Can't right click

**Mareeps** · 04-19-2010, 08:23 PM

For some reason, I can't right click anything. I first noticed the problem when I tried to copy the URL for a video to put in a thread.

Does anyone know what's wrong with my mouse? I have a wireless mouse, and the left click and wheel work just fine.

Did you check the Mouse settings?

That's all I can think of.

**Mareeps** · 04-19-2010, 08:39 PM

Yeah, but the thing says "working properly"

**samejamesbond** · 04-19-2010, 08:48 PM

Weird...
You should ask Kong, he would be a much greater help.

Try rebooting.

**Mareeps** · 04-19-2010, 08:56 PM

Nope, still nothing.

Does the mouse button make a clicking noise like usual? If not then you might need to clean it. If something is lodged in there it can stop it from making the connection it needs. Probably won't help but it's worth a shot.

I hear a clicking sound, but nothing happens on the screen.

**Dudebro** · 04-19-2010, 10:11 PM

Well it could be busted. If you have another mouse just try that and see if the same problem comes up.

**Mareeps** · 04-19-2010, 10:15 PM

The only other mouse I have has its ball lost.

**Dudebro** · 04-19-2010, 10:28 PM

Well it's time to buy another one then.

**Mareeps** · 04-19-2010, 10:40 PM

That remings me...
I just found a mouse from an old 1998 computer that happened to have a ball in it. I'll try to see if that mouse will work tomorrow.

I would rather just use the keyboard than deal with the frustration of and old school ball mouse. Go buy a new good mouse, it's like 19.99.

You can still use it to see if the right button problem is from your computer or mouse.

I'll test to see if its the mouse or the computer, then run out and buy a new one soon.

On your keyboard there is a right click button, I think. On my laptop it has boxes with a mouse in the middle.

**Mareeps** · 04-20-2010, 04:20 PM

Well, what do you know, there is a right click key. Thanks Tails!

Can I get a lock now?
