Use this guide to repair a first-generation Magic Mouse with replaceable batteries when the cursor and left click still work, but right click, scrolling, and touch gestures don't. A fall can loosen the touch-surface ribbon connector or leave its latch partly open. This guide shows how to open the mouse, reseat the connector, renew the adhesive, and test the repair.

Use a fingernail or a plastic opening tool to lift the small locking flap on the connector.

Press the flap closed on one side, then the other, until both sides are fully shut.

手順5 Test the connector
-
Install the batteries without fully reassembling the mouse.

Connect the mouse to a computer and test left click, right click, scrolling, and touch gestures.

If the touch functions still don't work, remove the batteries and reseat the ribbon connector again.

手順6 Remove the old adhesive
-
Peel the old glue from the cover piece and the matching mounting surfaces.

Remove as much old adhesive as possible so the new tape can bond well.

-
手順7 Apply new tape
-
Apply small pieces of double-sided tape to the cleaned cover piece.
-
Keep the LED opening clear of tape and adhesive.
-
Press the cover piece back into place so the tape bonds evenly.

Press the opened parts of the mouse back into place until the tabs are seated.

Connect the mouse and test the left click, right click, scrolling, and touch gestures.
