Q: The mouse will track ok, but the clicking won't work. I tried another mouse, same thing.  I'm using USB corded mice.  Then, I tried a regular cordless mouse, the one that came with it. Nothing.  Any ideas what I should do?  (Aluminum iMac, Snow Leaopard)

Help !

    It sounds like the mouse is dirty or needs to be replaced. To clean it get a clean sheet of white paper and put it on a flat surface. Then turn the mouse over and rub the mouse ball on it VERY vigorously for 30-60 seconds. If it still doesn't work try again for another 60 seconds. If you still don't have any luck then it's probably time for a new mouse.
