My iMac keeps crashing when I scroll with my bluetooth mouse

When I move my bluetooth mouse, it crashes. I produce a TV Show with Adobe products (Premiere Pro) and it gets annoying! S/N H4***N7C, Sonoma 14.0 (23A344)

Restart the computer in Safe Mode and then restart normally and test. If that fails please do the following:


The following will require any USB keyboard and mouse. If you don’t have them, borrow or buy them, they are inexpensive!


1.     Connect the USB keyboard and mouse to the computer.

2.     Open System Preferences – Bluetooth

3.     Un-pair the wireless keyboard and mouse.

4.     Turn off Bluetooth

5.     Restart the computer in Safe Mode per the directions in Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support

6.     Restart the computer normally.

7.     Open System Preferences – Bluetooth

8.     Turn on Bluetooth

9.     Re-Pair the wireless keyboard and mouse.

10.  Unplug the USB keyboard and mouse and begin testing the wireless devices again.
