Does Anyone Know What Might Be Going On With My Mouse?


I've been having problems with my mouse today.  When I right-click to copy, nothing's happening.  If I can get it to copy and click to paste, it doesn't want to do it.  I've taken it apart and cleaned it.  Maybe it's wearing out??

Sandy, have you tried rebooting your computer?

I've at times had that type of a problem with the mouse or my keyboard and a reboot fixes it.

If not, then I'd guess it's wearing out. But Web is the authority on all things computer.

Don't listen to him. no.gif

The first thing I'd do is double check the plug to make sure its in all the way.

Next I would try is rebooting the computer and make sure its not just a software/memory problem.

If that still didn't fix it, I would buy a new "Kensington Orbit Trackball" Model #64327 and be mousing more comfortable ever after.

But thats just me.

Thanks guys!  It's plugged in all the way (I checked that after I cleaned it) and I tried rebooting last night, but that didn't fix it either.  I tried to copy,paste this morning but it still doesn't want to work, so I guess I'll have to get a new one.  That's a pretty nifty one you suggest Web!  I'll see if I can find it here.  Thanks!!smile
