I have a Logitech M570 Wireless Trackball. \u00a0I’ve had it for a few years, and love it. \u00a0Recently I’ve noticed the the right mouse button has click issues. \u00a0Sometimes it will right-click and act like a double click. \u00a0Sometimes it will stick. \u00a0This was a problem during gaming, working in Excel and while completing other tasks.<\/p>\n
Finally, I was tired of this problem, so I did a search. \u00a0Amazingly, this is a huge problem. \u00a0The Logitech forums are littered with complaints. \u00a0What is the problem? \u00a0It seems to be the microswitches Logitech is using are not holding up. \u00a0Many users are able to contact Logitech and have the mouse replaced under warranty, but the Logitech hasn’t officially addressed the problem.<\/p>\n
There doesn’t seem to be a consensus on fixing this problem. \u00a0A site called Red Ferret has an article on repairing a switch in a Logitech mouse (not the M570) (http:\/\/www.redferret.net\/?p=31008<\/a>)<\/p>\n The symptoms are that the mouse click delivers two clicks for one press, which can be extremely annoying and renders the mouse unworkable for important tasks. This time, however, instead of consigning the device to the trash and buying another, we decided to see if we could solve the situation with a bit of DIY. And the answer is yes!<\/p>\n A quick search on Google revealed that other more intrepid souls had managed to fix their own meeces, and so we got to work on two \u2018dead\u2019 mice lying around in Ferret Towers, a Logitech M705 and an older MX Revolution. The first thing to note is that the culprit is tiny, a sliver of copper which can\u2019t be worth more than \u00a30.02p.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Their solution is to re-bend the spring or “sliver of copper” and they even have a video showing how to fix this.<\/p>\nLogitech Mouse Double Click Problem and How To Fix It<\/h2>\n
