Pro mouse sucks ..
This mofo keeps on freezin and refusin to drag when I try to drag the mouse. I try on different surfaces, clean it, and I have to unplug it then plug it back in to get it to move again. Someone I'm talkin to had this problem. I'm complaining to Apple about this piece of sh*t.

What surfaces have you tried it on?
In college, when my desk would become cluttered, I'd put the keyboard and mouse in my lap and the pro mouse tracked perfectly fine on the leg of my pants.
Maybe you got a dud. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

Unnecessary, Tiger.
Please edit.
I get blamed by my parents too when Apple gives me a piece of sh*t mouse. Tired of it.
Oh, and if you consider the word "ass" profanity, then whatever. I edited it.
Take it easy on the mouse bashing. Its a good product. If you dont like it, its pretty easy to walk to a local computer or office store and purchase a new one for dirt cheap.

I hate to say it but I've had a couple M$ mice I've liked a lot, especially my current Trackball Explorer.

<strong>Oh yeah, I'ms supposed to spend $3000 on a computer and then need to go buy a new mouse to have it work again. That's it. You obviously don't understand. Not to mention how much APple charges just for them. I wouldn't buy another pro mouse. Your logic is flawed.</strong><hr></blockquote>
I've never seen anyone have so much trouble with a system as you... what the heck are you doing with that thing?
If it's faulty, have them replace it. Whining won't solve anything. If they tell you too bad, it's your problem... then you can come back in here and cry.
Sucks your mouse broke though.
Pretty much every computer has had things wrong with it. The G3 always froze, had other problems, and felt very slow. I'm typing this on it, and it's been working ok since I've gotten a new computer (the G4). What do I do to deserve it ? I guess that God doesn't want anything good for me. You can see it with everything....from school, computers, my girl.....like I'm not supposed to have anything good in my life. It's always taken away from me.
The keyboard broke earlier when Idid not even drink or eat anywhere NEAR the thing. Just stopped working. Keys wouldn't type, everything. I was blamed and shouted at for it. Had to go buy a new one.
Same thing with this mouse. It's been acting up and has been "jumpy" as an earlier poster described it.
I really need to get this fixed before morning somehow, or have it work, because I'm tired of going through the same motions. It will be "my fault", and I'll be cursed at etc. for this happening. Somebody please tell me how to MANUALLY TAKE IT APART. The chord doesnt seem broken....but maybe its been messed up because it twirls around. I have tried restarting the computer, replugging everything in again, to no avail. That pointer sits there at the top as I type this, not moving.
Also, I have an IRC chat client for X I d/l'ed called BitchX, so when my mom turns on the machine tomorrow morning she's going to see that and say "What is this you're putting on the computer?". If I could move the mouse I'd dump the file or hide it. But alas, can't do it can I?
I wish everything weren't doned on me, as "my fault". I'm tired of it. I not only deal with it from here, but at home as well. For once I'd like things to go right for me.

Flip your mouse over, and there should be a ring around the optical sensor. Turn this ring all the way to the right, until there is a plus sign in the small circle(look above the optical sensor.
