Will any wired MIghty Mouse still work with my G5?

Unfortunately, my Mighty Mouse has reached the impossible-to-clean-trackball-anymore stage. It just won't scroll up anymore.
My current Mighty Mouse dates to 2006 or 2007. I wish I knew the exact model number beyond A1152.
Must I be concerned about what model Mighty Mouse I buy to replace this one? I know they came out with some zoom version. I don't care about the zoom. I just want the basic scrolling (I don't even use the side buttons; just click and scrolling).
Will any model of wired Mighty Mouse be okay?
Thanks so much!

  • Does Mighty Mouse only work with desktop Macs??

    I just bought an Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse, assuming it'd work with my new Leopard OS X Macbook. I followed the instructions on the Mighty Mouse booklet...but no installation start-up window ever appeared. I'm a beginner with Apple, so I figure I've done something wrong....does the Mighty Mouse only work with desktop Macs and not MacBooks?
    Please help if you can.

    Ah! sorry, my mistake! "wireless" was the key word. And yes, prior to my new mighty mouse, I also used the wireless one. And you need to do the following:
    1) Turn bluetooth ON (either from finder icon (you can have it placed on your finder bar by tick box in sytem preferences/bluetooth.
    2) Then, you need to "pair" your mouse via bluetooth setup assistant.
    3) once "paired" off you go.

  • Cannot get bluetooth mighty mouse to work with win xp sp3 bootcamp ver 2.1

    I have tried the most popular solution of establishing the mouse as a device, highlighting it in the devices menu, then clicking properties, then services, and once it is done searching checking the box for the "drivers for keyboard, mice, etc [HID]and clicking apply. get the message with the header bluetooth error access denied. this happened recently when I updated bootcamp before mouse worked flawlessly for month on xp. If anybody has any solutions it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Forgot to mention mighty mouse works fine in the mac os partition

    Try this solution. First click on the bluetooth icon at the bottom of the windows screen. Then click show bluetooth devices, then click add new devices and when the new device shows up double click on the device. Then a windows shows up at the top of this window it says general and other. Chose other. Another window shows up and check the small box. This small box searches for windows drivers just for this bluetooth device. When done it should pair and work fine.

  • Will 1st gen ipod touch still work with new itunes library on new computer (transfer didn't work from old computer)

    Ok, so I have a new computer and wanted to transfer my itunes library from my old computer. I could not get the files to transfer. I downloaded the newest version of itunes and see that I can download my previously purchased music to the new computer. I have mp3's that I can add in on my own so I don't have a problem starting over in itunes.
    My question is what happens when I plug in my 1st gen ipod touch and try to sync??? Will it erase what is on my ipod or will I be able to move the stuff from my ipod into my new itunes library?? Any info would be great...I'm happy with how my ipod is set up so I really don't want to mess with a good thing. Also, will I need to update and of my software on my ipod since it's 1st generation??
    Thanks for the help!!

    You can only sync to one iTunes library/computer. If you do sync the iPod is erases and its contents replaced with what is in the iTunes library of the second computer.
    To avoid that see:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    Yes, the 1G works with the latest iTunes.

  • Will any Creative MP3/Video Players Work With Vista Ultimate/Yahoo Music Out of the B

    i've had a heck of a time getting my zen touch to work with my new vista ultimate dell pc, almost ready to give up. why i'm even thinking of getting another creative device given the above i'm not sure, but if i was, do any of the current devices (20gb or greater, mostly for music but want video capabilities) work with vista and yahoo music correctly and without a huge amount of heartache? and if not, any other devices i should look at? i really like the yahoo music service so don't want to go the apple route. thx!

    iTunes is only intended for iPods and iPhones. In recent releases, Apple has instituted changes that prevent it from being used with other devices, e.g. release 8.2.1 deliberately broke the ability to sync with the Palm Pre.
    Since you will be using multiple platforms, make sure that all music that your rip or purchase is in MP3 format. Then your music can be used in iTunes, Creative, or any other player or program, without conversion or compatibility problems.
    Per the problem with Zen and Vista, you may wish to try the question on a Zen discussion.

  • Please help! Will any of these camera's work with VC3 Camera Requirements?

    I am looking to do news broadcasts for my website. I was looking into Panasonic GS-500, GOOD CAMERA, discontinued. I don't like the GS320 as it doesn't include a mic or headphone input. So I have no choice but to spendaround a thousand dollars for a 3CCD or CMOS camera that can shoot good broadcast web news segments.
    I have narrowed my choice to three camera's that have mic, firewire, essential for VC3 but I can't decide. I don't know if they are compatibile with the software, need help from the experts.
    This is requirement from the adobe website:
    ******What types of cameras can I use with Visual Communicator?*******
    Visual Communicator works with standard webcams and camcorders. Most camcorders will require some kind of video input card such as a FireWire (IEEE 1394) card or an analog capture card. Whether you are using a webcam or camcorder, it's important that the camera or input card has a Windows®driver that is DirectShow compatible. Most of them do. If your device is older, you might need to visit the manufacturer's website to download a new driver that is DirectShow compatible. Inside Visual Communicator you will find a menu that lists all of the DirectShow devices attached to your computer, and you can select which one you wish to use for your video input. If you have an analog video capture card, you can also hook up your VCR and use recorded footage.*********
    Could you please read the specs and let me know if they will work with VC3:

  • Will Any Usb DVD-RW drive work with the 2011 Mac mini?

    I am considering buying a USB DVD-RW drive, and i wanted to hear from people with first hand experience of USB dvd drive support for Mac's I'm looking for a DVD-RW DL drive, so It can burn DVD DL CD's normal DVD's RW's etc. Things a modern superdrive would do esentially.
    I have checked and i personaly think the Official apple one will hit my bank too hard, not to mention it doesn't bother me what It looks like
    Can anyone recommend any Drives that work?(It will also be used on My PC and Macbook with a broken superdrive)
    I was looking around the £15-£25 price range
    I was allso wondering if a USB to Sata with a Sata DVD drive will work? As from what i can see nobody has tried it!
    Any help will be appriciated.
    Thanks, Scott.

    This OS X compatible > LG GE24LU20 Reviews works great with my iMac and Mac Mini.

  • Will any of my old displays work with the new Mac Mini

    I am thinking of getting a new Mac Mini.     What I need to know is if any of the monitor/displays I have here can bem used.
    I have two old video monitors I used to used with my old  mac mini (Samsung Symc Master 770 and old little Princeton  - VL158) , a
    n early 2006 iMac 20" (which I don't think I could use as a monitor from what I read) and an little Samsung TV with USB and HDMI connectors.,
    Can I use any of these? 
    Need new connector cords?   Mini-DVI to VGA adapter?
    Thanks

    I am a writer though  and a photographer (strictly point and shoot) for a couple of orgs.  I just don't want o run out of space.  And I hate!! slow response time.  
    Is the i5 adequate as well?
    Glad to have found an Apple guru so quickly.  May very well buc you more in the future.

  • Will any branded expresscard USB3.0 work with 17" PRO

    This is something i had researched a while back and found that the answer was no, unless i wanted to go with lacie's proprietry driver or sonnetts card which is a little more than i would want to pay considering the price of incompatible cards. Now that apple have released their new lineup i assume they'll have native drivers. My question is, will this open the old macbooks up to a wider range of usb3 expresscards.
    Thank you.

    Your reasoning is valid but it does not follow that it will be that case.  I did have a conversation with a member of the technical stall at OWC regarding USB3 express cards and they related to me that data transfer rates were increased but not up the the levels USB3 is capable of.  No precise numerical values were quoted to me.

  • Can (mighty) mouse buttons work w/Lion?

    My wired USB Apple Mouse (aka Mighty Mouse) worked fine with 10.5.8 - Sys Pref / Mouse let me assign functions to the left, right, top/scroll, and side buttons.  I just upgraded to 10.6.8 and immediately to 10.7.5 Lion, and although the Sys Pref / Mouse window provides similar settings to 10.5.8, three of the five functions don't work. 
    The Left button is ok, and the Scroll ball (on top) scrolls ok.  But the Right button acts just like the Left button, and the Top ball/button push and the Side buttons push don't do anything at all.  Thankfully, there are no bizarre problems like the cursor leaping around, and I can hit Control - Left (Primary) button and get the Right (Secondary) button action.
    I like my old Mighty Mouse and hope I don't have to get a newer / aftermarket one.  Any help will be appreciated.

    Sorry for the duplicate post, I am on two different threads concerning this problem. I had contact with Apple Support through the complimentary support for purchasing Lion. They took note that the wired mighty mouse worked with my Macbook air running Lion 10.7.4, that my Wacom pen and tablet could be programmed to right click on my Macpro running 10.7.5 from the App store but seemed stuck on the requirement for a clean install even though I related clean installs from this discussion forum have not worked.
    Out of curiousity I tried the USB Overdrive shareware:
    http://www.senlick.com/html/01.01.html
    My wired USB mighty mouse now works with Lion as it did with Snow Leopard, again to me this points to the release of Lion on the app store.
    I am going to write the Apple support case handler again and let her know, I have not heard back from them since November 1, hopefully they are working on the problem.

  • Why isn't my wired Mighty Mouse scrolling down?

    Some days like right now my wired Mighty Mouse that came with my late 2007 20" aluminum iMac doesn't want to scroll downwards. The scroll ball scrolls upwards and sideways perfectly but doesn't want to scroll down. Why is it doing this? I tried cleaning the area of the scroll ball but still nothing. Please don't say that I need a new mouse.

    I have the same problems with my less than six weeks old 24" iMac & two yr old macbook: i always wipe my hands before using them. I have tried most suggestions on this forum and others to no avail.
    I could probably get a replacement thru apple care for my iMac, but since the problem is so prevalent, another mouse is not a viable solution.
    At this time, I actually prefer using an old cheap wired mouse that was in storage .
    To those considering another brand, I had random waking & waking only with restarting issues with a wireless logitech mouse on my macbook.

  • I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my simplePass identity protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE.

    I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my HP SimplePass Identity Protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE. It worked with the previous Firefox version but now when I use the internet, it doesn't even acknowledge I have the scanner. When I run my finger over it, it opens the settings panel but does not allow use of the already saved information or allow new information to be entered. I need this corrected. Any suggestions?

    I asked this same question, and just received a response:
    "Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases
    for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for
    Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do
    not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep
    DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona
    is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications.
    In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after
    Mid-April of this year.
    We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
    In other words, there will be NO update.

    Also, I am trying to connect my Mini from the mini-Displayport to the Displayport of my Dell U2410 monitor.  The image is very grainy,even though it is set to the correct resolution: 1920 X 1200 at 60Hz.  If I use HDMI to VGA input, the image is much clearer.  Is there a way to get the Displayport to work?

    I'm having exactly the same keyboard issue.  Certainly nothing has ever enhanced my concentration while coding like suddenly becoming unable to type.
    I'm seeing a great many devicemgr and rake errors in my system log.  I don't know if they're related.  How 'bout you?
    If you're unfamiliar with the system log…
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    If necessary, choose View > Show Log List.
    system.log is at the top of the FILES section.
    Try searching it for hot words like DEBUG, FATAL, and aborted.
    I've found some discussions that would tend to indicate my errors are postGres related – I'm running OS X server.
