First off let me apologize if this has already been posted, but for some reason or another the forum's "search" feature is no longer showing up...o_O

Anyhoo it seems that lately that my games are no longer recognizing the "3rd mouse" button on my MX1000. It's very strange, considering it's been doing this just today! However to make it even stranger, I can use it when out of game (I usually use it to initiate my scroll on web pages).

Anyone have any ideas why now, in-game I can no longer use it?

I recently downloaded the most current drivers for it via Logitech, including their Setpoint software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
Check the default assignment of the button. My MX610 defaults the middle button to 'zoom', not 'button3'. It's possible the new version of the software changed its behavior on you.
 
After downloading the driver and setpoint, I accessed the program to look at the features of the mouse. I first set my "click" or "3rd button" for scroll. I tried to edit my control layout in those online games I play with the "3rd button", but when I went to input it in, it wouldn't register it.

Very strange...
 
I have found that using the side button with the arrow that points at you works great as the 3rd mouse button.
