Magic Mouse's cursor doesn't move (but clicking works)

thanks rmilani12. What i ended up doing was taking it back to Mac store. Luckily my MM was still covered by the warranty (which literally had only a couple days left on it). So i got a new one without any hassels or problems.

Thanks for the response though. I do appreciate it.

Hi Kolohe,

It´s quite nice, for me I could not change it, because my warranty was expired. I bought my MM in 2010.

SAME PROBLEM.

another #applefail

I got the same problem!

My MM just went bust. Unfortunately for me Im out of warranty. This is already my 4th MM. I posted here this same thread about a year ago.

Stay out and dont buy these expensive magic mouse guys. It will stop working after a year.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!

Make sure it isn't a Software problem first, so you don't go out any needlessly but a new mouse. For me, my MM suddenly wouldn't click. It would track but not click on anything.

I found a fix on this website:

It worked for me! Opened System Prefs, unclicked Secondary Click, REBOOTed machine, Re-clicked Secondary Click. All better! I suppose trashing prefs would work too, but then you would loose other settings.

Same problem.

This thread is very old. Try writing your own post, telling us what you have done so far to resolve the matter.

(SOLVE) hi, i have the same problem, cursor cannot move but still can do clicking.
Here's how i solve the problem

- turn on your magic mouse, put off one battery dan switch the position, after that put off and than put it back in the previous position, turn off the magic mouse and turn on again, Its work on my magic mouse. Thx,

Could you repeat the instructions in english maybe?

Sorry, i don't really understand the whole - put off one battery and switch the position -

are you talking about changing the batteries positions?

i.e. Turn on your magic mouse, switch the batteries over and then turn the mouse on again?

thanks

I had the same problem as all of you: Scrolling and clicking works, but cursor movement does nothing. My laser in my mouse doesn't even turn on. By the sounds of it, and with multiple replies here showing people on their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th mouses, it appears that it's a production issue. I wouldn't buy this mouse again unless it has a five year warranty. One year is not enough. It's a shame because it really is an excellent mouse otherwise.

could you please repeat the instructions for your fix.. not so clear..thanks! 🙂
