One possibility is you have "Smart zoom" enabled in System Settings > Mouse.

Why is my Magic Mouse so erratic on my iMac? I am using an Apple bluetooth magic mouse on a 20,1 iMac running Sequoia 15.0.1. When I use the mouse it is very erratic and nearly impossible to land the cursor on a specific spot. I have gone to settings and adjusted the mouse speed down to the lowest position. This has helped a very small amount and I now need to move the mouse nearly two feet on my desktop to move the cursor the with of a letter sized page. In general it appears that the magic mouse is not compatible with my iMac. Are there any solutions other than going out and purchasing a new mouse? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Magic Mouse doesn't work on iMac I have an Apple Magic Mouse, wireless, fully loaded. It works with my MacBook Air, but not with my iMac (it did before). Turning on and off WiFi doesn't help. Rebooting neither. Any ideas?

Magic Mouse is not scrolling on MacBook Air 13" running macOS Sonoma 14.7 Followed all the suggestions on site - still will not scroll. I have a MacBook Air from 2018/2019 but was told the mouse is compatible. Is there anything I can do? [Re-Titled by Moderator]
