What did you replace your wireless mighty mouse with?

I am not happy with mine. What mouse did you replace yours with?

I've got an MX1000, I'll agree that it's quite nice. You may want to look around at Logitech's line. The MX1000 uses RF instead of bluetooth to transmit, though Logitech does offer a line of bluetooth mice. However, I've found that the bluetooth mice tend to be overpriced and lacking some features of their RF counterparts.
Currently, the top of the line Logitech cordless mouse is called the G7. It works much like the MX1000 (with a laser instead of LED) but runs at a higher DPS. It also includes two battery packs with an external charger so that you can use the mouse while charging a battery pack. I'm not sure of the price for the G7, but you should be able to find a MX1000 for $40-$50 US.

  • Did you replace your older AE Base (802.11b/g) with a new AE Base 802.11n?

    I am having issues with my iPad maintaining a stable connection to my older Airport Extreme base station. I have the latest 5.7 firmware, and all my other mac computers have no issues, but the iPad's wifi connection is up and down and all over the place. Example, I was sitting near my iMac which had an 8 meg signal on speedtest, and my iPad was a foot away with less than 1 meg. Then about 20 minutes later it went to 5 meg, then later it dropped to almost zero. Meanwhile the other computers have no issues.
    Will upgrading to the new AE base station have any positive effect on my iPad?
    Thanks

    One more thing... when I am in the Airport Utility setup, do I have to do anything to designate my Time Capsule as "N" or does it do this automatically?
    And is this line bull:
    "Note:
    If you’re using Time Capsule as a client on an existing Wi-Fi network, it’s
    recommended that the existing network is an 802.11n network."
    from the User's Guide?

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse Replacement

    I dont know to whom I have to start begging, to actually get this done... But for the love of all that is good on this Earth, can Apple PLEASE replace my wireless mighty mouse, with a wired mighty mouse.
    I've only owned my iMac for a few months, everything works fine, still covered under Apple Care, I just need to downgrade this mouse. The weight of this thing and how quickly it runs through batteries is becoming an issue for me. I'm a Tech Lead for a support call center, and regardless of policy I know this can be done if the right person gives the green light for it. You guys can keep the difference in cost, I'll provide whatever information is needed, I just really want to downgrade this mouse to the wired version...
    *PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE*
    Thank You,
    Charles

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse & No Bluetooth

    Hi
    Some time back when my MacPro was still in warranty I complained to Apple that my Mighty Mouse wasn't working. They sent me a replacement - a wireless Mighty Mouse. I have no Bluetooth so I complained and they sent me a wired one.
    Now I've got to thinking there's times when I could do with getting that wireless mouse to run....
    Can anyone explain how to do this? Can I just buy a dongle or some such to stick in a USB port? Or is that not possible with this machine?
    Thanks in anticipation
    Jim

    Hi Kappy - you're right in thinking my MacPro came without - it was a Refurb, so the basic model.
    Appreciate your point that some BT to USB adaptors may be better than others, and I'll google for suggestions which might be best for MacPro - had hoped someone here might have knowledge of what works and what doesn't.
    Meanwhile I'm 100 miles of Scottish highland roads from the nearest Apple retailer, so I'll see if anything emerges from websearches before I pack it up for the journey!!
    thanks for your help

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse on Windows PC (one last time). Any luck?

    Anyone with any luck trying to pair a wireless Mighty Mouse with a Windows PC?
    I'm trying to get the wireless Mighty Mouse to work on a PC (not a Mac with Boot Camp). I thought it should have been easy enough since I have other Bluetooth devices that work fine. I know that topic has been discussed before but I haven't come across anything definitive that shows a way to get it to work. Would someone please point me in the right direction. If not I'll be returning it for the wired Mighty Mouse.
    As it stands now my Bluetooth software recognizes the Mighty Mouse but it can't pair it. I'm pretty sure it's a Bluetooth software issue. Your thought? Thanks.

    I've installed 'Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba' to pair my bluetooth headset with XP to get music from iTunes. It's working great.
    I've just tried to pair the Mighthy Mouse with XP and it's working!!!

  • How To Quesiton Re: Using Wirless Mighty Mouse with Windows PC

    I would like to use my wireless Mighty Mouse with my work PC. I need some type of wireless dongle but have no idea what type or brand. Could anyone suggest one that has worked for them?
    The PC I will be using at work is running Windows 7.
    Thanks !
    Chuck :- )

    The Mighty Mouse utilizes Bluetooth for wireless connectivity, thus any standards compliant Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR dongle should work. Here is a link to one that should work great:

  • Did Wireless Mighty Mouse come with an installation CD?

    I love my wireless mighty mouse that I bought with my imac but I want to use it with my newly purchased macbook as well. The only problem is, I can't seem to locate the installation CD that I'm assuming came with it.
    The mouse DID come with a CD, correct? Is there anywhere else I can look - drivers embedded in Tiger OSX?
    I've called Apple a couple times (on hold as I "speak"). Anyway, they haven't been able to help me too much, I spent 45 minutes last night and I just had to hang up with them and I couldn't get any answers. I will pay for it but I think maybe they're trying to see if they have any available CD's (I would imagine they should have some extras lying around :)!)
    Thanks for your help.

    You don't need the CD that comes with the Mighty Mouse. All you need to do is go to software update on the Apple menu icon and update your software. If there is any software for the mouse that needs updating, it will update.

  • Wireless keyboard and Wireless Mighty Mouse failure

    Hello,
    I have just bought an iMac 20" with a wireless keyboard and wireless mighty mouse.
    Both the keyboard and mouse will not work properly.
    I followed the installation/setup instructions and paired first the keyboard and then mouse. Then the problems started.
    1. Mighty Mouse tracking is dreadful and very slow (even after adjusting mouse properties)
    2. Keyboard started to drop connection and then when awoke started repeating keys (as if key stuck)
    3. Keyboard then disconnected and will not be recognised when searching for Bluetooth devices nor can I pair it again.
    4. When both were working the Airport extreme wireless network would be lost (but I think that this is a red-herring and irrelevant)
    Interesting once keyboard stopped working the wireless mouse tracking improved.
    The only software I have installed since taking the iMac out of the box are (in order)
    - Running/installing all Apple updates (including firmware 1.1)
    - Installing Firefox 2.0
    - Installing Adobe Reader 8.0
    - Installing Stuffit Reader 11.0
    - Installing Canon Bubble Jet Printer driver
    - Installing latest version of Skype
    If I use a USB mouse or keyboard they work ok.
    This is the second replace imac within 2 weeks. The first had the same problem.
    Can anybody help please as I'm new to Mac's after switching from a PC and I do not want to have to chuck either the keyboard or mouse or have the pain of Apple supplying me with a 3rd replacement iMac

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Congrats on the new Mac.
    Did you Repair Disk Permissions after the software updates and installs?
    Whether this solves this issue for you, it is something that you should always do. Go to Apps/Ut5ilities/Disk Utility and select your OS X HDD. Press Repair Permissions. Run Repair Permissions until no more repairs are reported.

  • Connect Wireless Mighty Mouse to windows xp pro sp2 on bootcamp

    I recently installed windows xp pro sp2 on bootcamp i tried to hook up my Wireless Mighty Mouse and I got basically nowhere. I was able to get the computer to recognize it and i typed in the passkey "0000" and it knows that it is a bluetooth device and I changed the settings of the bluetooth to "always" be discoverable and still I have hit a dead end. I can still not seem to connect the wireless mouse in any way. What do I do???

    I FUIGURED IT OUT!!! omg im so happy right now. For anyone who might be wondering I'll tell you how to make it work it you had the same problem. Once you establish the mouse a device, highlight it in the devices menu, then click properties, then services, and once it is done searching check the box for the driver and click apply and your mouse should work.

  • Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse internal speaker not working !!!

    Recently I bought an used Wireless Mighty Mouse (first version with grey side buttons), the mouse is working perfectly minus the single little detail that I can not hear any clicking sound from the internal tiny speaker inside the mouse when I use the little scroll ball above the mouse or when I press the grey side buttons, is this normal or should I hear the clicking sound simulated by the internal speaker? is there a way to enable or disable the internal speaker by software? Maybe is disabled by default, I don't know. I really don't think the speaker could be damaged due to the rest of the mouse is working like a charm but maybe mine came without a speaker, could be? or maybe it got disconnected somehow. Any clues or ideas would be very helpful. Thanks !

    I know what a microswitch is, please look at these links, here are the proof there is (or maybe there was) a tiny speaker in some mighty mouse and wireless mighty mouse:

    and I can keep giving you tens of links to proof you that actually there is (or maybe there was) a tiny speaker inside the mighty mouse and the wireless mighty mouse, If yours came without one it doesn't necessarily mean all came without one, right? That is why I asked you what version you have in order to figure out which ones does have the speaker and which one doesn't.

  • Latest boot camp + wireless mighty mouse

    Hi,
    I was using boot camp 1.01, I just upgraded to the latest version of boot camp. Now, my wireless mighty mouse scroll doesn't work on the WinXP side. Does anyone know how to get it working again?
    In the bluetooth area in WinXP, it doesn't show the mouse, but the mouse works. I tried to add it but it doesn't find it.

    Not correct. I did the complete install with my bluetooth keyboard and mouse. The firmware has low level basic support for bluetooth and it recognized my keyboard and mouse immediately. Once have finished loading xp and installed the apple drivers, you will need a usb mouse. Once the apple bluetooth driver is loaded, you won't beable to pair your keyboard and mouse until you have gone to the bluetooth control panel in xp. All you need is the mouse to do the pairing. Just have it discovery your mouse and keyboard and select to pair without using the code authentication. The caveat to this is that your keyboard loses it pairing when you start up and you will need to turn if off then on to repair. It might loss the pairing later on if you do not use the keyboard for a while. Just turn it off and on again and it will re-pair.

  • Random Loss of Secondary Button with Wireless Mighty Mouse 2

    Seems that Apple has locked the previous thread on this topic, though I don't know why. People are having issues with Apple hardware, so they lock the thread? Nice.
    I'm having this issue with my brand new WMM, and I got it for Christmas and I don't have a receipt. Serial# KY6470E02SE2A
    Will I be able to return this piece of crap mouse? The previous thread on this issue dates back to August 8th, 2006 and they haven't been able to fix this yet? Worse yet, they're still selling them! That's bad business if you ask me.

    I don't know for sure whether it's hardware or software. Since there has been no software fix issued for this OBVIOUS DEFECT yet, I'm assuming it's a hardware/design problem.
    I'm also betting that Apple won't respond to this thread as they didn't respond to the previous one. They did lock it however, so they must have seen all the people complaining about the problem.
    I'm really irritated about the arrogant people who recently posted the reviews for the wireless Mighty Mouse at the Apple Online Store. A few say, "Just lift your finger off the left button and right-click works like a charm." No it doesn't! My right-click doesn't work after 15 or so minutes whether no other part of my hand is touching the mouse or not. Perhaps their mouse works fine, but mine and many other's on this board do not. They should not be posting such statements as, "Don't listen to the people who can't right click with their Mighty Mouses. They just don't know how to use it." They haven't used mine, or seen me use it, so how the heck do they know? Their mouse isn't defective, so everyone else's must be perfect too? Ignorant twits. My mouse is defective, and this is a genuine problem.

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse Right Button does not work well

    Recently I bought in Online Apple Store a Wireless Mighty Mouse.
    I installed the drivers that came in the CD, and, I defined in the System Preferences the second button of the mouse (the Right Button) to function as the Secondary Button.
    But after the computer going to sleep and I wakes it up, or I stop a little to work with the Mouse, or then without none apparent reason, the Right Button behaves as the Left Button, like if it had one and only button in the Mouse.
    To solve the problem I have to disconnect the mouse and/or the bluetooth connection, so that the Right Button functions again as I defined it in the System Preferences like a Secondary Button. But I think that is not the solution for who needs a mouse to work.
    Therefore, I thank you a solution to solve this problem.
    Sincerely,
    Paulo
    The computers where I worked with this Wireless Mighty Mouse and where I had this problem was:
    - a PowerBook 12", 1.5GHz
    - and a MacBook Pro 15", 1.83GHz
    - both with MacOS 10.4.8
    (Sorry for my bad english)

    There are a few threads going describing this problem Discussions. (E.g., check out this one.)
    It appears that there's probably a hardware QC issue with some fraction of the wireless Mighty Mice. Replacing the bad mouse -- either at a local Apple Store or via AppleCare online -- is what I'd suggest. (That's what I ended up doing and the replacement mouse has been fine.)

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse - No Horizontal Scroll

    PB G4 10.4.6

    Zoom -ok
    Will not scroll Horizontally - and have no idea of
    what 360 is
    To achieve horizontal scrolling you have to select the 360 Degree option. With this option, the mighty mouse driver activates the x-axis sensor inside the mouse. With both x- and y-axis sensors working, the scroll ball operates like your typical analog ball mouse of yore--only it's upside-down. Personally, I think the System Preference option should read "2π Radians."
