If you are looking for the control panel options, then Rtrahan is correct. However, if your question is regarding why the mouse is no longer moving as easily as it used to, then you might take a look at the rollers inside the mouse and see how much dust, hair, and other junk is impacted on them. A ball mouse has a very bad habit of picking up just about anything that can float by in the room. Therefore, it is best to clean off the rollers every month or two. If you find that there is a lot of stuff on the rollers, then gently scrape at it with your fingernail and when you have it knocked loose, pull it out of the mouse. Once you have done this to both rollers, your mouse should move normally once again.

What is a good mouse sensitivity?

A good mouse sensitivity largely depends on personal preference and the type of tasks you perform. For general use, a sensitivity setting between 800 to 1600 DPI (dots per inch) is common, offering a balance between speed and precision. Gamers often prefer lower sensitivities, around 400 to 800 DPI, for better control in competitive scenarios, while higher sensitivities may suit fast-paced gaming. Ultimately, it's best to adjust sensitivity based on comfort and accuracy for your specific needs.

What is the difference between mouse and a tracker ball?

A tracker ball is both a the ball on top of a stationary mouse and a type of a mouse that has a ball on top. A typical mouse is moved over a pad and has the ball directing the cursor on the bottom, but a tracker ball type mouse has the ball on top of a stationary mouse where you direct the cursor by moving the ball with your thumb, FOREFINGER AND MAINLY WITH YOUR PALM. This type of mouse is sometimes called a tracker ball for short and the ball on this type of stationary mouse is also called a tracker ball. [ delete the following:...It is not a good name. What does it track? Nothing that I can tell. Computer terms were assigned by people who wanted to make it confusing, didn't speak English, or were very confused themselves] It would be better explained as follows. '''A tracker ball is both a the ball on top of a stationary mouse and''' [?a type of a mouse that has a ball on top]. '''A typical mouse is moved over a pad and has the ball directing the cursor on the bottom, but a tracker ball type mouse has the ball on top of a stationary mouse where you direct the cursor by moving the ball with your thumb,''' '''forefinger but mostly with the inner aspect of your palm. This type of mouse is used by people with arthritis or RSI as it saves making the fiddly and speedy movements with the digit joints (which cause some people pain) and directs the cursor by making a round movement after putting your hand over the large glass "tracker" which is on top of the "mouse". I myself was able to work as a secretary doing 100wpm until the age of 59 despite arthritic fingers since my late-40s, because an ERGONOMIC TRACKER MOUSE was recommended and purchased for me by my employers. I can highly recommend the TRACKER MOUSE to anybody - especially to those with arthritic hands and intermittent RSI.''' '''"Tracker Lover"'''
