How To Configure Mac Magic Mouse?

To set up an Apple Magic Mouse on a Mac, you need a wired or wireless mouse or trackpad already connected to your Mac. If using a laptop computer, use its built-in trackpad during setup. Turn on your device and its LED should start blinking to show that it’s connected.

For a new Mac or a new Magic Mouse, connect the Magic Mouse to Mac before using it. This process works on the iMac, Mac Mini, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air, and Mac Pro. To customize your settings and gestures, follow these steps:

1. Click the Bluetooth icon in the upper-right corner of the screen and select Bluetooth Preferences.
2. On your Mac, click the Apple menu and select System Settings (or System Preferences) and then Bluetooth.
3. Connect your device to your Mac using a USB-C to Lightning Cable or USB-C to USB cable. For Apple Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard, and Magic Trackpad, force-pair the devices by connecting the included lightning cable to the Mac.
4. Connect your Magic Mouse 2 with a Lightning to USB cable to the Mac you want to pair your Apple wireless mouse with. Bring your mouse into pairing mode, turn it off and back on again, and double-click the Bluetooth button to connect the mouse to your Mac.

In summary, connecting an Apple Magic Mouse to a Mac requires a wired or wireless mouse or trackpad already connected to your Mac, as well as updating your software to OS X v10.11 or later.
