Stops working right click magic mouse

In the last two weeks, the secondary click takes a while to start working.

It is always checked as enabled in system preferences.  If I uncheck and then save, it works.  But I don't know if that's really fix something, or if the problem resolves itself during the time it takes to open system preferences.

I have an iMac 2011 El Capitan 10.11.5 running.

Have you noticed that since you went to El Cap (10.11.5)?   Or does it work properly for some time and then deteriorate?

    Sorry, there was an error.

    ... already I activated UAC and I also tried the windows features turn on or off technique

    It's good to hear. I have collected a number of more complex solutions proposed for this problem with the Google desktop gadgets and grouped into a command line (.) CMD batch file) that can run on any Windows 7 user with access to the administrative credentials (e.g. username and password).

    If you want to try an automated process to repair your Google desktop gadgets, first create a restore point. I ran more than 30 times the script batch file on 3 different computers to Windows 7 with no ill effects, but I can't be responsible for your.

    The file is on my SkyDrive. If you want to use it to repair your gadgets, Google desktop, or simply look at the batch file to your organization, click here. A complete list of the actions of the command used is available at the bottom of this post.

    Click on the document on the left to start your download. Select Save in the download file - security warning dialog box and save it on your desktop when the dialog box record under is displayed. This is a small file and should take more than a few seconds.

    While you wait for a few seconds, close all running programs in order to have a blank desktop.

    When download is complete, look for the FixMyGadgets icon on your desktop and right click, then select run as administrator to obtain elevated privileges. Provide administrative credentials if requested. It cannot perform certain tasks without high Privileges.

    When the batch file runs, it presents a chance to stop the automatic repair procedure. Press Ctrl + C and then confirm to stop the batch here or press another button to let the process go through.

    When the process has traveled, read the connected. TXT file and note its location (or record under). While you should be able to immediately charge your Google desktop gadgets, I recommend you to restart the computer so that Windows can rebuild your default Internet Security Zones. When the computer restarts, you can immediately repopulate your Google desktop gadgets.

    Hello

    You have discovered a problem with Windows 7. To resolve this problem, I recommend a program called FileMenu Tools. You can download the portable freeware from here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/System/System-Enhancements/FileMenu-Tools-Portable.shtml .

    After having downloaded and installed the program, you will notice that, by default, each option is checked. I would be much more selective on this subject, otherwise your context menu will be a full page long! When the main window opens, you will see a list on the right side of all the elements that can be added to the context menu. Start weeding through the list and every one to take away, you don't need the United Nationsby checking the box.

    Once you have completed your selection (de-selections) make sure that you click the green check mark in the row of icons at the top of the left window of the interface to 'Apply' of your choice. The program can do much more, but that answers your specific question. I am told that the program has a good help file, so try here if you are interested.

    Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Kind regards

  • Qosmio X 70: TouchPad stopped working after using a mouse

    I have a brand new Qosmio X 70 for about a week.
    In the early days I used it without any accessories and the TouchPad worked well. I got the mouse settings in the control panel and was able to activate a few gestures more which is the default value. I also checked the option saying something like "disable touchpad when mouse is plugged in.
    The next day, I was sitting at my desk and plugged a mouse into one of the USB ports.

    As expected the 'disabled' on the touchpad indicator was lit. Maybe it's that this indicator has disappeared after a while, but I didn't notice then. However, the next day, I tried to use the laptop without the mouse but then I discovered that the mouse cursor was no longer visible and the TouchPad was totally insensitive. The indicator was black.

    I also noticed after plugin a mouse back in the PC, control panel of the mouse in the control Panle does not display the tab 'Device settings' more... It's like the TouchPad no longer exists. Curiously, the key "Function" to toggle the TouchPad is pretending it's something when you press but has actually no effect.

    How can I get my rear TouchPad?

    Happy to know that everything is OK again.
    Thanks for the comments.

  • If a mouse stops working, the device icon mouse disappears - Windows 7

    If a mouse is dead, the device icon smile disappears from the window of computer peripherals.

    In addition, after that buy us a new mouse the computer recognizes the new device and automatically download the software.

    I ran a Logitec wireless mouse and will be replaced by another wireless mouse.  Is Logitec a good brand

    I think that it would disappear of devices

    He would be replaced by an unknown device

    That there are good and bad features usually why I don't bother with Wi - Fi those

    Some just hit a price target.

    I use the mouse to play red dragon and have no problems with it

    It comes with a cd of drivers Wi - Fi and 40. we

    Some do not, and yes it takes a bit for windows install base driver.

  • WHEN I CLICK MY MOUSE RIGHT IT WON'T SAVE - AS?

    When I go to save a picture or file, I right click the mouse and nothing happens, nothing comes on the screen why?

    Suggestions:

    1. If this problem is not too long, and if your restore points include a date when you did NOT have this problem, please do a system restore.
    Choose this date as your restore point.

    Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
    To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

    2. If the #1 is not possible, please make a System File Check. It is to find corrupted files and try to fix them.

    Start button > Search box type cmd > look up, do a RIGHT click on cmd.exe > click run as
    Administrator
    > in this window cmd black and white, type at the prompt flashing sfc/scannow > press the ENTER key.
    Note: there is a space between
    'sfc' and ' / '.
    To sit and wait. It will take time.
    When finished, exit the cmd window.

    Hello

    If you have a USB mouse wired and keyboard connected to your computer, and that they do not work properly, please check following things:

    1. Firstly, plug the USB into a different port on your computer. If they still do not work...

    2 try them on another computer! and if the problem is still there, it would be easy for you to just replace. But is not likely to result in the mouse and the keyboard does not at the same time!

    2 and if it's OK with another computer, which would be something wrong with your computer, and it could be from a hardware or software.

    Just see how it is done up to now.

  • MX922 Scanner has stopped working all of a sudden.

    I have a Canon PIXMA MX-922 and the scanner has stopped working (right in the middle of something important). It worked fine for two years, now it's kaput. It prints well on USB.

    I googled this and see a lot of similar questions but nothing I tried works. I have re-installed the software from scratch, and the printer works again, but not the scanner.

    When I run the scan of the machine, it says "Processing, please wait momentarily", then simply, it stops and distillers he make fun of me...

    When I go to the computer, it starts up fine, sucking the document in the scanner, then it breaks down.

    Hi williampeck1958,

    To see if the scanner can scan all of the computer, I would like you try and scan from the Microsoft Paint program.  To try to scan from Microsoft Paint, follow these steps:

    1. go into your START Menu, select all PROGRAMS, then ACCESSORIES, then MICROSOFT PAINT.

    2. Once inside the paint, in the upper left corner you will see a blue square. Please click on this and select FROM SCANNER or DIGITAL camera. A window will appear asking you what device you want to use. Please select the PIXMA MX922, and then press the OK button.

    3. in the next window, you must have the ability to select a type of document; Please select one, and then press the SCAN in window.

    Have you been able to properly analyze using Microsoft Paint?  In addition, you are able to make a copy directly from the unit successfully?

    If it is a question of time-sensitive, additional support options are available to contact us.
