

  • So I cannot use iCloud cause I have with one early 2006 iMac, one Macbook Air

    I have two Macs now:
    1 iMac early 2006 (intel core duo)
    1 latest Macbook Air
    So I upgraded my MobileMe to iCloud in my Macbook Air and I syncronized my info. But when I use my iMac (i cannot install lion cause it doesn't accept core duos) I cannot have the syncronized info!! Because I cannot have iCloud installed on my Snow Leopard!!
    So when I was doig everything smoothly with MobileMe (keeping syncronized two macs) now I cannot cause iCloud couldn't be installed on Snow Leopard of my iMac.
    WHY?? Apple instead of simplifing things (as they were doing not long time ago) now it gets things more complicated!!!

    But this wasn't the way apple were doing things!! I can see that you are a new apple user,
    this is the mentality which apple styaed always away: old tecnology!! it's just a crap! I am a paying MobileMe (or call it .Mac) customer since 2005.
    and it is not about tecnology!! they can simply still allow installing iCloud on Snow leopards!! and using it could be allowed who owns another Lion computer or IPhone ios5!

  • **New iMac (early 2006) forum now available

    Hey all,
    There is now officially a forum for all topics, questions, etc, about the new iMac, with the Intel Core Duo chip, that was released today. **Please post all question there, as this forum is for the iMac with the IBM PowerPC G5 processor.**
    Edit, I suppose a link would help iMac (early 2006) Forums.
    Kyle-

    Thanks for your encouraging report. I want both my computers (and the iPhone) to sync together via iCloud. Today I am syncing activities by using a Google Calendar and subscribing to it from each device. This is a one-to-many sync. Not a "all-to-all sync". Mail is OK thanks to imap. But Apple's vision promised more. Since my post I called Apple Support. They told it is not yet known how iCloud sync will work. So my worries cannot be resolved until this is published.

  • Magic Mouse with FCPx or Magic Trackpad or both?

    I've been using the trackpad with FCPx for sometime, it works well but sometimes it's nice to use the mouse. Was wondring if the Magic Mouse would be better, anyone using the Magic Mouse with FCPx and prefer it as apposed to the Matic Trackpad

    I'm a fan of the MTP!
    e.g. scrolling thru the timeline by just 'wiping' on the pad is great.
    plus, the OS-gestures to switch windows/screens is very helpful, e.g. I'm using QuicktimePro to select only short parts of longer files, import those to FCPX - so screen#1 is FCPX, screen#2 is QTpro, screen#3 Pixelmator (to create 'live' graphics for my project) ...... very ... handy < pun intended > 
    have you seen this method?

  • Apple Magic Mouse from iMac to PC

    Hi there! I'm going to purchase new iMac 2011, but for the first week or two I can't use it for some reason (it's a present and I don't wanna show it). But I got my PC mouse broken so can I use iMac's magic mouse with my PC somehow?

    I don't think it will work, here is what Apple says it's requirements are:
    System Requirements
    Mac computer with Bluetooth wireless technology
    OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0* or OS X v10.6.1 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0
    Existing keyboard and mouse for setup
    Two AA batteries (included)

    Is it possible to use as a monitor for a macbook pro an IMAC (early 2006)?

    There's no direct input, but ScreenRecycler and Air Display both allow you to use any networked computer as additional display. I haven't tried either but perhaps one of them would work for you.

    Looks like you'll need a couple of things if it's going to work at all...

    In the case of using Target Disk mode between computers, a similar restriction is also present. The adapter will work in Target Disk Mode; however, it will only do so if first plugged into the system before invoking target disk mode so it can be initialized by the firmware.

    I suggest that you request this feature, as I have, at Apple's feature request site. Maybe if enough of us request this it will come in a future iOS release.

    If your Windows computer has Bluetooth built in, then you cause your Magic Mouse with the computer, but you won't be able to use any of the multitouch gestures.
