Mouse left/right click only working in Dock

My mouse Razer naga had stopped working after i interrupted a sleep
i tried PRAM reset, and SMC reset. Also tried safe boot
not working still
i can move it and click in dock and in Safari it opens links just like when you cmd+leftclick "new tab open"
is there anyway i can reset usb/keyboard/mouse so i can reinsert it agian so mac finds it agian and let's me configurate it ?

This is getting stranger and stranger. I did a test of a simulation, then one based on a standard Adobe template. In both cases the right-click worked.
Then I created a whole new template, created a simulation based on it, and it didn't work, and reported an error on the page that gave the following details.
Ah! Could it be that I didn't store my template in the "Templates" directory, but on my flash drive?

Mighty Mouse Wireless Right Click not working

Hi Friends!
I am having some difficulty getting my Right Click on my Wireless MM to work. I am aware that I need to keep my left finger off the mouse but it still does not seem to be working.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks !
J

Try replacing the battieries (or just taking them out and putting them back in). Forcing the connection between the Mighty Mouse and the iMac to break. Then put the new batteries, or the ones you were you using from before, in the MM.
Re-link the Mighty Mouse to the iMac and try applying the settings for the right click function in System Preferences.
Remember to mark as helpful or solved.

Magic Mouse left right swipe not working

I got the mouse with my computer about a month ago. And suddenly, the left/right swipe has stopped working. I've wiped down the top and changed the batteries. I restarted. It doesn't seem to be working.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it?

Take it back to Apple and get a new one, yours is still under warranty.

Does replugging help? Could you post a full dmesg including the attempt to replug (please annotate).

Right Click stopped working on my Magic Mouse. It works on Wife's MacBook

I have a Mid-2011 21.5 iMac, 2.5 GHz., 12 GB Memory, Yosemite 10.10.1.
The Right Click stopped working on my Magic Mouse. I have tried disabling and re-enabling it in System Preferences without Success. I have tried to enable the Secondary Click to 'Click on left side' just to see if I could get the secondary click to work. All of the other functions work.
I tested it on my Wife's MacBook and it is fully functional.
Can anyone help?
Thank you In advance.

Thank you for replying Old Toad. I was able to follow your instructions but nothing changed. My Bluetooth Mouse driver was a bit different, it include .plist
com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse
com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse.plist

Wireless Mighty Mouse Looses Right Click Functionality

I am using a new Wireless Mighty Mouse (about one month old) With new batteries.
Since I started using it, the (secondary) right click would stop function after repeated use. After many frustrating trouble shooting attempts, I discovered that the Right Click will work again if the mouse is left idle for about 15 - 20 minutes.
I will like to know if this is a defect that's inherent in the Mighty Mouse system, and if so, has anyone found a solution to this problem or is there a fix?
Any input would be very much appreciated

Unfortunately my experience suggests no. I'm on my 5th (or is it 6th?) wireless Mighty Mouse now, and they've all behaved just as you described. The latest replacement was only a week ago. I suspect the only point in replacing it further times would be to demonstrate that you've tried all you can. As far as I can tell, my only recourse at this point is convincing Apple to refund me, which is a shame because I like the scroll ball design.
I should note that I'm in Australia, in case stock has been slower to update here, but it shouldn't make a difference...
I've noticed that the problem seems to occur a lot more frequently under hot conditions - room heater on, hot hands etc. Could it still think the left button is being touched because it's warm and/or sweatier than usual?

Problem with Mighty Mouse in Right Click with Windows Vista Business

Hi APPLE,
I have a laptop, Sony Vaio, with Windows Vista Installed in it, i have purchased Apple Wireless Bluetooth Mighty Mouse. Sometimes I get no response when i right click...when i disconnect the mouse, then right click becomes active...but after using for long, right click becomes left click and left click acts normally. Could anyone tell me why this is happening, Can anyone tell me any fix/update/patch Apple has provided for Windows Vista. Is there any driver to configure Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse in Standalone Windows Vista.

Hi, I have the same situation as u, I am also a viao laptop with Windows Vista Ultiamte, however, my BT might mouse never work at all. How did u do it ? Did u installed any software?

Might Mouse and Right Click

Well, I just recently got my MacBook Pro, and along with it a keyboard and the mighty mouse.
I just converted from PC, so I'm very used to the right click. I know the right click is possible with the mighty mouse, but is there any way to make it more sensible to the right click? What I mean, is that sometimes I'll right click, but it'll do a left click. I've also noticed that in order for the right click to work, I have to completely lift my other finger off the mouse so it doesn't do a left click, and even that sometimes doesn't work.
Is there any way to fix this?

Well, right click as you normally would except lift your finger so as to not activate left click, there's nothing to it. As long as you lift your finger right click should work, your hand is unlikely to cancel it out, unless your fingers are on the squeeze buttons on the side.

Mighty Mouse (BlueTooth) Right Click Problem

Many times when I right click on the mouse, nothing happens.
If I move the tab (on back on mouse) covering the blue tooth signal, apple reports mouse not found. The mouse then is found and my right click function works. I did this to reset the mouse to solve the problem but it does not make it a permanent solution.
Do I have a defective mouse or is this a normal behavior with this mouse. I have used other mice before on Windows PC and no other wireless mice exhibits this behavior.

"Laser illumination is considered more superior " ???
Yes, I'm a 20+ year veteren of many Apple mice.
Laser is clearly the superior choice over the optical in the MM.
MM skips with detail moves, this Logitech mouse is precise and smooth.
The Logitech mouse is wireless and has it's own combination charger stand/bluetooth(?) reciever that just plugs into a USB port. No batteries to worry about. Plus it's more egronomic and one can do a right click and a left click at the same time, unlike a MM.
Apple's MM (in both forms) is clearly inferior, I've been through two already since they have been out. Being the Apple loyalist I am, I gave it a second try. But I need to get some work done without having to fight a greasy scroll pea and gunked up rollers with MM.
In this hardware case Apple has been clearly bested, perhaps it was intentional, who knows? Apple's MM just plain under-performs.
I'm almost positive you'll be happy with this Logitech brand/type of mouse.
I'm sure if you shop around you can find it on sale, I did for about $30. A fraction of what a wireless MM would cost you.

I have a MBP 15" with iPhoto 9. When right clicking on icon in dock 3 iPhoto libraries come up; one empty, one with 35,000 photos and one with 30,000 photos. How can I delete the empty one and merge the other two without getting duplicates?

You can delete the empty one by dragging it to the trash ( test everything before emptying the trash)
Merging libraries requires iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - it is the only current solution to merging libraries

How to remove sites when right-clicking Safari in the Dock?

Right clicking Safari in the Dock shows 3 sites visited awhile ago. There is a diamond shape before each. And each is repeated several times, 16 for one. I've cleared History, closed Safari, removed it from the Dock, restarted Safari. they're still there. Opening them and deleting just increases the amount.
I'm stymied.
Any help would be appreciated.

I've resolved the issue myself.
First, let me clarify, each of these "sites" had several tabs.
Here's what worked: by Option-clicking on one closes all other tabs. Of course this can be done manually, closing each tab separately.
Once all but one tab is showing click the "close", red circle, button and the site deletes from the Safari list in the Dock.
Not sure why this anomaly happened but I know how to fix it if it should happen again.

Remove pointer from the left/right click areas of Synaptics touchpad

Just received my U510 a couple of days ago and the touchpad is driving me crazy. My pointer moves around in the left/right click areas of the touchpad which is causes me to continually make the wrong selections because of a slight movement made by my finger in the click area.
I spoke with both hardware and software support at Lenovo and it appears that this is the way it is. They uninstalled and reinstalled drivers and tried to make various adjustments, that I had already tried, without success. I had first level support and they wanted to reinstall the O/S thinking that this was a hardware issue. I tried to explain that I just simply want my right click to be a right click only and my left click to be a left click only in those areas of the touchpad wihtout my cursor/pointer moving while my finger is in those areas. They did not understand.
I am running on Windows 8.1 and have the latest Windows 8 Synaptic driver 16.2.21.3. Lenovo tried to install the driver for 8.1 but it will not install. I don't think it will make a difference anyway.
This really isn't a problem just a major annoyance.
Has anyone tried contacting Synaptics about this? Any suggestions?
Thanks---

re: Please help! (And do not allow my silly username to deter you from giving me a helpful anwer.
Perhaps the person who gave you the silly username can be persuaded to change it?
Very sad you are in such a jam that you've got to ask the people for mercy in this way.
Anyhow, in answer to question, if not a mechanical issue, then perhaps drivers.
If it is mechanical (unlikely) would not recommend you try to fix, send for repair.

How do I change my mouse to right click for copy and paste

How do I change my mouse to right click for copy and paste?

OK, what mouse are you using? Brand, model? Your right click should register as a right click unless that has been overridden by a preference pane. If your Mouse preference pane looks like this, your right click should be the equivalent of a control-left-click on a Mac.

Command-Left/Right Arrow not working

Very strange behavior I'm seeing today.
My left/right arrow keys work. Even Option-Left/Right works correctly.
But, Command-Left-Right do not work. No movement at all.
Curiously, Shift-Command-Left/Right work fine.
I've not changed any keyboard shortcuts recently. I've checked the keyboard shortcuts that are currently defined. Nothing that would indicate a problem, but clearly there is.

Just found a solution that worked for me here. Basically, it seems to be a bug with the Dock. If you type "killall Dock" (the command is case-sensitive) into the command line in Terminal, it restarts the Dock. After that the arrows seem to work normally again.
