Wireless mouse expose buttons dont work

Can anyone tell me if the side buttons on the wireless mouse work? On the mighty mouse they reveal expose but in the wireless mouse nothing happens.

Hi, Santi —
Yes, they "work" —
            — but not in any way akin to what you're hoping.
The side "buttons" are intended to provide what I'll call a "Hold" capability — and that's all. The idea is...  how do I explain this...  let's say you're moving the mouse and it reaches the end of the pad/desk surface. Instead of losing dursor controrl entirely, you press-and-hold these "side buttons" while raisng the mouse, then placing it back wherever needed to begin again. Theoretically (and actually, if you hold 'em just right), the cursor will remain static during this maneuver.
So, as advertised, the Apple Wireless mouse is a single-button mouse.
Sorry to disappoint. Maybe someday...
Regards,
Dean

  • Sound and brightness buttons dont work anymore

    my sound and brightness buttons dont work any more unless I hold down the function button. This happened after I downloaded the new update I think. Is there any key combination that I could have hit that made this happen?

    Go to System Preferences->KeyBoard & Mouse->KeyBoard and make sure "Use the F1-F12 keys to control software featues" is off. It probably got turned on somehow by the update.

    I have the exact same problem.  I noticed this started after some windows update just prior to upgrading to Windows 7.  And then it got worse after the upgrade. 
    I'm having to go into the task manager and end the smartmenu.exe application just to stop the nagging volume bar across the middle of the screen and just to use the computer, but the Volume still jumps around rapidly.
    Please, HP read this and help.

  • Volume button dont work correctly

    Hello,
    I have iPhone 4S on 5.1.1 which I bought in September last year.
    Yesterday when I listen to music with my iPhone I found out the the MINUS volume button dont work correctly.
    It's need to push him hard to decrease the volume. however the PLUS volume button work correctly.
    In addition there is no "click" sound when I press the minus volume button.
    what should I do?
    I live in ISRAEL and there isn't Apple Store here so the only solution for me is to contact the carrier which I bought the iPhone from them but they probably will require payment for the repair.

    sorry but i actually need to use the volume buttons Jujusoccer11
    i've tried resetting already and restoring from back up already but still has the same problem lllaass,
    i'll try restoring to factory defaults now, i hope  it works

  • Qosmio x300 and Win7 - FN buttons dont work

    I reinstalled Windows 7 and now the FN buttons dont work. I have installed the newest version of VAP, the flash card utility is running. So I have no idea.
    Did I forget to install something?
    Or is there a tool who installs all drivers for my Qosmio x300 in one piece?

    Hi
    Normally its enough if you install Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility to use the FN keys. But make sure that both tools are released for Windows 7 and not for old Vista.
    As far as I know if you search for Qosmio X300 on the Toshiba page you will only find VAP for Windows 7. The Flash Cards Support Utility is an older version. I would recommend install a newer version, for example search for Satellite L550. There you can find Flash Cards Support Utility for Windows 7, its version 1.63.0.4

    Yes, I did try with Xperia Z3 and it works fine for me. If you have tried safe mode, you should perhaps try a software repair on your phone via PC Companion to see if this can help:
    http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/
    In PC Companion you press start on Support Zone > Start on Update the phone/tablet software > Repair phone/tablet (the blue clickable link in the message) > Follow these steps without having your device connected to the PC.
    Follow the instruction that appears in the program and do not connect your device until this guide tells you how to connect it.

    i've tried reprogramming it, turning it on and off... nothing works.
    it really sucks, i've been going to so many nokia care centers and they've been making me go around in circles.
    i'm gonna try again tomorrow. it's really hard because my messages come in but i can't do anything. i can't read any of them! i can't even read my contacts. i can't even back up the info stored inside because it requires me to press buttons!!!
    For your case the nokia care centres are the main help source for you. It's very sad they are circling you around.

  • POWL buttons dont work

    SRM 7.01 and ECC6.0 EhP5
    Hi experts,
    on srm- POWL application many buttons dont work. Im able to see Purchase orders etc., but when i select a PO,  the buttons(e.g.: "edit", "change", "disyplay" ) are clickable, but no action follows. A javascript.void() error is shown in the browser.
    I analysed the buttons and found out that they try to call the powl  (of course). But the http-request receives  an http 403 forbidden response. (wether i call on http or https).
    (URL CALL: mycompany.com:8XXX/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/powl;sap-ext-sid=E871l_9YTvSOSH9ffhw7bQtEaqrJsDeZHNvkWQbzsLyA?sap-contextid=SID%3aANON%3asrmsystem_00%3alYDfk8xxwglgfx4Zt9wTURpcrEaXLZYQ9SN1JVNb-NEW).
    The SRM-trace doesnt show any usefull hints. (just the failed http call)
    Is there any special Authorization for the POWL application?
    Do you have an idea, how to solve this problem?
    Thanks
    Infos:
    Alle connections between enterprise-portal and srm are set up to https and work (checked). Systemaliases checked.
    User has SAP_ALL on involved systems, portal roles, and pfcg roles.
    RFC connections to erp are checked and work.
    I've tried different browser and popups are allowed

    Hi,
    You have to check the POWL authorisation for the user
    Checking Authorization
    Check the required authorizations using the authorization object CA_POWL in the backend system.
    In transaction SU03 (Maintain Authorizations and Profiles) double-click the object class AAAB (Cross-Application Authorization Objects) and then select the authorization object CA_POWL (Authorizations for Personal Object Worklist).
    The following authorization fields enable you to define complex authorizations in an AND relationship to check whether a user is allowed to perform a certain action:
    ●     POWL_APPID     Application ID
    ●     POWL_CAT          Activity
    ●     POWL_LSEL          Authority state: allowed or disallowed
    ●     POWL_QUERY     Activity
    ●     POWL_RA_AL     Authority state: allowed or disallowed
    ●     POWL_TABLE     Authority state: allowed or disallowed
    For more information, see the system documentation for the authorization object CA_POWL.

  • Apple wireless mouse and keyboard stop working ... now says OS X version and bluetooth incompatible

    For no apparent reason my apple wireless mouse and keyboard stopped working. I was not upgrading or installing anything, the batteries are good, nothing was changed as far as I know. Now bluetooth discovers the paired devices, connects for about 30 seconds, the disconnects ... or stays connected but doesn't work.
    What's happenned ... I'm rushing to finish a big job ... any ideas? I've tried re-pairing but doesn't work ... says that OSX version may be incompatible with device bluetooth ... I'm using Lion so maybe there is another lion problem?

    Hello:
    Barry: What do you mean with "making devices favorites"?
    This is the method:
    Go to system preferences>bluetooth.  Highlight an item in the sidebar.  If detailed information does not appear, click on the little gear and select show more info.  Then click on the gear again and select favorite.
    And how could an hardware-related problem be (temporarily) solved rebooting the OS?
    Intermittent problems are, IMHO, most often caused by hardware.  Restarting will occasionally "fix" problems - why, I do not know.
