Magic mouse shows script when click

Please bear with me as a completely non-tech but long time Mac user whilst I try to explain what has happened.I use a Home Accountz application which wasn't working well and so I decided to import it from my external HD(FreeAgent  backup drive).I used SuperDuper to copy all the files( including Home Accountz )on my external drive to my iMac internal HD.
Since then everything has changed  on my internal HD-so for example I can't drag windows,swipe with my mouse,when I click on any window a small script window with various options shows.I can't type in  a Firefox search window,the green button won't close a window with a click and so on.
I apologize for not making this clear -but all I can say is nothing works as before EXCEPT on the external HD where everything is working perfectly.
   If anyone can guide me as to how to restore my internal HD software to work as it did, I would be very grateful.
And,again-sorry for this very non-tech description of my problem.

That might be what is happening as again yesterday I went to move to spot light and up came the desk top.
This was the FIRST time that I was able to get back to my programs by doing the opposite.
Just now it happened again, but this time, I held the mouse firmly. Then it hit me - Hot Corners.
I have had hot corners set for years, but this is the first time I have activated it by mistake. Checked the control panel and sure enough, the upper right is set for desktop.
What I find interesting is that with the "Start screen saver" hot corner, you must keep the pointer up there for it to start, not like the others where you touch it and it does the action.
You will get the solved since your suggestion helped me find the true cause.
Thanks

  • Magic Mouse keeps scrolling when clicked

    I tried to find a setting to stop scrolling when the mouse is clicked down, but couldn't find anything. it makes it impossible to use google earth/maps. Can anyone help?

    This seems to be a problem within the Google software. The only thing I've found that helps is to select scrolling without Inertia within the System Preferences.
    Problem is, I like Inertia scrolling in everything else.

  • Magic Mouse Primary and Secondary Clicks Switched

    Recently I picked up a Magic Mouse and have since found some very strange things that I don't know how to fix:
    The primary and secondary clicks are switched. As in, under mouse settings when I select the secondary click to be on the right, only the primary click works on the right side and everything else is a secondary click. It is also very annoying because every time I have more than one finger touching the surface it counts as a secondary click. If anyone knows how to fix this I would really appreciate feedback.
    I looked around in settings and couldn't find anything regarding this matter. I fiddled with some stuff but never got it working properly.
    Feedback much appreciated!

    Looking at another thread in this forum, I see some people who had older apple mice installed before the magic mouse are having this problem with the magic mouse.
    I had an older wireless mouse that would take right-clicks before I set up the magic mouse. Unfortunately when I connect the older wireless mouse I can no longer access it's preferences. It only gives me the preferences a generic one button mouse. Somewhere there must be some set of files I can delete and it will forget this old mouse.
    I am pretty disheartened after a week of this. One of the benefits to a mac is that I shouldn't have to dig around removing drivers and such

  • Magic mouse not working when my computer wakes up from sleep mode sometimes

    This does not happen all the time but it is starting to happen more and more. When my iMac is asleep and I wake it up the mouse is non responsive. I have looked at the green indicator light on the magic mouse and it does not respond as well. I have turned the mouse off then back on and that does nothing. I thank this may be a Bluetooth problem because I have tried this with 2 magic mice. The only way I can get it to work is to restart the computer.
    Please advise??

    I would add the mouse to bluetooth favorites in System Preferences > bluetooth > Highlight mouse on the left > click gear icon below this list > click "show more info" if not already checked > click the gear icon again and "add to favorites".

    If that doesn't do it then a SMC reset might be in order:

  • Magic Mouse won't right click on files, but works fine otherwise. 10.6.8

    My Magic mouse just suddenly seemd to stop right clicking on files. I can right click on blank sapces in finder or on the desktop and it gives me the usual drop down menu but as soon as I try and right click or ctrl+click on a file there's just nothing. Can't seem to find any similar problems on google. Any ideas?

    Hi, yes. The right click would work at start-up until I click on 'always allow' for permissions for google drive, then it dissappears
    Unfortunately I found no other workaround other than to switch to the other views (although I strongly dislike working in the other views). But I just use Drive in my internet browser when I do use it, so it's okay for me to uninstall it. Maybe it's something to contact google about so they can fix it on there side.

  • Magic Mouse extremely sluggish when Time Capsule starts

    Why is my Magic Mouse becoming extremely sluggish when Time Capsule is backing up my data? This is really frustrating, I even stopped backing up my computer because the mouse is becoming almost impossible to use as soon as Time Capsule starts...
    I've heard stories of interferences between Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, can anyone confirm that and provide me with a way to solve the problem? Thanks in advance.

    UPDATE:
    I think I've found a solution.... Though I'm a bit reluctant to post it already because I'd really like to see if it works over time... Anyway, here is the interesting post I found by Mr. Caliostro:
    ... sure, go into your Airport Utility application, inside Utilities inside Applications. Click on Manual Setup when your TC appears in the window. Click on the Wireless tab. You will find a pulldown menu there called Channel. Select your channel & Update your TC settings. I set mine to channel 1 to try it, & it made a tiny improvement. How close is your TC to your mac? Does the interference reduce if you ove further away? Perhaps swapping from 802.11g/n to 802.11n or vice-versa, may help? (depending if your setup can work on 11n-only). Perhaps switching from 2.5ghz to 5ghz or vice-versa may help? both 11n & 11g can work at 5ghz as well as 2.5ghz... Let me know how you go!
    I set the 5GHz channel to 48 and the 2.4GHz to 1. Of course I changed these settings completely randomly since I don't know anything about these things but it actually seems to work pretty fine! No more sluggish mouse during Time Capsule back ups!

  • Magic mouse - windows 7 - one click is required

    i have to click my magic mouse one time to make it working in windows 7 os.. is there any idea to eliminate this problem ?

    It is not a 'problem' the Mouse 'sleeps' when you are not using it, the click wakes it up, otherwise the battery would go flat while you are not using it.

  • Magic Mouse connectivity and now clicking issue

    Had my Magic Mouse for a few years now and it worked perfectly well up until about 12 months ago. It suddenly started to lose connection at random intervals (no it's not the batteries or the terminals) that annoyed me but I got on with it. Now though it seems to of seized up! It was jumping all over the place, selecting things I hadn't clicked and then seemed as if the right click was permanatly engaged. Now it's just not clicking at all which presents a problem in that I can't wen access the settings tab to try and fix it!! Tried taking the batteries out, no change. Restarted the computer manually, no change, changed the batteries even though they were reading 100%... No change. I'm a student again now, I can't afford £60 for a new mouse, especially after reading the thousands of threads about how bad they are!

    "Few years"
    What makes you think that a mouse ( or anything else) lasts forever?
    "Thousands of threads?"  That us quite an exaggeration and clearly not accurate.
    Buy a new one.

  • My Magic Mouse won't double click

    I cannot double click with my new magic mouse (or older wired logitech mouse) to open anything, whether it be in finder, the desktop, iTunes etc...
    I'm sure that it isn't the fault of the iMac as there has been no update or change of settings.

    Hello:
    No apology necessary

    You reset it like this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11243

  • Magic Mouse Losing Connection When Slightly Knocked

    I've had this particular mouse for just over a year and in the last 2 weeks it's started to lose the connection when it's knocked however slightly on the table - for example when repositioning the mouse when moving something between 2 screens.
    I've tried all the usual fixes, new batteries, different batteries, trashing the mouse preferences (as suggested here) and making the mouse a BT favourite, but as soon as it even remotely gets knocked, it disconnects.
    Really frustrating, have gone back to a cable mouse for now but does anyone have any ideas? Is it a genuine fault I can get sorted under my warranty?

    OK I spent  A solid day playing with this and found that there are many correct"ish" answers here, but for the most part I have found that the physical tolerances of the Apple  magic mouse have caused all of my problems.
    THe info about plists and resetting pram are all kind of obvious choices and may work for many people becasue the mouse screws up in that way on occasion.
    For the rest of us, check my earlier post about tolerances. THe battery end plate is one problem. The inserted card thing by Ken Evans is one piece of the puzzle. However for me the biggest piece of the puzzle is the tolerances of the battery plate cover in general.
    The piece that fell into place a day ago  ( a few hours afte my last post) is as follows:
    Look closely at the plate  on the bottom of the mouse - notice how thin it is. Notice how closely it touches the on off switch. Notice that if the plate is tweaked even a little bit it twiddles the on off swich breaking connection. Notice how you use the mouse a- do you lift it and put it down and perhaps press on the plate etc.
    Notice if you press and push and drop mouse etc - anything that twiddles the plate will nail that switch.
    For me I found that the plate was tweaked  such that the middle of the plate  pressed harder against the batteries than the ends did. This effectively "shortened" the length of the plate by a smidge  which was just enough to constantly tweak the on off switch - ie put pressure on it with any major movements of the mouse - especially lifting it and putting it down when i ran to the end of my  pad.
    I re-tweaked the plate in the opposite direction ( not for the klutz- this plate will buckle faster than a teenager with a false id). if you feel handy you can tweak it by springing it lightly against a pencil but I am not buying anyone a new plate  if you bend it.  I also took a small swiss rat-tail file and filed out the  switch hole a bit more - to make it a bit "longer" and hence not rub against the plate
    Result is that  i went from  a lost connection about every minute to no lost connections for the last day. For me the  resetting of the pram and dumping the plist file did not help - hence i looked further.

  • Magic Mouse Losing Connection When Sleeping

    My magic mouse loses its connection when my iMAC goes to sleep. I have the preferences setup to allow my iMAC to be awakened by bluetooth devices... Any suggestions?

  • How do I stop sub-tools from automatically showing up when clicking a tool in the palette?

    I must have clicked something or inadvertantly pressed a keyboard shortcut or something because a couple of weeks ago, the sub-tools on the tool palette started popping up without me having to hold down the mouse button for a second. Now when I click a tool (the rectangular marqee tool for example), the hidden tools (eliptical marqee, single row etc.). Please make it stop! It's annoying as hell.
    I'm using PS CS5 on Windows 7.

    I don't believe there's any configuration option that changes that behavior, but I know what you're seeing has been discussed here before.  Unfortunately, it might be difficult to think of the right terms to search for it.   I don't recall if there was a specific fix or workaround found, though.  I'm wracking my brain and I don't remember one.
    Is there any chance you've gotten the right and left mouse buttons swapped?  Do they pop up immediately when you click the right mouse button (as they should)?
    Have you reconfigured your mouse double-click speed or any other mouse parameters recently?
    Do you have an alternate mouse you can try?
    Have you tried clearing your Photoshop preferences (by pressing and holding Control - Shift - Alt immediately after launching Photoshop)?

    When I brought CRviewer leaving the page ,Code of Radiobutton were working fine.
    But can't to show "CrystalReport1.rpt" on CRviewer when i click CallReportButton. i'm not understand.
    Then i have tried to learn from follow this link : CR not working in visual studio 2013
    and Using Crystal Report in ASP.Net website, Report not showing in CrystalReportViewer
    i have to create a new CR ASP NET project and copy the whole C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client folder

    And project warning!  could not find schema information every element . "Could not find every Element.JPG"
    After that, copy the whole C:\inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client folder into my app folder Only!  not add in my web.config
    (In previous project need to use CR)  make to project were working  but i get same pop-up when i click to show report.
    **** buleline in popup.JPG picture  is "The report you requested requires further information"

    I think you're over-complicating things. I'd like you to have a look at a few sample apps, see how they work, then adjust your app. Samples are here:
    Crystal Reports for .NET SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
    Also, have a look  at Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 Walkthro... | SCN (- applies to all versions of CR and .NET).

    How can I open this view directly when a user clicks in the field using the enter-event?

    Hi,
    as far as I know there is not scripting method available to open the calendar widget.
    You may be able to do this with Bruce's (BR001) custom calendar, but I haven't tested it.
