Hi,


I am having a problem with my Magic Mouse gen 1. I have tried pairing it with my iPad numerous times and while it pairs, tracks, and selects things perfectly I am completely unable to scroll webpages or anything else and am forced to use my finger to do so. I have seen lots of people on YouTube using the Magic Mouse gen 2 and it works perfectly so I'm wondering, what about the 1st generation Magic Mouse is causing it to behave this way? Is it just because it's old and I need a new mouse? I'm just looking for answers right now so if the answer is just flat out no, then I can go get a new mouse to use but if anybody else has managed to scroll with the 1st generation Magic Mouse then I would like to know what I'm doing wrong because having a mouse that I can use properly with my iPad would be a huge asset to me.


Thanks in advance!

Same problem here, latest iPadOS Beta. I'm on the iPad Pro 12,9" 2018 with the 1st Generation Apple Magic Mouse.


I can't understand, why other mouses can work easily for scrolling and an Apple Product can't...

Nope, Magic Mouse gen 1 will NOT scroll on iPadPro OS 13.4. You still need a finger on the screen 😐.

Doesn't work for me either. iPad pro 11 Inch iPad OS 13.4. seems like a bug...

Found a workaround in the meantime:

If you enable Assistive Touch in Accessbility, then the Mouse click-and-drag will scroll the screens.

With the mouse, click and pull that black handle (black bar) at the bottom of the display upwards. Then click on anything other than a running app. Just fyi too, command+H, does the same.

Same problem with mine. Magic mouse gen. 1 + iPadOS v13.4.0 (iPad Pro 2018, 11"). That mouse does not scroll.

Hi, considering filling a bug on https://feedbackassistant.apple.com


Apple considers duplicated bugs as "votes" for a given bug report.


The more bugs are filled on this subject, the more is likely that Apple will react!

Yeah, but you won't be able to drag the screen when browsing on Safari.

I've been using MM1 with this Touch enabled without any issue before 13.4 😐

Hi, same no change on the latest iPadOS 14 beta. Scrolling and drag-to-scroll still doesn’t work except home and app screen.

Same here, make non sense force the user to replace their magic mouse or trackpad that is full capable of doing the task just because apple don’t want to support it on IpadOS... I was wondering that would be the first time that i will enjoy to use my ipad for a real world task, but it seems i was wrong or at least i will be forced to expend few extra $$$.
