Full video guild on how to use the Apple Magic Mouse gestures and Multi Touch features. Everything you need to know about your magic mouse is here.

Here is where you turn on the Screen Zoom feature in the System Settings. Accessibility> Zoom (not Mouse!) > "Use Scroll Gesture with Modifier Keys to Zoom" {toggle this on}. Under that you can choose which modifier key to use for the scrool gesture or leave it at its default of "Control". I just started using this mouse becasue I am stationary after years of travel and I finally have the patience for a mouse, but decided to use what I found in my drawer instead of purchasing another $99 item. Thanks so much for this video. It was super helpful to see the gestures in action, especially knowing the two-button (right) click must happen on the right side of the mouse! I couldn't get it to work before that. My little manual doesn;t say that.

11 years later and this video helped me sir! Thank you so much!

Thanks! Very helpful. I just 'inherited' this mouse with no idea the capabilities, and Apple has already moved on to the next version on their website. Extra helpful to know I can learn more right here on my own computer in the System Preferences folder.

I was planning to purchase a cord mouse until I decided to use my resources. This video changed my perspective on my Magic Mouse. Such a useful tool. 😭 thank you!

Thank you. I just switched back to an iMac and it's been years since I've used the mouse. Now I can zoom in on my work screen! priceless :)

If you double tap without clicking, an the top of the window, it lets you see all your windows and desktops. Accidentally found it out, but still awesome

Just an FYI, the right click can be done with a single finger as well, so you don't need two fingers. It just has to be clicked on the right side of the mouse.

Thanks for the tips tho!

Until I discovered your videos, my magic mouse had been sitting in the box for months!!!

I never used the mouse that came with my imac until laptop touchpad broke. The mouse makes no sense to a PC gamer with no right button or wheel. Googled "how to scroll with apple mouse" and now I am stoked I couldn't give this mouse away. Its perfect for a laptop and exactly what I need. Thanks!

Thank you for this!!! I kept accidentally zooming in and occasionally do the double finger swipe... Now I know how to revert that
