Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

Apple is famous for its One Click Mouse "idea." For years, Mac-Heads like me had to make do with one solid mouse that clicks downwards. Wanna Right Click? Press Control first. This is fine once you get used to it. With the Mighty Mouse, Apple is basically admitting it got it wrong. You DO in fact need a right click, Apple says. But there's a big problem. This (still all solid) mouse is now able to be set up to right click as well. Oooh! Great...you'd ...
...shell, no buttons, trying to actually press the right area is a guessing game. A guessing game I'm losing. A lot. Now I spend half my time trying to right click, only to find I've ACTUALLY left clicked, and selected a link on the internet instead of getting a right click menu up, and now I've lost my Ciao review because I navigated away from the page by accident. ARGH! What's the solution? Staring at my mouse the way a bad driver stares at the dashboard ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

...mouse. And then hey presto Apple announces a two-button mouse with a scroll wheel. No doubt under pressure from the legions of apple "halo effect" convertees, who having said goodbye to windows and hello OSX, felt they still needed the comfort of a two button mouse. So what is it like? First of all I have to say is it is good to have two buttons again! Pulling up the menus of functions using the right click is useful. I had got used to not having ...
...shiny white plastic with small apple logo and the tiny small scroll ball (button). The clever bits. The mouse does not have two separate distinguishable buttons on the top. Your two fingers will sit either side of the scroll ball. Push with the left finger and you click as normal. Click the right finger and it pulls up the menus. So the mouse can tell which side you are pressing rather than have definite individual keys. Does the description sound ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

...it, all the mouse branded Apple in the years slid rigorously were fortified of an only enormous key and, in order to approach the classic menu to which the windows users they associate with much nature to "skillful key" it was necessary the combination of the key control (ctrl) on the keyboard and the click of the only key of the mouse on hand. Effectively this taken of position, above all in the last decade where I use it of the key "more and more ...
...not useful a lot the Apple customers in moving in the aforesaid ones menu (even if with practical the combination "ctrl-click" it comes enough natural) to advantage of a design to the vanguard that proposes an only auto body without the presence of some cut for the keys (the key is practically all the advanced surface of the peripheral one). That is the reason becaus the Mighty Mouse is revolutionary, not only aligns with the others mouse more programmable ...

...USB Optical Mouse £35 from Apple Store as of 5/5/07 20 times more sensitive to optical features than other optical mice. TIny central scroll button allows 360 scrolling - up/down left/right and diagonal. Touch-sensitive top shell - feels like older one-click Apple mice but by clicking the left part of the shell you get a left click, by clicking the right part of the shell you get a right click. Force-sensing side buttons - you have two buttons ...
...had a suite of old Apple macs with the older Apple Pro mouse. These were nice - a big chunky piece of acrylic that really filled your hand. I never suffered any problems when using these. You could rest your hand down on them when you weren't using them and the way they use the whole top of the mouse as the button meant you weren't putting excess stress on one part of the hand. They didn't have the right click functionality of other mice but you ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

For years Apple resisted introducing a two-button mouse claiming that they had not yet found a way to introduce a second button without compromising the looks of the device. Finally a few years ago touch-sensitive technology allowed Apple to modify it's existing mouse to include a second button. Dubbed the mighty mouse the device has two touch-sensitive areas that function as left and right mouse buttons as well as two programmable touch-sensitive ...
...compatible with Windows PCs and Apple Macs. =Design= The design is certainly stylish and in keeping with Apples other glossy white offerings such as the iPod and iMac. Although having said this, much of Apple's hardware designs now incorporate brushed aluminium and black glass which leaves this device looking a bit out of place. I guess the mighty mouse will eventually receive a makeover to conform with other products. This is a small nitpick though ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

The Apple Mighty Mouse is great mouse. Those that have been using the one button mouse and have longged for a right button will love this mouse. By looking at it it appears to be the same as the standard one mouse button with the exception of the track ball (not wheel). There is still only one physical button but the left and right hand side of the mouse is touch sensitve so it detects if the right side was clicked. However some mac users want to ...
...stopped scrolling up but the apple store was very happy to replace it and I had had it for a good 6 months.) Some sites suggest using a damp cloth and wipe the ball with that to bring the dirt out, doing this regualry will prevent it from becomming to dirty like mine did. The two side buttons are pressure sensitive. These only work for mac users, windows users do not get the added pressure sensitve side buttons. Although its 2 buttons, its actually ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

...After finally buying a used Apple PowerMac G4 Cube (one of my favourite Mac designs), I needed to buy a keyboard and mouse with it. The obvious choice was Apple's own Mighty Mouse (and keyboard, which I have also reviewed). Purchasing -------------------- I brought the Apple Wired Mighty Mouse from an auction site for under £25 (in new condition because the seller preferred his old MS mouse). It came in a nice simple white Apple box with images ...
...and shape to the old Apple Pro mice. However, instead os having a clear shell on top of the white plastic, it is all opaque white with an Apple logo engraved. From first glance, it looks like a one button mouse, with a small ball on the top. But, Apple have cleverly made it touch sensitive to simulate right clicking. There are also two side buttons which are customisable within OS X. Usage -------------------- The Mighty Mouse has a short USB ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

...might have guessed, i'm an apple fan. since getting my first mac last year i've slowly been intergrating myself into the brand and now i can't imagine ever going back. the mighty mouse is my latest acquisition, courtesy of a friend of mine, another mac addict. previously i was using a standard scroll mouse with a ball, which continually was clogged with dirt and felt grubby next to my shiny white mac. mm. in comes the mighty mouse. with it's glossy ...
...good looking at the same time - the way things should be. the number one advantage of the mighty mouse is the 360 degree scroll wheel, instead of being limited to up and down scrolling (how boring!) you now have the freedom to scroll wherever the hell you please. it feels good, people. additionally it's an optical mouse so the dirt clog is limited (altho obviously you can't eliminate it all together). the mouse retails at around £30 and is only ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

I got this mighty mouse with an iMac OS X. It;s beautifully made, and is a great touch to the feel of my computer. With touch sensitivity the mouse looks so simple (as there are no buttons). It's very easy to program the mouse on my computer. I can change what everything does. I can change where to click for the primary or secondary button (so it's great for left handers). I can also control many features of my mac with it. The scrolling ball in ...

I would highly recommend this mouse to anyone with a love of beauty and gadgets. (Or anyone else as a matter of fact). ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

The Apple Wired Mighty Mouse is definitely the best mouse that I have ever used. Beautiful to the eye on the design front, this mouse is simple yet packed with features. Many people assume that this is a single-button mouse, due to the visual lack of a second button. However, this is not true - the Mighty Mouse actually has 5 buttons that can be re-assigned to whatever the user wants! The multi-directional trackball is also a fantastic feature that ...
...as an additional button/ Used with a Mac, the two side buttons can be used to access Expose, and the traditional right-click can accessed through assigned by activating the right mouse button. I use the trackball as a button to also access the Dashboard function. Even though I use this with my iMac, I would highly recommend this mouse to Windows and Mac users alike - it looks perfect on your desktop, works perfect and is well worth the money! ...

The Mighty Mouse is an Apple product designed primarily for use of Apple Mac users for whom the standard single button mouse is insufficient. However it is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP.

In OS X the mouse is completly customisable, it has a left and right mouse button, as well as the 'nipple' having the ability to be pressed and side buttons which when squeezed together are another button. These buttons can ...

Review of Apple Mighty Mouse mouse

I use Apple computers for my design work, they are the best! The precision is better than any mouse I've laid my hands upon, it's accurate when you're like me dealing with images down to their pixels! The best thing about this mouse is how smooth it flows across your screen. You may be doing something precise (designing, editing videos, drawing) and then have to switch across applications for other purposes. It works absolutely great when you're ...

It's taken me a while to get used to all the different things this mouse can do, but now that I have I would recommend it to be a must have for all mac users, but I do feel that the price is a bit high for what it is and would wait till the price was a more reasonable amount. I've also found that the battery life with this mouse isn't very good, I seem to have to change them one a month which I feel is a little much. Not only does the mouse come ...
