Mighty mouse scroll ball

Nature Boy · 2007-02-07 18:19:54

Hi, I'm having trouble with my Mighty mouse. At the moment I can't scroll down but I can scroll up and sideways. The ball doesn't make that clicky noise when I scroll down so I think it might be dirt caught in it. This wouldn't be the first time it's happened, but it's the longest time it has happened for! Has anyone else…

Hi,

Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Happens on mine all the time. Thankfully a bit of cleaning always fixes it. I make of point of cleaning it every week now even if it doesn't need it, just to be safe. They don't last long I'm afraid.
