magic mouse jumpy/lag/stutter/glitchy (macbook pro)
I just recently brought a Magic Mouse from the mac store, and I'm about to take it back. I've seen lots written about similar problems, jumpy/lag/stutter/glitchy mouse, but none recently that I could find. And none that have fixed my mouse.
The Problem:
My mouse is often jumpy, unresponsive and unusable. It jumps across the screen, either laggy or in a stuttering motion. I will then use the trackpad since I cant use the mouse and the trackpad works perfectly. So i know it's not a process running, or the laptop running slow.
It will sometimes work if it's just been sitting there a long time, like if I come back in the mornings it may work well for about 10-15 minutes, but then stop.
What I've tried: (With no luck)
- Multiple services, the desk, books, mouse pad etc.
- Changing batteries
- I even tried a trick of putting paper between the batteries because apparently the connections are bad and can cause the mouse to disconnect.
- I upgraded to the mac beta testing OSX, someone had tried that and it worked for them, it did not for me.
- One guy slams the mouse on the table and it fixes it... I didn't want to try that.
- I have compressed air, cleaning out the sensor etc.
- Having the bluetooth forget the device then reconnecting it
- I've also connected other bluetooth devices and had no issues in the past
- Resetting the pram and smc
- Prayed to Lord Jobs offering a sacrifice
My Macbook Pro:
Yosemite 10.10.3
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011)
2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6750M 1024 MB
I like the look and feel of the mouse, and when it works it's great, so I hope i'm not forced to get some ugly logitec mouse or something...
