My left mouse button stopped working after I upgraded my Mac mini to macOS Sequoia

Since upgrading to Sequoia (Mac Mini M2 Pro) my left mouse button has become intermittently unresponsive and then I have to force a shutdown.

Another problem: The recovery button sequences don't work.

Also, the keep shut down button doesn't work for recovery.

This is very serious trouble, I can't work.

What Mouse is being used.


Apple Mice do not have a Left or right Button per se


Another problem: The recovery button sequences don't work.

Start up your computer in macOS Recovery Apple Silicon Computers



Also, the keep shut down button doesn't work for recovery.

Quit macOS Recovery


Your Mac restarts automatically while restoring your system from Time Machine or reinstalling macOS. In other cases, you need to quit macOS Recovery manually (for example, if you want to back up your files before reinstalling macOS, or if you just changed a setting using Startup Security Utility).

In the Recovery app on your Mac, do one of the following:

  • Restart your Mac: Choose Apple menu  > Restart.
  • Choose a different startup disk before restarting your Mac: Choose Apple menu  > Startup Disk, select a startup disk, then click Restart.
  • Shut down your Mac: Choose Apple menu  > Shut Down.



This is very serious trouble, I can't work.
