Is a mouse hardware?

Yes, a mouse is hardware.

Think of hardware as the parts you could physically touch, inside or outside of the computer. You could touch a mouse. So what can you touch? A keyboard, a hard drive, a monitor... Those are all physical things that you can hold in your hands, so they are all hardware.

Software are the parts you couldn't touch. They are the codes, programs, apps, and data, the parts that "think" to tell the computer what to do.

Where can you buy a replacement wireless mouse receiver?

Unless its bluetooth, I'm afraid you cant. None of the manufacturers will sell you just the receiver (assuming yours isn't discontinued) and so you would instruct you to buy a whole new mouse just for the receiver. At that point, you may as well just use the new mouse.

Since every wireless mouse manufacturer uses a different wireless protocol, its not really possible for anyone to make a universal receiver.

Optomechanical - These mice use a ball to turn slotted wheels inside which pass through photocells. They require a mouse pad to be able to move, and are more reliable than the purely mechanical mice.

Optical - These mice use a laser LED and a camera chip inside and does not require a mouse pad to be able to move

What does it mean when your shoulder clicks?

It could be because of bone rubbing on bone, as a result of trauma to the shoulder. Talk to your physician or an orthopedic surgeon about doing some scans and x-rays to check for any damage. A torn labrum (a cartilaginous cup that surrounds the synovial joint) doesn't always show up on an MRI, but could be the problem, which can heal on its own in about 20 years or could be healed by surgery.

Why would a person not be able to control the movement of their cursor unless their mouse is rotated 90 degrees?

I am really using mouse up side down and I exactly know why I do this.

because when I start to use the mouse I never think why it is like this, It was just hard to use that and as 13 years old boy, I kjust wanted to use that mouse. The MsDos was just like a new language and I learnt it as a programmer setting my fathers accounting software. So, I had a chance to learn how to run programs. So, one day when no one were at home, I turned on the IBM PS/2 SCL35 and attached the mouse to the nice blue com port at the back of my new friend. it was just two steps to use my new buddy. A: enter, gmouse enter and that was the mouse blinking in the center.

Later, I can not remember exactly when, because at that time I was happy enough to overload The Prince of Persia on my machine and enjoy the virtual reality, but should not be more than few weeks, I install the Paint brush. For the first time, I have tried to use a mouse in a graphical environment, and I found when ever I move the mouse backward the pointer goes forward and vise versa when I was moving the mouse upward it went some other places. I started to concentrate and learn the relation between the pointer of mouse and mouse movemenet.

At that time I had been thinking what a mastermind I am. I could run the machine and use the paint brush; however, later when I see how people use mouses properly I found myself guilty. And, now start to think maybe I am realy an stupid guy. Even my sister uses the mouse like me. sometime, in our rare visits we wish to design a mouse for ourselvs to enjoy using mouse up-side-down.
