HELP! I'm having Problems with MouseWorks 5.7 on OS 9.2.2....

I have a Kensington Turbo Mouse Pro ... the big trackball with 4
buttons.... only 3 buttons click in OS 9, and NO special features work,
such as double-click, drag, etc. They are ALL single-click no matter
what I do.

When I boot into OS X, it works perfectly with all the special features.

Anyone else heard of this?

What can I do?

Thanks!

Hey tin man,

I have a dual-boot:

OS 9.2.2 uses Kensington MouseWorks 5.7, an application, together with six
items that Kensington installed in the System Folder of OS 9.2.2. Are you
seeing/using the Kensington MouseWorks 5.7 application while you are
booted into 9.2.2?

Just for contrast, the other part of my dual-boot is OS 10.2.8, and I am
using Mouseworks for OS X version 2.1, whose features are accessed through
a System Preferences pane -- quite a different setup for the same sort
of features as in MouseWorks 5.7.

You might go to the Kensington web site and download the appropriate
software and try a re-install.

I have that exact install... downloaded fresh from the website... 5.7
for OS 9.2.2 and 2.1 for OS X,.... I have re-installed it several times
on several different computers... and I still have the same problems...
works perfect in OS X, but doesn't work properly in OS 9.2.2

I have v5.7 working fine on my ibook with the Kensington Pocket Mouse.
The biggest pain is that it won't scroll in Classic, but the other
features I've set up work fine.

I do find that when I happen to boot into 9.2.2, I have to open
Mouseworks and reset everything.

Perhaps your preferences are corrupted and should be deleted.
