Have you tried plugging it into a different
USB port ?

The USB mouse should always be plugged directly into one of the 2 USB ports on your iMac; it should not be plugged into a USB expansion hub. If you add more peripherals in the future, say, 5 devices, you should daisy-chain the second expansion hub to the first hub. Hope this helps.
