How to restore scrolling and preference options for magic mouse?

My Apple Magic Mouse has lost the ability to scroll the way it used to. When I open the mouse pane in System Preferences, the magic mouse options and video examples no longer display; just scrolling and tracking speed. I changed batteries, then also switched mice with a colleague, but still no horizontal or inertia scrolling, etc. I have tried restoring the PRAM several times, trashed the preference logs, etc, even reinstalled the system software.
I'm using a MacBook Pro withSnow Leopard. I had previously downloaded USB Overdrive, and read somewhere that it could be the cause. I got rid of USB Overdrive, but my mouse still doesn't behave the way it used to. Any suggestions?

I got rid of USB Overdrive
And all its preference files?  Repaired permissions?
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.

  • Preference panes for Magic mouse and Trackpad not upgraded

    Hi I upgraded my i5 iMAC27'' to Lion and the bluetooth track pad and magic mouse do not support any gestures.  I have looked at all the similar threads but none seem similar to mine as I do seem to have the correct preference panes for these devices.  It seems to just have really old panes from snow leopard.
    Anybody know how I can fix this ?

    Just tried a copy of a working reference pane from macbook air (2011) and it looks juts the same.  The problem is deeper than the pane file itself.

    That's a hardware question what would be best answered in the forum for the system version you're using, either Mac OS X v10.7 Lion, Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard.

    Hello jacquemac,
    Your first question:
    There might be a better way of achieving what you wish to do, but following these steps could help you out.
    You might want to blend in Thumbnails and Invisibles either with (cmd+shift+i and cmd+alt+p) or over the View section in the Menubar.
    1. go for Documents (right end of the Toolbar) -> Section
    2. place your cursor at the very top of your second page and click "Create new Section->Starting with this page" in the side bar on your right.
    (what you are actually doing next is setting the pagenumbers for each section you created. You can see your sections in the Thumbnail view.)
    3. click on your first page (the first and only page of your first section) and mark the checkbox "Hide on first page of section"
    4. click on your second page (the first page of your second section) and  "Insert page number" -> start at 1
    Your second question:
    Im not quite sure i understand what exactly you want to do here. One page, two columns, each column with another page number? As far as i know this is not possible.
    greetings jl

  • How to restore views and procedures after drop user command?

    How to restore views and procedures after drop user command?
    We have 817 EE on NT and one developer created a lot of procedures, functions and vews. DB was not backuped and archived and export has not been done - our fault and we understand it. Sorry for this.
    Ok, now the story: another developer dropped this db user and we lost everything: procedures, functions and vews. The new user with trhe same name was created and new schema was imported in this user, but all old objects are lost. We don't have export and backup and archive log files.
    Question: may we can restore this lost stuff from some other sources. We are looking for lost codes, not data. May be we can use redo logs or shared pool or any other things. Any idea will be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Victor
    [email protected]

    The switch has occurred after user was dropped, the data has been overwritten and there is be no way to use redo log files.
    I would like to explore another opportunity. Is possible to use Shared Pool or any Data Dictionary internal information to restore texts of the lost SQL and PL/SQL scripts executed in this DB before user was dropped? Not too many scripts are executed in this DB and the lost ones may still be in stack. I remember that Shared Pool (cash) should keep last executed scripts in order to improve performance. They probably are kept in some special format. Can we restore these scripts? Of course they also might be pushed out by Import that had been done after user was dropped.
    Thanks for your help,
    Victor

  • Need to add print and download options for report in new window

    Hi,
    On one of the columns empid of the report1 (which is on the dashboard) , I am using navigation and pointing it to report2.
    Report1 has all the links, print, download and refresh (I enabled them using the section properties) but when I click on empid and it takes me to report2, then I don't see any links under that report. I want to include print and download links for report2 when it opens in the new window.
    I know, one way is to embedd that report in the dashboard page and hide it, but is there any other way of doing it?
    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ronny

    Just to clarify again, I am using a navigation from report1 (which is on the dashboard) to report2 (which is not on the dashboard).
    As per the requirements, I can't put my report2 on any dashboard page and hide it and then use navigation. Also, I can't enable the print and download options for report1 which is already on the dashboard. Doing this gives me print and download options for report2 but that is not the requirement.
    Is there any way to have print and download options for report2 when I am directly navigating to the report2 from report1 and not the report2 on any dashboard page which is hidden.
    I will really appreciate any help on this.
