Track ball mouse buttons and Logitech driver not fully working on Core Duo

I have a Ligitech cordless optical TrackMan ball bluetooth ball mouse which works for me. Unfortunately, I could not map the buttons properly (the back button kept doing an F9 function rather than 'back' in Safari). The driver in System Preferences produced a warning message something like 'this won't work on a core duo imac'. Logitech did not seem to have any updates. I hunted around some alternative software and just wanted to recommend www.usboverdrive.com to anyone who has the same problem. All buttons can be easily mapped - you press the button to identify which one it is and then can change what it does.

Funny, not on their site!
But! You can get it here:

Again, I don't have a trackball, but give this a shot. It is the "Control Center" software, and from their site the trackball is the save version (1.62) as the mouse/keyboard.
Good luck!

  • Why does my magic mouse button and scroll surface not work?

    My MacBook Air 13" ran out of power before I could connect it to a power source. After I was able to power it on again, the Magic Mouse button and scrolling surface could no longer work even though I could still use the optical pointer below to move the cursor. How can I restore the button and scrolling surface. Have tried powering down and up both the MacBook Air as well as the mouse. Also tried unpairing and re-pairing both but nothing works so far. Thanks.

    Have you tried to edit your settings in Apple menu -> System preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse?

  • Ibm x60s and Win 7 - third mouse button plus nipple will not scroll in FF4

    I have an IBM x60s notebook with Win 7. On previous versions of Firefox I believe I could scroll down a web page successfully using the laptop's centre mouse button and the red nipple mouse.
    This seemed to have stopped working in Firefox 4 (main release) which I downloaded yesterday. The IBM mouse's scrolling action is enabled and works on other programs, so I suspect a possible bug.
    Your comments are appreciated :)

    Some of you might not be satisfied by the OSX zoom behavior, but rather would like Ctrl+"mousewheel up/down" to increase/decrease content size per app. Like in Windows.
    To be clear let's differ between the two features: OSX's whole screen (OS UI aswell) zoom and increase/decrease content size.
    Solution:
    This is the solution I came up with, which allows you to use Ctrl+"mousewheel up/down" to trigger the latter feature, the content zoom.
    1) Make sure you aren't using Ctrl as a zoom key modifier in Settings -> Accessibility -> Zoom (I use Cmd instead)
    2) Download and install BetterTouchTools (BTT) it's free and updated regularly. http://www.boastr.net
    3) Open BTT Preferences, switch to advanced mode and chose "Magic Mouse"
    Q: "But I don't have a magic mouse" A: "Doesn't matter, Normal Mice pane won't recognize mouse wheel scroll, so follow this guide".
    4) Press "Add new gesture", select Magic Mouse Gesture "Scroll Down (modifier key needed)"
    5) Set Custom Keyboard Shortcut to "Cmd + +" (don't be confused here, press Cmd and the button on your keyboard with a "+" (plus) sign)
    6) Do the same with "Scroll Up (modifier key needed)", this time of course add Custom Keyboard Shortcut to "Cmd + -"
    You might have to do this per specific app to counter some unforeseen consequences using applications that already try to counter this (like MS programs, virtual machines and the like.)

  • Lenovo Thinkpad Compact USB Keyboard with Trackpoint: Middle mouse button and scrolling

    I got this keyboard (KU-1255).
    Unfortunately, it generates bogus mouse button events if I click the middle mouse button and use the trackpoint:
    With "thinkpad scrolling mode" disabled, the middle mouse button is released as soon as I move the trackpoint while still pressing the button!
    Expected behaviour: The middle mouse button is pressed, the event created. Moving the trackpoint moves the cursor normally. Releasing the middle button creates a corresponding event.
    With "thinkpad scrolling mode" enabled, the button is registered as pressed, then scrolling occurs as I move the trackpoint and the button is released if I release it.
    Expected behaviour: No middle mouse button event is registered if I move the trackpoint. Pressing and releasing the middle mouse button is only registered if I click the button without moving the trackpoint.
    When will there be a firmware update available for the keyboard, like for the SK-8855?
    Since I am also using Linux, I would be really interested in fixing this in the firmware, not only getting a new Windows driver.

    Help please.

  • My track pad mouse button quit working

    The mouse button on my MacBook has quit working, the track pad itself works fine, moves the mouse pointer, etc, but nothing can be selected with the button. Same problem in Windows booted through boot camp. I noticed the problem after running the boot camp support program, this may have "broken" the operation of the select button, but I don't know how to back out those driver updates.

    This has been happening to me too. I can hit Escape and things go back to normal.

  • Mouse buttons and keyboard randomly stop responding on secondary display

    Hey,
    I'm facing this weird problem after a recent upgrade to Snow Leopard:
    In about half of the cases I'm switching to application windows on a secondary/external display the mouse buttons and Macbook keyboard are unresponsive. I have to keep clicking/pressing for some time or have to switch between applications to get them working, until they'll fail again after some time.
    I tested it with two different external displays with VGA and DVI adapter, different screen resolutions, I tested the mouse and mouse software, both keyboard and mouse work fine with the same applications moved to the primary laptop screen, trackpad works fine too.
    This occurred after the upgrade to Snow Leopard on a 2008 unibody Macbook. Updates to 10.6.2 didn't solve the problem.
    I'd be happy if anyone could help me with this issue.
    Thanks

    You do not provide the full model number but if it is an AMD processor you are seeing the start of video issues that plague that series. The freeze is caused by bad video memory which is a part of the video card in turn part of the motherboard. I have been getting a high percentage of people who do not respond back to posts so I am not going to write everything about your issue; it could be a book. I am happy to help further if you have any questions. There are some repair options but at the end of the day, you might want to consider a new laptop.

  • How can I disable right/left mouse buttons and scroll wheel in PDF?

    Hi all,
    I want the user to have to click on "forward" and "back" buttons that I've created in the PDF, in order to move around in it. Is there any way to disable the mouse buttons and scroll wheel from allowing users to go back and forth?
    Also, a separate question: I want the user to click on embedded images and receive either a pop-up comment, or be re-directed to another page in the PDF. Is there any way to set this up?
    Thanks for your time!

    You can achieve what you want in Question 1, just not via scripting.  You would need to create a plug-in in C/C++ that would be installed on the client machine.  Other than that option, try67 is correct - there is no way to achieve this from the document-level.

  • Mouse Buttons and Modifiers

    Why is there so much confusion about mouse buttons and modifiers?
    Looking over past postings there seems to be differing opinions about
    how the mouse buttons work with modifiers in mouse events.
    My specific question is how to use ALT as a modifier.
    Using InputEvent.BUTTON*_MASK, *=1,2,3, you can determine which button
    is pressed, and this works fine as well with SHIFT and CNTRL modifiers.
    However, when ALT is held down both buttons 1 and 3 also set the
    BUTTON2_MASK. I suppose that this is a mechanism designed to support
    three button functions with two button mice. Holding down ALT lets you
    produce a middle button signal. Great - if you want it!
    Is it possible to disable this functionality so that ALT and the three
    buttons can be used independently with no ambiguity?

    There is the MouseEvent.isAltDown() that returns a boolean value, so do:
    public void MousePressed(MouseEvent me)
      boolean mClick=(!me.isAltDown && ((me.getModifiers() & me.BUTTON2_MASK)!=0)))   //middle mouse button
      boolean altClick=(me.isAltDown && !((me.getModifiers() & me.BUTTON2_MASK)!=0)))  //alt left or right click
    }Note: this code is untested, but it should work because I've done Alt-click and isAltDown worked for left and right click.

  • All button and touch pad not working except power button

    I face the problems that all button and touch pad not working after power on or wake up from sleep state except power button. And i have make the system sleep and wake again so that the mac book air can working as normal( mouse can move and button got response).

    Sometimes electrical components needs to have all power sources removed and reintroduced to work properly.  Try performing a hard reset first, if it doesn't work then we'll move to the next step.
    To Perform A Hard Reset
    Shut down the computer by going to the Start menu and selecting shut down. (If you have no display, hold the power button down for  5 seconds); (if the computer doesn't power on, move to the next step)
    Disconnect the AC Adapter from the notebook.
    Remove the battery from the bottom of the notebook.  There will be a switch/button to eject the battery.
    Wait at least 1 minute with all power sources disconnected.
    Re-insert the battery and reconnect the AC Adapter and then attempt to power on the notebook.

  • I uploaded music in the match and when i want to play it in my phone, some of the tracks appear blocked (blanked) and a few not. When I'm connected through a wi fi spot, i can play all of the tracks. Help!

    Hi,
    You need a wifi connection to stream. Previously played tracks appear in a temporary cache which allows them to be played again when yOu have no wifi..
    You can either predownload selected tracks or use cellular data.

  • I upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues

    i upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues?

    From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
    Take the following steps:
    1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
    2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
    The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
    I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
    Hope this helps!

  • Out of the blue my iPhone 4S home button and notification centre has stopped working.

    Out of the blue my iPhone 4S home button and notification centre has stopped working. I used the phone and switched it off. The next time I turned it on they weren’t working. The phone wasn’t dropped on banged around. – Any Ideas, Anyone??

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.  Have ALL of these steps been tried?
    If you've been through ALL these steps and still have problems, you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.
