Hi List,
Myt Mighty Mouse (I know, yuck!) has developed a problem with the
little scroll ball. It will scroll UP, LEFT RIGHT but not DOWN. Any ideas,
or is it time for an upgrade? It would be a pity to trash the thing as it has
worked very well for me apart from some Bluetooth

Yes, I agree with Ruben, I wouldn't let battery life be the reason to
stop using the Mighty Mouse.
Our Mighty Mouse with the right batteries in it lasts for far longer

Only advantage with the Mighty Mouse is the buttons on the side to get

get a new one - mine similarly lost scroll(up) recently and was
replaced under warranty - no problem.
(it had to be replaced through an Apple service centre although I had
bought it from the on-line Apple store but that wasn't a hassle)
the fault _was_ terminal ie: restarts etc didn't fix
Mine does that on occasions, Clive. A vigorous clean of the scroll ball
with cotton buds and some alcohol (surgical spirit, isopropyl alcohol)
does the trick for me.
