I have a 2011 mac-mini which I had purchased from another user. Every time I boot the computer the trackpad works but the mouse does not work. I have to go to System Preferences and re-connect the mouse. This is very inconvenient as I prefer to use the magic mouse over the trackpad. I am not sure whether the system is looking for a differently named mouse of the previous owner. Kindly help.
Got a tip for us?

Go to Bluetooth Preferences and remove any mice entries you find there, then add your mouse at hand (you will probably need a borrowed wired mouse temporarily while you do this).
