How can I change default mouse buttons on a non-mac mouse? I have a wireless usb mouse (not bluetooth) that I specifically purchased because it has extra side buttons I want to use to create key-bindings for gaming. There are two Mouse Side Buttons. I was able to change Mouse Side Button two (the most forward one), but Mouse Side Button 1 defaults to the same thing as the F3 Key ("show desktop"). I am trying to figure out how to remove this functionality from the button so I can reassign it to something actually useful. I already have a button on my kepboard for this and would rather assign it to something else. The preferences > Mouse options dont even show side buttons to change so Im not sure where this mouse got the idea that I want that button assigned as an additional F3 key. Any advice would be appreciated. macOS Catalina version 10.15.7 MacBook Pro (16 inch 2019) 2.4 ghz 8 core intel core i9 64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 AMD Radeon Pro 5500m 8 GB Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

Can the Keyboard Pointer Control Be Switched on and Off Song the Keyboard I know how to set the pointer to be controlled by head movements and to use the number keys on my Mac keyboard. But the problem is, when I have the pointer set to be controlled by the number keys (as an alternative option to the trackpad) they only do that. ie. they move the pointer but do not act as input keys for the numbers .I DO want to use the number keys to input numbers. Is there a way to turn that option on and off using the keyboard?
