Magic Mouse causes WiFi disconnect

I'm using a Macbook Pro 2009, running OSX Lion 10.7.4. The use of a Magic Mouse causes my Macbook to disconnect from my WiFi. When using a Magic Mouse, I am frequently disconnected from my wireless network — once every few minutes.
Upon switching to a conventional, corded mouse, I don't experience any problem.
I also use a bloothtooth Apple wireless keyboard, without any problems.

Sometimes bluetooth interfers with wifi because they operate on the same 2.4Ghz band.  Try a lower channel number (1-3) on your wifi router.

  • Magic Mouse causes noise in MacBook Pro while scrolling

    Hi everyone,
    I just discovered a kind noise which I'm not sure is a problem or not. I'm sitting in an extreme quite room and my windows are almost completely closed, so I can hear the sounds my MacBook Pro (Mid-2010) is making very well. I can hear the fans spin and the hard disk's reading noise. Just now when I'm scrolling up and down with my Magic Mouse, I realized that every scroll I make causes my MacBook to emit a kind of noise that sounds like the noise the hard disk would make when it is reading/writing. That sound appears to be emitted from the part where the logic board is housed, i.e. the left side (the side with the ports). I note that this noise can only be heard in an extremely quiet environment. I wonder if anyone else also has this little noise issue? Thanks.
    Regards,
    James

    I have the same problem on my iMac.
    In some applications, especially the apple ones, i can hear a odd noise while i use the vertical scroll.
    I dont no have idea what is causing that thing.
    It seems that only you and me can hear that sound. Maybe we have some kind of special hearing.

  • Magic mouse continues to disconnect

    This hasn't happened to me until now. The mouse gets disconnected every few hours, and the batteries and power are fine. I have to put my computer to sleep mode and restart it to regain the connection. It also happens when I gently hit the magic mouse on the mouse pad.

    Have you tried making it a favorite?
    System Preferences>Bluetooth - highlight the mouse and then click on the 'cog' at the bottom left side of the window and select 'add to favorites' (you may need to select 'Show more info' first in order to be able to choose Add to favorites).
    This fixed it for me when I was experiencing the same problem - added the keyboard as a favorite as well, even though that wasn't playing up.

  • Magic mouse causes jumping pages in browser?

    Whilst I am browsing, from time to time, the page jumps either backward or forward wile I am holding the magic mouse. It seems to be when I have a thumb and finger on the outside metal edges of the mouse. It really is frustrating when I am trying to read something and my concentration gets broken by this action.
    Is anyone having a similar occurrence or does someone know how to do a fix for this?

    Uncheck The option in System Preferences > Mouse > More Gestures tab > Swipe between pages with one finger.
    This will prevent the back or forward actions.

  • Bluetooth Magic Mouse = Slow Wifi

    Has anyone else found this? I'm running a new Macbook Pro with latest Yosemite and every time i turn the magic mouse on, boom, internet drops to 3kb/s on avg..every now and again it will kick back up but pretty much consistent hangs! I love the mouse but literally turn it off when i switch to the browser otherwise i can't get anything done. -_-
    Cheers

    Hi!,
    I have this problem as well. It's very annoying!
    Hope there is a fix for this problem, but i think it's a problem in the hardware.
    It's a well known problem, Apple fix it please!
    Thanks

  • Yosemite causing WiFi disconnections

    Apple should be embarrassed by the problems with WiFi connectivity being caused by Yosemite.   I should not be spending valuable minutes of my day investigating causes and fixes of this matter.

  • The bluetooth connection to my wireless keyoard, magic mouse, AND wifi connection all cut out intermittently

    I bought my imac in late november, and for the last two months I've been plagued by connection problems to everything, any help/solutions please? I've looked around and a lot of people have complained about software problems with Lion, could it be anything to do with that?

    Hello:
    I suggest you reset the SMC and see if that helps.
    Also, I would make the mouse a favorite.

  • Is my Magic Mouse dead?

    I noticed my Magic Mouse has been disconnecting, then reconnecting a lot lately. I thought it was loose batteries or dirty connectors, so I remedied that with some cleaning alcohol on the contacts. Everything seems OK, but now I noticed the green light on the bottom doesn't turn on when I slide the green switch on. I even tried other batteries. Same problem. I never dropped the mouse and took very good care of it over the last two years. It sounds like a power connection issue. Anyone have a solution?

    I have had the same issue but with my Magic Trackpad today. I changed the batteries in a working trackpad and then nothing. No green light.
    Batteries are fine. I'm certain the connections are OK to as I was using Duracell's before and I am now too. I even put in the old batteries as they were not completely dead and nothing
    Will be booking a Genius Bar to get a replacement as it's still within warranty.

  • Yosemite killed Magic Mouse

    Yosemite killed my Magic Mouse. It disconnects all of the time. Sometimes never reconnecting. Sometimes taking 15-20. Its so frustrating. Switching the mouse on/off from the mouse itself or via toggling Bluetooth on/off my MBP doesn't do anything. Manually trying to connect does nothing either. I participating in the Yosemite beta program from start to finish and submitted feedback on the issue numerous times.
    Anyone else experiencing this or have a fix?
    Thanks

    You've probably fixed this by now, but I encountered it on a Macbook Pro after upgrading to Yosemite 10.10.1 from Mavericks, where the Magic Mouse worked fine. After booting into Yosemite after the upgrade, the Magic Mouse wouldn't resync and the Bluetooth preferences didn't show the mouse. I changed the mouse batteries, turned it off and on several times, turned the Macbook Pro's Bluetooth off and on, and removed the unconnected Magic Mouse listing from the Macbook Pro's Bluetooth Preferences.
    I'm not positive what fixed it, but while struggling with this issue it occurred to me an iPad with a Bluetooth keyboard and an iPhone with Bluetooth enabled were just a foot or two away from the MBP. I moved the iPad with its Bluetooth keyboard and iPhone w/Btooth enabled to the next room and suddenly the Magic Mouse connected to the MBP. I then noticed the iPad or iPad Btooth keyboard showed up as available in the MBP's Bluetooth preferences, so I removed that, too.
    I'm not sure if this was a coincidence, but the idea it might help struck me based on the following reasoning, which might be faulty:
    - maybe Bluetooth in the Macbook Pro, the iPad and the iPhone were all detecting the Magic Mouse and the iPad and/or iPhone were "winning" or hogging, perhaps because they were on next to the Magic Mouse during the Macbook Pro's long hiatus during the Yosemite installation.
    - maybe by the time the Macbook Pro finally booted to Yosemite, the iPhone and/or iPad had hogged the Magic Mouse Bluetooth identity so the MBP saw the Magic Mouse as unavailable even though the MM and iPad/iPhone were just friends, not a pair.
    I had another iPhone next to the MBP but its Bluetooth was off.
    I didn't have time to verify this after the Magic Mouse started working because I was charging a client an hourly rate, otherwise, I would have nailed it down. Still, the agony in the forums over this issue lead me to post this possibility in case it turns out to be true.

  • Magic mouse sluggish after rebooting mac

    Hi,
    I have a strange problem with my magic mouse.
    I have an early 2013 Macbook pro retina. After I upgraded to Yosemite, for a while I had a lot of problems with the magic mouse, sluggish response, disconnecting all the time and so on.
    I reset the SMC and that solved the problem, occasionally it would come back but resetting the SMC always solved it.
    But a few times, I have problems after rebooting the mac. The mouse is working perfectly but when the computer reboots starts behaving badly.
    Yesterday I had that problem, I rebooted my mac and after all the mouse was terrible. I tried resetting the SMC but it didn't work. I remove the device and it had problems finding it, it eventually did but still it wasn't working well.
    After a while, I shut down the system, reset the SMC once again, waited for about a minute, turned it back on and as the mouse was still a bit erratic, then I rebooted, and from then on it worked well.
    I read an Apple support article that recommends doing that, shutting down, wait, power on and restart.
    What puzzles me is why would this happen when I reboot the mac. It's like bluetooth needs sometime to start working properly again.
    does anybody know anything about this?

    HI,
    Try Resetting the PRAM
    Also, install the v10.6.2 Combo Update
    Repair disk permissions.
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac.*

  • Will the magic mouse work well with my iMac G5?

    I was wondering before i buy the Magic mouse cause my mighty mouse is getting old, if it will work with my iMac?
    i did upgrade to leopard so i was wondering if it will work?
    thanks!

    Based on the system requirements, on the product listing page at the Apple Store
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB829LL/A
    it will work. Scrolling works with Leopard. +Momentum Scrolling+ makes the scroll continue a bit after you stop the motion with your finger, like the action has "momentum." Snow Leopard is required for that feature to work.

  • Magic Mouse Bluetooth Connection - WiFi Interference

    I have a macbook and recently purchased a magic mouse.  It constantly connects and disconnects.  I replaced the batteries, re-paired th BT connection, no luck.  I spent an hour on the phone with apple support and we tried everything they had in their database, no success.  I then took it to the genius bar at the local store with the same result.  Apple replaced the mouse with a new one, having the same problem.  The mouse only has issues in my apartment.  When I go to the conference room on the 1st floor, the mouse works fine.  I suspect my time capsule wifi 2.4ghz is causing interference with the bluetooth.  I tried to disable the 2.4ghz wifi and only use 5ghz, but I can't find a way to do it.
    If anyone has any ideas, I would be grateful.

    I'm starting to have problems with the Bluetooth not recognizing the Magic Mouse even though 1) it's discoverable and 2) I favorited it. Does this have anything to do with the new Magic Prefs app?
    One other thing that could make a major difference is that I downloaded USB Overdrive in order to use a Logitech joystick. It really should have no bearing on something that is not a USB device, though that preference panel does recognize the Magic Mouse...in spirit if not in function. I cannot scroll with it or use the touch-specific functions of that device. If Bluetooth cannot read it, what good is it anyway?
