Zoom not working with wireless mouse and Windows 7
I installed Office 7 on a new system with Windows 7 and a Microsoft wireless
laser mouse 6000 and the zoom won't work using the control key with the wheel on the mouse -- it works fine on my old XP system and with my adobe products on the new system -- is there a way to make the zoom work again? |

Zoom not working with wireless mouse and Windows 7
Have you installed the mouse drivers and checked to make sure that the
button (and wheel) assignments in the mouse Properties are correct? -- Suzanne S.

Zoom not working with wireless mouse and Windows 7
The IntelliPoint software is probably to blame - it has been this way since
Adam was a lad. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Exactly why Microsoft Mice do not work properly with Microsoft software, whilst every other manufacturer's mice do, remains a mystery. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "katluc" wrote in message ...

Zoom not working with wireless mouse and Windows 7
A co-worker of mine just had the exact same problem. (I think the mouse was a
"Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000" or some such mouthful.) What we found was that the ctrl-mousewheel zoom feature would work maybe 10% of the time; most of the time the command would be ignored, or it would respond with something like a half-second delay. We fixed it by switching back to her old Dell/Microsoft super-basic corded USB mouse. It works perfectly. We used the same version of the Intellipoint driver, in Windows 7, for both mice. The creaky old corded mouse worked; they shiny new wireless mouse did not. -- Marvin Long, Jr. "katluc" wrote: I installed Office 7 on a new system with Windows 7 and a Microsoft wireless laser mouse 6000 and the zoom won't work using the control key with the wheel on the mouse -- it works fine on my old XP system and with my adobe products on the new system -- is there a way to make the zoom work again? |
