I installed a Wireless Mouse (USB) and noticed that after a 30 minutes-when I Click on any Link,menu , etc. the mouse does not work. The cursor recognises the link,menu option( it turns to a hand) but when I clich nothing,happens. I swapped back to my original Mac USB mouse and this problem continues Thanks--RS

I had the same problem with a wireless mouce. I could unplug it and then plug it back and it would work again for a while. Also I had to put new batterys in the mouse about every 4 or 5 days.
