MacBook USB ports not working properly

[Gilgolf]

When I plug a wireless USB receiver for my wireless mouse into my USB drive that mouse will sometimes jump and not work but if i push up on the receiver it starts working perfectly, any ideas on what to do, the receiver is about the size of a thumb drive. This just started recently.

It sounds like you have a faulty connection. I bought a cheapie usb bluetooth receiver that has similar issues. I ended up getting a new one and haven't had that problem since.

It does it for both my wireless mouses, these both work fine on another computer, what about the pushing it up part?
