    USB port Working for my Wireless mouse but not working for another Devices like Flash Memory ? Anyone can help me plz?

    Hi, is this a question" Post?
    or are you just offering an insight into your Mouse Issue?
    Generally and at times we all have little idiosyncrasies appearing with the running of our Macs.
    I use the same Logitech BT with my MBP. MB & iBook..(not at the same time) Only ever had one issue
    and the cure was to completely Delete the mouse from BT -> Repair Permissions & Reboot then Re Install the BT mouse..Ihave just put a new set of batteries in the Logitech (only 2nd set ever)...L

  • TS2662 my new magic mouse scrolling & swiping will not work

    my new magic mouse scrolling & swiping will not work. Help??

    I had this happen to me as well. just last week (july 28, 2014) I brought my magic mouse from home to work since my work mouse was going south. paired it with bluetooth, it moved and clicked but no scroll or gestures. searched till I nearly ready to give up. then I installed USB overdrive. many forum posts said too remove that. I didn't have it, so I installed it. and then un-installed it.  everything works great now.
    hope this helps someone.

  • Mouse pad virtual wheel not working in bookmarks menu

    Hi,
    My laptops mouse pad wheel does not work in the bookmarks menu. It works fine in any other application or on the main view in firefox. I'm not very organized and have hundreds of bookmarks, it's frustrating to have to wait for the up/down buttons in the bookmarks menu to scroll.
    I've read https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot+scroll+with+mouse+wheel+or+touchpad
    which did not work.
    Here are my specs. I won't dump the entire dxdiag, I'm sure there's a lot of redundant info. in it.

    Maybe FCP 3 doesn't provide support for mouse wheel scrolling? I can't remember and I'm not going to install FCP 3 to test that theory.
    You should be able to at least set the MS mouse driver to perform scroll wheel functions in FCP through the MS mouse preference pane (zoom in/out for example) but I don't know if that includes scrolling.

  • My iMac mouse right click does not work now

    Hi all,
    My iMac mouse right click does not work now.  It was fine a couple of days ago. 
    Right click is definitely enabled, I have checked it several times.
    A Google search revealed that in Firefox it could be that I'm not using the latest version of Firebug.  I have auto updates on and Firebug is the latest version 1.11.3
    I use right click for correcting spell checked words, instead of a suggested correct spelling I get the 'open in a new tab' menu.
    In Firefox when I right click to open in a new tab I get the menu but it does nothing.
    It is driving me mad
    Any help will be greatly appreciated,
    Thank you
    P.S. thought it was suddenly working when I did the spell check in this post but it was the left click doign it....

    I don't use Firefox so I can't test it, but it might be something to do with a preference setting. Have a look at this link (ignore all the instructions), just look at the image of the preferences, there appears to be a setting in Javascript preferences relating to contextual menus. Check to see what your settings are:

  • Optical mouse (AVF AM1940U) is not working in CQ40-101TU which is running Windows 7 32-bit.

    Hi. I'm using Compaq CQ40-101TU which is running Windows 7 Professional 32-bit.. My optical mouse (AVF AM1940U) is not working in USB ports. The pointer of mouse is always stuck at top of the screen. I can move the mouse left or right to both edges of the screen at the top and can right click in this regard it works but I cannot move the mouse down the screen. 
    What is the problem? May I know how to solve it?
    Thanks.

    Ya. Another mouse didn't have problem. This is the first time I face this problem. When this optical mouse is plugged into USB ports, the driver named "iBall Advanced Mouse" is being installed. After that, my mouse cannot working.
    Is that I have to install another driver before using this mouse?
    Thanks.

  • Touchsmart 520-1047c Mouse and Keyboard will not work after sleep mode

    I have an issue which I need some help with. When my computer goes to sleep the wireless mouse and keyboard will not work unless I restart, however each one will wake the system up but will not operate after that. I have tried just making the display go to sleep, both go to sleep but that makes no difference same issue occurs. The only work around I have found is going into the power settings and turning the sleep mode off for booth the computer and display. This does not solve the problem it just masks it. New batteries, unplugged and replugged the dongle, updated the bios and all drivers. Don't know what else to try. Anybody know how to fix this? Thank you in advance for your help.

    luc

    Luke, many of the peripials such as cameras, printers, scanners, some will plug right in and work.
    Others, need to plugged in and restart your computer,for them to work.
    and last but not least some need there own drivers to operate correctly.
    Those that need drivers normally come with an insallation CD for this purpose... Cheers...Don

  • Can not install windows 7 pro using boot camp as mouse and keyboard will not work Help please

    I have a new iMac and trying to install Windows 7 Pro using boot camp. I have reached the stage of starting to load windows from the DVD then discovered the mouse and the keyboards not working so I could not interact with windows installation.

    Open, if not so already, the Windows formatter. Identify the BC Windows partition. It will be the one listed with the proper size you created and/or will be labeled as a C: drive. Be careful you select the right one or you may be corrupting the entire drive.
    Format the partition as NTFS.

  • Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on itunes, how do I move them back to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

  • Update to 10.6.8 and HP F2100 and D2400 Printers stopped working. Restored 10.6.7 and printers from Install CD's but not working,  Same with scanner

    Help....
    Updated to 10.6.8 and HP F2100 and D2400 Printers stopped working.
    Restored 10.6.7 and printers from Install CD's but not working.
    Same with F2100 scanner
    Am I glad I kept Windows desktop as without it I would be scre**ed now
    What is going on with this latest update as its like a return to Windows with things crashing or hanging up every few minutes????
    On a MacBook Air that has not been updated everything still works so what has 10.6.8 done and why won't the restore to 10.6.7 work?
    Steve

    None of those things you mentioned were what I suggested.
    I'm guessing the "ctrl click in printer preferences" means you Reset the Printing System?
    If so, that is what I would have suggested if deleting it by selecting the ( - ) button and then adding it with the ( + ) button.
    But, if HP has a fix, it likely needs to update its drivers.
