Magic Mouse: Double-click function

I have "secondary-click"(right) activated on the "magic mouse" and it's great if I want to open a drop-down list on a page.
However, on the "mighty-mouse" which I had before, the "right-click" was set up to act as a "double-click" which was very handy for opening documents and folders etc.
Is there any way to set up the "magic-mouse" so that a "right-click" will act as a "double-click"?

You could try a third-party driver like BetterTouchTool (http://blog.boastr.net/?page_id=1722)

  • In Yosemite, Magic Mouse double-click function doesn't work

    On my iMac running Yosemite 10.10.2, the double-click function on the Magic Mouse no longer works. So to open a folder, or anything for that matter, I must always do click-control ---and that doesn't work for everything. For example, I can't double click on a character in Glyphs, so this renders Glyphs useless. And so on... I have gone into preferences to see if anything was amiss in the settings, but everything checked out fine. Is there a fix for this, or do I have to wait for the next upgrade for Yosemite? Help! Thanks... --Royce

    What's the answer to this mouse problem, please? Why does my double-click no longer work on my magic mouse since downloading Yosemite 10.10.2 to my iMac? 
    What's up Apple?

  • Magic mouse double click not operating. With iMac 24" and 10.6.8 bluetooth cannot discover the mouse and spins for ever, but mouse was working OK until 2 weeks ago. Now double click does not work, have to go to menu to open messages etc.. A nuisance.

    Magic mouse is not discovered by bluethooth software, but it worked OK until 2 weeks ago (10.6.8 and iMac 24). Now the double clik does not open messages, I must go to the file menu to do it. A nuisance. Closing a file takes exactly 2 or 3 seconds! Any idea? Mouse and batteries are OK and checked by retailer. Please help.

    Also using iMac 10.6.8
    My magic mouse works ok but I am getting the same message from Mouse prefs that no mouse is “discovered” and the progress gear spins forever. For the time being, at least, my mouse functions as expected.
    I have trashed mouse prefs and rebooted, but that did not solve the problem.

  • Magic Mouse Middle Click in Windows 7 64-bit Bootcamp?

    Any ideas?, I found something (link below) but I'm not sure if its safe.
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/26184/magic-mouse-middle-click-in-windo ws-7-64-bit-bootcamp

    That looks relatively safe but quite impractical in the long run.
    I'm looking to achieve something similar, getting the middle click button to work, since it would be very useful through general productivity in terms of web browsing as well as for gaming such as Minecraft (building).
    Anyone got any ideas as to how to achieve this? I know it's not possible to get this functionality in OS X without some third-party tool such as MagicPrefs, but surely it should be possible in Windows.
    Thanks.

  • Drag and hover double click function isn't working

    Hi people, I have been unable to click hold and drag items into folders and use the double click function when it hovers over.
    It just seems to have turned itself off. I have looked at settings and everything is as it usually is. Can't seem to get it working. Didn't occur with any particular software update just stopped working.
    Can anyone help get this working again?
    Cheers

    It might be a mouse issue.
    I suggest rebooting, and if that does not help, reset the PRAM

  • Apple mouse right click function stopped working

    After 4 and a half years my Apple mouse right click function on my iMac stopped working.  However the mouse works perfectly on my other iMac.  The apple store said the problem is in the iMac.  Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks, jpm3577

    First log into another user account on your Mac and see if it work correctly there.  If not boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and try there.  Also try another USB port on the Mac if it's a wired mouse.

  • Magic mouse right click problem in Mountain Lion

    Hi!
    My Magic mouse right-click doesn't work in Mountain Lion! in previous OSes it was working properly (Leopard and Lion), but when I upgrated to Mountain, this problem occured.
    if you click anywhere on the magic mouse, it simply do a click, not a right-click anyway...
    I did a lot of searches and changes but the problem is still alive...
    somewhere suggested disabling "Secondary Click", then restart, and then enabling it. but nothing changed...
    somewhere suggested to remove two files named "com.apple.Bluetooth..." in /Library/Preferences, and then restart the system, but this not worked for me, too...
    I changed the "Secondary Click" to "Click on the left side" but nothing changed and the magic mouse did just clicking and not right-clicking!
    I wondered what can I really do to solve this problem?!
    any suggestion is appreciated...

    I still use the magic-mouse and still it's not stable. I've found theONLY way to overcome the rightclick is to make sure that you're NOT pressing anywhere else on the mouse (even touching) and only pressing at theTOP right-hand most corner.
    It's not the best resolution, but the best that Applecare could provide me with. I thinjk, because it's relatively new due to the new generation of capacitive touch devices that we all get the bugs/flaws.
    As like the iPhone, although an EXCELLENT device, and the various versions of OSX, we're going to be plagued eith bugs until a newer review comes out.
    The way I found out was to use BOTH tools (MagicPrefs and BetterTouchTool) together, and in both set the Rightclick sensitive area to a near nothing for system wide (non app specific).
    It does fail at times on some apps, and takes a few clicks, but 90% of the time it's cleared up.
    I somehow think that most developers (and yes its the developers not apple) that forget that we rest out palms on the mouse) and they don't filter out the events forrectly (i.e. a palm on the mouse is seen as a tap). Othere works well, for exmaple I use photoshop, which adapted well to the mouse. The majority of games, and including those (ESPECUALLY THOSE) flash mbased, don't like the mouse at all!

  • Distinguishing b/t two single mouse-click and mouse-double-click

    Hi,
    I am curious to find out how Forms will distinguish between two single when-mouse-click events and a single when-mouse-doubleclick event. Is it simply a timing issue or is there more involved i.e. the 'co-ordinates' of the mouse. Thanks in advance for any opinions given,
    regards,
    Kevin.

    The difference is same as the difference of Apple and Orange.
    Its depends on O/S and event management within OS kernel.
    You can change the timing in Control panel of mouse double click.

  • Magic mouse rt click stopped working

    My magic mouse right click is not working. I have looked and the box is checked in the preferences but still not RT click. Please advise

    Hi there
    Yes the preferences does not help with this issue I have done everything to get my right click back but no joy. Until now this is a kind of fix for it. If you go to google and search magicprefs it is a free download and it basically lets you pick and choose what your mouse gestures  does for you when you swipe ,click and tap your mouse thus you can click on the right mouse gesture and voila you have right click back.
    Hope that is a help I know how frustrating it has been.

  • MOUSE DOUBLE CLICKING

    I have an hp mouse...however it says product of china on the back..It does look like an hp mouse though..
    Anyhow..it's doubleclicking..it's driving me crazy..
    I've had the mouse for a few years..
    It just starting doing this..
    I"m running XP
    It is a USB..with a red light under it...with an optical eye?...Not sure if that's what they call it..
    Please help..Are there drivers I can use to fix this...
    I"m not sure if a windows update..might have done this..
    Many thanks..

    Hi kittylondon,
    I understand your mouse is acting like you are double-clicking even though you are only clicking. Take a look at the following, Troubleshoot mouse double-clicking when you single-click. The document also applies to Windows 7 and Windows Vista, so you will have to make sure you are referencing only the portions that apply to Windows XP. I hope this is of help to you. Best of luck. Have a wonderful day.
