It seems to get the mouse working, and then it decides not to follow any of the bits relating to variables and the Serial Monitor. I'm super annoyed, as this is the only library I found to go with my mouse. Any suggestions?

It only works with older arduino SDK versions 1.0.x and previous.

I'm running 1.0.6 on my mac and 1.8.1 on my desktop. Neither work. Should I try an older version still? Or, do you know of any other, similar libraries that have the same functions as this one?

Sorry I don't maintain this library anymore, nor do I have any hardware left to test it with. There are a few old examples online, and some docs on how the PS/2 standard works. I would imagine it's just a SDK incompatibility or the mouse you are using may not work. You can try to hack around with it or try some googling. Maybe that https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/MouseKeyboard will work for you. I will warn you that they are very finicky to get working period. They depend on very specific timing for initialization and reading, it can be hair pulling.... Good luck
