Magic mouse will not scroll horizontally

We need far more information.
Has it previously scrolled horizontally? Is the fault restricted to certain browsers or program facilities? What machine are you using it on? Has this problem appeared following an OS upgrade. -

mouse works... is recognized but the preference pane
has not swipe selection and i cannot turn off bluetoothTo resolve this issue try the following:
from the upper left corner of your screen click:
1. / system preferences / bluetooth
2. Locate your mouse under the devices panel
3. Remove your mouse
Click on it so it is highlighted in blue
Click in the blue "x" or you can click delete after you have selected your mouse.
4. Reconnect your mouse (re "pair" ) your mouse
This should resolve the scrolling issue if it occurred after the 10.10.1 update. -

Satellite L655-S5060 mouse will not scroll
Just had to have a new hard drive installed and now the touchpad mouse will not scroll. I don't see anything in the mouse properties to "turn it on". I have tried updating driver and it says it is up to date. Windows 7. Thanks in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.Were these the drivers you tried updating?

You could also try going into the "Advanced" tab of "Mouse Properties," clicking "Advanced feature settings..." and then restoring defaults. I agree that there doesn't seem to be anything about the normal scrolling, but maybe something is interfering.
If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, you can try contacting support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

TS2662 trackpad and mouse will not scroll
On 27" iMac using OS 10.7.4, trackpad and mouse will not scroll or swipe, can point with both, click only with mouse, scroll only with keys on keyboard. What have I done now??? They are all paired with good batteries. Have checked in settings and they are enabled to scroll.
In Lion the scrolling is natural i.e. reversed to the way that computers typically scroll. Think of the scroll as grabbing the page an moving it either up or down vs moving the scroll bar down up or down. Also, the scroll bars are "hidden" by default and only show up when you are scrolling.
Are you using and Apple mouse? If you go to the system preferences and then to the "mouse" section there are options to change the natural scrolling. And if you go to System Preferences and then to "general" you can set it to show or hide the scroll bars.
If this is not what the issue is let me know and let me know what mouse you are using because there is something else that it could be. -

I have an iMAC from about 2007. The mouse will not scroll down. Can this be fixed?
You have to remember, where the scroll ball is, there is a small gap which picks up dust and fluff. That detritus gets everywhere and in your case affects the downward scroll.
Adding just a touch Linc Davis's suggestion, after you have vigorously rubbed the scroll ball on the pad, tap it on a hard surface from time to time. Sometimes you will see small amounts of fluff appear. You should also see dirty marks on the pad. -
My Mac OS X 10.4.8 wireless mouse will not scroll UP. It's been cleaned and works well in all other aspects. Is it just time to get another one, or can this problem be fixed?
I used iPad forum because the only other choice was iMac..... there is no forum for the Mouse. Suggestions as to where I can go?
Thanks

I restored my ipod touch however the apps will not sync. I tried to re-download but I changed my apple id as my old id is no longer a valid email address. Any ideas out there please?
It might be logical to someone, but not to me. I agree it's a pain.
How did you change your Apple ID? Creating a new one is not what you want to do, but if you changed the ID associated with your purchases then that might have worked. You would need to sign in with the Apple ID on both your iPod Touch as well as in iTunes. I'm not sure how you changed it but clearly they need to match.
If it's just your password that is not getting recognized reset it here: http://iforgot.apple.com/
It will send an email confirmation to the email address associated with that Apple ID. The email address you elect to use might not look anything like your Apple ID. If you don't appear to get an email check your spam filter. -
HT1338 updated OS to Maverick, now magic mouse will not scroll. what happened?
I updated my OS to Mavericks latest, and now the magic mouse does not scroll...what happened? works through bluetooth, so I can move the cursor, but it will not scroll.
Can someone help me with this?
ThanksHi davidgraham193,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your Magic Mouse is not scrolling, first go to the Mouse section of System Preferences and try toggling the "Scroll direction: natural" checkbox to see if it has an effect.
Scroll direction: natural:
Select this option to move the contents of a window the same direction as your fingers.

Apple mouse will not scroll down
I have a wirelss mouse (not a Magic Mouse). The poor creature will not scroll down, infact when using the track button to scroll down, it will go up. Any suggestions as to how this can be cured. When I had Apple Care (it is now expired) of the experts suggested rubbing a piece of paper vigoursly over the button a few dozen times - however the mouse now seems to have developed a resistence to this treatment.
You're in the Time Capsule forum...no one here focusing on mice. However...maybe this can help:
