HELP! Mighty Mouse amok!

Expand Post »

OK so I am "trying" to program my mighty mouse buttons - I accidently assign the MAIN button to "open Safari" - so NOW I can't select ANYTHING because the $%^& button only opens (and opens...and opens...) Safari
Finally had to plug in original idiot one-button mca mouse to get this far. SO: Q-
how do I RESET the mighty mouse??
Many thanks from Alaska

Re: HELP! Mighty Mouse amok!

After thinking about this for a while, why don't you turn on Mouse Keys? Plug in a mouse that still works, and enable Mouse Keys. Then, plug in the Mighty Mouse that doesn't work, and then use Mouse Keys to reprogram the mouse. Here is a screen shot of the System Preferences (Accessablity section):
