Magic Mouse skips around only in Adobe Indesign.

Hello.

I'm not sure if anyone has had this issue before, but my mouse works horribly in Indesign. If I go to another application, say Illustrator or Desktop, it works fine, but again, once I click back to Indesign, the mouse starts skipping around.

Any solutions?

Thanks.

There is a utility—MagicPrefs—that fixes magic mouse problems in InDesign. It is no longer being updated, but it continues to work with High Sierra and is 64-bit.

Hi Brad,

sorry, no real solution and workaround:

I had this issue with the Magic Mouse already 11 years ago with InDesign CS5 and CS5.5 on old Mac OS X 10.5.

Bought a simple and cheap replacement and never looked back.

Hi Brad,

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing version of the OS & InDesign? Have you tried connecting a wired mouse(or any other wireless mouse) to see if it makes a difference?

Please try disconnecting(removing) magic mouse and connect it again to see if it improves the behavior.

Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to your response.

Regards,

Ashutosh
