Apple Magic Mouse Calibration Left Click

This is my third Mac mouse. The preview two used Apple's clever, tiny roller ball. One was wired, the other wireless. They worked fine when new but over time the roller ball suffered as all mice roller balls due because of lint, dirt, dust, etc. They stops rolling. Worse, Apple's roller ball cannot be cleaned and eventually has to be recycled. (I took one apart to prove this to myself.) The new Magic mouse uses no roller ball. In fact it has no moving parts at all! No orifices to become clogged, no cleaning to do. Instead, it uses trackpad-like technology. Users drag one or two fingers across the surface for different scrolling effects, and click the left or right side for a traditional left or right click. The Magic mouse fits comfortably in hand and is delightfully handsome, just as you'd expect from Apple. It runs off AA batteries which appear to last longer. And, of course, it is wireless. Setup was easy and efficient. No surprise. The Magic mouse works flawlessly with or without an optical mouse pad and seems gentle on surfaces (should you be using a nice wooden desk, e.g.). My only complaint is the price. But you come to tolerate higher prices from Apple because their products are superior. And that, I figure, is only fair.

So far so good. A simple mouse (left and right click, and scroller) and it's working perfectly.

I have always used an Apple Magic Mouse. I also have used other mice at workstations from time to time. Never have I ever had a mouse fit so perfectly for my hand. Its just a natural feeling. Every other mouse now feels foreign and difficult after getting use to this mouse. I do miss some gestures from the Apple Magic mouse, but you can map the additional 3 buttons on the MX Vertical to do whatever you want. If your looking for a great mouse, you can stop your search here. :)

It may not be for everyone but it serves my purposes great. After using an Apple Magic Mouse for many years, not ergonomic by any means, it became all too clear I need something that was much easier on the hands and wrist. This certainly fits that bill. And having been spoiled by the functionality of the Magic Mouse I was looking for something that I could program. This meets that and more. The options are limitless. You just need to figure out what you do the most of and program those. In all I have 9 different functions programmed into the mouse. A great mouse if you are looking for ergonomics and functionality.

I first bought the Apple Magic Mouse. It was not at all what I expected. I'm sure it is a good mouse, but not worth nearly $75 dollars. Part of the magic is that it doesn't have a roller for scrolling... it uses your finger across the top of the mouse instead. I prefer the roller. I set the Apple Magic Mouse at the fastest speed, and it was still too slow. I had to move the mouse across the entire pad to get the curser to move a few inches. The MS Surface Mouse performs great, feels comfortable in the hand, and at a good speed.

I've used track balls, wired and wireless mouses. The Apple Magic Mouse is bluetooth, which is quite nice! It's like a mouse and trackpad combined, which has been quite pleasant to use. My only issue is sometimes I end up flying across an Excel spreadsheet with a slight finger twitch. Still severe muscle memory using older devices. Other than that, I really like this magic mouse!

I bought this one after my old unit left click bottom left key broke, Kensington doesn't provide spare parts (!). Anyway, it lasted quite a few years. It's very ergonomic, especially when using the supplied palm hand. The ball is large and runs very smoothly, with practice it's fast and accurate and far better than a mouse. It's very good for the wrist as just 2 or 3 fingers do the job without the need to move your hand at all. The scrolling wheel works great and the software offers many different ways of setting the buttons activity, even differently for specific applications. The USB and Bluetooth connectivities work fine, in this new version the trackball will go to sleep after a while without activity. Pressing any button will bring it back. This wireless version, although far more expensive, is more comfortable to use than the wired one. The life of the left click button will be extended forever if you set one of the spare buttons to double click. It's the most expensive compared to others but it's a good investment as it will last for a very long time and it works smoothly and very effectively. I always wondered why most people prefer a mouse instead of a trackball.

This mouse is accurate, easy to grip and click on the right and left mouse buttons. It is light, moves easily and the charge lasts a fair amount of time. I like the ongoing support, i.e. updates. Finally, the multiple connections modes (bluetooth, cable, wifi) make it a good mouse in different locations.

The Apple Magic Wireless Keyboard w/ Numeric Keypad is one of the best keyboards I have owned. It is very slim and feels reminiscent of the MacBook Pro I used to own. I love having the numeric keypad off to the side, as I use it a lot. Battery life is amazing. When I first got this one, I had forgotten to turn it off at the end of the day and left it on for a few days straight.....only to find that it still has battery life left. It charges quickly, with the included cable, and syncs automatically without requiring you to go through the normal steps like you would bluetooth ear buds or something. The only thing I wish the keyboard had - that it doesn't have - is backlit keys. I'm sure there is an aftermarket option somewhere that would offer the backlit keys, but this one fit my budget and is a very solid keyboard.

This is far superior to the Apple Magic Mouse. Although it is larger it has great connectivity, is customizable, has great tactile feel and actual buttons. Color is complimentary too the MAC desktop.
