Dang, dang, dang. My wireless mouse isn't working correctly.
The scrolling wheel works just fine, but the mouse won't move the curser. Grf! I hate using the touchpad. Slows everything down. x(

1. You can't reset it?
Mine acts weird sometimes and I have to reset it. Or could it be the batteries?

3. I've tried resetting it, and I just recently changed the batteries.
Maybe I'll change them again, in case I got a bum pair.

4. Actually, I did change them recently, but I'll change them out again
Batteries are usually the first thing I check when it starts acting weird, but since I had recently changed them, I didn't think that was the problem.

5. They should have them with rechargable batteries, where you put it on
a corner of a USB powered mousepad to keep it charged.

6. Actually, there are some like that.
It would be great to have one like that -- I go through batteries like crazy with this thing.

7. Ah. I've never had a use for a wireless mouse, since I always use it in

close proximity to the computer, and have heard lots of complaints about the batteries, so I didn't know those were available.

9. Hey Peggy!
Thanks. It's actually working now. I hit the reset button on the mouse and the piece that plugs into the USB port a bunch of times, and finally it's working.

10. Good news
I've fallen in love with mine, I buy a huge pack of energizers just to make sure it always works.
