Hey, guys!

For the past few weeks I've been experiencing a very annoying problem with my Mac Pro. My left mouse click seems to work 50% of the time. Sometimes it just doesn't work AT ALL until I move the mouse away and then back onto the area I'm trying to click.

I've read a few forums online that suggest turning off Bluetooth, changing the double click speed to 'fast' and some have even mentioned that apps like Spotify can "eat mouse clicks". I don't use Spotify and I've tried the other two suggestion with no luck. I've even tried a fresh install of my OS and re-installed my drivers for my mouse and graphics tablet and the problem was still there.

I'm using OS X Yosemite, but also had this problem in the previous OS. The only third party apps I use are Adobe CC (Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects and Illustrator).

The issue is not only occurring using my Logitech MX Revolution, but also my Wacom tablet AND my wife's Mighty Mouse.

I'm sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, but I'm convinced it's not actually a 'mouse' problem as I'm having the issue with other clickable devices.

If anyone can help I would be super grateful. It's really starting to get old!

Thank you!
