Ball Cleaner?

But really, I thought the MM was optical. Maybe you should ask how to clean your eye....to which I will then reply....Eye Cleaner?

I think the OP means the scrollerballthing on top of the mouse? Possibly?

Best way is to turn it upside down and roll it on a piece of paper (apparently)

Scroll ball confused

I didn't have any problems with mine for about 7 months then it needed cleaning, I used standard glasses cleaner did the trick.

rubbing alcohol on a paper towel or towel turn the mouse over and scroll it. should work. works for my bt mm

I just cleaned my BT MM scroller ball by using the paper trick on a hard surface ..

Move the ball vertically with some pressure for like 30 to 45 seconds.. it worked..

Hold it upside down and wipe the wheel in all directions with a damp cloth. I use the one that comes with the iMacs and iPod touch. Do that for about 30 seconds and you're good to go.
