Mighty mouse in bootcamp not working

Hi Team.
I have just installed Vista Ultimate and the newest drivers for it from apple (the new exe download)
Its all gone well and I am typing to you from the apple wireless keyboard.
However the wireless mighty mouse is not working.
I followed this procedure.
Opened bluetooth in the control panel and added an item. It searched and found the mouse I selected it then told it I did not want to connect with a passkey. Eventually it says connected sucessfully with no pass key. The one of those terribly annoying pop up ballons tells me there is new bluetooth click to use it, I click it and then a new window comes up asking me to enter a pass key?
We can get no further. Basically it says connected but does not work.
Any ideas?

I've got exactly the same problem - iMac with Bootcamp, Vista Ultimate 32-bit, recognises wireless keyboard but keep getting the same pop-up asking for a passkey for my mighty mouse despite asking it to set it up with no passkey.
Went throught the whole Bootcamp/Vista install process fairly seamlessly otherwise.
Anyone got any other ideas?

  • Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and Keyboard not working in Win XP!

    Hi All,
    I simply cannot get my Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and Keyboard to work in Win XP via Bootcamp! The bluetooth icon appears in the tray and even shows that they are connected but they do nothing at all. One thing to note is that they show up as connected but with no password. Could this be the problem? If I reconnected the two with new passcodes for XP, would they still work when I reboot in OSX?

  • Help with Bootcamp (Speakers and mighty mouse scroll wheel not working)

    So I just loaded bootcamp onto my macbook but I'm having some problems.  First, my scroll bar on my mighty mouse doesn't work when in Windows.  The only help I've seen online has been for those who haven't yet loaded windows.  Can I still download a driver that will help me out?  My speakers also are not working and the Realtek driver that everyone said worked for them didn't work for me.  Advice?

    Sorry, this is not possible in the current version of Firefox, but we have an open bug report where we are tracking this issue here:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686228
    With luck it will be fixed in a future version.

  • Bootcamp, Mighty Mouse and Keyboard not working

    Hi All,
    I just install yesterday Windows 7 (Ultimate 64bits) by Bootcamp in my iMac 21" (bought in 2013).
    During the installation, the Mighty Mouse and the keyboard were not working (except the first W7 screens, selecting partition and language), and now, installation finished, i got to use an external keyboard to select username and password, because Mighty Mouse and Wireless Keyboard are not working with Windows.
    I restart the computer using OSX and both are working fine.
    Could you please help me?
    Best

  • Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse internal speaker not working !!!

    Recently I bought an used Wireless Mighty Mouse (first version with grey side buttons), the mouse is working perfectly minus the single little detail that I can not hear any clicking sound from the internal tiny speaker inside the mouse when I use the little scroll ball above the mouse or when I press the grey side buttons, is this normal or should I hear the clicking sound simulated by the internal speaker? is there a way to enable or disable the internal speaker by software? Maybe is disabled by default, I don't know. I really don't think the speaker could be damaged due to the rest of the mouse is working like a charm but maybe mine came without a speaker, could be? or maybe it got disconnected somehow. Any clues or ideas would be very helpful. Thanks !

    I know what a microswitch is, please look at these links, here are the proof there is (or maybe there was) a tiny speaker in some mighty mouse and wireless mighty mouse:

    and I can keep giving you tens of links to proof you that actually there is (or maybe there was) a tiny speaker inside the mighty mouse and the wireless mighty mouse, If yours came without one it doesn't necessarily mean all came without one, right? That is why I asked you what version you have in order to figure out which ones does have the speaker and which one doesn't.

  • Mighty mouse right click not working...

    Hi,
    I've recently bought my macbook pro in the summer along with a wireless mighty mouse. after working on the computer a while, the right click function stops working! i tried installing the software that comes with the mouse but i get the same results...
    any suggestions?
    thanks in advance!

    . Follow the steps for disassembling the MM on many of the web sites until you have the upper shell separated from the base. I found removing the bottom grey ring the easiest method.
    2. Inside the upper shell you will see the plastic backed carbon traces used to detect the finger locations. In the centre of the upper shell is also a copper strip adhered to the shell. The plastic traces and the copper shim have a connection through a carbon dot on the shell where there are two holes next to a black carbon dot. I found that there were two issues with my MM that may have caused my issues. The first was that the plastic detectors were not fully adhered and flat on the inner shell. Then I found that the small carbon button which contacts the copper was not fully pressed down. I ran my finger over the entire internal surface of the shell to press down the adhesive bonded parts and then reassembled the mouse.
    3. Instead of gluing the bottom grey ring back on the mouse, fit it in place with small sections of 3M invisible tape, over the grey ring and upper case, just in case things go awry again. If they're small enough, you won't see them when the mouse in operation and the case remains securely closed. Once you are sure you have no more problems then you can add a dab or two of superglue to permanently close the case at a later date or still have access to clean the scroll mechanism at a later time as well.
    The other outcome might be that my disassembly and reassmbly reseated a poorly contacting cable(s) from the base the the upper shell. Either way, I have a fully functioning right click again in all situations. I have not had to remove the batteries in the mouse for over a week now whereas the power reset was becoming an hourly occurrence previously.

  • Mighty mouse: tracking ball not working well

    "No, kidding", I am sure you are all saying:)
    The mouse works in three directions, but not going down. I have just read another post where someone with the same identical problem as me was told to turn it upside down and rub it vigorously onto a piece of paper. I have done that, but there is no change. Any advice??? Thanks.

    The phone number I found in my manual in the UK is (44) 0870 876 0753.
    Personally I find the website OK but I have to admit sometimes I get a little frustrated but overall I find it very helpful. Last you can always use Google, which is extremely easy.
    As I mentioned you can always go to an Apple Store, here is the link so you can search for the closest store in the UK there are quite a few. I know there is at least one store in Glasgow of course I have no idea how close that is to you.

    I'm afraid I can't help you on their policies however if you would like to provide Apple feedback go to www.apple.com/feedback.

  • Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page...

    Firefox did an automatic update to 6.01, and now my middle mouse button is not working in the browser. It doesn't close tabs, it doesn't open new tabs by middle clicking a link, it doesn't allow me to middle click to scroll the page..

    [BUG FIXED, see "EDIT 2" at the end of my post]
    I'm on Firefox 3.6.21, and I got this problem today after a Greasemonkey update (To version 0.9.10, apparently).
    Disabling Greasemonkey solved the problem, and re-enabling it reproduced the problem (middle-clicking links to open in new tab did not work, merely highlighted the link).
    I should also note that while Greasemonkey was enabled and the bug was affecting me, Ctrl+Click to open links in new tabs was also broken.
    I hope this helps!
    EDIT: It appears this is a known incompatibility/conflict bug between current versions of Greasemonkey and Tab Mix Plus. Read more here:
    https://github.com/greasemonkey/greasemonkey/issues/1406
    EDIT 2: GREASEMONKEY HAS NOW BEEN UPDATED with a workaround to fix the problem. Go to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/versions/ to install the update manually. It hasn't been reviewed by Mozilla yet, so it won't be an automatic update for another day or two. All credit to "cannonfodder" below for noticing this; please mark his post as helpful!

  • Mighty Mouse button doesn't work in Login screen.

    When I boot up my Mac I can move the cursor with the mouse in the Login screen, but I can't click on anything - the buttons don't work. Once I'm logged in the mouse works normally in every way.
    This only happens with the Mighty Mouse - 3rd party mice work fine in the Login screen.
    I can't see any settings in the Mouse System Prefs that would affect this.
    Anybody got a suggestion?

    Nobody got any insights?

  • I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

    I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.

  • Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

    Help! My Mouse pad is not working properly. The arrow cannot be controlled, it just keeps jumping all over the page. How can I stop this?

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and in that case the unit must be serviced or replaced.
    3. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    4. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    5. Reset the System Management Controller.
    6. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    7. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.
