Hi.

I have bought a trial of World of Warcraft, and to start my first quest, I have to right click on someone. When I try to click right with my mighty mouse, it just sends the left click signal.

Any advice or do I need to use a different mouse?

Go into System Preferences and the Mouse and Keyboard you can set the Right Click there

This happens to me too. What I suggest is that you do two things.

1. Hold the mouse so that you are using the upper portion of the mouse when you right click.

2. When you hit the right mouse button hold it instead of just clicking it.

That's the best advice I can give you. The right click works better when I do this.
 
enable it first in the system prefs. The to easily right click use your ring finger to click just above the right squeeze buton.
 
I had a problem where even after I set it in the preferences and I was physically looking at my hand to make sure I was right clicking properly it would still send a left click signal...This was when i first bought it so I was probably still just doing someting wrong because it has been fine since. But try resetting the mouse after you change the prefrences and see if that does anything...aka close the slider, wait for the bluetooth connection to be lost and then open the slider again.
 
1. Hold the mouse so that you are using the upper portion of the mouse when you right click.

i like holding the lower portion of the mouse, so i could never get used to right-clicking with my wireless mighty mouse. so i returned it and got a logitech mx revolution.
