Q: El Capitan - magic mouse problems

Since I update to El Capitan, using Safari I lost the smart zoom function on my magic mouse. Another problem is the the scrolling between pages with one finger. The page moves just a little bit and then everything is blocked.

Anyone with same problems?

I have iMac 27" middle 2011, OS X 10.11.1, Safari 9.0.1

thanks

    Just to inform you I solved the problem!

    With the help of a second mouse, I deleted the magic mouse from he bluetooth devices list and then installed it again.

    Now everything is working well

    This solution didn't work for me.  Just to be clear on the problem, my Magic mouse stops scrolling after the computer is on for while.  Usually it happens after I leave the computer for a while and the external monitor goes dim and I need to retype my password to get back to the screen.  It happens regularly.  I'm running a 2016 (2nd gen) Macbook, El Capitan v 10.11.15, and connected to a Dell 27" monitor via HDMI (not that that should matter).

    If I restart the computer I get scrolling back for a while.  Deleting the mouse under blue tooth preferences and re-adding it like the previous post doesn't seem to work.  I've notice from other discussions this is a persistent problem in older version of OS X also.  El Capitan is the first time I've had the problem.

     

    Any ideas / suggestions?  Thanks.
