Left mouse button does not act as an enter action

In some applications, I have noticed that clicking the left mouse button of the wireless mighty mouse (or the USB version) does not result in ENTER and I have to press the enter button on the keyboard. eg in ITunes, to cause a song to play, I have to hit the enter button. Is this the way it should work, or do I have a problem? Phil

Hi Phil;
I just tested iTunes on my Mac. I was able to get a song to play by depressing the left mouse button twice.

  • Left mouse button does not work after last upgrade on one computer.

    Second request -- left mouse button no longer works after latest upgrade. Uninstalled and reinstalled - did not help. Only affected my office computer. Left button works on other three search engines and other programs -- need suggestions...

  • My mouse can not click to anything left, right or the middle mouse button does not work

    I am using a 24 inch imac and the problem is suddenly my mouse can not click to anything left, right or the middle mouse button does not work i can see cursor moving and i can use the features of the keyboard but my mouse dies. I tried to plug in another mouse magic trackpad and my tablet but each has the same problem. I can not click to anything but cursor is moving and computer is not frozen. I have to shut it off from the power button when this happens. Do you have any idea what can cause this and how can i fix this?

    Reset the SMC 2-3 times. Click Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets for instructions.

  • Portal Content Studio - mouse button does not work anymore

    if you use the portal content studio
    content-administration > portal-content
    you can configure the portal objects by browsing them and clicking the right mouse button.
    That worked but now the mouse button doesn't work - left mouse button works as expected (with left mouse button one can navigate through the objects, iViews, working sets, etc...).
    Right mouse button does nothing, portal objects could not be edited. Of course, the mouse is Ok.
    Is this strange error known?
    How to avoid it?
    Is there a possibility to reset this application, so it restarts/re-initializes correctly?
    Even a restart of SAP NetWeaver didn't help.
    Or can one use another method to perform an action instead of the right mouse button?

  • Left mouse click does not work

    I have a mid-2010 Mac Book Pro 15", 8GB, Samsung 840 500GB SSD, w/ Mountain Lion.
    About four to six months ago I started having issues where the left mouse button would stop working when I left the computer on unattended (but not asleep) for extended periods of time.
    I have both a bluetooth keyboard and magic mouse connected most of the time, but when the issue occurs the button issue extends to both the external mouse and the on-system touch pad.
    The issue started at about the same time that I took my system in to be repaired after the harddisk started failing. The system has since had the OS reloaded (twice) and the replacement harddisk has since been replaced with and SSD, so I if the original service is to blame, it is a peripheral issue (damage, firmware update, etc).
    Here is where it gets really crazy... rebooting does NOT fix the issue. Shutting down and restarting does NOT fix the issue. Hard power off (holding the power until it hard-off's the system) then restarting DOES fix the issue.
    The problem is reproducible, and since I've now demoted this laptop to being my television PC, it gets left on idle all the time (and hense the problem occurs all the time).
    To the best of my knowledge I have all the latest patches and firmware loaded.
    I suspect this is a low level firmware/hardware bug, but have no way to confirm and have had no luck with finding answers here or via the store.
    Any assistance is appreciated!!

    I can left mouse click any other program successfully. I can only left mouse click Firefox one time and then it refuses to work. I set the default mouse structure and pressed apply. It does me no good. There must be another cause for no other program has problems except for Firefox.

  • NB250-10G - left touchpad button does not work

    I have a NB250 10G that until a couple of days ago had worked perfectly.
    However, I then found that I could not operate the netbook with the touchpad.
    However, all works fine with my USB plug-in mouse.
    Everything seemed to be going haywire with the touch pad, but I now know what is wrong.
    The right-hand touch-pad button works fine, but the left-hand button is producing the same result as the right-hand one. In other words, I have no working left-hand button - I can't click to open any icons, I can't close down - all that happens is that I get a mini-menu appearing just as with the right-hand button.
    An online note to Toshiba has so far not been answered.
    Can anyone help please? John

    Thanks for your suggestion. Have been into the control panel and changed the touchpad keys from right-hander use to left-hander, applied change - No result. Then back to right-hander set up again - still both keys give the same results, ie a normal right-hand key result. But thanks for the help. You also suggest re-installing the mouse driver. I have no idea how to go about this - are you able to advise? Many thanks. John

  • Middle mouse button does not open links in a new tab.

    If your only solution is to tell me to:
    1.Restart my computer
    2.Start Firefox in safemode
    3.Use another hotkey to open a new tab that's not middle mouse button.
    Then don't even bother replying. As I've done the first two and it made no difference and 3rd option is a solution at all.
    This is frustrating and I'm slightly upset that after reading 20+ Pages of the same problem dating back from 2011 that there are no answers.
    I am on a fresh install Windows XP (Yes I know old school) with firefox version 27.0.1.

    Cor-El I have done all of those as everyone else suggested on all of the other forums.
    I plugged my mouse into another computer and it worked fine. So that lets me know its either something fishy with firefox or my computer.
    As I was writing this I found out what my problem was. However I'm unsure of why. I'll explain here in case anyone else has a similar problem.
    If I Middle click + Hold click for a solid second on the link it will open a new tab.
    It just seems like there is a massive delay in my middle mouse click speed on this system.
    Either way I'll investigate this further on my own. I appreciate all of your time.

  • Middle mouse button does not function for Firefox Tab browsing when cetain programs are running.

    My Microsoft Comfort Mouse 3000 middle button is set in Firefox to open and close tabs. (In Control Panel, Mouse, Firefox is the only program exception and the Wheel button is set to middle-click instead of the default Instant Viewer).
    When vlc media player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) is running and at some point viewed in full screen, the middle mouse button reverts in Firefox to the default Instant Viewer. When vlc is closed, tab operation once again works.
    The same thing happens if MWSnap screen capture (http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html) is running.

    Very glad to see I am not alone. Alas....that answer did nothing on my system. I also am very very frustrated that, all of a sudden, my middle mouse button brings up a weird four pointed arrow! (see pic) I NEED it to open links in tabs for researching!!
    I turned off auto scrolling in the advanced settings. Restarted FF even...and nada.
    I have disabled every single add on I had (only like 6 of them)...and nothing.
    This happened all the sudden...I dont even know of an update. FF v3.6.10

  • Middle mouse button does not open tab with new url

    Suddenly, Firefox (3.6.10 on Kubuntu) changed the behavior of the middle mouse button.
    Before, pressing the middle mouse button on the regular window (not tab bar or tool bar or such) and not on a link caused Firefox to open a new tab and to attempt to load the content of the buffer as URL.
    Now, Firefox shows a weird circle with arrows and my page scrolls vertically in a weird way.
    How to get back the original behavior?
    I tried to find a solution on the web. Despite the many suggestions, the problem prevailed. For example, browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick and middlemouse.contentLoadURL are both true

  • Why my left shift button does not work??? It works under windows!!

    I once restoreed the computer with Lion, and the left shift worked well at first
    But after while, I started to install some software. Suddenly at some unknown time, it stoped working again!!!
    I suppose it would be the software conflict
    The point is that I don't know which software it is!!

  • Left mouse button not working and can't access hidden dock

    This is really weird and just started happening in the past few week or so. My mouse pointer moves and I'm able to select menus and pull down menus with the right button but the left button does not do anything. Also, I have my dock hidden. When I move the mouse pointer towards the bottom of the screen the dock does not appear.
    If I reset the Mac Mini everything goes back to normal again until the next time it happens. I have tried swapping to different mouse and the same thing happens. The weird thing is that if I connect to my MacMini from another computer using Remote Desktop (Screen Sharing) the right mouse buttons function properly from the remote Mac. This allows me to properly restart the MacMini. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi Aleric,
    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, Reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    At least if it doesn't fix it, it'll eliminate a few questions.

    To make sure that all required media is in the library contain the project you need to "Consolidate media"  see:  http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov882dee351
    You can then copy the library to your laptop with the Finder and open it with the same version of iMovie.  The last phrase is important since Apple has made changes in the project format several times even between minor updates of iMovie 10.  Earlier versions may not be able to read the library and later versions (not possible in this case) may cause the project to be updated so that it is no longer readable by the desktop version.   iMovie on the laptop will not at first find the copied library - you will have either to double click on it or File - Open library - Other and navigate to its location.

  • When I enter time machine (on Time Capsule) i see the stack of screen shots and the time line. However, when I roll over the mouse pointer, the time line does not activate. The cancel button does not get me out of the app: have to alt cmd esc. Ideas?

  • Upper left button does not work (Nokia E51)

    Hi,
    I have Nokia E51 and only the upper left button of it has not been working since this afternoon, which unlocks the keys (other keys give response.) The phone has not prone to any physical damage or excessive heat so far and I have not made connection with either any computer or another phone. In addition, my father has same phone and he has been experiencing the same problem for a few hours too. 
    However, the lights on the left side buttons is not working for a long time but I don't know the reason of that also.
    I cannot unlock the keys by plugging off the battery. Have you ever experienced same kind of problem and is there anyone who knows the reason or could offer some temporary or permanent solution?
    Thanks,

    try removing the battery for ten mins then try updating the firmware
    try these steps 1st and we take it from there
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
