Why does only my magic mouse work with 10.6.8 update?!!!

Hi. Ever since updating my software to 10.6.8, the ONLY mouse I can use is the Magic Mouse - ANYTHING ELSE I try and use, wireless or not, will cause my computer to crash. I get asked to turn it off and back on. As soon as I try another mouse, I get a black curtain go down my screen and the message comes up. I have been getting these Kernal Panic things also when I start up with another mouse connected. I HATE THE MAGIC MOUSE! And now I am being forced to use it. Is Apple serious about this? It's ridiculous. I can't work properly with this mouse. HELP!!!!! Is there going to be any fix?

If your HP is networked and using Bonjour as a protocol, then the 10.6.8 update made some changes to the core backend services such as Bonjour and this could be causing the error. With the job in error in the print queue, you can highlight the job (click once to select it) and then press the Job Info button (the blue circle with the white I inside). Doing this will give more information about the problem. You can post that information back here so we can advise what steps to take next.
If the printer is connected to the Mac via USB then you may just need to remove the existing print queue, by opening Print & Fax and selecting the HP and then pressing the minus button. With the queue removed you can then click the plus button to add the queue again, selecting the HP in the Default Add Printer view.

  • Why does only Basic HTML gmail work with Mozilla/5.0 on my iMac (Mac OS X 10.4, FF/3.6.13 GTB7.1?

    My Firefox browser 3.6.13 on my iMacOS X 10.4 "spins" until I click on it several times. A message box says it is processing scrip at this time. I click on it to stop processing scrip.
    Recently, it has been impossible to open gmail unless I click on "Basic HTML." Google tells me to upgrade my browser, but no matter how often I attempt to download and install Firefox 4 I still have FF 3.6.13.

    Hello Ivan.
    The Mac OS X 10.4.7 Update introduced connection issues as a result of (according to the documentation) "Mail now supports connecting to mail servers through a SOCKS proxy". If that's the problem, you must go to System Preferences > Network and disable the SOCKS Proxy in the network configuration used to connect to the Internet, if it's enabled.
    You should also go to System Preferences > Network > Show: Network Port Configurations, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.

  • Does Magic Mouse work with ipad air?

    Does Magic Mouse work with IPad Air?

    Yes, it is a Bluetooth device. However, my iPad will not connect to the mouse.  Not sure why.
    I use my iPad as my personal computer. Mainly for surfing the web, social media, paying bills online... I already have a Bluetooth keyboard that connects to the iPad, so thought it would be nice to have a mouse.

  • Will the Apple Magic Mouse work with my Mac Mini?

    Hi
    I have a mid 2007 Mac mini — the Model 2,1 — running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, 10•6•8
    I’m thinking of treating myself to the Apple Magic Mouse, or Trackpad.
    Will the Magic Mouse, work with this model and version of the OS … ?
    (I’m ALSO told I need to have Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0: how do I go about checking that I do … ?)

    I'm not sure about the 2007 mini, but a quick check is to open your system preferences and look for Bluetooth preferences.  If there aren't any, then no magic mouse for you...

    How does your left earbud not work with other earbuds?  Do you mean the left earbud doesn't work with your iPod?

  • Does the Magic Mouse work with Macbook pros?

    I've read on a website that the Magic Mouse only works with the iMacs they ship with.
    So, no Macbooks?
    Can someone confirm this?

    I just got my magic mouse and it indeed does work with my 2.8ghz MBP.
    HOWEVER, none of the scrolling features seem to work. The mouse connected to my bluetooth without any problems, it left and right clicks fine but zero touch surface scrolling seems to work.
    Tried reconnecting, on/off, computer restart etc. and no love from the magic mouse whatsoever.
    I'm all ears for any solutions.

  • Will  a Magic mouse work with a Ipad?

    I was told you can pair a magic mouse with a ipad! Tried to sync , but it won't work. Someone else told me you have to jailbreak the ipad. Is this the only way?

    To do what?
    There is no cursor to move around on the iPad.

  • Why does only my right speaker work?

    I have had an Iphone 4 & a 4S. With both phones, only the right speaker works. Can anyone tell me why?

    That's because the left "speaker" is actually a microphone. The right one is a speaker. Kind of weird... but there's nothing wrong. It's so you can talk on the phone

  • Will the Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse work with my iMac G5?

    My Dad just sent me his old iMac G5 17". and I was wondering if the Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse will work with it!? I don't really have a place to put the computer.. so I was hoping to get the wireless mouse and keyboard so I don't have to be connected to the computer.

    I have the most recent (2 AA batteries, not 3) wireless keyboard and magic mouse running on a PowerMac G5. Your iMac G5 has the same class of processor, which isn't Intel. My Mac has built-in bluetooth support, which is what these products use. I'm unsure if your iMac has bluetooth built-in or not, but if it doesn't, you can purchase the Belkin bluetooth USB dongle. That has been widely reported to work just fine within OSX.
    Anyway, yes, your iMac G5 can run the wireless keyboard and mouse. You just might have to work a little for it.
    Good luck!

  • Is it possible to use the Apple wireless keyboard with the iPhone 6? Will the Magic Mouse work with iMovie on iPhone6 Plus?

    iPhone 6 page says that iMovie is a (free) application available for iPhone 6. When I use it on the desktop I need a mouse. Should I expect all controls to be touch-sensitive, or is it possible to use the wireless Magic Mouse? Similarly, if I want to type an email or a long document, is it possible to use the Mac wireless keyboard to enter text? With the iPhone 6 Plus taking over for laptops (phablet), it seems to me that input tools are relevant. Maybe what I'm asking is whether the iPhone6 (OS8) has drivers for these devices. Please advise.

    Apps that are designed for iOS devices such as the iOS version of iMovie are intended to be used entirely by touch. It's worth noting that iMovie for iOS is not absolutely identical to iMovie for Mac OS.

  • Why won't my magic mouse pair with my computer?

    I use a magic mouse and logictech wireless keyboard. My computer died (video card) so after I brought it back repaired from the shop, it won't pair with my mouse and keyboard. I have tried setting up a bluetooth device but it doesn't recognize them. What to do?

  • Will the Magic Mouse Work with the new iPad?

    I know it can work with the wireless keyboard.... but will it work with the mighty mouse?

    You could argue that the iPad doesn't have a use for an external keyboard either. Yet it supports one. And truth be told this is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, reasons having optional mouse support would be nice.
    You see when typing on an external keyboard you have to reach up and over to tap the iPad. This gets tiring rather quickly. Ironically this is the very reason Steve Jobs argued that touchscreens don't work for notebook computers. A mouse would be more ergonomically sound in this situation. Also the method for selecting text with your finger kind of slow.
    As for the lack of a mouse cursor.... as unsanctioned software tweaks have proven, one could easily be added while the mouse is connected.

  • Why does my ipod no longer work with my alpine car stereo

    my ipod connects directly to my alpine car stereo and up til now it has worked great. i recently synced my ipod to my computer and i think it updated the software on my ipod and now my ipod no longer works with my alpine stereo. what is up? did apple change something that would make my ipod no longer compatible with my car stereo? if so, what do i do? i have about $1000 invested in my car stereo and ipod specifically for car use. this is a serious issue for me! i just want my ipod to work like it did…
    i just connected my friends ipod and it works fine. he has version 1.1.1 software on his. i have version 2.3 on mine. since my ipod works fine by itself i’m assuming that the incompatibility between my ipod and my alpine is due to the software update.
    here again, what do i do? how can i get an older version of software back on to my ipod?
    ipod v.2.3   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...
