I have a wired mouse and when i first got it it worked fine. Then one day the scroll up mouse wheel stopped working. I tried many ways on which to fix it and to no succes. I really need help and need an answer.
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), No bluetooth devices
YES! Really useful turning it upside down and rolling it on a piece of paper i circles 🙂
Try this trick. It worked for me. 😉
Yes! That trick worked on a mouse I just ordered! Guess it was a used one!
I rolled it upside down on a piece of paper and had to press hard and do it several times.
Thanks a lot!

Probably needs a clean.

Good point!
I long ago gave up on Apple rodents and have for 3 years used a cheap Logitech B110 mouse, also from Amazon. Cost less than £10 and has never needed a clean!
This did the trick. Thanks!
You didn't mention what mouse you have. They're not all the same, some wear out faster. I'm using a Kensington Optical Elite which is inexpensive, programmable, and reliable. You can get one on Amazon.
My mouse does not scroll up, but it does scroll down
