Upgraded to Maverick. Can't use my mighty mouse

Using an IMac desktop. Upgraded to Maverick. Can't use my mighty mouse anymore. Bought a trackpad, hate it. It is so touchy....constantly opening any window I scroll over. Any suggestions on another mouse that is compatible?

See these for cleaning the mouse:

I currently use Snow Leopard and Microsoft Word, Excel and Entourage o my Mac. If I upgrade to Mavericks, can I still use those applications?

If the Microsoft Office is 2004 then no.

Note I would recommend a minimum of 4GB RAM.
You need to check all you software and hardware including any peripherlas you use, printers etc that they are compatible with Mavericks.
Any software that is PPC and uses Rossetta will not work with any OS X verson later than 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
If you decide to upgrade have a tested backup of your current system in case of problems and you could return the computer to its previous configuration.

Since upgrading to mavericks I cannot scroll with my mouse in mail - I have to use the keyboard arrows

I just purchased a used wireless Mighty Mouse. Do I need to have Blue Tooth installed on my machine to use it?

Hey
So I just purchased a used wireless Mighty Mouse at a Goodwill very inexpensively on the 50/50 chance it would work. Right out of the gate I figured I might need to have Blue Tooth installed on my machine to use it, is this the case?
I have a Mac Pro Tower running 10.6.7, but I didn't opt for the Blue Tooth a few years ago when I purchased it. I knew I should've!
Thanks.

Well I purchased the Mac Pro in 2009 I believe. It could've been late 2008, but I can't quite remember. When I ordered it from the Apple store online I customized it. I had the amount of Ram I wanted put into it, and had two hard drives installed. While doing all of my customizations I could've opted to have the Blue Tooth card installed into the computer but for some reason I didn't see myself using it. I did get the generic wired mouse that came with the computer.

I have boot camp in my mac to use autocad. Can I use the magic mouse on my windows side and use it to work in autocad?

I have boot camp in my MacBook Pro to use AutoCAD. Can I use the magic mouse on my Windows side and use it to work in AutoCAD?

Yes and no. The gestures wont work so it just becomes a regular scroll-wheel mouse.

Sorry, but no. Because the iPad does not have a cursor for you to use the mouse with.

I suggest that you request this feature, as I have, at Apple's feature request site. Maybe if enough of us request this it will come in a future iOS release.

I have 1 gb of memory with10.6.8 and want to upgrade my OS can i use an external hard drive to solve this

I am running 10.6.8 and have 1gb of memory and want to upgrade can i use an external hard drive to solve this problem

You are confusing RAM (Ramdom Access Memory) with hard drive storage space.
You need to install more RAM, not an additonal hard drive.
You can purchase an external hard drive, if you like, if you want to install the new OS X upgrade onto an external drive. If you want to run the new OS X Mavericks from the external drive, depending on your Mac model, you need a fast protocol external hard drive.
Either a USB 3.0, Thunderbolt or FireWire 800 connected external hard drive.
To start, if you are running your Mac on 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, this is the barest of RAM to run Snow Leopard.
Without knowing any of your Macs specs, you realistically should be running your current OS with, at least 4 GBs of RAM.
Newer versions of OS X need, at least, 4 GBs of RAM or more as these newer OS X versions use more Mac computer resources than earlier OS X versions.
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed in your Mac?
Be aware, if your Mac is running any older software that used to run under older PowerPC model Macs, those software apps will no longer will work under newer versions of OS X.
The emulation software that allows older PowerPC apps to run under OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, called, Rosetta, no longer exists in newer versions of OS X and is long dead.
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
Good Luck!

I upgraded to Mavericks; Can't access Premiere Pro CC

I suppose, in the middle of a project, I got a little excited when Apple released Mavericks and upgraded straight away without prior thought to the possible interuptions of workflow.
I can't open Premiere since I've upgraded to Mavericks. I downloaded the 7.0.1 update today, I thought this would rectify my situtation - unfortunetly not. After reading other posts I uninstalled the application and reinstalled - did nothing. It's still the same issue. It worked perfectly before I upgraded, I'm in the middle of a project.
I really need to have it finished by Thursday.
I've tried accessing the program via other applications. I can't access After Effects or Prelude either. I don't use these as much as Premiere but, as it stands.. I'm paying for an almost void set of tools. I know it's a bug and it'll get fixed in time.. but this is urgent!
Everytime I open the application, I get the splash page and then an error report.
I've seen other people post something similar to this, I don't know if this is actually help to anybody but this is how the error message begins: Adobe Premiere Pro CC [10296]
Please, somebody.. help?

I don't know if this will help anyone but I have finally got it running. Adobe support was only sending me another tiny step to try every 36 hours or so -- I've lost a whole week trying to sort this out.
I had reinstalled the application many times by using the Uninstall application in the Premiere Pro folder in Applications (and then installing it through Creative Cloud in the menu bar). This gave an option to remove preferences, so I believed it was doing a clean install.
Adobe's advice was to run disk preferences and repair permissions, and enable the root user and uninstall/reinstall the programme. None of that helped. But while waiting to hear back from Adobe I decided to scour my /Library and ~/Library folder for any trace of Premiere Pro. I removed a number of old files related to older versions of Premiere and that seems to have solved the problem.
I don't know exactly which step solved the issue, or even whether it will keep running, but I have set my region back to the UK and I seem able to run the software again.

After upgrading to Mavericks, can't install programs from discs

I am unable to install photoshop elements 12. I've upgraded to Mavericks, and this is the first disc I've tried to install. The dvd drive does read regular dvds, but spins, then ejects the install disc. I've reset the PRAM and puffed air in the drive slot. The disc is just out of the box, no scratches. I tried to install Premier Elements too, but same spin, then ejection. Do I need to change some setting somewhere or has the dvd drive developed an issue.

You can start by doing some basic resets such as a iMac SMC and PRAM reset, you may need to do the SMC reset 2-3 times. Also you can restart in Safe Mode to clear some caches. If you continue to have problems post back and there are other things to try such as cleaning the SuperDrive or using an external DVD drive.

Upgraded to Mavericks, can't find files on time machine

I have an external hard drive where I backup my Macbook Pro. I recently upgraded to Mavericks and now I can't find old files on time machine. I am looking for a file around a certain date, but no matter what date I look at in time machine - the files and data seem to be the same. I hope someone has a solution to my problem!

Hi Miax1,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are looking for a specific file in your Time Machine backup. It sounds like you are familiar with the interface but just cannot find the file. Just to make sure you are searching in the right area, I suggest reviewing the Restoring data from Time Machine backups section from the following article. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
Restoring specific files or folders
Choose Enter Time Machine from the Time Machine menu. The restore interface appears. You can literally see your windows as they appeared "back in time."
You can use the timeline on the right side of the window to reach a certain point back in time. The timeline shows the times of all backups on your backup drive. If you don’t know exactly when you deleted or changed a file, you can use the back arrow to let Time Machine automatically travel through time to show you when that folder last changed.
Note: Dates in pink indicate the data resides on your Time Machine backup device. Dates in white indicate the data resides on your Mac. In OS X Lion v10.7 and later, portable Macs include local snapshots.
You can also perform a Spotlight search from the Finder. Simply enter a search term in the Spotlight search field, and use the back arrow to have Time Machine search through your backups to find what you are looking for.
Before you restore a file, you can also use Quick Look to preview a file to make sure its the one you want. Highlight the file and press the Space Bar to bring up a quick look.
To restore, select the file/folder and click the "Restore" button. The file will automatically be copied to the desktop or appropriate folder. If the file you are restoring has another file in the same location with the same name, you will be prompted to choose which file to keep or keep both.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

Middle-clicking woes in X11 Apps using a mighty mouse

Hi,
This has been a frustrating issue ever since I got my new work computer (it's been over a year and a half) and I've just suffered through it. While middle-clicking a half dozen times today until it worked, I finally decided to ask to see if there's a solution other than scrapping the mighty mouse.
The problem is that when I use XEmacs (an X-windows app I use for coding), I like to use the middle click to paste, but I almost always manage to make the scroll-ball scroll inadvertently which causes the middle-click to not work and hence, nothing gets pasted. I know that there are other methods I could utilize, like setting up option-left-click or by command-c/command-v, or by using menus, but that's not what I want. I just want to highlight and middle-click. I want to have a middle-click that works with one try every time. I use all the clicking surfaces, so I don't want to map middle click to some other button. Is there a way I can tell X11 to ignore the scroll and middle-click anyway? Can someone give me a pointer on how to middle click better? This is crazy.
Thanks,
Rob

Have you tried an alternate Mouse driver?
USB Overdrive
<http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/13443>
SteerMouse
<http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/27620>
I think they have demo modes.
Personally, I use a Logitech mouse with about 9 buttons. My scroll wheel can be pushed left or right. Left is configured to Copy and Right is configured for Paste. Via USB Overdrive it does Command-C/Command-V for Mac applications, and the correct thing for X11 applications. That is to say, I can have the buttons do different things for different applications.

Using Bluetooth Mighty Mouse

I have a new Mac Pro and a Macbook Pro. Can I use the same bluetooth Mighty Mouse for both computers? I tried pairing it with the second mac after it was already paired and it stopped working with the first.
Thanks!

It can only be paired with one computer at a time.

How can I use my Magic mouse in a Macbook pro?

I have an iMac and I'm using the magic mouse. I just got a Macbook Pro and would like to use the mouse with this computer too.
How can I make it work in both computers?
I won't use them at the same time of course. I use one during the day, and the other at night so I'm hoping to make the mouse work in both.
Thanks in advance!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
You have been very helpful! I will try that! Thanks!!
PS: One last question, will it work if I put it in "sleep" mode or it has to be shut down?
Thanks again!

but it won't work. ;(..

Upgraded to Maverick. Can't use my mighty mouse
