I can't get my wireless mighty mouse to sense my right clinking. It just left-clicks wherever i touch. I already opened it and tried to do some stuff (ehm...).
I think it might have to do with that extractable metal thin plate that sits under where the middle right finger rests (more or less).
Is this a good question?

See if this may do it: Go into your system preferences and mouse settings and make sure that "secondary click" is selected. And you can choose the option of whether you want your secondary click to be on the right or the left.

I think that article is about the Magic Mouse, while I have the Mighty. And actually i don't have that menu.
However, I really don't know how, now it's back working... Mystery...
Thanks anyway for the interest!

If none of these steps work, it's possible that the issue is with the mouse's internal circuitry or hardware, and it may need to be replaced.

Make sure the metal plate is properly seated: If you removed the metal plate during your troubleshooting, make sure it is properly seated back in its original position.
Clean the mouse: Dirt and debris can sometimes interfere with the mechanical switch mechanism of the mouse. Use a can of compressed air or a soft-bristled brush to gently clean the mouse and remove any debris.
Reset the mouse: Sometimes resetting the mouse can help fix the issue. To reset the Mighty Mouse, turn it off, remove the batteries, wait a few seconds, and then put the batteries back in and turn the mouse back on.
Replace the metal plate: If the metal plate is visibly bent or damaged, it may need to be replaced. You can try purchasing a replacement part online or taking the mouse to an authorized repair shop.
