Yesterday I experimented the HellBug of Magic Mouse losing tracking, same simpthons posted here by N guys as me (no tracking, or choppy, but scroll, click OK).

I Ran OS/X Yosemite 10.10.1

After trying every Apple suggested solution (SMC, PRAM reset, disabling Wifi, turn-off every near bt device, etc) I decided to start unistaling suspicious Apps, VirtualBox 4.3.20 wich I just instaled yesterday was my first suspect since it works with mouse capture, and woala, after uninstall it, my magic mouse works again.

These are all the step I do to solve:

1 Reboot with command-control-power btn

2 Enable Accessability MOUSE KEYS (google it)

3 mount VirtualBox Installer DMG

4 Enable Unsigned Apps To Run (from this point magic mouse tracking returns).

5 click the virtualbox unistaller

6 Reboot

7 Enable Signed or App Store Only apps to run

That's all, now my magic mouse works as ever.

Its very likely this bug to affect Magic TrackPad users too.
