Does anyone else have the issue of using an original Magic Mouse (1)A1296 with iPadOS 13.4 and can’t get it to scroll using the gesture?
Is there something I can do to fix it? Or is this just the way to force us vying MM2?
turn on/off, re-pairing doesn’t help at all.
I also get this warning:
iPad Pro 11-inch Wi-Fi, Cellular
As per https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211008 "iPadOS doesn't support scrolling or other gestures with Apple Magic Mouse (1st generation) and Magic Trackpad (1st generation)". This is unacceptable and there is no way this is a "Hardware" restriction as the mouse sends a digital signal to the computer (or iPad) and the software is responsible for translating and executing the instructions. I really never say this (or feel this way about Apple) but this is a perfect example of Apple restricting something for no reason other than to get you to purchase a new product. All they need to do is (for lack of a better way of putting it) unlock this feature. It isn't even a feature, it is something Mice have been doing for decades.... As I did, all you can do is put in feedback at apple.com/feedback and maybe if enough people complain they will fix it.... Very unnecessarily frustrating...
I just spent over $2000 on apple products this week alone. After doing that installing my first gen Magic Mouse and having it work for no reason other than to just get me to buy the same thing is so disappointing. Seriously its a mouse ! A mouse is something you should be able to plug into anything for many years to come and it works! What bothers me most is Microsoft creates a product like a surface that uses any apple mouse like its nothing yet my own apple product wont work with it.. This is getting old.
Discussions of beta software are not allowed here. Wait to see if the final release version solves your issue.
GM is by definition only a “candidate” for official release, NOT the public release.
13.4 officially released, scrolling on magic mouse 1 still not working? what is the reason for this?
I have the same issue. Makes the feature a lot less useful. 🙁
I can’t even click and drag to scroll content. I used to be able to do so in the previous version, so now the mouse has lost functionality as clicking now selects rather than holding
There are options for scrolling which do not seem to work
Is there a way to send massive complains about that?
Brilliant, I tried to connect a crapy Chinese bluetooth mouse (~5€), and scrolling works! It is probably also old the same as my Magic Mouse...
Yeah. They want you to buy a new Magic Mouse..
Magic mouse 1 iPad Air 2 scrolling and gestures are not working.
Really this is fully ridiculous that iPadOS not supporting this device.
@Apple team please provide sw update
I have absolutely no idea if this will help anyone but I’m going to post it just in case.
Since the update to iPadOS 13.4 I have been struggling with my third-party mouse and scrolling. As a disabled user who also uses AssistiveTouch and a few other things this is a big problem for me, although that doesn’t seem to be relevant here as my troubleshooting plus all of your experiences seem to suggest that this is an issue with a pointer Control in general. I have just told my iPad to completely forget my Bluetooth mouse and then I reconnected it and suddenly scrolling is working again. I have no idea if this is a permanent fix as I have had periods of it working and then suddenly periods of not. I’m sure some of you have already tried this, but I just thought I would post it and see if it helps anyone.
I completely agree. Apple is finding a non sustainable cheap way to make people buy their product. Cheap and non sustainable business model.
Apparently, third party mouse just works find with scrolling, wondering why Magic Mouse scroll would not work.
Can you advise a 3rd party bluetooth mouse (cheaper than a magic mouse) on Amazon that would work with ipad?
Thanks
