New Magic mouse just paired with Macbook pro but will not scroll

I have a MacBook Pro that has never been bluetooth paired with anything. The magic mouse and computer pair and it shows everything is ok, but the mouse doesn't scroll. If I physically move it it will click, but otherwise it does not respond. I updated all of the software and have OS 10.6.8. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Look in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse    Check scrolling.

    my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

    Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
    If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning.  Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.

  • Just bought a macbook pro 2008, will not pick up wifi connection that my old lap top has very quickly. whats wrong?

    I just bought a used macbook pro, turned it on and it will not pick up wifi connection n my house that my old lap top has done very fast and easy wifi connection. What do i have to do to log on to internet with wifi with my macbook pro?

    That could be the reason they were selling the old macBook Pro.  Does the network utility even see any WIFI networks?  If it doesn't, and you know they exist, something with the WIFI might have failed.  Can you connect using the wired ethernet port?
    You might have to take it to an Apple store or an AASP for a checkup.

  • TS2662 My keyboard will pair with my iPad but will not pair with my MAC...any ideas?

    I have had my iMac for 2 years now...I have never had a problem pairing my keyboard.  The batteries died in my keyboard so I changed them and now I can't get the keyboard to pair to my iMac.  I know the keyboard is fine and the batteries work because the keyboard will pair to my ipad.  Any reason my iMac is having trouble pairing with the keyboard?  Thanks!

    If it is paired currently, you need to unpair it if you want to pair it back with the iMac.
    As I said, it can only be paired to one device. If you want to use it with another, you need to unpair it first and then pair it with the other one.
    And, if you need to sign in with your password to your Mac, you will need to borrow any USB keyboard to do so and to pair it; once it's recognized, you can use the wireless keyboard again.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

    Hello H:
    These forums are not chat rooms, but since you used my name I will address your post.
    Do you work for Apple?
    No. These are user-to-user forums. The forums are moderated by Apple, but do not represent official responses from the company. If an Apple employee would post here (very rare), they would have either a purple apple (forum host) or a silver apple (employee) under their name.
    Every post about this issue, going back to early 2009 you have made the SAME suggestion. It doesn't work.
    That statement is inaccurate. If you read the posts carefully, I do not cut/paste the same suggestion to address issues. However, trying to address issues without hands-on access to devices necessarily requires one to suggest solutions that have worked in similar situations. Bluetooth issues are not rocket science and there are only a few things that are available to resolve problems. If you look at the little blue bars next to my name that represent user +"thank yous+" for suggestions that worked, I must have made a few suggestions that did work.
    Like everyone else that tries to help others here, we are unpaid volunteers. If you have better sources to obtain information, I certainly recommend that you seek those sources out. If you have issues with Apple, take them up with the company. Ranting here about your particular problem is not helping anyone.

  • Can the Magic Mouse be paired with the original iPad?

    Can the Magic Mouse be paired with the original iPad ?

    No, neither the first nor the second gen iPad supports a mouse - there is no cursor for a mouse to control, all you have on the iPad is an insertion point when entering or amending text

  • After recent update to my macbook pro itunes will not open, it just bounces when I click on it

    fter recent update to my macbook pro itunes will not open, it just bounces when I click on it

    Means they are going to mess up your iPhoto Library pictures database  so it's unreadable by older versions of iPhoto on older OS X operating systems.
    You have the choice to right click on the iPhoto Lbrary and inside is a folder called Origianls, use the Finder to Duplicate this folder, then move the OriginalsCopy out of the iPhoto Library folder and save it elsewhere.
    I dont' think Apple will every intentionally touch the originals, however it's possible they could.

    Hi mzantop,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    So you get no video or startup chimes but do hear clicks from your MacBook Pro.

  • My IPOD and Macbook Pro both will not connect to the Itunes store through Itunes says no internet connection, but I can connect through safari and I have a internet connection

    As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
    I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
    I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

  • My 2008 MacBook Pro (A1260) will not startup

    Greetings!
    I was given a 2008 MacBook Pro that will not startup. I press the power button and it trys to start for like 5 seconds and goes no further. The battery is fully charged and the powercord is pluged in. I know that Apple has it listed a "Vintage", but I'd like to get it working. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    David

    David,
    were you also given two grey installation DVDs which originally came in the box with your MacBook Pro, called “Mac OS X Install Disc 1” and “Mac OS X Install Disc 2”? You’ll need those discs to be able to further diagnose the current problem. If those discs weren’t given to you, you can purchase a replacement pair from Apple.

    I have a MacBook Pro that will not boot up. The apple symbol is there and the spinning wheel keeps spinning. Any idea how I can fix this?

    Reinstall OS X.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    OR
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

    You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you.  But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.
