Magic mouse is not allowing me to use all the features

I just got this mouse and the computer yesterday 02/18/10. I'm unable to scroll from left to right nor the other feature I thought I should be doing with the mouse. I'm new to macs so all this is a little confusing. Do I have the correct software that is needed with this mouse. In the store this mouse was the best. Please tell me what an be the problem.

Lack of experience possibly'.
To get the 360 degree scroll you need to be 'zoomed in' closer (than 1:1) to a picture or web page so that it is too large to fit on your screen.
As you know, with Windows you need, at all times' to scroll the bars at the bottom and/or right of the screen to move the display around (a little like an altazimuth telescope is manouvred). Also, if you accidently leave the scroll bar when dragging, the screen immediately snaps back to where you started from rather than knowing how far down you got before your cursor moved off the bar (if it did). You are certain to know what I mean.
If you are similarly 'zoomed in' to a picture on your new Mac, you don't necessarily need to click and drag on the scroll bars at the bottom (or right) of the window, or use the scroll wheel to move the screen vertically. With your Mac, when zoomed in to a greater than 100%, the mouse allows one toscroll 360 degrees with the mouse - not just vertically. But the picture (or web page needs to be zoomed in somewhat - i.e. greater than 1:1)
With Web pages in Safari and any other Web Browser (with the possible exception of IE with which I have had no experience with sometime before 2002 and I have only 'heard' that it doesn't work ), if you use the keys 'cmd and '+" together.
At he end of the day, you just need to keep exploring your new Mac and have fun finfing all the added extras for yourself.
(There's do many little treasures, it just gettng the time to find them all, in my experience.)

    I have also tried the fixes offered in this forum such as using the "Other" mail in setting up the gmail accounts, and not using the dedicated gmail setting.  I also went to google and signed in and enable the additional devices.  I had the same problems with the original account I set up for gmail, but it corrected when i went to using the "Other" instead of the Gmail button.  I was able to set up the new gmail accounts on my iphone without problem and on my husband's ipad1 for his gmail account.  Just the ipad 2 is giving me problems.   Again, thanks for any suggestions.

  • My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use the functions of Icloud on the same account at Verizon or do we have to have separate accounts to be able to use all the features

    My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of both getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use all of the features of Icloud with one account at Verizon or do we need to have separate accounts?

    If Mail in Mavericks is the same as earlier versions you can select accounts in the sidebar, so that you can either display the inboxes for individual accounts, or the contents of all the account inboxes. (If the accounts don't show click the disclosure triangle next to 'INBOX'). The layout may have changed since the version I have - Snow Leopard - but you should be able to do the same thing.

  • Unable to use all the feature of my email service (Juno on the web) like; font size/color, bolding, italics, highlighting etc why? Those features work through Internet Explorer but not Firefox.

    When I go to my Juno on the web through Firefox, I am unable to use the tool features such as:
    Font size / Color
    Bolding
    Italics
    Bullets
    Highlighting
    just to name a few. Yet when I bring it up through Internet Explorer these features work, plus the way Firefox reads my Juno the tabs are distorted (the page is not formatted correctly, I contacted Juno they said I should contact my modem company AT& T they said no so you are my last resort.. Please help resolve my issue, THANK YOU in advance for assisting with this matter.

    It is up to Juno to enable Midas, the Rich Text Editor which is built into Firefox, with one little line of code on every web page that has RTE for IE. There's nothing that you can do to turn that feature on your self, it has to be coded on each web page that has Rich Text Editing.

    Their ignorance probably lies with their staff programmers only knowing how to do it for IE ''(their training and certificates are probably from the Microsoft cabal)'', and not realizing that Gecko and WebKit apps each have their own Rich Text Editor's, which require their own small line of code to enable those Editor's.

  • My audio is not working and i use all the technique for this. what is the problem?

    1.Product Name and Number-
    HP Pavilion DV4-1318TU
    2.Operating System-
    Windows Vista 32-bit, Home Premium
    3.Error Message-

    4.Any Changes made to my system before the issue occured-
    when the problem occured then I use microsoft fix it but can't success.

    Had similar issue calling Apple seems to be the only way to resolve the problem.  The issue can be resolved when you get to iTunes, since they are the ones that keep  this info. They will ask you your security questions and your purchases software, music etc. Once they are happy with your answers they will get you back up. If you choose you could go the route of forgot my password etc. but I never had any luck with that. Just my 2 cents.

  • Where do I find information on how to use all the features of iPhoto on the iMac?

    I was told that iphoto  would be easy to use on IMac but I am not finding that true.  Is there a guide to how to use Iphoto?  Transferring photos from my external drive to iphoto is not working as I would expect.  It imports them to a new "last import" and not to the folder I want.  I am frustrated and can't find information that is helpful.  help window only gives me connections I'm not looking for.  I'm not seeming to ask the right questions.  Can't even find the category I'm looking for.  Is there a guide somewhere that I don't know about?

    There's also this popular book: Amazon.com: iPhoto: The Missing Manual: 2014 release, covers iPhoto 9.5 for Mac and 2.0 for iOS (Missing Manuals) (9781491947319): David Pogue, Lesa Snider: Books

  • My Magic Mouse is not moving the pointer on the screen but it allows me to scroll  up and down by sliding my fingers on the mouse.

    My Magic Mouse is not moving the pointer on screen. However, it is allowing me to scroll text up and down by dragging my fingers on the mouse.  How can I recover full use? I am using a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. All indications are that the mouse is connected through the Bluetooth connection and the batteries have significant life in them.

    Have you tried this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3048?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US#7
    Mouse does not track as expected (jittery, jumpy, slow, fast).
    The Apple Wireless Mouse can be used on most smooth surfaces, however if tracking issues occur try these options:
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu, then choose Mouse from the View menu. Set the Tracking slider to adjust how fast the pointer moves as you move the mouse.
    Try using a different surface to see if the tracking improves.
    Turn the mouse over and inspect the sensor window. Use compressed air to gently clean the sensor window if dust or debris is present.
    If multiple Bluetooth wireless devices are in use nearby, try turning them off one at a time to see if the issue improves. Bandwidth intensive devices could affect tracking.

  • Hi i;m using macbook pro . magic mouse pointer not moving, but do all the rest of things

    hi i;m using macbook pro . magic mouse pointer not moving, but do all the rest of things

    thank you, i have tried you suggestion but it is still just prompting me to restart rather than allowing me to install the os from the os boot disk. the problem began when the macbook was just showing me a folder icon with a question mark on it rather than starting normally. reading through forums lead me to replace the hard drive and hard drive data cable to try and resolve the issue. however, even after having done this the folder with the question mark is still appearing. i cannot get the os istall disk to boot properly. it recognises that the disk is in the drive but continually prompts me to restart and wont allow me to boot from the disk. sorry if my previouse discription wasnt accurate. does this soun familliar and can you help with this more detailed discription of the problem? thank you.

  • 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?

  • Photo shop is not allowing me to use the "Intersect with current selection"

    Photoshop is not allowing me to use the "Itersect with current selection" marquee. (The "UNION" between two selection marquees.) When I press the [Shift] + [Option] keys while dragging on a first selection marquee, this just creates a new selection and removes the old selection. I have also tried using the "intersect with selection" icon which is not working either.

    Has it previously scrolled horizontally?   Is the fault restricted to certain browsers or program facilities?   What machine are you using it on?    Has this problem appeared following an OS upgrade.

  • 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.

  • 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.
