Overview

Innovative Scroll Ball and button

Perfectly positioned to roll smoothly under just one finger, the Apple Mouse's Scroll Ball offers full 360-degree scrolling capability - up/down, left/right and diagonally. You can scroll long web pages, pan full-sized images, manoeuvre around large spreadsheets, control a video timeline and more. And you can even click the Scroll Ball to access your favourite Mac OS X features, such as Dashboard, Spotlight or Exposé.

Touch-sensitive top shell

It looks and feels like a sleek one-button mouse, but the Apple Mouse's smooth top shell hides a powerful secret: touch-sensitive technology under the shell detects which part of the mouse you're clicking, so you can both left click and right click. And if you prefer the simplicity of a classic, one-button mouse, the Apple Mouse is up to the task. Just use the Mac OS X system preference pane to configure it as you want.

Force-sensing side buttons

When you give the Apple Mouse a squeeze, force-sensing side buttons can be configured to activate Mac OS X features, such as Dashboard, Exposé or a whole host of other customisable features.

Customisable

If you have Mac OS X, the Apple Mouse can give you fingertip access to the special features that you love. Simply use the system preference panel to configure the Apple Mouse in the way that makes you most powerful. Control the Scroll Ball's tracking and click functions, as well as the right, left and side click functions. And you can even set up different mouse profiles for every user account on your Mac.

Optical Tracking

Powered by a precision optical sensor, the Apple Mouse provides responsive and accurate cursor movement on almost any type of surface - no mouse pad required.

    READ THIS if scrollwheel not working

    • Written by from Charlbury

    OK, granted, there is a flaw in the design of this mouse, but I bet 90% of mice problems can be solved like this:

    1. unplug the mouse from the keyboard
    2. turn it upside down
    3. roll the scrollwheel in all directions on a blank (clean) piece of paper, in all directions, for 60 seconds
    4. re-attach

    bingo! works every time. this is a good mouse in both OS X and Windows, I have used it for gaming and is excellent for browsing large webpages or large documents, with its 360 degree scrollwheel. although at times i want to get away from the mouse/keyboard combo (it is 2008 now, after all), at least this Mighty Mouse lessens the pain somewhat.     …More

    scroll wheel problems

    • Written by from NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE

    I like Apple products but I'm very unhappy with the scroll wheel problem on the so-called "Mighty" Mouse. I found that within a few months of getting my new iMac I lost use of vertical scrolling on the mouse and had it replaced. A couple of months further on and the same problem has occurred with the replacement. The 360 degree scrolling capability is a nice idea, but it has been poorly implemented. …More

    Scroll ball clogs

    • Written by from BRISTOL

    Works fine for a couple of months, then the scroll ball clogs up. You then need to crack it open with a screwdriver (forcing open not unscrewing), unscrew the scroll ball assembly, clean the minute rollers, put it all back together and super glue the base back on.

    Repeat this routine every 2 months (I've done it at least a dozen times). Helpful technical support people suggested buying a new one when I complained, and then put the phone down when I pointed out that this was rather an expensive option.     …More

    VERY BAD! - expensive, unreliable and cable ridiculously short

    • Written by from Frome

    I admire Apple tremendously and we have two MacBooks and I have an iPhone - all of which are great but having recently bought the mighty mouse for my new Macbook - I would completely agree with the other negative feedbacks here, basically: EXPENSIVE, UNRELIABLE AND CABLE RIDICULOUSLY SHORT!

    Recommendation: Buy something else (I'm choosing one of the better looking conventional mice, which is incidentally 1/3 of the price)     …More

    Apple Mouse Ball not working

    • Written by from Hampton

    This is a good mouse but I found that inverting it and rolling it around on paper does not always get the ball working. The ball would scroll up but not down. I asked the staff at the Kingston Apple store and they said they had the same problem.
    I read a suggestion to use a split drinking straw to clean the ball but
    I have just tried using a small artist's paint brush to clean the clearance space around the ball using isopropyl alcohol. I applied this fairly liberally and then inverted the mouse, rolled it around on clean paper and then blew it dry with a photo clean air can. It now works perfectly. Don't overdo the alcohol, though!
    I use this mouse for film editing in Final Cut and it works perfectly and is easy to use.     …More

    Put away the screwdriver!!

    • Written by from Aberdeen

    I love my Apple Mouse, wouldn't be without it.

    I just read a review on here suggesting that if the scroll ball stops working, you should prise it apart with a screwdriver =[ Step away from the sledgehammer, people...

    If the scroll ball stops working, you can make the perfect cleaning tool using a drinking straw and a pair of sharp scissors. Make two half-inch lateral cuts in the end of the straw so you have two tiny gutter-shaped pieces of plastic; bend one up out of the way. Use this tool to gently clean around the ball. You can dip the straw in nail varnish remover first if your mouse gunk is particularly gunky. Happy scrolling =]     …More
