Ideas to make the magic mouse more comfortable and avoid mistaken right clicks...

I love the magic mouse, but it should be curved. the index finger keeps ending up on the right side so i accidently right click ALL THE TIME!!!
Either curve the top half, or narrow the bottom half, so the thumb can sit farther down, allowing the hand to turn a bit on it and keep the index finger on it's on side!!!!
OR raise the center from bottom to top, so you can FEEL when your hand shifts over for comfort and puts the index finger past center.
OR allow us to set the dividing line between right and left shifting over to the side more, depending if we are left or right handed.
have you guys not figured out yet that the thumb sets lower than the other fingers??????

No one here can change the mouse.

Should the magic mouse connect, if already paired, on mouse powerUP?

Seems like it would be most convenient, but mine will not do so.
Using some other pointing device it connects right away when requested from the bluetooth system pref or setup BT mouse, but shouldn't this happen automatically when either of them powers on or wakes up etc once you have them established? The bluetooth pref shows them as paired, just not connected. Making the device a favorite does not change anything. When the MM is powered on t just continues to double blink.
Oh and even if I have to re-pair each time (I hope not) I love this mouse, I just won't turn it off. I don't use the 2 finger gestures so have them turned off, but the momentum scrolling is great, the non-existant track ball will never clog up, I like the feel, I like the click, its great!

Hi John.
I have the same issue: I expected the mouse to connect on power on (as other BT mice/keyboards do on my XP box). I found an old post for the original Apple Bluetooth mouse that talked about clicking the button 4 times. I tried clicking the mouse 4 times after turning it on and that works for me. It is not perfect, but it seems a bit less agricultural than going to "Bluetooth ... Apple Wireless Mouse ... Connect".
Cheers,
Jeff

Why is the Magic Mouse slow and impressive on Mavericks?

After upgrade to Mavericks, the Magic Mouse become slow and Impressive. This doens,t happened on Mountain Lion.
I did a clean installation and the batery of Magic Mouse is full!

Did you post from the system that has the problem? (Your "More System Details" list shows Flash 11.7 instead of 11.8 for some reason.)
This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with Flash in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) Make sure all recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them.
(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash ''(I see from your post that you've done this part)''
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
(3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)
See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]

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.

Woes With the Magic Mouse...

I am a proud new owner of an iMac 27 Inch computer. Everything is working flawlessly, except for one thing. I have had the computer for maybe two days, transferred all the info from my old iMac.
Recently, I was playing World of Warcraft when the game froze on me and forced me to power down the computer. Upon rebooting my computer, I noticed the mouse cursor speed had been set to an ungodly speed, and the cursor was zooming around the screen like crazy. I nearly had to set the tracking speed all the way down for it to be tolerable. Afterwards, I also noticed that my scroll features on the mouse were no longer working. I opened up the preferences to check and see what was wrong, and now my Mouse Preferences window doesn't even recognize it as a Magic Mouse, but a standard wireless one.
I want to get the Magic Mouse back up and working, but I have no idea where to go from here. As far as I know, I have all the drivers installed and working, am up to date with Snow Leopard 10.6.4, but the mouse is not being recognized as anything but a standard wireless.
Please help.

Hi m:
There are several things you can try (more or less one at a time) to try to fix the problem.
1. Run repair disk from your software install DVD.
2. Trash a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.
3. Reset the SMC:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
4. Reset PRAM:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
5. Go to system preferences>bluetooth and delete the mouse. Restart and see if it is discovered as a magic mouse.
6. If everything else fails, reinstall OS X 10.6 from your software install DVD (over your existing system) and then run software update.

My wired Apple Magic Mouse is frozen and I am unable to move around on my Mini Mac. I receive a window saying the computer cannot locate a wireless mouse. How do I get my mouse to work again.

My Magic Mouse is frozen. How do I get it to work again? Also I keep getting a window that says it cannot locate my wireless mouse. I do not have a wireless mouse.

Got confused between your header question about a wired mouse and the main question about a wireless mouse. You said your magic mouse was frozen and added you do not have a wireless mouse. Problem is ... the magic mouse is wireless. The original mighty mouse was the corded version.
The wired mouse is a regular problem. After two to three years it tends to clog up. You can clean it (to a degree) as follows.
Using an alcohol moistened, not wet, cotton bud, scratch at the mouse ball for a minute or so. Then turn it upside down and on a clean piece of thick white paper or card on a firm surface, vigorously rub the mouse ball on the paper in a regular figure of eight. Do this for a minute or so and occasionally tap the mouse on the paper. This will help dislodge bits of fluff etc. Then try again

Can the magic mouse and magic trackpad be used together

Having just purchased a new iMac with a wireless keyboard and magic mouse, I want to add a keypad and I'm looking at purchasing the Magic Trackpad with the Mobee Magic Numpad overlay (and connecting it to the keyboard with the Twelve South Magic Wand).
What I need to know is - if using the Magic Trackpad, can I still use the Magic Mouse at the same or must it be one or the other (would there be any conflicts)?

Yes, they can both be enabled at the same time as can the keyboard.

I use an iMac (27" 3.4) and have problems with the Magic Mouse. It does not use contact, but opens useless and unrelated submenus with every click, even on the empty desktop. I can't shift, open or close pages. Has anyone out there the same problem?

I use an iMac 27" (mid 2011). Until recently I had OSX 10.6.8 installed, but both, the HDD and SSD had to be replaced, and I lost all the memory.
After the repair through Apple Care I had OSX 10.7.5. (Lion) installed, which developed a Magic Mouse problem.
Unlike with most users, I have no problems with connection, but grapple with a different kind of erratic behaviour.
All fancy stuff is turned off in the mouse preferences. When I try to move, open or close pages, unrelated submenus pop up and hinder the
required task. No matter how often I click, these menus stay there, and they even come up when clicking on the bare desktop.
It renders the mouse absolutely useless, as no work can be done with it.
The first 'Magic Mouse' had depleted batteries every few days, despite switching it off after use.
I was supplied a new Mouse, which does better battery-wise, but the problems are the same. I can't get a result by clicking on any link, due to
the pop-up menus, so both 'Magic Mice' are totally useless.
At present I am using the old USB mouse from my Mac Pro, and that works still o.k.
The problem are not the mice, but the software. The first 2 weeks after installation of OSX 10.7.5 the Magic Mouse worked though.
I have no idea as to what the reason may be.
Has anyone in the community ever experienced that particular problem. Any hint would be welcomed.
Thank you!

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
Cheers, Gerd

I have boot camp in my mac to use autocad. Can I use the magic mouse on my windows side and use it to work in autocad?

I have boot camp in my MacBook Pro to use AutoCAD. Can I use the magic mouse on my Windows side and use it to work in AutoCAD?

Yes and no. The gestures wont work so it just becomes a regular scroll-wheel mouse.

It is possible to connect the magic mouse, magic trackpad and the apple wireless keyboard at once on the same Bluetooth network on the new iMac?

I want to buy a new iMac but in my country the iMac just come with the magic mouse and I want the trackpad for the multitouch geastures. Can you help me with this question?

Yes you can have multiple Bluetooth devices connected simultaneously. I believe you have have up to 7 BT devices at one time.

Running Boot Camp in Windows 7 with Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard and Wireless Magic Mouse

NOTE: I was installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 Professional on a 27" iMac mid-2010 with a Processor Speed of 2.93 GHz, a Core i7 Processor Type, a Quad Core Processor Configuration, 8GB RAM, and a ATI Radeon HD 5750 Graphics Card. I run Snow Leopard so it is a 64-bit OS. I have a Wireless Keyboard and Wireless Magic Mouse as well. In order to install Windows 7 you need a Wired Keyboard and Mouse. You will also need a Wired Keyboard and Wired Mouse to update Boot Camp.
Updating Boot Camp Assistant (VERY IMPORTANT)
First, plug in a wired keyboard and wired mouse. The Boot Camp Assistant version that came with my iMac was 3.0 so I upgraded it to 3.1 and then to 3.2. I'm not sure if only the upgrade to 3.1 is necessary, but I took it a step further. I was told by Apple Tech Support that you first needed to upgrade to version 3.1 before being able to upgrade to 3.2 These upgrades will not be found using Software Update on the Mac. However, they can be found at http://support.apple.com/downloads/#macoscomponents
They also have software updates for 32-bit machines as well and MacBook Pro updates.
NOTE: Before updating the version of Boot Camp, but after installing Windows 7 and after putting in the Mac OS X Install DVD to run Setup.exe to download the Mac drivers, run Software Update for the Mac while logged into Windows 7 by clicking on Start - All Programs - Software Update for any additional updates.
Next I installed Boot Camp Software Update 3.1 for Windows 64 bit found at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1336
I then ran Software Update for the Mac while logged into Windows 7 by clicking on Start - All Programs - Software Update
Then I installed Boot Camp Software Update 3.2 for Windows 64 bit found at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL979
I then installed Boot Camp 3.2 Update for iMac (early 2011) found at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL979 but I'm not sure if this was necessary.
Once Boot Camp 3.2 has been installed I ran Software Update for the Mac again while logged into WIndows 7 to make sure I had all the updates.
Configuring a Bluetooth device on a Windows-based computer
(from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952818)
How to make sure that the Bluetooth service is started (MY COMPUTER WAS ALREADY SET UP TO RUN BLUETOOTH, SO THE NEXT 8 STEPS COULD BE OPTIONAL)
Open the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in for Services. To do this, follow these steps.
Windows Vista or Windows 7Windows XP
Click Start, and then click Run.
Copy and then paste (or type) the following command in the Open box, and then press ENTER:services.msc
Click Start , copy and then paste (or type) the following command in the Start Searchbox, and then press ENTER:services.msc
In the Programs list, click Services.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
Double-click the Bluetooth Support service.
If the Bluetooth Support service is stopped, click Start.
On the Startup type list, click Automatic.
Click the Log On tab.
Click Local System account.
Click OK.
If you prompted to restart the computer, click Yes.
How to connect the Bluetooth device to the computer
1. First off, you need to go into Mac OS and remove the keyboard and mouse from your Bluetooth settings entirely. You'll add them back in later (see 9) below).
2. Boot into Windows using a USB connected Mouse and Keyboard.
3. Go to Control Panel – Hardware and Sound – Device and Printers – Add a Device
4. Turn on the Mouse to send out a signal and once it sees it select it to be paired to the computer
5. Run 3.) again except select the keyboard.
6. Turn on the Keyboard to send out a signal and once it sees it select it to be paired to the computer by typing in the 8 digit number into the wireless keyboard and hit ENTER/RETURN.
7. To see if everything was added go to Devices and Printers and see if they were added to the list.
8. Shutdown Windows 7 and Restart using Mac OSX. If you adjusted the Boot Camp settings while in Windows 7 you will see a Boot Camp icon in the system tray located at the bottom right of the screen. From here you can logoff and reboot in Mac OSX. If you don't, do a RESTART and hold the Option key down after hearing the GONG and select the Mac HD option while logging in. Now it's time to add back the wireless mouse and keyboard to be recognized by your Mac.
9. Go to System Preferences – Internet and Wireless – Bluetooth
10. Hit the “+” button to launch the Bluetooth Setup Assistant to find the devices sending out the signal.
11. Highlight the device found and hit “Continue”
12. Do this for both the keyboard and mouse. You will be prompted to type in the 8 digit code into the wireless keyboard in order to pair it with your computer.
13. Click on the pinwheel next to the “-“ sign to rename the wireless devices if you'd like.
I then logged back into Windows 7 to see if the mouse and keyboard were functional and had no problems. For some reason, Windows has problems pairing bluetooth devices that are already paired under a Mac OSX. Many people have updated Boot Camp, yet still were not able to pair their wireless devices because they didn't break the Bluetooth connection on the Mac side first. So both steps are necessary (1) Updating to at least Boot Camp 3.1 if not 3.2 and (2) Deleting the Wireless mouse and keyboard link while running Mac OSX before trying to pair them in a Windows OS.

I found the answers by trial and errors.
@ is obtained by CTRL + OPT + 2
# is obtained by CTRL + OPT + 3
(without shift or caps lock)
These two signs are critical and I fail to understand why this information is not readily available from the help function or from the Apple support.

Magic mouse constantly disconnects and can't get it to connect without rebooting the computer. Anyone else have this issue

How do you solve the problem of the magic mouse constantly disconnecting? I have changed the batteries and turn it on and off, but the only way to get it to reconnect seems to be re-starting the computer. Any thoughts? Thank you.

Greetings Beth,
Wireless devices are susceptible to interference. Review this article for common sources: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3048#5
They are also very sensitive to low power. Make sure you are using VERY fresh batteries. If they have been sitting on a shelf for months they don't count as fresh IMO.
Troubleshooting steps to try after you read that article at the top:
Remove the following to the trash: Macintosh HD > Library > Preferences > com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
Restart the computer and re-pair the mouse and keyboard
If issue persists reset the SMC:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
If the issue persists reset the PRAM:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Hope that helps!
