Reviews for Apple Mouse

At some point it becomes harder and harder to use the scrolling ball even after spending hours cleaning it.
The plastic at the bottom erodes very quickly and moving horizontally is not as smooth.

This mouse has been nothing but a nightmare. Each lasts for a few months, but now I'm onto my second replacement (third mouse).

The dirt/roller ball issue happened the first time. Now, the replacement mouse is constantly going to Expose, not allowing me to work in the window I'm using, and the buttons often send a command for one of the other buttons when pressed. Apple - after all these reviews, how can you keep manufacturing this mouse?

The little scroll ball broke less than 6 months after purchasing this mouse. Don't waste your money.

A have both wireless and USB versions.

Beside scrolling issues there are much more:

The ergonomic is really poor, it is too small and the shape is awful. It feels unnatural and Apple coming back to the stone age with this product. Your hand will get tired working with this mouse really fast.

The functionality is also really bad. There is no right or left button and mouse is always guessing what button did you really press. I have to lift my fingers to make sure I press the right side... There is also something about clicks - they are dumb slow, some times you click but click never happens... I have to click twice, it drives me nuts!!!

I'm using Microsoft Ergonomic Wireless mouse with my iMac now, it is sooo much better...

Quite simply this mouse scroll button does not work.
I have had my new iMac computer with the really big screen for less than a year. A working scroll button is essential to help navigate around this huge screen. I work at a college and others are reporting the same issues and have used, in some cases, 3 mice all with the same issue. I expect more from Apple.

This is most unreliable and undependable mouse I've ever used. It scrolls only occasionally, and has the most annoying habit of bringing up the widgets when I don't want them. I am really, really disappointed with this product--I often feel like taking a hammer to it. YUCK.

Apple could not conceive something as simple and basic as a computer mouse. Someone let the Apple engineers and Steve Jobs know that not everyone has a hand the size of an Oompa Loompa and we prefer our purchases to be functional for AT LEAST a few years before having to replace them. The track ball in this thing is pitiful. And I tried the other touch mouse Apple just released. It seems to work better but it's still TOO SMALL. Your hand/wrist should not be killing you after a half hour of use.

Scroll ball stuck. I don't care if there is a fix. I shouldn't have to do it... my Logitech and Microsoft mice I have don't have this problem. Hey Apple, next time, don't "reinvent the wheel" when the wheel works just fine how it is.

I was bidding on an auction on eBay for a thermal shirt so I could play tennis in the cold without freezing in the ~40°F, but right when I went to place the would-have-been-winning-bid, the mouse thought it was going to be funny, and stopped scrolling and tracking, and now I have to play tennis in the freezing cold weather today with any real protection from the cold, thanks to Apple.

I wish I could meet the person who made this insult to technology.... >:(

I will only be buying my new MacBook Pro during the 2010 refresh and I'm done with Apple's peripherals.

Plainly put, this is a pretty package that worked well for 6 months before the ball stuck. No amount of compressed air, blowing cajoling worked. Look elsewhere for a good mouse.
