Right Mouse Button Not Working on Magic Mouse

I have a problem when trying to use a right click on my Magic Mouse. The right click function just doesn’t work even if it is enabled in System Preferences (Mouse --> Preferences --> Secondary Click enabled to “Right”). When I change the secondary click to “Left,” the “Right click” function works perfectly fine (using the left click as an activation button). However, when they change it back to “Right,” the “Right click” function stops working again.

How can I fix this problem?

Greetings kn0pka,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! I understand the right-click function isn't working with your Magic Mouse as expected.

Let's have you test the behavior after turning the Magic Mouse off and on. Additionally, remove the Magic Mouse from the Bluetooth settings on your Mac, set the devices up again, and then test the behavior. You can see those steps in the following support articles:

If the issue persists, then I suggest reaching out to Apple Support for further assistance: Get Support

Kind regards.

Hey Chris,

I followed the steps you suggested but nothing helps.

Moreover, my Magic Mouse serial number is not searchable at Apple's Support page.

As I know such accessories aren't searchable.

Regards.
