My custom mouse shortcuts reset after each restart or shutdown. I assign Mouse Button 5 to Mission Control and Mouse Button 4 to Application Windows.
I’ve tested various Bluetooth mice and don’t use any mouse software—such as Logitech Options or LinearMouse.
This issue appears to be specific to macOS 15.1, as I haven’t encountered it in the past 2 years of using macOS.
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 15.1
Yes, this is also happening to me. M4 Mac mini MacOS 15.1. usually have Mission Control set to mouse button 4... but when I restart or shutdown my Mac it doesn't remember my setting. 🤞 this gets fixed because I use Mission Control a lot.
Edit:
Stopped working. Now I can see in the Settings what is set as shortcut, but does not function at all. Tried resetting the shortcut to "None" and assign it again, it shows up but does not function at all.
Had to delete both .plist files, then my Mac is at its previous state again.
This ship has sailed
As suggest the previous user
If this user cares to follow that suggestion
That too, remains to be seen
And the Sun will rise in the West and set in the East
The same issue on my M4 mini 15.2, at the same time for my macbook air M1 15.2 it works ok. Seems like the issue applicable only for minis not for laptops.
Issue appears to be fixed in 15.3 🥳
Updated earlier today and the shortcuts are persisting after log out and restart.
Facing the similar issue with M2 after updating sequoia 15.3
Brilliant! Thank you!
This just 100% worked for me.
Took me a couple of trys to figure out where to go (not sure why), but it's finally done.
Also only happening in my M3 Pro MacBook with Sequoia 15.3.2 , not in my M1 Pro from work which also has Sequoia 15.3.2.
Thank you so much for sharing this solution, this has been driving me crazy for months!
That worked on my Sequoia 15.1 M4 Pro with M720 Triathlon mouse. Thanks a lot!
MacOS mouse shortcuts are reset upon restart or shutdown
