    The movement is the same on Mac vs PC.

    • Pan: Middle mouse drag (or ctrl + right click drag)
    • Rotate: Right click drag
    • Zoom: Scroll

    For future reference, the Apple Magic Mouse does not enable right-click by default. To fix that, you need to go to system settings and scroll down to mouse and enable secondary click (right-click)

    No need to thumbs down me for information that you failed to provide, which is that your using a Magic Mouse…

    With that information in mind, here's some important steps I recommend for CAD use:

    • Open your browser.
    • Navigate to here, and click the purchase button.
    • When it arrives, go to the nearest waste bin.
    • Carefully toss the magic mouse into the waste bin.
    • Enjoy the industry standard CAD mouse rated highly by most Onshape users. Best CAD Mouse Forum Post
