Where Does Mac Mouse Fix Store Settings?
Mac Mouse Fix keeps its button mappings and scroll settings in Application Support, with a preferences plist beside them.
Last updated
Mac Mouse Fix splits settings across two familiar spots. Button mappings and app data live in Application Support under its own folder. Toggles duplicate into the standard preferences plist.
Accessibility permission is the part people forget. macOS binds it per install, so migrated settings load but do nothing until the toggle is refreshed. Confirm the folder name in Application Support on your version, since major releases reorganize it.
Where Mac Mouse Fix stores this, by platform
~/Library/Application Support/Mac Mouse Fix
Mappings and app data in the support folder. Copy it with the app closed. Confirm the exact folder name on your version before scripting backups.
~/Library/Preferences/com.noah-nuebling.mac-mouse-fix.plist
Toggles mirror of the support folder. Confirm the exact domain in Preferences on your install, since bundle naming varies by release. Delete with the app closed for a clean reset.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move Mac Mouse Fix settings to a new Mac?
Copy the Mac Mouse Fix folder to the same Application Support path with the app closed. Mappings and scroll behavior travel together. Re grant accessibility permission on the new Mac before launching.
Mac Mouse Fix stopped working after an update. Why?
Open System Settings, Privacy and Security, Accessibility, and re enable Mac Mouse Fix. Permission binds to the install, so copies and updates both need the toggle refreshed. The app stays inert until then.
