Previously my MacBook always picked up my wireless MightyMouse.... but for the last couple of months it refuses to connect on start up. I have to switch bluetooth off and then on again - then it works???? Niggling at me for a while and time to try and fix it! Any thoughts?
I also have a similar problem with my main wireless network.... each time I boot up I have to tell it to connect to it (works fine with 2 other wireless I regularly use)???

TIA
Steve

I have since found that a few clicks of the mouse seems to help - at first it shows no sign of connecting but clicking several times with the mouse and it all of a sudden connects.... go figure!
