This isn’t really about “photography” but a lot of photographers use Mac computers, so I thought I’d share this since it solves a MAJOR problem I was having with my Apple Magic Mouse (the original version).\"Apple<\/p>\n

I was getting really annoyed with the fact that my Apple Magic Mouse would intermittently stop working for a few seconds and then start working again. \u00a0It would drop its bluetooth connection, and then I’d have to wait a little bit and then all would be\u00a0ok, for a while. \u00a0I have another Apple Magic Mouse at my studio and it was having\u00a0the exact same problem!<\/p>\n

I just discovered the solution. \u00a0It turns out the design of the battery compartment is the problem. \u00a0(I have the original version where you have to insert batteries, not the new version that doesn’t use batteries, but instead is rechargeable.) \u00a0Anyway, the problem turned out to be an issue with the electrical contact the mouse was making to its batteries is not well designed. \u00a0It’s a little “loose”. So, I took some paper and folded it up and squeezed it in on top of the batteries and then pressed down the cover over it to make it a tighter fit, and that TOTALLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM! \u00a0Yay! I can’t believe I tolerated this problem for years and just now found the solution.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been having this problem, now \u00a0you know the answer! \u00a0I did this with my mouse at my studio and it fixed it there too!<\/p>\n

Happy mouse clicking!<\/p>\n
