PLEASE REMEMBER THAT, ACTUALLY, YOU MUST CUT THE RIGHT SIDE BECAUSE YOU WORK ON THE SHELL IN AN UPSIDE-DOWN POSITION!! It seem I was right but don't ask me why because I'm a software engineer, not an hardware one.īecause a picture worths more than 1000 words, I uploaded a picture where is easy to see the parts I cut away circled with a black mark. I tought that lowering a little the surface that get the electrical charge of the finger, could decrease the sensitivity of the system for the right clicks so, to diminish the sensivity of the right part of the mouse, I cut away with a sharp cutter some left side parts of the electrical films attached to the back of the mouse upper shell. I definitely solved it with an hardware modification to my mighty mouse. I was afflicted by the same problem of an excessive sensivity of the right "button". I tend to cuddle my mouse with several fingers, so I can never get the right button to work. My .plist is a binary plist file, so I could not edit it in TextEdit. Don't click on the popup for the ball button (doing so will undo this change). If you look at the settings in System Preferences, it won't say that (it will probably indicate Expose').
