Magic Mouse will not scroll

After updating the recent security update my magic mouse will not scroll or swipe between pages. It will however swipe between spaces and navigate the screen without issues. Is there some setting besides the mouse pane in the system prefs I am overlooking?

Ok so are you using 10.8.5 or reverted to 10.8.4?


If so did you experience this problem:


1,(in 10.8.4 initially) 2,(in 10.8.5) 3,(only now)?


All I can say is if you have backups to go to

Macintosh HD>System>Library>PreferencePanes>Mouse.prefPane

and save this prefPane to your desktop from the last state that was trouble free.


Then go back to that file in current state and trash or drag the saved prefPane onto and save when prompted.
