A simple fix for Mighty Mouse right-click issues
Authored by: scotty321 on Feb 04, '09 08:04:04AM

The right mouse button on the Mighty Mouse won't register a click if your finger is lightly resting on the left mouse button. So all you need to do to remedy this is:

LIFT UP your index finger from the left mouse button while clicking on the right mouse button with your middle finger. It's as simple as that.

Agreed. By design, the mouse seems to ignore right clicking if any finger is resting on the left half. The parent is right - the solution is to lift it. Not really sure why the hint insists on using the index finger for both sides.

ditto this advice. Using one finger for both buttons is a bit ridiculous.

mine works when both fingers are touching left and right. you just have to click far to each side.
