Alternative mouse for my Macbook Air

gino_76ph

Hi there!

I have bought a wireless "magic mouse" for my MBA last May and now its not working. Even if i put brand new batteries it simply wouldn't work. Came to a conclusion that it is now defected.

Any suggestions for an alternative wireless mouse for my Mac?

I spent some time researching this mouse a while back and it gets bad comments for the battery life. It's a lovely looking thing though.

This may be a stupid question, but have you tried re-pairing it with the mac? Magic mouse is just a bluetooth device and if it ran out of battery it may have forgot its pairing key.

i like the Logitech ones with mine.

But test the batteries and have a play first. I have a magic mouse and they do go through batteries (I never turn it off, which does not help). Un-pair and re-pair (is the green light underneath coming on?)

Take the mouse and laptop into an Apple store and see what they say. There staff are very helpful.

Took a new pair of batteries didn't helped. Re-paired it didn't helped either. Rung Amazon told them it was (after doing all the test) a defective mouse. Asked me to return it and i will get a full refund. That helped.
