[iMore Question]

Instead of buying a cheap $12 dollar PC Bluetooth mouse, I went for the real deal. I went to the Apple Store and bought an $80 dollar magic mouse only to find out that is doesn't work because "This device uses too much power" So I couldn't use it. Any thoughts on why?

My first edition Magic Mouse works fine with no problems.
