Run "brigadier.exe" if you are on a mac or "brigadier.exe -m iMac19,2" without quotes on a pc (-m specifies the model's drivers to get.Open up the command line, navigate to the folder with brigadier.You just can't download them from the apple website directly. If your goal is simply to get the mouse up and running then Apple's drivers will work just fine on a mac or a pc running windows 10 for free. now what? Anybody with the tip to get my beloved MM2 to work on my Win 10 64bit machine? So now I'm sitting here, at my desk, with a MM1 and MM2, simultaneously (and consecutively) connected and working all fine and dandy EXCEPT for the frikkin' scroll on the MM2 whereas my MM1 scrolls just fine. It does, however, report two mice and two battery levels which is nice. Disabling Bluetooth Battery Monitor, thinking it may interfere somehow.But there's always that little spark of hope. Since my MM1 has a name like " " I even tried renaming the MM2 to " " on the MacBook and then going back to my PC, connecting the MM2 (solely) and hoping it would pick up the MM1's settings.(didn't change anything ofcourse)) I tried to go back to giving MagicUtilities another, rather reluctantantly, shot however: it won't install anymore: " The required Magic Mouse Driver installation failed. Since I've exhausted all of my ideas (I also tried looking at the registry to find differences etc. One, the MM1, shows " On Apple Wireless Mouse", the other, MM2, shows " On Bluetooth HID-device". When I go to the hardware tab there's a difference between both mice's "location". When the MM2 is the only mouse connected the tab disappears. When only the MM1 is connected and I open the Mouse settings it has a "scroll-wheel" tab. Here's some more of my findings:īoth mice connected doesn't seem to cause any trouble but, for every step above, I also tried with only the MM1 or MM2 connected. Uninstalled the driver manually, which failed for some reason on several occasions, but, a couple of reboots and "persuading" later I had my mouse (or mice) finally back to where I got started.īut, still, the MM1 scrolls just fine, the MM2 doesn't want to. It turns out MagicUtilities also installs a driver but doesn't uninstall it didn't remove it in my situation. On boot the mouse worked fine I could click and move it without issue until MagicUtilities loaded (in the taskbar). Even not after rebooting, again trying all of the above with pairing, unpairing, switching off and on etc. The pointer would jump instead of move with second+ intervals, the mousebutton(s) didn't react to anything.
