I've had my iMac for almost a year now. It came with the wired Mighty Mouse, and now it's not working. I am back to using the mouse from my old PC. I,looked into the settings for the mouse in system preferences, and it seems that whatever the middle button(button under scroll wheel) is set to is what every button does, no matter what each individual button is set on. So if the middle button is set to Primary, everything button will be primary, etc . . .
Is there anyway I can reset the mouse, or reinstall the drivers for it, or something? This is driving me CRAZY!
By the way, I'm on Mac OS X 10.5.4 . . .
 
try going to preferences -> mouse and keyboard and see what you can do there, maybe change the batteries to a new pair?

if all else fails, reserve an appointment at the Genius Bar and see what they tell you.
 
Delete the mouse from the bluetooth devices list, change batteries, reboot computer toggle the bluetooth switch and re pair. Long, but just undo everything and reconnect everything.
