Goodbye Mighty Mouse
I had complained that my Apple Mighty Mouse could no longer scroll down and now it’s dead.
I had taken it to the Apple store in hopes they’d help. Instead they sent me to YouTube to watch a video on how to clean the Mighty Mouse. Well, I tried to open the mouse and ended up killing it instead.
The good news is I just got a new mouse on Ebay for $2 and I hope it’ll be nice.
It’s a Microsoft wireless laster 5000 mouse. Everyone says how good Microsoft mice are, so now I just have to wait for mine to arrive.
If you have an Apple Mighty Mouse that no longer scrolls down, start looking for a new mouse. Or, if your computer is still under warranty, take it back and see if they’ll replace it. It was never made to open up.

All you had to do was roll it upside down gently on a piece of paper or lint free cloth for a few minutes. Gets rid of all of the crap.

That so didn’t work. I tried everything before pulling it apart.
