    Hey guys,

    I bought the arc mouse yesterday! I think it looks really cool and the sensitivity is also quite okay. But I have this problem! It's not the scroll that's spoiled but I can't seem to scroll in itunes. I can scroll in all other places (firefox, IE, documents..), just not itunes.

    Any ideas to why this is happening? Thanks!

    I have the same problem when using the middle button and then moving my curser up and down to scroll. That fails in every Macintosh application. Maybe microsoft designed it differently... But that would be a little mean...

    I'm using the Logitec Mediaplay mouse.

    ****. I can't even use the normal scrolling in itunes, save for middle-clicking scroll.

    My GF is having the same problem with hers, doesn't scroll in iTunes as well as most other applications. Only time it works is occasionally in Chrome.
