My Magic Mouse (perhaps 4 years old), has been acting funny for a whlie. I'll click the left button, but it sends a "right click" signal to the computer (late 2011 15" MBP). I try changing my hand position -- nothing helps. Sometimes it doesn't scroll. Sometimes when I've got my hand on the mouse, all the windows are revealed on the computer, as if the mouse sent some signal.

Often if I turn the mouse on and off it will work for a few minutes or an hour. But it's driving me nuts.

I've played with the system preferences, changed the battery, cleaned the sensor/laser.
I have some other Bluetooth devices around -- iPhones and a Mac Mini. Could these be causing interference?

If I decide to just replace the thing, do folks suggest the MM2? Or a similarly priced Logitech?
