10.5.7 Broke my mouse

[buddhistgrandma]

This morning, before I updated to 10.5.7, my mouse was working fine. Then I installed the update, and it has not been working real well since. The mouse only actually works every 5 or 6 clicks. It wont select things until I spam click it. I tried the mouse on my other computer, and the mouse works fine there. Has anyone else seen this issue?

I'm running a Macbook, and my mouse is a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000.

Thanks.

Is this a Bluetooth mouse, or does it have a separate RF receiver plug? If it's bluetooth, you might try unpairing it (delete the entry in the Bluetooth manager), and then try to pair it again.

Its not bluetooth. Its has a RF USB receiver component to it.

Mine as well! It simply stops working all of a sudden and I need to use a wired mouse to click the bluetooth icon and choose "disconnect" and then again "connect" to the mighty mouse. Then it works fine ... for a day or so.

Same here. I re-paired the connection and it was fine for half a day but then it was time to go to work so I won't have a chance to see if the problem is permanently solved until I get back home on Wednesday.

Have you tried re-pairing the connection?

Mine was randomly losing its Bluetooth connection before the update and it's still doing it. Others on the forum have posted similar experiences.
