THANKS! Turning the mouse off for a few seconds did the trick for me

Another trick is to turn the mouse off, then start it again and reconnect it.

I think on the whole the Mighty Mouse has proven to be one of Apple’s lemons.

My solution was to bring mine to the Apple Store and exchange it. Works perfectly now

Taking the batteries out for 20 seconds or so worked also for me. Thanks!

The first point about enabling in system preferences worked! Excellent advice, i’ve been searching everywhere on the internet and it didn’t hit me that it could be the solution until now, thanks.

The “lift your left finger” tip did it for me! Thanks!

Another sure way to have right click is to enable both the right click on the right side and scroll ball. This way it detect your finger faster.

And I thought it was just me. Thanks for the tips – I just got a new mighty mouse yesterday and had convinced myself that I needed to return it – I’ll try your tips first!

Thanks! Taking the batteries out for 20 seconds or so worked for me. Not being able to right click was driving me insane!
