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.
Vineet

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?

Wired Mighty Mouse and right click on my intel imac

Hi,
This is a stumper!
1) Wired mighty mouse stated to lose right click functions. Control click
works fine but right click with menus is gone.
2) Tried steer mouse. No change
3) Deleted hidmouse user prefs. No change.
4) System Archive and install. no change
5) Clean install and Account reinstall (by hand). no change
6) Nuke and Pave. no change
7.) Pram reset. no change
8) Mouse works on other Macbook- not a mouse problem.
9) Second Mighty mouse exhibits the same problem.
10) logging into second account. no change
11) Other 2 button mice work!
12) I like my mighty mouse, but I need right click!!
13) Tried Apple Dev hid driver debug . no change
14) Tried a bunch of other things but this has me stumped....
(and I'm Apple Certified) any other suggeestions or software
I can try? Context plugins are ok...but I'm not sure if there are other prefes to deleted? Also, a totally fresh install should have fixed this...what's going on here? I need to know.

What is strange about my mighty mouse which also experiences similar issues is that you have to be careful where you are pushing it. My right tbutton is set as a control click but if I don't push it in the very upper right hand of the mighty mouse it behaves as a single click. The left hand button, as such, does not seem to be as sensitive to placement as the right hand one. For a long while I could not get it to work at all, until I figured out where I actually had to strike it.
I had never used a mighty mouse until I purchased a new iMac a couple of weeks ago and just figured it was "operator difficulty" as I am far more used to a trackball than a mouse. I may still go back to one if I can't get used to this mouse. I think you really have to put your whole hand over the mouse to make it function properly and I tend not to do that.
Does this help you with your issue? I am not sure, maybe there is some sort of difference in the way the mighty mouse works with new hardware?
Good Luck! Wish I had more to offer other than trying carefully to position your handin difernt places and see if that helps.

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.

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?

Apple Mouse (mighty mouse?) Right clicks too often

I have the Apple Mouse (former Mighty Mouse) and I have right click turned on. The mouse is constantly doing "right click" when I click left. I look and my finger is well to the left of the little scroll wheel.
I thought "Oh maybe it's sensing the whole panel and I'm pushing in a funny angle" but no, I paid attention and I was not.
I'm just wondering, is this a common problem with this mouse? Or is my particular mouse defective?

I have a 2011 iMac and the batteries in my Magic Mouse need changing every couple of months. In contrast, my wireless keyboard only needs a battery change every 10 months or so. I bought an Apple battery charger and keep the spare set of batteries always charged.
I think that is the way it is - mouse uses more juice than keyboard (or gets more use so runs down faster). However, if it gets worse than 2 weeks life, it may be time to invest in a new mouse.

Mighty Mouse lost right click and track ball 'click' in upgrade to Lion

I upgraded my MBP to Lion at the community's recommendation and things have been going pretty well except for one major annoyance. My mighty mouse, that worked perfectly on Snow Leopard no longer is able to right click or trackball 'click'. If I try to do right click or use the trackball click all I get is a normal click. I have no idea what to do, I've tried un-pairing the mouse and resetting it up, but the mouse seems to keep its unique identifier so when I re-pair it the computer recognizes it as a mouse it has seen before. Though I'm not sure if being able to change this would matter or help. Thanks for any input!

Hey,
I just talked to German Apple telephone support. They fixed the problem for me! With fresh installs of 10.7.5 the problem is that two files are missing that are needed for the mouse. In my case I could get them from another computer I own that ran Lion and did have the files. To get to the files you need do this:
Go to
/System/Library/LoginPlugins/BezelServices.loginPlugin
control-click that file and choose "show contents"
now in the finder window navigate to
Contents/PlugIns/
In this folder should be two files named
AppleBluetoothHIDMouse.plist
and
AppleHIDMouse.plist
If you don't find these files, you need to get them and put them in.

Mighty Mouse not right clicking

I have noticed that my mighty mouse will NOT work on the right click function, particularly when I am on the desktop. If I am working in mail for instance, it WILL however allow me to right click .
Are there settings or preferences that may have gotten corrupt?
When on the desktop, if i rightclick, i get s slight pause, then the desktop re writes itself, yet no right click menu will appear.

It seems like something is up with your Mac OS X.
Did you try left click and ctrl before you bought your mighty mouse? Or did you always have your might mouse?
Please try the following...go to applications>utilities>disk utility
select your volume and fix permissions, then on the right click on check disk. This will take a couple minutes.
Let me know if you get any errors. Those red type things
Or did you do this already?

Thinkpad S1: Can't left-click some web elements with trackpad/mouse but can click with touchscreen?

Hey so this is a strangely specific problem.
For some websites I cannot click some drop-down menus with my cordless mouse, the trackpad, or trackpoint buttons, but am able to when I press on the touchscreen. Same with some online games I used to play like: http://shape.method.ac/
In the website above, I can't click and drag where it says to "Drag to get started' (For anyone else maybe experiencing the same problem) with my mouse, but pressing and dragging on the touchscreen works just fine.
Stylus doesn't work either.
Other items are still clickable.
I can open and close windows just fine, most links work, but it's these graphic elements that I can't interface with. I can't tell if this is an OS problem, browser, or something like HTML5 causing it.
It happens consistently though. Any help would be most appreciated.

I'm having this exact same problem but it doesn't seem related to sleeping. It just happened randomly, and restarting hasn't helped.

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.

Bluetooth Mighty mouse wont right click

I have set the right mouse button to 'secondary' in the preferences, however i still have to press ctrl to access the right mouse menu.
How can I correct this?

Hello,
In addition to checking the setting as already proposed, do check how you are using the mouse.
The Mighty Mouse uses sensors to detect which button you mean to press.
There is actually only one button. So, based on where your fingers are, it will determine which button you meant to press.
As long as you have a finger over the left button location, anything you press will be a left-button / primary button click.
So, as a test, raise your left finger about an inch above the surface before you right-click. See if that makes a difference.
The mouse could just be reading your left finger and assuming you mean a left click.
I have to deliberately remove my left finger from the mouse anytime I want to right-click. Otherwise I always get a left-click.
I hope this helps.

Right Click in Windows Vista (Bootcamp)

the two finger tapping works GREAT in OSX, but can I do something similar while running vista?
The two finger gesturing seems to work nice for scrolling, what about the right click?
Or Is there atleast a 3rd party program that will allow me to map the right click button to something on the keyboard? I only need it for certain applications that require right click functions.
Also im aware a external mouse is a very good option, but i'm mostly concerned about portability and I dont like the idea of bringing a mouse with me.

I just found the double finger + Mouse Click function works as right click
however id still like to know if anyone knows of a good right click mapping application (for Windows)
