The mouse part moves, but the curser won't move. I tried cleaning the inside. It will only move up and down easily, it takes a lot of work to get it to move left or right. If I take the little ball out and just turn the little things inside it moves just fine.

Wipe the ball down with rubbing alcohol as well as the parts that come in contact with it. All kinds of crud builds up in there, making it seem like it's not working.

You need to clean the ball and the rollers. If that doesn't work, buy an optical mouse.

Its time to change the mouse. Like anything mechanical, it has a finite lifespan.
