Suddenly have issues with Magic Mouse
I have used the Magic Mouse almost since it was first put on the market and really love it.
I upgraded to Mavericks when it first came out, too. I am currently running Mavericks 10.9.2
However, this morning I turned on my iMac and all of a sudden, when I am in Safari and swipe, it catches and freezes Safari to the point that I have to quit Safari altogether and then log back in. It scrolls up and down in Safari just fine, it's just when I attempt to go right or left. Also, when I open Calendar, the Magic Mouse won't do any scrolling at all. I can click on something within the window and it works ok, but attempting to scroll the calendar up and down to a different month/week and nothing happens. I am also running the same version of Mavericks on my MBP and the mouse of it works just fine.
Anyone out there experiencing this also?
Anyone out there have some helpful tips for Dummies?
Thanks.
Sometimes I assume things...bad idea :)

Does apple have an issue with magic mouse and adobe
does Apple have a problem with magic mouse and Adobe Photoshop/Indesign/Illustrator, scrolling uncontrollable, pages moving of their own accord etc.
If so, whats the cure and why does Apple not admit to it?
Badgolfer4it's rare that a mouse would perform in a different manner between different applications
I would troubleshoot with other apps to see if it was just adobe apps
and then I would troubleshoot by trying a different mouse
could be the mouse was defect -
Types of batteries compatible with Magic Mouse
Hi There,
Recently I bought a magic mouse, and till now it has been amazing. But as all users, I too face serious battery drain issue with magic mouse, but I think its worth its usage .
So I thought to switch to couple of rechargeable batteries for my magic mouse after reading some threads here. But now I have got a doubt. I read the magic mouse user guide and it says :
+You can use alkaline, lithium, or rechargeable AA batteries in your mouse.+
So My doubt is that whether I can use rechargeable Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries or not? Also what all kind of batteries are compatible with magic mouse?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you have Nickel Cadmium(Ni-Cd) batteries they will work just fine, however if you shopping for rechargeable's the NiMH batteries are better and last longer.

Also note that the Apple Store sells a Battery Charger with 6 NiMH batteries.

Been using LR since 2004. My raws are all of sudden jumping around in Develop module. Image does not stay, it goes forward and backwards randomly, even with magic mouse off. Can't edit. Using MacPro, currently everything. Canon 5dmk3 raws
This sounds like a hardware issue. I haven't seen this particular problem reported before.

Bluetooth drops connection with Magic Mouse
Quite often the connection between my Macbook Pro (15" retina) drops connection with my Magic Mouse. The drop varies from heavily lagging to full disconnect. Sometimes it works just reconnecting, but other times it won't connect at all.
Lately I've discovered that disabling WiFi makes the Magic Mouse connect immediately. Given that many people seem to have issues with WiFi when bluetooth is enabled, I suspects that there are some issues with to coherence of the two technologies. I know that both of the tech uses the same bandwith (2,4 GHz), just separated by what channel they use.
My issue started after installing Yosemite, first beta and now final release, so it looks to me as a software issue.
Anyone else with the same problem that might have more insight or maybe even a respons from Apple support?Make the device a favorite.

Problem with magic mouse gestures in safari
iMac 27", mid 2011
16 GB 1333Mhz
Using OS X Yosemite, Safari, Magic Mouse
one day no problem at all, the next day, without any new installations:
Whenever I use the swipe gesture to go back to a previous page,
It does not work and I cannot scroll on this page anymore.
Shutting down Safari and restarting it works.
I read a lot about this, it seems to be a known problem.
I did not use terminal to use direct command for remedy, but tried everything else I read:
power own the mouse, taking battery out, switching off BT for Mouse, several restarts of the iMac etc.
Nothing helps.
As I am so used to the gestures for a very long tome, it takes only seconds, before I swipe back-- and that´s it!
I have to restart Safari.
I would be very thankful for your help!
best,
FredHi seventy one,
many thanks for your efforts to help me!!
but I just solved my problem doing the exact same as someone else did:

Re: Magic Mouse Scrolling Issuein response to Linc Davis
Hi Linc
Thank you for the extremely detailed response.
I think I have the issue solved for the minute at least.
I not only disconnected every cable from the Mac, as I had previously done, I also disconnected every cable from my peripherals and powered down every peripheral as well, then re-wired my set-up. This seems to have solved the issue. Not sure of the technical reason that this would have fixed my problem, but it seems to have fixed the issue for the moment anyway.
So, my problem is solved too!!
Many thanks -
Problem with Magic Mouse pairing
Hello Apple Support Communities
I have used a Magic Mouse for some time, maybe now an year. But I started having this problem today.
When the Magic Mouse did not connect with my MBP, I removed the mouse from the Bluetooth and tried to put it back.
But the Bluetooth Setup Assistant is saying that the pairing did not work, and asked for a passcode or a different pairing method.
Here's a screenshot:
Also, I tried using the System Prefrences and click on mouse to set up my Magic Mouse, but it said the same thing; pairing failed.
Here's a screenshot:
Is there any solutions to this problem? I hope that you can get me an answer fast, as I use Magic Mouse a lot with my MBP.Not knowing what machine you have, it's age, and its current OS X and version doesn't help people help you. Please could you fill in your profile.
Do you have, or know someone who has a wired mouse? -

Strange issue with USB mouse and USB headset.
Good day everyone.
I was experiencing a rather strange issue with my mouse and headset(both USB).
I am using KDE and ALSA, if that matters.
They are working just fine, but sometimes, when I try to lower\raise volume, my mouse derps out. I can move it around, but I can't click on anything(sometimes though, I can click on stuff in window that was active before and sometimes only on KDE panel) until I re-plug my headset. Then, nothing can use my headset until I reboot.
Anybody ever had that problem?I've had similar problems for some time now. Unfortunately, I don't know what the issue is either, but perhaps we can come up with some setup similarities and narrow it down. I have similar trouble with just alsa or with pulseaudio, so that's not it. It is unrelated to the DE, as it happened for me in both gnome 2 and xfce 4. It is not related to the machine either, as the same quirks occur in other machines with the same headset. I have had inconclusive results with downgrading to kernel26-lts, the ancient kernel. I thought at some point it messed up and I was sure the older kernel didnt help, but after trying recently-ish, I had no trouble for days -- until I found that I didn't have trouble on the main kernel either. ... then a few days later, it showed up again. Very irritating!
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=122475
Does my old thread sound like your issue somewhat?
Essentially, at times, if the headset (wireless) is changed into a different power state (unplugged/plugged) or the mic state is toggled (mute/unmute), things that could be clicked on normally cant unless theyre in the window already focused -- mostly.
What headset are you using? 32 or 64 bit arch? Have you tried downgrading to kernel26-lts? -

I am using Firefox 12.0. I did not have issue with hotmail, but I am facing problem this week after firefox upgrade. After entering login the page freeze. I am not able to continue.
I reviewed the thread. I am not using Foxit.
I reviewed hot mail forum. They suggest firefox upgrade causes this issue.
I tried after clearing my browser's cache and cookies. The situation remain same. Any idea?
What is the workaround?Firefox 3.6 needs the Java Second Generation Plugin which comes with newer versions than 1.6.0_03 - update Java, the latest version is 1.6.0_22
