Magic Mouse does not swipe between full screens.

Even tho prefrences is checked that one finger swipes between pages and two finger swipe between full screen apps, I am unable to do so.  It only goes between say mail, dashboard and one chrome or say I photo.  What could I be doing wrong?

I went to Mission Control and set up more desktops, Thanks Captfred.  I'm getting the hang of it, but occ. it gets stuck, ie:  I-Cal goes from page to page.  Any suggestions?  Thanks again Captfred.

  • Magic mouse does not swipe correctly

    Upgraded to Mavericks.  Magic Mouse only swipes between open screens instead of within pages in a document, returning to previous page on web site, etc.

    Disregard.  I looked a some other forums and checked my system settings.  One finger swiping had been disabled.  All is well.
    For now.

    It's a Magic Mouse question. I have set this up in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers,  however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me from the app that I am on to the dashboard only and not to my other open apps.
    I also find that Smart zoom only works with some apps, for instance not with Word docs or email.
    How can I correct this please?

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

  • TS3048 my magic mouse does not want to right click anymore?

    My magic mouse does not seem to right click anymore, any suggestions?  For example, I used to right click on my icon of my memory card from the camera that I have inserted into the side of the IMac and I could choose "eject" now it doesn't want to right click and open up those options.  Am I doing something wrong?

    Hey.
    This seems to be a common issue.
    I've seen mixed posts on the net about the ES8000 working with the Apple Keyboard but from what I've seen the Apple mouse tends to fail the sync constantly.
    Sad, I just bought a mouse to improve navigasting on the ES8000 and dissapointed that it doesn't sync. Maybe an issue with drivers on the TV.
    Which Dell mouse (model number) works for you?

  • HT5019 When I swipe between full screen app, the other screen follows

    , can it just change the full screen app of the screen with the cursor?
    when I swipe between full screen app, the other screen follows to a full screen app window with no applications (like a grey linen screen)
    and I can't use that one properly yet I still want to use the full screen app without disturbing the other screen. (the left screen is grey)

    Upgrade to 10.9, Done.

  • My magic mouse does not work with OS X Mountain Lion?

    My magic mouse does not work the direction of vertical displacement with the update OS X Mountain Lion?

    You are correct that you cannot install version 5.x of the AirPort Utility on OS X Mountain Lion. However, once installed it will run just fine. One workaround is to extract the utility directly from the disk image (.dmg) file.
    Here are the basic steps to install version 5.6 under Mountain Lion using CharlesSoft's Pacifist:
    If you haven't already download the AirPort Utility disk image file directly from Apple Support Download
    Place the resultant AirPortUtility56.dmg file onto your Mac's Desktop.
    Run Pacifist.
    Click on the Open Package option. Find the disk image file that you just placed on your desktop, and then, click on Open.
    The utility is located as follows: Contents of AirPortUtility56.dmg > Contents of AirPortUtility56.pkg > Contents of AirPortUtility56Lion.pkg > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6.app
    Drag AirPort Utility 5.6.app to your Mac's /Applications/Utilities folder.
    You can now run the AirPort Utility from the Utilities folder.

  • Restart -- Magic Mouse does not auto-reconnect

    After I updated OS from 10.6.4 to 10.6.5 with the combo updater, upon restart my Magic Mouse no longer auto-reconnect via Bluetooth. I even applied the combo updater for the second time. But, every time I restart my Mac, I have to use a USB mouse to reconnect the Magic Mouse back to the Mac.
    How can I bring the auto-reconnect back? This is driving me crazy.

    I believe that I have solved the issue with the following procedure.
    [0] Let's suppose that, after a restart, the Magic Mouse did not auto-connect.
    [1] Use a USB mouse to open *System Preferences > Bluetooth*.
    [2] In the left-side window, select the Magic Mouse.
    [3] At the bottom of this left-side window, pull down the menu and select *Update Device Services*.
         It may take a moment or two for the update to occur.
    [4] In the left-side window, the Magic Mouse should now appear as Connected.
    [5] Restart the Mac and see if the Magic Mouse auto-connects now.

  • Magic Trackpad is not letting me swipe between full screen apps.

    I am pretty sure it was doing it before but now it has stopped. I can do everything else but I'm just not able to swipe between apps.
    Thanks

    The little scroll ball is probably dirty because it is a random problem. Turn it upside down on a clean fabric surface, or your mouse pad, and rub it all around till the dirt is cleaned out. My scroll quit working in one direction and I searched and searched the community here till I found this relatively easy answer to my problem.
    I used my denim jeans and every thing is working a ok now.
    Hope this helps ...

  • The Full Screen icon does not appear in Firefox 16.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, and command+shift+F does not close the full screen view.

    I accidentally entered full screen view and was unable to exit. The Firefox Help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen+mac&r=0&as=s says I should see a Full Screen View icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Firefox window. That icon not there. I cannot find it. It does not appear in either the full screen or non-full screen views.
    Further, the Help article's advice to exit full screen view by using the keyboard sequence command+shift+F does not work. I had to unplug my iMac and reboot. Firefox then opened in non-full screen view.
    Ideally, hitting the Escape key would cause Firefox to exit full screen view.

    I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

  • Magic Mouse will not swipe from desktop to desktop.

    I just downloaded Yosemite today and got all the updates. So I am completely up to date. My particular computer is an iMac 27" 3.4GHz i7 (2011). I don't know why but the Magic Mouse I use will not swipe from desktop to desktop within my iMac. Also, every application generally has a default desktop that it is assigned to  unless you change it. So, I've had 4 or 5 instances tonight when Yosemite causes, on occasion, a "hang-up" when switching from one desktop to another when the system preference application was open. The glitch or "hang-up" presents itself by freezing when one desktop is switching to another desktop. The freeze occurs when the desktops begin switching from one to another. The desktops show a big black line between them, kind of like two images of film connected to each other. The two desktops continue to move a few inches to the left every 10 or 15 seconds, taking about 1 to 2 minutes for the two desktops to shift from one side of the screen to the other, finally ending up with the one desktop that shows the system preference window. Has anybody had this hang up before? Serious update needed. Also, my magic mouse doesn't seem to respond when I tap it for smart zoom.  This needs to be fixed soon.

    You probably already know this but just in case -
    Desktop swipe is left or right with two fingers and
    Smart zoom is a double-tap with one finger on the magic-mouse by the way (and double-tap with two fingers on a trackpad).
    Do you have all the special gestures enabled in the System Preferences Mouse pane?
    another thing to try is various settings that will help speed up things like "reduce transparency" and others - e.g. see
    http://www.howtogeek.com/199201/how-to-disable-window-transparency-in-os-x-yosem ite/
    http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/10/28/how-to-improve-os-x-yosemite-performance /
    or look for Yosemite performance improvement discussions. good luck...

  • Swipe between full screen apps in Powerpoint - skipping screens

    Anytime I have multiple PowerPoint presentations in full screen mode, when I swipe from other apps to one of the presentations, it automatically skips a screen. For example, I have two presentations open, each in full screen mode side by side.  When I swipe from my browser (in full screen mode) to the presentation, it skips the first presentation and slides to the next.  And it doesn't matter which direction I swipe from.  The first presentation is always skipped and I have to swipe back to get to it.
    Is there a fix for this? Is it a simple setting?  small problem, but annoying.
    Thanks

    Hi there!
    I am searching this forum to find somebody that has noticed this weird behaviour. The closest I came so far is your post.
    So let me explain a little easier... The problem I think you mean is:
    When switching bewtween applications using CMD+TAB it does switch to the space an app is open BUT the app switched to is behind all the other windows on that space. Is that correct?
    This problem is also bugging me alot because I am used to to switch fastly between apps and this just renders the whole process useless. The best workaround I found so far is to stop using spaces (or Mission Control) and keep all the apps in one space to prevent this from happening.
    I really hope Apple aknowledges this bug very soon because this LION deal is a complete mess. Tons of bugs. No fixes.
