So I got some Gorilla mirror adhesive. That didn't work. Then I bought something else that didn't work. Then I got some PermaTex rear view mirror adhesive. So far it works great!
1) use the supplied wipe to clean the windshield
2) plop a drop of adhesive onto the button
3) hold tight against windshield for 30 seconds
I work for a local law enforcement agency our in-car camera is attached to the windshield with a rearview mirror button this is what I've found to hold them on. normally take a little bit of the glass with the button trying to remove it

Thanks! if the mirror falls off again, I'll give it a try
Clean the glass with 0000 steel wool (it doesn't scratch it) and then wipe the glass and button with denatured alcohol of 90% or higher twice and let it dry. Had the same issue you had until an old mechanic told me to use this technique, still hanging in there 3 years later. Since then I have been using steel wool to clean all my auto glass, works great.

I went through the whole mirror falling off thing including scrubbing the glass with acetone and/or alcohol, buffing it with steel wool and using three different brands of adhesive. I finally got it to stick using IC-2000 rubber toughened cyanoacrylate.
It's lasted most of a year now but your mileage will vary.
