Hi!  My magic mouse won't scroll in word for mac - but it scrolls in safari and outlook.  So frustrating!

I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and am using Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 version 14.4.5.  My magic mouse no longer scrolls in word - though I can click on things with the magic mouse.  And the magic mouse scrolls in safari and outlook.  Any thoughts?

I had the same problem. I just quit Word and restarted and it worked. I tried with a new document just to try it at first and when that worked, I tried it on the document I was working on and it was fixed!

  • HT204655 My photos won't import into Word for Mac after OS X upgrade

    After upgrading to the new OS X Yosemite does anyone know how to import photos into Word or Excel for Mac? That library is now grayed out for me and I am in mid-project on Word. I used to be able to copy and paste right into my document, now it seems I must exclusively work within the Photos program.

    I actually found that the issue started for me after the MS Office update last week. It was originally working fine with the new Photos for Mac App until the MS Office update. Now Word can't find the photo browser, it only shows Photo Booth. I also can't drag drop photos from the Mac App into Word, like I used to be able to. At the moment I export the photos to a directory then I can input from file in Word. That works, but it's a bit untidy.
    I'm thinking off trying the Office 2016 for Mac, which are available now as demos. Unfortunately Microsoft don't reply to questions that are raised, so I'm not sure what the underlying issue is with photo's not working.

    Exactly what "app" did your teacher give you?

  • Magic mouse won't scroll on snow leopard

    I bought an imac two weeks ago (snow leopard)- and my magic mouse won't scroll! I do not seem to have the USB overdrive installed, I have all the latest software! Help!

    The ball is dirty, they have a history of accumulating dirt and grime on them so that's my best guess. When I used one what worked well was rolling the ball very very vigorously on a white sheet of paper on a hard flat surface. Do this for about 60 seconds then see if that took care of it.
    NOTE: My error I misread and thought you wrote Mighty Mouse. Please disregard.

  • Does anyone know why a magic mouse won't scroll in calendar in mavericks?

    does anyone know why a magic mouse won't scroll in calendar in mavericks?
    It will scroll in a window that has an indicator scroll bar on the right side but not in the new seamless calendar view. The built in trackpad on my mid 2012 macbook pro will scroll.

    or uninstall those mpkgs
    Yes.

  • Suddenly my magic mouse won't track properly, can anyone help?

    Suddenly my magic mouse won't track around the screen properly, can anyone help? It was working fine then it started sticking. It scrolls from top to bottom fine just the on screen movement is effected. The battery is showing 100%, I've changed the fast/slow slider all the way to the right which has helped a little and unpaired it from bluetooth then re-paired it, did an SMC shut-down, cleaned ball, battery points but it still does not feel totally right? Am I missing something?

    hi, i had the same problem.
    i just put my mac into sleepmode
    apple logo left corner --> first option above restart
    then i connected my magic mouse ( holding the button)
    and then it worked
    i hope it is working for you too

  • Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7 anymore

    Hey there,
    I've got an iMac running OS X 10.6.8 and Windows 7 via Boot Camp. I just updated a bunch of the Apple stuff on Windows -- iTunes, Quicktime, "boot camp" (I assume that meant drivers and such), and whatnot. Now my Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7. It was fine before, so I assume the update screwed something up. Help? I know nothing of retrieving old drivers and stuff like that.
    Note: I am running Snow Leopard, NOT Lion.

    Hi bsruff,

  • Magic Mouse won't work on mac pro with d-link dongle

    For the first time I am very unhappy with a purchase of an apple product. I today have finally gotten 2 of those magic mice; one is a present for my best friend (who is also excited) and the other one I wanted to keep for myself. Not more to say as an introduction.
    Before I went back home I tried my mouse on one of my late 2007 macbooks, and after the mm update everything was great. I loved the handling, the style, simply everything about that kewl new gadget. I couldn't wait to get home to connect it to my "big boy", my mac pro, where I usually work on all my tasks in my office.
    Since my "bb" is already a bit older (one of the first intel xeons -- 2x2 dual core engines, already upgraded for several times with drives and RAM) and didn't come yet with the internal bluetooth module I have a D-Link DWB-120M USB dongle in use which always has been reliable and so far has connected anything that cried for a bluetooth connection. Till today...
    I installed the software update 1.0 on my big boy and started the recognition routine. The name of the magic mouse appeared, it tried to connect, but then broke up with something I've never seen before: "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Click "Continue" to try again."
    I clicked "continue" for several times, read all the trouble shootings around the globe, reconnected it to my macbook (where it still worked fine and said, batteries are 100%), and finally must face the fact that maybe the dongle (or the procedure with it) must be the reason for the failure.
    I am not really a dull-one; so I finally understand that the D-Link DWB-120M from 2004 might be inoperable in regard of the magic mouse. My bluetooth logi mouse still works with it, but I cannot make the magic mouse work at all.
    So I want to ask into the big bubble if there are people around who could make the new mouse work on on a xeon mac pro with only a usb dongle, and which dongle it would be.. I already tried the support pages of D-Link, but, hey, ...should I really install IE6 or 7 on my mac to get support there??? I guess not.
    Any hint is appreciated. I gladly will get myself a working usb dongle for my big boy, which would make the magic mouse work on it.
    Thanks for your attention. Please add your experiences to my thread; maybe they're more people who would love to take advantage of your experiences.
    ..Blinky shiny magic mouse awaits its first job on big boy..
    Take care

    PS: I run 10.5.8 on all of my macs. I didn't upgrade to snow leopard yet, which I expect would not change anything until the mouse update has been done on all of my macs.
    Thanks again

  • TS3048 Even after installing new batteries and switching it on my magic mouse does not work. Sometimes it works but switches off (indicator light goes off) on its own after a few minutes.

    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.  Try making the device a favorite .

  • Two finger scroll not working in Microsoft Word for Mac

    Just finished installing Yosemite today and haven't had any real issues...however, I've noticed that two-finger scrolling doesn't work in Microsoft Word for mac. It works fine in many other applications (including other Microsoft apps--Excel & PowerPoint), but not Word.
    I've looked for any scrolling options that may be "unchecked" in the preferences, but haven't found any.

    I'm having the same issue. However, I have restarted and it still won't work. This is extremely frustrating as I have the latest updates and everything but it doesn't work and I keep forgetting every time I try to scroll.
    I'm also having the issue of whenever my Mac goes to sleep or if I turn it off, the log in screen says there are updates necessary. I feel like this is a bug because I've updated my computer like 20 times in the past few days...

  • My friend gave me his old touch, however it won't sync with my new mac but it charges the itouch so i was wondering how i could sync it to my iTunes.

    My friend gave me his old touch, however it won't sync with my new mac but it charges the itouch so i was wondering how i could sync it to my iTunes.

    Does the iPod show up in iTunes on the Mac? If not try:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    also
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    Otherwise what happens when you try to sync? Note that you can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. If that is the problem you should go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase and content and setting and set up the iPod on you computer/iTunes library. One content on the iPod does not belong to you.
