MacOS mouse shortcuts are reset upon restart or shutdown

It's not about logitech, it's a issue with the macOS 15 itself only. I think Apple team will fix it in the next few version.

This TOTALLY WORKED! Thank you!!

It is not a issue in logitech mouse, becase I tested other mouses such as lenveo, this issue also exists. however, if the mac doesn't connect to any mouse, it should be success to save the mouse settings by touch pad, it is still a issue with mac os system itself.

Same issue. iMac 5k 2020 (Intel). This never happened, but now with Sequoia. I am 100% sure it has to do with Sequoia because recently I had to return a LaCie SSD because of another of this kind of critical bug that corrupted the drive's permissions.

My ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Desktop-Settings.extension/Data/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist has four entries in it.

My ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist file had many, many entries in it.

However, my source .plist had keys 38–41, and the destination .plist didn’t have those keys in it.

So I opened both files with a text editor and copied the four entries into the much larger .plist in ~/Library/Preferences.

I wouldn’t recommend my mother do this on her machine, but it’s something I’m comfortable enough doing, and it worked as a workaround.

To be civil about this issue.

If you believe this to be "Bug " by the definition used by Apple

By all means report exactly as such " Bug Report "

The issue that will arise, once they see a Third Party Non Apple Device - I bet is it will not get too much traction

The Classic Mighty Mouse Released Aug 2, 2005 - Discontinued October 20, 2009  being an exception but then again, there are not that many of them available for Retail Purchase

Feedback - macOS - Apple

The same issues with my mac on macos 15.

Same issue here, using a Razer Viper V3 Pro.

As this thread indicates, it doesn't matter what mouse you have it's an OS bug.

Running 15.2 & MBP M4 Max

Thank you so much! This worked on my end. I do appreciate your attitude and how your perseverance and patience solved the problem. I wish your post received more recognition than it did. Bravo!

Weird thing for me is that I had my M2 Macbook side by side with my M4 for a short while, had no issue on my M2 and this keeps happening with the M4. Along with usb-c monitor issues that I didn't have on the M2

This indeed fixed it for me on my Mac mini 2018.

Everything back to normal: both keyboard shortcuts and mouse shortcuts work as before.

It is confirmed: it is a bug introduced in macOS 15.1 Sequoia.

Thanks for your efforts and information!

Cheers

Certain misconceptions persist regarding the relationship between Apple Computer and third-party devices, applications, extensions, services, and accessories.

These misconceptions often arise when third-party products fail to function or meet user expectations.

Apple is responsible for addressing issues with its own services, applications, operating systems, and accessories. However, Apple cannot rectify user choices of third-party products installed and used on their computers.

This responsibility lies solely with the third party to evaluate the performance of their products when used on an Apple Computer running the intended version of macOS.

You will wait a very long time

Technically, Apple Does Not Own " Logitech "

Therefore, Apple is not responsible the fix that which they do not Own

In the close to 2 decades of using Apple Devices and Services

Apple has never tailored made the Apple Computers and versions of OS X / macOS to work with Third Party anything

What the user takes away from this, is really up to the user .

If the mouse is a Logitech Mouse - it is all about Logitech

I have had this issue as well since I got my M4 Mac Mini and just tested on 15.3 and it's still an issue for me. I go to System Settings > Desktop and Dock > Shortcuts and set the Mouse Shortcut for Mission Control to Mouse Button 3, it works. After a reboot, it no longer works and the setting is no longer set. I can do the fix listed in this thread, but I'd rather the devs fix this as it's clearly an issue with MacOS since it's their settings that aren't saved.
