Magic Mouse Lag and disconnection

10.11.5 MacPro 5.1 mid-2010

The offset of the mouse and the disconnection is so bad that I had to go back to a mouse that is causing a problem in my production. I'm a graphic designer and the need that the mouse. I tried all of the solutions I've read here and on the web without success. I'm going to buy a bluetooth adapter to see if that helps at all. Any suggestions on this dongle/adapter or if someone found a solution to this problem of bluetooth. I have new usb 3.0 devices and cables to come this week and as I read disconnection worsens with usb 3.0.

Anyone, please help before I have no hair left!

If your using a first generation Magic Mouse, the disconnection problem is sometimes caused by faulty battery contacts. Here's a solution:

  • Apple Magic Mouse question and Magic Keyboard 2 battery

    I have an iMac end of 2015 for Christmas and it came with the Apple Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Keyboard 2 I was wondering why I can see the State of my mouse, but I do not see the status of the battery on my keyboard?  Also, as of today, I had the computer for more than a month and have never had to recharge the keyboard or the mouse.  Now, my mouse is 17% but I did see battery messages and since I can't seem to get the status of the keyboard I think that I shall never see he or she only turns on when low.  The computer came preloaded with Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan and I have the latest update.  I've seen another post here batteries but they were old of machines to replace the batteries.  Anyone with any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Last Magic Mouse 2 is not compatible with the Mavericks 10.95 - and that stinks

    It is not so much a question as an expression of stunned disappointment.  My old mouse Magic went kablooey, and so I got a new.  Unfortunately when I the paired with my MacPro 2012, running the Mavericks 10.95 (sorry Apple, you have not matched the Mavericks speed and performance with Yosemite and El Capitan) I discovered that features the touch like scrolling and swiping has not worked.

    After an hour to read the little booklet that comes with the mouse, zap the PRAM, reset the SMC and usually ask myself? *  I watched the Magic Mouse box and found the answer in 3 grey dots on white type: requires OS 10,11 or higher.  All right.  Mea culpa, caveat emptor, blah blah.  I should have read through the entire page of the Magic Mouse on the Apple Store Web site, but I already have the product so don't figure there were many new take into account.

    However, it seems strange to me that a completely necessary peripherals does not work with a BONE from a few years ago.

    There are loyal customers (30 years of computer science and I have never used or owned a PC) who use your products as professional (I'm a sales manager of creation) and, for reasons that go beyond taste, prefer your earlier and faster OS.  Apple wants to move the herd along for many understandable reasons.  I do advertising.  I get it.  Offers new features and the "improvements" that Miss on users who refuse to put up-to-date is perfectly logical.  But prevents them from having a functional Apple mouse goes too far.  It will encourage strong armament and it stinks.

    In light of Apple's strategy, it seems pretty ironic that the same company that once derided the PC world as thinkers authoritarian group straight out of Orwell is curve at this level to get its users to conform to his version of the future.  What the * happened to "Think Different"?

    Good question, I guess, and I can only opine; as you know, we are here just volunteers.

    The question is... when a company changes its products.   As I see it, different operating systems have developed over the years at a huge pace, such that cannot not could be foreseen four years ago.   So the Magic Mouse 1 was fine for the moment but did not have the ability to adapt to meet the current needs.     So what does Apple?   It must be a new mouse that will respond to current needs and anticipate the needs for some time in the future.

    You can still buy the old MM1, although you might have to go hunting.   And of course, you can take the old one back if it was purchased less than 14 days ago in most countries and 28 days ago in the United Kingdom and most European countries, I believe.

    I hope you get over your troubles.

  • Magic Mouse Gestures of 2 does not

    Just bought a new Magic Mouse 2 and I can not get the options of "gestures more" appears for the new MM2 or "Point and click on.  As a result, cannot scroll or switch between applications.  Make a right click seems to work on its own, however.

    As soon as I reconnect my old magic mouse, everything to return to the menu options.

    I tried almost all the options to remove my old mouse completely and by adding a new to see if there was a conflict between the two.  However, the old mouse shows all options, but does not.

    Here are the only options I have for the new Magic Mouse:

  • Magic Mouse 2 is not scrolling

    I just bought a Magic Mouse 2, and when I drag my fingers on it as indicated to scroll, it does not scroll vertically or horizontally. I read the instructions, watched videos... nothing. Check the settings and everything. Please help me fix it!

    Hi there sepowers51409,

    Looks like your Magic Mouse 2 is not all scrolling when you drag a single finger upwards or downwards at the top of the mouse. First, I would check to see if, perhaps, the scrolling speed is set at a minimum, which could make it appear as if the scrolling does not work.

  • the magic mouse keeps disconnect

    Since I upgrade 10.11.5 OS, (iMac, retina-1 years material) my magic mouse keeps disconnect in the middle of my work - installed new batteries. And, when my computer is asleep, it is not wake up. Everything freezes. Any thoughts?

    The index is with your comment "of the new batteries installed.    Once you have upgraded to 10,11 El Capitan, there is a mouse specially designed for this OS.   It is not really spoken aloud, but the box for the Magic Mouse 2 has a clear statement to be for OS 10.11 (+).   As operating systems go for ever higher, it may make sense to buy new mouse because all subsequent operating systems will need the facilities of this new creature.    The old mouse will work to some extent, but not, it seems, 100%.

  • Magic Mouse guard disconnection

    Hello! Sorry if I am posting this in the wrong area and I can't find the section of the Magic Mouse.

    Anyway, when I use my magic mouse, at random times it disconnects. I did so many things that have been posted here on the forums and it still does not work. I even tried to restart the iMac and pressing Cmd, Alt, P and R, I heard the iMac from sound twice and tried will remove the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist but guess what? This file does not exist for me... I use OS X El Capitan.

    And Yes. My batteries are 94%...

    Can someone help me? I've been at this for hours!

    Thanks in advance!

    com.apple.Bluetooth.plist should be in the Preferences.

    You have any other features Bluetooh nearby that can cause interference?

  • the magic mouse disconnects regularly

    Since last week my Magic Mouse is losing connection with my iMac (OS X Sierra) pretty regularly--several times each hour, sometimes more often - the connection is only lost for 5-10 seconds, but it's a lot of time when you're trying to work. Anyone else had this problem and had been able to find a solution?

    If your Magic Mouse is version 1 (with batteries), it won't be to fully integrate with Sierra.   You can buy Magic Mouse 2 for that.   Because all future operating systems need, you may as well buy now.

  • The magic mouse disconnects all working

    Everything working on my Macbook Pro connection bluetooth magic mouse stops every now and then on his own. I have to wait a few seconds before clicking on, reconnect the mouse. It looks like a period of connection, but I can't find an entry in the system preferences, where I can fix this.

    Asked a solution in some Apple stores, a.s.o. iCentres, but nobody has an answer that solves the problem. Someone at - it an idea? The problem started with the implementation of Yosemite.

    As you have upgraded to El Capitan, you are unlikely to achieve the full functionality with your mouse A1296.   The magic mouse 2 has been designed to work with El Capitan and superior and is now generally available.
