Marble Mouse Preferences Problem

I recently bought the Logitech Marble Mouse. I have a MacBook Pro, so I installed the Logitech Control Center via the cd.
When I open up my Preferences for the Logitech control center, I am advised that I "cannot open the preferences on this computer."

As of now, the mouse trackball works, but I am unable to execute other functions, and I cannot access the control center to fix the issue or set up preferences.

Advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Try Normal 0 Go to Control Panel and click on the Mouse icon. When the window opens showing the mouse, select the button you want to change and click on the drop down and set as desired.
Hope this helps. Bud

Right mouse button closes window

1) Can you try the mouse in a different machine? Does it do the same thing?
2) Check your settings in 'SetPoint' software, or go to your Control Panel and check your mouse settings - you may have accidentally changed the settings for your mouse keys somehow.

3) Download the latest drivers for your mouse and re-install.

Scrolling Problem Following Windows SP3 Installation

This is obviously a driver fault, unless by coincidence the mouse is failing.

For a start, try uninstalling the driver, and then re-installing it back.

Doesn´t work with pro/engineer (panning an zomming)

love this trackball mouse, yet they are very sensitive to wear and trash that causes them to fail. Wal-Mart sells great ones like the Logitech LX3 optical mouse that are not as sensitive and have more features

Marble mouse problems

I have a problem like this with the marble mouse ... relatively easy workaround for me is if I simply grab the trackball with my fingers, lift it slightly out of its cradle, and put it back down, it starts working again. It would be better if there were some way to prevent it from freezing in the first place.

I had another marble mouse a couple years ago that did not have this problem. Eventually one of its button switches went bad so I had to replace the mouse. This is the replacement.
