    What kind of reply is that - "buy another mouse". If you knew what you were talking about you would know that the mouse & keyboard and a USB are all connected so I can't just buy a mouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Amazingly, you can "just buy a mouse" . here is an examplehttp://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Periphera...

    Go to Control Panel and check out the Mouse settings. Maybe your left and right mouse buttons are swapped - which is an option in the mouse setup menu.

ASUS 1000 left mouse button not working

Yes! get a can of compressed air and attach supplied straw, now with your fingernail lift up the left mouse button and give a few good blasts in the crevice, this will clear out any buildup of dirt and grime that has collected, repeat as required. If this fails it will involve laptop service.

The right side of my touch pad control button has stopped working

Did you check the settings for the left and right buttons under the mouse properties. Normally the left should be set on Click and the right should be set on Shortcut. If it's set to NONE then it will be inoperable. Better yet you can click the Default tab for buttons. Otherwise, it sounds like your touch pad needs to be replaced. The immediate remedy to this is to just go purchase a USB mouse and voila, you'll have the ability to left and right click.

Hi,

Connect an external mouse then press and hold the CTRL key on the keyboard. Just scroll down the scroll wheel located in between the left and right click buttons on the mouse and it should zoom out the page.

Hope this helps.

I signed up for Twitter a while back, but I hadn't used the account. When I went to log in this time, I couldn't remember my user name or password. I was asked to plug in my e-mail account, which...

You have two choices, first one is to just click on the link and it will bring you to the page where you change your password, or you can with a left mouse button click highlight the link, once it is highlighted you will press the right mouse button and select copy, than you will open your browser and will click on the address bar that white space where the website address will be displayed, delete whatever is there and place your mouse cursor in the bar right click paste and there you go.

I cannot get into my account. I emailed to get my password and it doesn't work. I do not know how to "paste and copy". Please help me.

You need to copy the password and paste it into the password box on the paypal website. To copy,
  • Click with your left mouse button just before the password.
  • Hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse to the right until the password is highlighted.
  • Click the right mouse button and a menu will appear.
  • Click on "Copy"
The password is now copied into the computer memory.

To paste the password into the box on the paypal website;
  • Click the left button of your mouse in the password box.
  • Click the right mouse button and a menu will appear
  • Click "Paste"
You will now have pasted the password into the box.

I can't hold the left button down and drag pictures or icons on the desktop.

Check if the mouse has been aligned for to be used by Left-Handed or RIght Handed people. If the settings are correct try reinstalling the drivers for the mouse. If that doesnt help either, try replacin the mouse and see if that helps.
