Help with odd mouse behavior

[harsaphes]

Hey guys. So I have this odd problem. My logitech mouse will not let me single click a link. I have to click than click again or do a quick double click. I also am having problems dragging/selecting. These are all recent problems. I've checked my mouse settings and everything is how it should be. Any ideas? My mouse is a few years old and could be on its death bed?

click works on some links others not.

the microswitch on its last leg. If you can tinker something can still be done. Guess its time for a replacement.

wonder what you got for replacement...

The button is wore out. Call logitech support and they might send you a replacement. Otherwise you can attempt to fix it yourself by opening up the mouse and fixing it yourself, there are guides on the internet.

When I had mouse dragging/selecting problems it was because my wireless mouse was being buggered by all the other wireless things I had added over time. I had to switch to a wired mouse which I got to like a lot more.

I just managed to fix my double clicking M505! Like it so much that attempted to fix the left microswitch. So far it is working. And today I have changed them batts to lithium cells..... man it flies. With lighter batteries using the M505 is so much better. I do hope that I will get many more months of service out of the M505, they are no longer in the market on this side of the world.
