The Magic Mouse connects to computers via Bluetooth, but it only works with Apple computers running Mac OS X version 10.5.8 or later, and you must install the Wireless Mouse Software update 1.0. The Apple Magic Mouse 2 is a good mouse for traveling. Its compact design easily fits in almost any laptop pouch, and it supports Bluetooth, so you don't have to worry about carrying a receiver or cable. It also has great build quality and should be able to survive being dropped a few times. Your device isn't recognized by your Mac. Follow these steps if your mouse, keyboard, or trackpad. Bluetooth technology Magic Mouse works wirelessly with your Bluetooth-enabled Mac. When you combine it with the Apple wireless keyboard, the result is an untethered and uncluttered workspace. Once you pair Magic Mouse with your Mac, you can enjoy a secure and reliable connection from up to 33 feet away.

Although they are kinda spendy, Apple hardware is great and I really like the buttonless, bluetooth Magic Mouse. I started using one with my Windows laptop and was surprised at the lack of info on the interwebs about getting the scrolling to work. Found some paid software for full support but, come on, it’s just a mouse driver.
Turns out its really easy:
0. Just download, extract and run this file. Or if you’d rather download the executable from Apple instead of me (no hard feelings), do this:
- Bounce over to Apple and grab the Boot Camp Support Software. As of right now, the latest 64-bit version is here. Or you can check about halfway down this page and grab other versions from the table.
- Extract the ZIP file you downloaded, the mouse driver is in the BootCampDriversApple folder and called AppleWirelessMouse64.exe – just extract and run it.
Apple iphone application. Also, in there are Windows drivers for just about every other Apple peripheral, yay!
If you want to use the Apple Magic Mouse in Windows 10, you should download and install the Magic Mouse driver for Windows 10. And this post will show you how to download and install the Magic Mouse driver for Windows 10.
