    When do you charge your Magic Mouse and Keyboard?

    My previous Intel-based iMac used a keyboard and mouse that used batteries. My new 24" M1 iMac of course has the wireless Magic Mouse and Magic Keyboard. I'm just wondering if it's best to let these devices completely go dead before charging? What do most people do? Share them at 50% or let...

    Unacceptably terrible bluetooth performance.

    I know this is a known (and apparently longtime) issue, so I'm just adding my voice to the chorus. My M1 Mac mini was returned yesterday due to the unacceptably poor wireless mouse and keyboard performance. I feel bad for anyone getting their first Mac + Magic Keyboard & Magic Mouse thinking the...

    iMac suddenly lagging for short periods of time, but very frequently. How can I diagnose the issue?

    2019 iMac 5K on 10.15.7. This started within the last week. I notice it primarily when my cursor starts to lag around the screen. Can't be an issue with the mouse because it happens with my trackpad as well (these are the official Magic Mouse/Trackpad). I've tried watching the Activity Monitor...

    Every night around 9:30-10pm, iMac Magic Mouse starts lagging - Odd phenomenon

    I can't quite explain this bizarre situation for the past 5, 6 nights in a row now (and happening as I type). My older 2012 Mac - bluetooth mouse runs perfectly fine from the time I wake up around 7am until around 9:30, 10pm...and like clockwork when I notice the bluetooth Magic Mouse begin to...

    Mouse tracking speed unstable, Catalina 10.15.5 (MacbookPro 2020, 16")

    Ever since today's update to 10.15.5, magic mouse tracking speed becomes insanely fast after Sleep. If changed to normal speed, it is insanely slow after restart.

    MP 7,1 Magic Mouse 2 constant lag on the new Mac Pro (2019)

    Hi there, Anyone else having issues with their Magic Mouse 2 on the new Mac Pro (2019)? It's pretty often that it disconnects or lags on my end. Reseting PRAM, SMC and reinstalling the system did not help. Any other suggestions?

    MP 1,1-5,1 Magic Mouse BTLE Trouble on 10.14.6

    I have an updated BTLE/WiFi card and extended the internal antenna. But BTLE range has always been poor on this computer. No problem with keyboards and Magic Pads, but Magic Mice seem to have issues. In general, things have worked ok. But since 10.14.6 my Magic Mice connections have become...

    Best Magic Mouse alternative

    Hi I'm planning to buy a mouse for my MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports). What kind of mouse should I buy? I'm thinking of buying a magic mouse 2, but I feel it a bit flat. Is it customary or should I switch to another mouse? Razer deathadder elite size is about what's...

    Wired Magic Mouse Style Mouse Alternative?

    I love my Magic Mouse, but unfortunately my new monitors are causing bluetooth interference with it, and this results in choppy mouse movements etc. I also have a cordless phone for business that is at my desk and it's possible that it too, or the combination of both is causing the bluetooth...

    Magic Mouse unstable after connect an external SSD

    My magic mouse is totally unstable after I inserted an external SSD in the USB3 with the HighSierra. The cursor does not move sometimes. I have to keep it near the machine (Mac Mini Late2012). I already moved the SSD from far away of the magic mouse and I also disabled the "Allow Handoff between...

    Magic Mouse 1 tap-to-click

    Dear folks, I got a second hand magic mouse to use while I am not very comfortable with trackpad in library but I just found that there is no tap-to-click option with magic mouse while there are a lot of third party apps. So my question is can I use terminal commands to add tap-to-click on my...

    Magic Mouse 2 is crap

    I bought an iMac a week ago and it came with a Magic Mouse 2. The design is attractive and I like that it has some features of a trackpad as well however the build is crap. I'm not sure if the top is made of glass or plastic but whatever it is it's a scratch magnet... You don't see the scratches...

    Chrome back/forward gestures not working with Magic Mouse

    In OS Sierra, I was able to use my first gen Magic Mouse to go back and forward in web pages in Google Chrome. Ever since updating to High Sierra that feature has stopped working. I checked my Mouse settings and "Swipe between pages" is still selected. Anybody else having this issue or have a...

    2017 iMac 5K BT problems

    I’m writing this from my iPad Pro because this has gotten so bad. My work 5K iMac is having some serious problems with Bluetooth. I tried disconnecting the keyboard and reconnecting it. I tried turning the mouse off and back on but have had problems before my last reboot. It first started when...

    Magic Mouse Buying Guide

    Hi, Since there is no accessories buying guide, I wanted your opinion on a new version of the Magic Mouse. I have a v.1 that I bought when it came out. It starting to be tired. The rails are almost completely wear out, there's aluminum paper on the battery contact and the aluminum on the side...

    Who Actually Likes the Magic Mouse?

    Either version. I ask because it's been my favorite mouse for eight years, but I often hear people complaining about the ergonomics. I don't try to rest my palm on it; I just hold my hand as if it were more rotund and drag it around. I've never had any issues with it at all. So, vote and feel...

    Magic Keyboard/Mouse 2 with TB MBP

    Pairing the first time was somewhat seamless (not as seamless as it was on my MBA). Sometimes it takes a while for my devices to connect to my Mac. In the Bluetooth window, it doesn't show either device as connected, even when they're on and connected directly to the Mac (USB C to lightning). I...

    External Keyboard & Trackpad/Mouse Needed—6 Potential Setups, What's the Best?

    I'm a long-time MBP 15" user who wants to work less with the notebook itself but more with an external keyboard and screen. One thing I realize is that I am way slower with the combination external keyboard and a dirt-cheap mouse. Before I could move both hands from my internal keyboard to the...
