Using an ability requires a hardware event. I suggest getting Panda, Deconstructive, or similar to aid you with it.

If you don't like the macro thing, you can try Molinari.

I just wish there was something where i can click a button and it will prospect all ore in my bag automatically. A lot of times have like 20 stacks of ore, 4 prospects per stack, that's 80 freaking clicks, 2 secs a click, 2.6 mins of sitting there freaking clicking . There has to be a better way to automate this.

That's not going to happen since, as Seerah said, Prospecting requires a hardware event (clicking).

The best tool I've found for this is Expeller: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a.../expeller.aspx

I'm going to post this in a seperate thread but here's what I use :

1) Make a macro :

/cast Prospecting
/use <name of ore>

2) Make sure you put a /use statement for every kind of ore you prospect. It's not that hard you just have the macro open for editing , type "/use" -esc- then shift click the ore from your bags.

3) Put this on a free action bar button
4) For efficiency assign it a keybinding
5) Open up a bank or vendor
6) Click that keybinding / macro on action bar button
7) If it complains about not having enough of X then bank your incomplete stack (less than 5) or sell it to the vendor.
8) if you do sell incomplete stacks to a vendor remember to buy those herbs/ore back !

Note this macro will only work for stacks of 5 . This why you stand by a vendor or a bank - so you can clear your bag of that incomplete stack.

My friends and I have found this a great time saver - we've found it much easier to repeatedly click a key then anything else. Freeing us to do other things in the mean time (like watch TV or read a book while doing it )

You could also pair any of those macro's/one click addons that auto choose a stack with this: http://scientificsonline.com/product.asp_Q_pn_E_3081521



***DISCLAIMER*** Technically, it's automation and therefore frowned upon

Actually enchantrix takes care of this ..somewhat.
If you have the auctioneer suite make sure enchantrix is set to scan the bags for disenchantable items under automation.
It will also look for herbs to mill and ores to prospect if you have those abilities.
You still have to click a button but you don't have to sift through your bags for stuff at least, it just pops up almost as soon as you have enough of an item in your bags to do it.

edited to add, if your also enchanting be carefull you dont take something valuable apart thats in your bags

I know what you mean i make my gold off Blackfallow Ink and i go through about 20,000 herbs at a time so that's about half a days work of clicking.
