Magic Mouse - browser navigation backswipe not working.

Hey, is anyone else having a failing experience using the back nagivagation swipe function of the magic mouse?
As of OSX Mavericks install, the single swipe does not swipe back to previous pages visited.
I am sure this is a bug, and kind of surprised it wasn't caught during beta?
I am however, running dual screens (15" retina monitor, and 27" thunderbolt) but can't imagine that would make any difference.

Nadnerb, you are using the "magic" mouse correct?
I might suggest switching the power off the magic mouse, then under your bluetooth devices, remove the magic mouse. Then turn on the mouse, and reconnect it bluetooth again.
Then test the functionality of the mouse. If it still does not scroll, go into the system:mouse settings and check that those functions are enabled.
If they are, and it's still unable to scroll, is it 100% not working under Safari - or are all applications not working with the scroll? If no applications aren't working, there may be a chance that the sensor in the magic mouse failed.
Would be surprised if that was the case.

    I had this happen to me as well. just last week (july 28, 2014) I brought my magic mouse from home to work since my work mouse was going south. paired it with bluetooth, it moved and clicked but no scroll or gestures. searched till I nearly ready to give up. then I installed USB overdrive. many forum posts said too remove that. I didn't have it, so I installed it. and then un-installed it.  everything works great now.
    hope this helps someone.

  • Magic Mouse - Two Finger Swipe not working in Finder + iTunes

    Hello,
    since OSX 10.8 I realized that in Finder & iTunes the backward/forward navigation has stopped working with Magic Mouse (two-finger-swipe gesture).
    I have already read a lot of forums as well as apple-discussions and didn't find a solution apart from MagicPrefs or any other 3rd-party-app.
    Is that a bug or just not meant to work? Does anybody know why Apple stopped providing this - very useful - gesture?
    Thank you for your time and have a perfect day
    Sascha

    Pual_31 suggested good advise...
    I would also recommend if that does not work, to reboot and run "repair permissions" from Disk Utilities.
    Also might suggest downloading and trying MagicPrefs, it's a free program for the Magic Mouse and it really works great. May help with your problem, may not but I'd give it a try.

  • Magic mouse swipe between pages not working "only" in finders and preferences

    Hi community,
    I'm a new comer in this mac world like I just bought it less than a month ago and I'm already having trouble with it.
    My apple magic mouse cannot swipe between pages "only" in finder and preferences. I mean it works perfectly fine with Safari and stuff but when it comes to finder, I cannot move between folders by swiping with one finger. Ironically, it works fine if I change it to two finger swipe option by sacrificing 'Swipe between full-screen app' feature as it uses two fingers. Apple customer support that I talked to could not figure it out and I'm hoping to find answers here. I mean it's really awkward as it works with two fingers but not with one finger. Plus, one finger swipe works fine in Safari and other apps.
    I did what I can - restarting, -switch on and off the mouse, - PRAM reset, - trying in serfdom, -remove and pair up again the mouse, -run repair permission in disk utility.
    I use Mac Mini late 2014 with Yosemite 10.10.1 and this just happened all of sudden.
    Please help!!

    Just figured out it also does not work with the Mail app.

  • Magic mouse and number keys not working

    Last year, Wet Baloney had a problem:
    I have a first generation iMac with the wireless keyboard of that vintage and a new Magic Mouse.
    All of a sudden the keys on the numeric keypad part of the keyboard do not work. The number
    keys at the top do work.
    Also (all of a sudden) this computer is not detecting my wireless Magic Mouse. There is no battery
    problem. The mouse works fine with my MacBook Pro.
    Does anyone have any troubleshooting ideas ??
    While this question was not answered, Apple decided to archive it anyway so I'm reposting. I had this problem and my sysadmin wizard figured out what is happening. The solution is to open "System Preferences" --> "Universal Access" and select Mouse. Turn off "Mouse Keys". What I don't know is how that got turned on but it happened when I did a Mac OS update that came out around March 28, 2011. Anyway, that fixed both the mouse and the keypad problems. I'm posting so that someone doing the same search I did can find this answer.

    Thank You for this!! I was having problems using my Numeric keypad on a wired keyboard - when I used the number keys, the wireless magic mouse would lock up - the only way out was to Force Close the Application . . . Turning off "Mouse Keys" and hitting Shift > Clear turned everything back to normal.

  • After reinstall my magic mouse and keyboard are not working properly

    i have a 2008 24' imac

    Hi
    It is not easy to say much about this issue.
    Do you use wireless devices? Are batteries OK?
    Have you noticed the same problem using other USB devices?
    I presume both devices uses USB port on your notebook.

  • Magic Mouse Right click menus not working

    Just got a magic mouse (using 10.5.8) and when I right click on a dock icon, the menu comes up (ie empty trash) however I cannot (left) click any of the choices and the menu freezes. I have to right click the desktop to snap out of it. This is happening for all icons/menus. Anyone know of this issue? All other mouse functions (swiping, scrolling etc...) seem to be working. Regular right click functions work, it's just this menu issue.
    thanks

    First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    If not then move these files to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

  • Trackpad browser navigation does not work anymore.

    Hi,
    I've just noticed that I cannot navigate in the browser anymore with the trackpad... forward and backwards does not work anymore...
    I've attached the new Mighty Mouse yesterday and installed the 10.6.2 update today.
    Was sitting on the couch and noticed that it does not work anymore. Checked the
    prefs of the Trackpad and ticked/unticked the box, however to no avail.
    Anybody else noticed this problem or does anybody knows how to fix it???
    Cheers, Marcel.

    Hello, I am not sure why it would not be working with you, but just like you I installed 10.6.2 today and it seems to be working with Firefox.

  • Magic Mouse left right swipe not working

    I got the mouse with my computer about a month ago. And suddenly, the left/right swipe has stopped working. I've wiped down the top and changed the batteries. I restarted. It doesn't seem to be working.
    Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?

    Take it back to Apple and get a new one, yours is still under warranty.

  • Can not install windows 7 pro using boot camp as mouse and keyboard will not work Help please

    I have a new iMac and trying to install Windows 7 Pro using boot camp. I have reached the stage of starting to load windows from the DVD then discovered the mouse and the keyboards not working so I could not interact with windows installation.

    Open, if not so already, the Windows formatter. Identify the BC Windows partition. It will be the one listed with the proper size you created and/or will be labeled as a C: drive. Be careful you select the right one or you may be corrupting the entire drive.
    Format the partition as NTFS.

  • Mouse pad virtual wheel not working in bookmarks menu

    Hi,
    My laptops mouse pad wheel does not work in the bookmarks menu. It works fine in any other application or on the main view in firefox. I'm not very organized and have hundreds of bookmarks, it's frustrating to have to wait for the up/down buttons in the bookmarks menu to scroll.

    Maybe FCP 3 doesn't provide support for mouse wheel scrolling? I can't remember and I'm not going to install FCP 3 to test that theory.
    You should be able to at least set the MS mouse driver to perform scroll wheel functions in FCP through the MS mouse preference pane (zoom in/out for example) but I don't know if that includes scrolling.

  • My iMac mouse right click does not work now

    Hi all,
    My iMac mouse right click does not work now.  It was fine a couple of days ago. 
    Right click is definitely enabled, I have checked it several times.
    A Google search revealed that in Firefox it could be that I'm not using the latest version of Firebug.  I have auto updates on and Firebug is the latest version 1.11.3
    I use right click for correcting spell checked words, instead of a suggested correct spelling I get the 'open in a new tab' menu.
    In Firefox when I right click to open in a new tab I get the menu but it does nothing.
    It is driving me mad
    Any help will be greatly appreciated,
    Thank you
    P.S. thought it was suddenly working when I did the spell check in this post but it was the left click doign it....

    I don't use Firefox so I can't test it, but it might be something to do with a preference setting. Have a look at this link (ignore all the instructions), just look at the image of the preferences, there appears to be a setting in Javascript preferences relating to contextual menus. Check to see what your settings are:
