Did you install the Naga mouse driver? I have an extra system control panel thingy and have the right mouse button set to "menu", which is the default setting. You also need to de-install USBOverdrive or any other 3rd party drivers you've got.

I know this is an old topic. I just got this mouse and play on a Mac, but can't right click. Is there something I missed in setup or do I just have a defective mouse?

Yeah, the new 2.0 driver is pretty sexy. I'm told that you can make mouse-driver-level macros (keystroke sequences programmed into the mouse, like the g11 keyboard) with it also.

The only problem is that the 2.0 driver is currently only for Windows. So I'm stuck with the mac driver for now. Such is life.

I still love my Naga, it's the best mouse ever for playing WoW. I've gotten really used to the 12-button pad on the side, and can press any button with ease. My right hand never leaves the mouse anymore.

ok, i own the razer naga as well. and after the 2.0 driver update, as of a few days ago.. heres what you have the capability of doing
every button.. EVEN LEFT AND RIGHT CLICK, can be assiged seperate roles (as in not just left click, etc), as well as each button can be assigned a macro. each of the 12 on the side can be assigned macros, hotkey bindings, anything you want now.. anything at all.. i use mine for wasd movement in fps's because not only is this mouse a mmo dream come TRUE.. the accuracy WILL MAKE YOU BETTER IN YOUR FPS GAMES! the buttons aren't big, feel right to the touch, and only require a few days to get used to.. the mouse is a hybrid, it can be used as a palm mouse, OR a fingertip mouse.. not many hybrid mice around btw.. additionally it just... FEELS RIGHT in your hand, like it was meant to go there.. and the buttons scream to you.. use me.. cmon! get imba, you know you wanna.. touch me..... its kinda freaky at first.. its so easy to use.. lol the left and right lick FEEL perfect, and you can click from anywhere at all.. top of the mouse, bottom of the mouse, you never feel like you dont know which is left or right. couple this keyboard with the logitech g11.. and if you are a healer like me.. you'll be a threat to any mmo, multi tasking like it was always meant to be! if you're wondering how big the left keys are, they are the size of the end of your pinky.. small huh? its easy to use the buttons with the botton of your thumb too, in case you're used to a mouse with a 'analog stick' style stick on it. razer updates the drivers every month, and its obvious they love this mouse as much as we do :)

PVP would train you on using the mouse near exclusively. I can't begin to tell you how bad I would get owned when I was first starting this game because I didn't have my hand on the mouse (or the inverse, because I clicked my abilties).

I would. Having a mouse, even a little one (as lon...

I would. Having a mouse, even a little one (as long as it actually has buttons, I hate playing WoW with the mighty mouse), makes life a LOT easier. When you're flying around, looking for groundspawns (say), you can just click left+right buttons and your character goes forward in the direction you point. Move the mouse and you fly in another direction, even up/down. It makes 3d navigation a lot easier. Similarly for vehicle combat, I'd hate having to actually use the elevate/depress buttons on a turret, I just aim by right-clicking and dragging the reticle around.

Other than that, the mouse is roughly optional. Up until I got the Naga, I only used the mouse for those navigation tasks, mainly. I would use both hands on the keyboard during combat.

So - it's definitely a quality of life improvement for flying, swimming and vehicles to have a wider lapdesk.

I can recommend the MX-518 if you're looking at mice, it's a very decent mouse for $40. Just download USBOverdrive and it works fine on a Mac. Of course, the Naga's better. :P

I freely admit that having mouseover macros at my disposal would be a way to improve my play, and that using a mouse regularly and properly would correct my AoE targeting deficiency and vehicle combat woes, but alas, the thought has never occurred to me to go buy a wider lapdesk. Perhaps I should?

N just don't know if I could ever get used to left-hand drive, though, it'd be like moving to England or something.

2009-10-22T10:50:59.262-04:00

That's a lot of keybinds. I have about that many buttons, but only.. umm.. 37 actual binds (number pad 1-12, shift + number pad 1-12, and QATG, shift-QATG, np-., shift np-., and `) The naga lets me put the number-pad binds on the mouse, and bind forward/back/wheelclick to three other essential buttons (as well as shifted buckies on those buttons, which I tend to use for quest items while I'm soloing). So, 43 total binds. Wow, adds up fast.

2009-10-22T10:22:14.342-04:00

The fact that I do not own a mouse is not a result of my using a laptop, rather it is a result of my using a lapdesk that doesn't have any room for a mouse.

Besides, I have 59 keybinds already. I don't even have that many things to bind!

Sounds like a hell of a mouse, though. I'm surprised those little chicklet keys are so usable, I had my doubts at first glance.
