The object being removal of Magic Mouse files , or what were -'Plists'- , pursuing a remedy for the continuing degradation in devices effectiveness .
Thank you , FRP .
Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.1.x), I like it
There are two other locations for Preference Panes
/System/Library/Preference Panes and /Library/Preference Panes
The items you are looking for may be in these folders and not ~/Library/Preference Panes which in mine is empty.
I am currently loathe to delete something not identified as a 'Plist' . If the Preference pane I saw in System Library is the only mouse file , the idea of it being rewritten when it is deleted gives me a pause . It is the consequence that I don't wish to mess with the "System" just an applications file preferences .
I suspect the whole library was hidden , but I selected the View Option show home Library negating that .
Thank you , FRP .
To enter in system library , click on finder > Go > Computer > Macintosh HD > Library > preferences .
In system library a Mac user must not delete any .plist files as it can corrupt the operating system .
To enter in user library , click on finder > Go > hold option key > click on library > in preferences folder you will find variety of .plists .
Deleting the .plist for related application may or may not work , you have to only consult apple support and take views from them which plist are to be removed and in what circumstances .
Just an example if mail application is corrupted if you delete com.apple.mail.plist , possibilities are there mail data could be lost .
Deleting of plist is not a guaranteed solution that will normalise the corrupted application .
Not messing with the System/Library files is a good decision. You can damage the OS if those files are deleted/changed.
So plist files are found in the Preferences folder not in Preference Panes.
Amen to that .
Preference Panes missing in Home folder Library
