Keyboard and Mouse preferences don't stick?

Greetings!



This is my first Mac - I'm happy as can be! It is a 24" iMac with the wireless keyboard and Mighty Mouse - I really enjoy using the buttons on the mouse to use Dashboard and Expose - but I'm finding that when I set the buttons to do these things in Keyboard and Mouse Preferences, they are constantly resetting to default? I have no idea why this might be happening?



I set the preferences - it works as expected for a few times and then, suddenly, when I press button 3 or 4 on the mouse, nothing happens. When I go into Settings to look, the buttons are back to default. I set them again, it works again, but soon enough ... back to nothing.



Anybody know why this is?



Thanks,

Wily

    Are you using Leopard ?



    I have the same problem with the Exposé and Dashboard shortcuts.



    I reported the problem to Apple before the release of 10.5.1, but the problem is still there.

    Yup - Leopard, with all the updates. It's been happening throughout ...
