Magic Mouse Loses Connection

that works great. thanks

Just dont read it Slothead. Nobody is forcing you. Who made you the boss anyway?

Me too mate. A couple of post-its worth less than a penny (or cent if your over the pond), and zilch connection issues.

I have found this to be true as well. Turning off bluetooth on my iPhone and iPad seems to have corrected the issue.

Dear Barry

Thanks a bunch that really worked!! 🙂

Cheers

This is such a long (and old) thread I'm wondering if you should start a new one of your own. It's an interesting question.

I used contact cleaner and cleaned all four the contacts inside the mouse and on the batteries. The Mouse already disconnected again after that.

Thanks! That worked perfectly for me 🙂

And very nice it is too, to read such a heart warming story. All too often we read badly written and unreasonable grousing, liberally endorsed with censored words.

Well done to you, Hans.

Tried the BusinessCardBuffer on my not-so-magic Mouse. Works like a charm.

OOPS! Spoke too soon. Retiring TheNotSoMagicMouse for good ol' USofB. I'll miss the finger-swiping but I can live with that.

Have/Had the same problem on BOTH my MacBook Pro 13 Retina and 15 Retina. Yes, loose batteries are an issue and yes, the many many suggestions in the thread help address that problem (I use the a double-thick business card stock between the batteries myself). What I also discovered was a BT SIGNAL/PROXIMITY problem.

I use a Henge Horizontal Dock for both machines and noticed intermittent connections/Jitter/Sticking when using the mouse a ~45 degree angle to the lower left corner of both MacBooks when the screen was down. Move the mouse to another angle, and all is well! To fix, I simply opened the screen. If I had to guess, the antenna for the BT is in the screen....get too close to the corner and at the wrong angle, and mouse response "jitters" and "sticks". Attached pictures show what I mean.

Hope this helps.

I had this problem with a 2nd hand magic mouse 2 so a bought a new one yesterday. The same problem so I'm returning the wireless mouse. Back to the cable!
