Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7 anymore

Hey there,
I've got an iMac running OS X 10.6.8 and Windows 7 via Boot Camp. I just updated a bunch of the Apple stuff on Windows -- iTunes, Quicktime, "boot camp" (I assume that meant drivers and such), and whatnot. Now my Magic Mouse won't work in Windows 7. It was fine before, so I assume the update screwed something up. Help? I know nothing of retrieving old drivers and stuff like that.
Note: I am running Snow Leopard, NOT Lion.

  • Bluetooth mouse won't work in windows

    I have a microsoft bluetooth notebook mouse 5000 that works well in mac osx but when I go to windows 7 in bootcamp it reports that the bluetooth hid device driver is not working and the mouse won't work.
    I can get it to detect the mouse and try to load the driver but then it says that the driver installation did not work.
    In device manager the bluetooth hid device has a warning icon next to it and it says that the device is not working.
    When I try to use my magic mouse in windows the same error happens and it says that the hid bluetooth device driver is not working.
    Both mice work fine in mac osx and the microsoft mouse was working ok in windows until last week.
    Since then, my son installed a couple of games in the windows side and the mouse started acting up the following day.
    Any advice would be very appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi!
    I suffered this problem time and time again, I kept on pairing/un-pairing/re-pairing etc. and then for no reason at all it suddenly worked. What happened I do not know. Be patient. First off use a wired keyboard and wireless mouse and if that works stay with it for a while. Then try both wireless. I found my mouse was more temperamental than the keyboard. You may have to try wireless keyboard and wired mouse (USB into the computer direct).
    Good luck let me know how it goes.

  • My magic mouse won't work.

    I got a low battery warning yesterday & went to change then today. Well, one of the batteries had exploded. I cleaned the area as best I could (it even ate through the cover) but the mouse won't work with the new batteries. Did the acid "kill" my mouse or is it just time to replace it? I got the Magic Mouse right after they came out.

    I already cleaned the contacts before I posted. I would think my Magic mouse would last longer than a couple years. I am going to take the remaining package of batteries back to Costco as they are supposedly good to 2016. I will take the magic mouse too so they can see the damage. Now, If I can only get my bluetooth "Mighty Mouse" to pare with my iMac I would be happy. Good thing I have my laptop!

  • Magic mouse no longer working in Windows 7

    Hi, I posted a topic under the Windows section but got no answer. When I first installed Windows 7 on my Mac (Sorry poor Mac but I had to), my Magic Mouse worked seamlessly with Windows until recently, I booted up in Se7en and my mouse no longer worked, I can't find any trace of bluetooth peripherals on the computer, in "Administration tools" and "Hardware manager" (or whatever it's called) I can't see a sign of my Broadcom Bluetooth adaptor. The bluetooth drivers are installed and I can see that in "Add or remove programs" so I don't know how to fix this. I already tried reinstalling the drivers from the boot camp DVD, and I also uninstalled Boot Camp, reinstalled it and updated it. Nothing works. If you have any ideas apart reinstalling Windows I would really appreciate because using my trackpad on a desk while having a Magic Mouse on the side (especially in Windows the trackpad *****) is driving me nuts. Thanks

    Hi eg1978
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having issues with your two finger scrolling. I have a couple of things for you to try. This HP document Using and Configuring the TouchPad has a section on Turning individual gestures off and on and make sure that the two finger scrolling is enabled. If that does work then reinstall your Synaptics TouchPad Driver.

    why won't my magic mouse work on my Mac mini

    You need to provide a lot more information.  Is it new?  Was it paired with another device?

  • Magic Mouse won't work on mac pro with d-link dongle

    For the first time I am very unhappy with a purchase of an apple product. I today have finally gotten 2 of those magic mice; one is a present for my best friend (who is also excited) and the other one I wanted to keep for myself. Not more to say as an introduction.
    Before I went back home I tried my mouse on one of my late 2007 macbooks, and after the mm update everything was great. I loved the handling, the style, simply everything about that kewl new gadget. I couldn't wait to get home to connect it to my "big boy", my mac pro, where I usually work on all my tasks in my office.
    Since my "bb" is already a bit older (one of the first intel xeons -- 2x2 dual core engines, already upgraded for several times with drives and RAM) and didn't come yet with the internal bluetooth module I have a D-Link DWB-120M USB dongle in use which always has been reliable and so far has connected anything that cried for a bluetooth connection. Till today...
    I installed the software update 1.0 on my big boy and started the recognition routine. The name of the magic mouse appeared, it tried to connect, but then broke up with something I've never seen before: "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Click "Continue" to try again."
    I clicked "continue" for several times, read all the trouble shootings around the globe, reconnected it to my macbook (where it still worked fine and said, batteries are 100%), and finally must face the fact that maybe the dongle (or the procedure with it) must be the reason for the failure.
    I am not really a dull-one; so I finally understand that the D-Link DWB-120M from 2004 might be inoperable in regard of the magic mouse. My bluetooth logi mouse still works with it, but I cannot make the magic mouse work at all.
    So I want to ask into the big bubble if there are people around who could make the new mouse work on on a xeon mac pro with only a usb dongle, and which dongle it would be.. I already tried the support pages of D-Link, but, hey, ...should I really install IE6 or 7 on my mac to get support there??? I guess not.
    Any hint is appreciated. I gladly will get myself a working usb dongle for my big boy, which would make the magic mouse work on it.
    Thanks for your attention. Please add your experiences to my thread; maybe they're more people who would love to take advantage of your experiences.
    ..Blinky shiny magic mouse awaits its first job on big boy..
    Take care
    P

    PS: I run 10.5.8 on all of my macs. I didn't upgrade to snow leopard yet, which I expect would not change anything until the mouse update has been done on all of my macs.
    Thanks again

  • Keyboard and mouse won't work while Windows is loading

    I have mentioned this in another thread in a different section but thought I would post specifically about it here because I do need to find a solution.
    I get no response from my keyboard and mouse (both USB wired, the originals that came with the iMac) as soon as XP starts to load. This means that I cannot e.g. enter Safe Mode because pressing F8 gets no response. Both work fine before Windows starts to load because I can choose to boot from either Windows or OSX by holding down Option as the computer starts up. Also, if I keep pressing F8 immediately after choosing Windows I do sometimes get to the screen which should let me choose Safe Mode but then I can't do anything once there because there's no response from keys or mouse. If I leave it til the screen that says to press F8, it is too late because there's just no response from anything. Once Windows is up and running, all works perfectly.
    Anyone got any idea why this is happening and how to fix it?
    Thanks.

  • Magic Mouse won't stay paired with booth Boot Camp and Windows 7

    So I have a Broadcom Bluetooth 2.1 dongle on Mac Pro 1,1, Lion, Boot Camp 3.3 and Windows 7 latest service pack and latest drivers/operating system. Everything is up-to-date.
    My problem started with Windows 7 not wanting to pair with mini alluminum keybord AND magic mouse. I followed a post somewhere and I was able to get the keyboard to pair and work when I switch between Lion and Bootcamp Windows 7 by removing it from Bluetooth Prefs in Lion, adding it to Windows 7 BC, and then adding it again in Lion.
    However, magic mouse will still work with onlly one: If I add it to Windows 7 and then restart to Lion, add it there and then restart in Windows, it shows as paired in Windows but it does not respond. I then remove it from Windows 7 and add it again, and it works. Then I reboot in Lion. It is on the list, but not connected. Even the option to connect is not available. I try restarting the mouse, no luck. The only way I can get it to work in Lion again, is to remove it and add it again. Now, I go back to Windows 7, It is there on the list, but it does not respond. In short, the Magic Mouse only seems to want to stay paired (or work) with either Win 7 or Lion. Getting it to work with one cancels the other.
    BTW, every time I pair it with Lion, I set it as a Favorite.
    Any suggestions?

    Some more info I have gleaned from my 13" white Core 2 Duo Macbook (not sure what generation - came with Tiger though). If I uninstall the Intel graphics drivers, the Sleep option is gone from Windows 7 but it will hibernate, and when resuming from hibernation the screen comes back on. However, when the Intel drivers are reinstalled the "screen off" problem is present for both hybernate and sleep. Two other data points: the power manager can't turn off the screen (after X minutes, etc) and I can't get any picture on an external monitor either. Just wanted to share.

  • Magic Trackpad won't work with Magic Mouse on brand new 2011 27" i5 iMac

    I have a brand new 2011 27" i5 iMac which I bought with Snow Leopard pre-loaded. Naturally, I included the new Magic Trackpad in my purchase, and though there were some problems with the device in SL - such as it going haywire without explanation - it generally worked, although battery levels were erratic (one day 80%, then an hour later 42%, then 80% again).
    When I installed Lion I did a clean install after backing up to Time Machine - and a Super Dupered external drive. I had some difficulties trying to install Lion from an external flash drive so I deleted again and reinstalled SL, then reinstalled over the SL install I did (with no other software except Mac OS X 10.6.8 and other system updates to facilitate install). Rather than copying apps from my old SL drive, I downloaded fresh copies and reinstalled one by one. I don't use a lot of apps apart from Microsoft Office, browsers and iLife and have not installed any additional scripts, extensions or add-ons (like USB Overdrive). It's a pretty clean install.
    Since then, although I'm generally happy with Lion, the Magic Trackpad won't work! It does work for a little while with basic gestures - mainly moving the cursor and scrolling - then it gives up the ghost and loses connectivity. I have done the following:
    Disconnected and reconnected the MTP after turning it on and off. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Shut the computer down, pulled out the plug, waited two minutes, then started up again. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Run Onyx, shut down computer, then pulled out plug (see above).
    Checked options in Universal Access, shut off "Ignore other devices when trackpad in use" (or whatever the option is). MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    Turned off the Magic Mouse. MTP works for about two minutes, goes crazy then no response.
    But none of this seems to work! I know the MTP is connected because I can see it in the BT menu in the menu bar and also in System Preferences. I have noticed since upgrading that my permissions - which when I bought the computer were totally clean - now run lines and lines about "Library/Core Services" so I am unsure whether this is related. I also notice a lot of people are in the same boat as me, which makes me wonder if it's either a hardware issue or a release issue - after a week or so of totally silent running, my 2TB Hitachi HDD started up with the grumbly tum. I'd really appreciate any tips from anyone out there!

    Hi, marksaner
    You could try installing the latest version of the Synaptics driver. Synaptics is the company that makes the UltraNav driver and drivers for many other computer brands. This driver should have the same functionality as the UltraNav driver, so there's no worry there. You can find the driver here. 
    Hope it helps,

  • Magic Mouse will not scroll in Windows 7 boot camp, but works fine in Mac OS

    I have a Magic Mouse that was working fine it would scroll and everything, then one day it just randomly stopped working in my Windows 7 bootcamp partiontion. I went to the Mac OS to see if there was anything wrong with the mouse, but it works fine in the Mac OS. I already made sure to install all available software updates but that doesnt seem to have helped. Any help would be appreciated.

    My wireless mouse is not recognized by Bootcamp bluetooth.
    Have you been able to solve your mouse issue?

  • Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

    Installed Windows 7 on bootcamp but now my wireless mouse won't work when in windows. What can I do?

    assuming it is an optical mouse (no ball etc.) then there aren't any moving parts involve in the motion detection
    so there's a faulty component or connection
    from what you describe it could be just a loose/broken connection, so if you know someone familiar with electronics see if they can open it up and have a look
