Mighty mouse enable horizontal scrolling

I've a mighty mouse and OS X 10.6.8 and I can't scroll horizontal. I've tried to change the mouse no difference. I've tried to switch between horizontal and 360° scrolling, disable scrolling...but I can't. That's really boring.
Anybody who can help me please?

I think it is an plugin or else...that destroyed the horizontal scrolling. I had a harddiskcrash and I recoverd via timemachine from last december, (10.6.8) was installed. and it worked again. after then i installed some updates and it's not working again....

Wireless Mighty Mouse - No Horizontal Scroll

PB G4 10.4.6
Brand new Wireless Mighty Mouse.
Vertical Scroll - ok
Zoom -ok
Will not scroll Horizontally - and have no idea of what 360 is

To achieve horizontal scrolling you have to select the 360 Degree option. With this option, the mighty mouse driver activates the x-axis sensor inside the mouse. With both x- and y-axis sensors working, the scroll ball operates like your typical analog ball mouse of yore--only it's upside-down. Personally, I think the System Preference option should read "2π Radians."

Mighty Mouse won't scroll

None of the answers to this topic solved my problem. All of a sudden my bluetooth mighty mouse won't scroll. I can set it to 360 degrees and it will scroll horizontally. But it won't scroll horizontally or vertically if I set it to both. Help!

Have you tried resetting bluetooth?
I have been having the same problem since nearly as long as I've had my mighty mouse, and cleaning it never solved the problem.
I just called apple and got them to send me out a new one, but before they did they told me to do this.
Turn off your Mac, removed the power and battery and hold down the power button for 5 seconds. Then turn it back on, but while you turn it back on hold down the altcmnd+RP buttons together. You will hear it ching two times as it turns on, let go after the second ching. This apparently resets the bluetooth and it fixed my mouse, it now works perfectly.
I'd recommend taking the advise of an apple technical advisor first before trying this, I have a MacBook from last year and that's what i did.

My wired mighty mouse no longer scrolls down - only up and sideways.

My wired mighty mouse no longer scrolls down; only up and sideways. It could be a hardware problem and I guess I should go and by a new mouse but before I do I thought I'd check whether there was any parameter I could change to fix or test this. Anyone else had this problem? Cheers.

HT2845 why doesn't my mighty mouse track ball scroll up or down vertically?

why doesn't my mighty mouse track ball scroll up or down vertically?

Hi:
New ones are not that expensive, but I would try running it up and down (vigorously) on microfiber cloth or a towel or something.
If that does not fix it...yes I would buy a new one. I like wireless ones anyway

Mighty Mouse Won't Scroll Down - Solution

My iMac's mighty mouse wouldn't scroll down even after furious cleaning with a damp cloth and all that this discussion site advised.
I took the mouse into the new Cabot Circus Apple Store here in Bristol, UK. Five minutes later I was out again with a fully restored mighty mouse scroll ball.
The 'genius' used a isopropyl alcohol Prep Pad, as used by your doctor to sterile your arm before using a hypodermic needle. You can probably buy these down your local Chemists/Pharmacy. He gave me a strip of these sachets marked "Medium - Alcohol Prep Pad" manufactured by Dynarex Corporation. They seem to be selling for about £1.25 for 200. Cheap as chips even in this day and age.
http://www.quickmedical.com/dynarex/disposable-wipes/alcohol-wipes.html
He then advised me to clean my mouse this way once a week to keep it in tip-top condition.
I'm sure I read somewhere that one wasn't supposed to use anything other than a damp cloth on these devices. Oh well, there you go.
Hope this helps anyone else who have found their mouse tracker ball has stopped working.

I think you have missed the point.
Try asking yourself, what would you do if rubbing your mouse on paper was no longer enough? That's the situation I was in.

Mighty Mouse will not scroll horizontally uder 10.3.9 why???

Hi all
I was trying out my Mighty Mouse under 10.3.9 and it's not scrolling horizontally and on Apple support sight it said that it should scroll horizontally and vertically but it just doesn't scroll horizontally why is this? I have tried it on 10.4.10 and no problem here so I know that the scroll ball works and not broken. Is it a software/hardware "glitch" under 10.3.9 or a typo in part of Apple and if not how can I make it scroll horizontally under 10.3.9????
Thanks!!!!!
PS: Here's what Apple says in they're "Support" section:
+*If you use Mighty Mouse on a computer with Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier, the mouse offers the following functionality:*+
+*Primary and secondary button functions are assigned to left and right buttons respectively*+
+*Vertical and horizontal scrolling is enabled (scrolling can't be disabled)*+
+*Can activate Exposé from the Exposé pane in System Preferences*+

I believe the booklet that came with the mouse explains what features work with each version of Mac OS X (I can't remember the page - I don't have the booklet to hand at the moment); I would expect the scroll ball to work with 10.3.9...

Mighty Mouse will not scroll

I've had this wireless Mighty Mouse for almost a year now and it won't scroll down. I've read how to clean it but it still won't work. Does anyone know how to take it apart so I can get at the scroll wheels. On other mouse's I've had this is what I needed to do to clean the wheels so it would scroll again. But with this MM I can't see anyway to take it apart.
I love the mouse, but can't see spending 75 bucks a year to replace it.

If you dont want to open your mouse, get a small can of contact cleaner from Radio Shack or similar. While holding down the ball with a finger nail spray switch cleaner into the gap created by depressing the ball. Immediately roll the ball in all directions to clean the contacts within. Repeat two or three times and you should be back in business for a couple of months. Contact cleaner is expensive so get a small can, it will last you a long time. It the can comes with a small spray tube (usually attached to the side of the can) use it as it will help to get the cleaner to where it is needed most.

Mighty Mouse won't scroll up, only down

I had this problem again tonight, but this time a restart didn't work.
So I took the mouse and turned it upside down, and rolled with pressure the scroll ball on my mouse pad. I rolled in all directions, then plugged it back in. It worked. Which leads me to believe that the first time it happened, the restart didn't have anything to do with it.
Before I rolled the scroll ball, I tried just unplugging and plugging back in, besides the restart. It seems that the scroll ball got "out of whack" as I now can here a a louder "zipping" sound as the scroll ball moves around.
I read some other posts about this problem, you might want to try rolling your ball around your mousepad and apply some pressure.

...and while you're at it, perform this action on a slightly moistened (I used Glassex) tissue. My MM wouldn't scroll down and I suspected dirt and grease from my finger to be the culprit. The cleaning solved the problem, and I even didn't unplug it.
There is KB article on this topic:

Mighty Mouse won't scroll in Stickies application

Can anyone tell me if there's a way to get a Mighty Mouse to scroll text inside a Stickie note? My Logitech wireless mouse does it, but when the batteries die I have to use my (wired) Mighty Mouse and it seems to scroll in all applications EXCEPT Stickies (G5 Quad). Even on my wife's G4 PowerBook, her wireless M.Mouse won't scroll in a Stickie note. It seems odd that any 3rd party mice will but the M.Mouse won't. Am I missing something?

Doesn't look like you're missing anything at all, strange indeed though!

Mighty Mouse Can't Scroll Down?

I am having trouble with the Wireless Bluetooth Mighty Mouse. For some odd reason the Scroll Ball will no longer scroll Down? Has anyone else had any of these problems? Does anyone know how to fix them? If so please let me know.

Hmm well I have seen the first article...
I just now tried the second article I cleaned it and everything but I am still unable to scroll down...
I do not have Vertical Scrolling Disabled.
Like I said this mouse is a Hand-Me-Down from my Dad and he has gone through about 5 of them because of this problem. ALTHOUGH His doesn't clean his Apple products that much (it gets on my nerves) BUT I tried Cleaning it and I am still unable to scroll down wards...
The retail price for Mighty Mouses are?
$50.00 or $60.00 for the BlueTooth?
and $30.00 for the Wire Mighty Mouses?
I am thinking maybe I should purchase anther one and have it be MY Mighty Mouse and clean it regularly.
I am using the Mighty Mouse now and it works fine except I can scroll down but I would hate to but another because this one works very well.
I am wondering if Apple could "clean" it if I dropped it off at my local Apple store? Although I could just buy another if I did that?
But if anyone has any other ideas or any other help they could give me that would be great.

Mighty Mouse can't Scroll DOWN over Ads

Does anyone else have this issue?
Safari Beta (3.0.3), 10.4.10, USB mighty mouse.
When I go to some pages, say this one:
http://gamers-creed.com/?p=230.
And scroll down over the ads, the scrolling stops. Scrolling up is fine. It's annoying because it fees like it's intentionally trying to get me to stop and read an ad.
I've narrowed it down to javascript, (off everything is fine) and possibly iFrames. Does anyone have any info, or know of a way to retain full scrollability (is that a word?) and keep evil javascript on?
Thanks!

Hi
I've noticed the same with both my iMac Mighty Mouse, and iBook Logitech Mouse. Both machines are using 3.0.3. This has been happening with Beta 3 from the get-go.
I've sent a bug report to Apple via the Safari Menu>Report Bugs to Apple.

Tabs in a page enable horizontal scrolling,How NOT to do that?

I have a page with 17 tabs, each tab has a different permission group, so each user can see only the tab for his group.
Some users have access to more than one group, so they can see more than one tab.
When a user with more than 5 or 6 tabs logs in, that number os tabs enables the horizontal scrolling, making the page looks horrible, and some tabs end up outside the visible area.
I need to 'break' the tabs in lines, so it does not enable the horizontal scrolling.
Is it possible to do that?
Is its possible, how can I do that???

the best way how NOT to do the scrolling is to have shorter tab names or view on a higher resolution. there is no way to make them default to a new line of necessary.
Frankly, I would look back at the layout and design aspects of the page because 17 tabs is a TON of information to download each time you access a page even if you cant see them all.
You could have the information separated as pages instead of tabs or use item level security instead of tab level to fix this problem.

Mighty Mouse will not scroll up!

I didn't know where to post this but since this is the most popular place for the mighty mouse, I decided to post here.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get the little scroll ball to scroll up?
It stopped working last night.
It will scroll down but not up.
Any suggestions!!!!
Thanks,
Sam

Mine has stopped scrolling down - - again.
I first thought it was a mechanical thing - dirt or something in the mechanism.
Once, though, a reboot got it working.
Now it only scrolls up, not down.
Even when it was working, the scroll up was smooth, but the scroll down was jerky and uneven.
If it continues, I will return it for a replacement.
This seems to be one Apple's flops.
