My tracker ball Elecom bluetooth mouse has suddenly stopped working
No idea why - but I am unable to restore its operations
Any suggestions why ?

If I was half as smart as I think I am - I'd be twice as smart as I REALLY am.

    I've even tried connecting it via a cable - it is dead as a dodo

    You will have to pull it apart and see if anything is stuck down or possibly something shorting out the circuit board, it's all guess work from here, you will have to pull it apart and get testing

    No need - it's suddenly started working again !
    No idea why - perhaps it got bored ?
