I was given a bluetooth mighty mouse which has the name of the previous owner, is there a way to change this or to reset the mouse to factory settings? I’ve looked all through the mouse and bluetooth settings but not found anything?
Many thanks

Try this: Open System Preferences. Go to either the Keyboard prefs or the Bluetooth prefs, I can’t remember which offhand. Then you should be able to select the device and there should be an option to rename it.
If the basics don’t work, make sure you have the magic mouse update 1.0. That seems to unlock all of the mouse’s functions on the computer.
