To resync your Mac mouse, follow the steps below:
1. Replace the batteries: If your mouse uses batteries, start by replacing them with fresh ones. Make sure you insert them correctly, following the polarity markings inside the battery compartment.
2. Turn on the mouse: After inserting the new batteries, turn on the mouse by flipping the power switch located either on the bottom or the side of the mouse. Some mice also have a power button that needs to be pressed.
3. Enable Bluetooth on your Mac: Click on the Apple menu in the top-left corner of your screen and select “System Preferences.” In the System Preferences window, click on the “Bluetooth” icon. Ensure that Bluetooth is turned on by checking the box next to “On.”
4. Put your mouse in pairing mode: Most Bluetooth mice enter pairing mode automatically when turned on. However, some mice may require you to press a dedicated button or combination of buttons to initiate pairing mode. Refer to the documentation that came with your mouse to determine the specific method.
5. Pair your mouse with your Mac: Once your mouse is in pairing mode, you should see it listed in the Bluetooth preferences window on your Mac. It may appear as a generic mouse or with the manufacturer’s name. Click on the mouse’s name to select it.
6. Complete the pairing process: After selecting your mouse, your Mac will attempt to pair with it. During this process, you may be prompted to enter a pairing code or PIN. If required, enter the code provided with your mouse or refer to the mouse’s documentation for the correct code.
7. Wait for the connection: After entering the pairing code, your Mac will establish a connection with the mouse. This process may take a few seconds. Once the connection is established, your mouse should be ready to use.
8. Test the mouse: To ensure that the resync was successful, move your mouse and check if the cursor on your screen responds accordingly. If the cursor movement is smooth and accurate, congratulations! Your mouse is now properly synced with your Mac.
Remember, the exact steps may vary slightly depending on the model and brand of your mouse. If you encounter any difficulties during the resync process, consult the manufacturer’s website or support documentation for further assistance.
