Wireless Logitech keyboard won't work

Hi guys,
I have a wireless Logitech diNovo edge keyboard that used to work fine. A few months ago it stopped working and I never bothered to look at it. The keyboard works fine in other PCs running Windows. When I plug it into the Archlinux box the keyboard never synchs to the bluetooth dongle (just blinks).
This is what happens when I plug the keyboard in (NOVATEK is a wired USB keyboard):

Anyone have a clue what's wrong? Thanks,

I also prefer to not run the dongle in bluetooth mode... it causes so many headaches.
There may be a better way to disable the bluetooth mode, but you can comment out the 'Logitech devices' rule in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/97-bluetooth-hid2hci.rules:
# Logitech devices
#KERNEL=="hiddev*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c70[345abce]|c71[34bc]", \
# RUN+="hid2hci --method=logitech-hid --devpath=%p"
Once you save the changes, simply replug your dongle, hit the connect buttons and it should work as if it is wired.
Whenever udev is upgraded, the rule file will be overwritten... you can add this to your /etc/pacman.conf to prevent it from being overwritten:
NoUpgrade = usr/lib/udev/rules.d/97-bluetooth-hid2hci.rules
If anyone knows of a better way to prevent the default udev rules from switching the dongle to HCI mode, please speak up
Just tried this, didn't work for me :-/
grr.

My wireless keyboard won't work for one of the users

All of a sudden the wireless keyboard stopped working for me, but it works when my wife logs in. I had to create a new account for myself and the keyboard now works. However, the keyboard won't work for my original account. Any thoughts?

Does it shows up as a device in your BT menu under the problematic user? Does it connect? If you delete it from your admin account and re-pair it, does it work?
There is a command called ioreg, which can help as well.
Here is sample output from ioreg -lw0 | grep -i keyboard

Wireless Logitech keyboard

If anybody has a positive experience of compatibility the K800 wireless Logitech keyboard with MAC OS X Version 10.7.3?
I connected the KB to Mac mini with "Unifing" (Logitech) software installed, but I do not have full functionality: I have no NumPad working. Some of keys respond not correctly. For example, there is no "point" key at the Russian layout.
I asked Logitech support for the driver and they told: "All Logitech products works on standard OS drivers and if you have any problems with it it is better to contact Apple..."
Below - my correspondence with the Logitech support:
Logitech 02/28/2012 10:35 AM Dear Aeksei Thank you for contacting Logitech's Customer Care. Sorry, but no one has experience K800 on the MAC OS X Version 10.7.3 Best advise to you is to contact apple. They might help you with drivers.   Kind Regards Denis M. Logitech Customer Care - Asia-Pacific
Aleksei Pariy     02/27/2012 08:47 PM Thank you for the prompt reply. First of all, I want to assure you that the keyboard itself is working. It works without any problems in Windows 7. Mac Mini also properly functioning, I believe. It had been just bought and tested true. But, the keyboard in Mac OS X ... When I try to change the keyboard type, system reports that the keyboard should be identified and invites to press the key, right to "left shift" key. Then the system prompts to select the keyboard type of the three options:
- ISO European
- ANSI U.S.
- JIS Japan
None of these options lets work NumPad. I have no NumPad working. Some of keys respond not correctly. For example, there is no "point" key at the Russian layout. Please let me know if anybody has a positive experience with the K800 an the MAC OS X Version 10.7.3?
Logitech 02/27/2012 03:38 PM Dear Aeksei Thank you for contacting Logitech's Customer Care. You can use your keyboard on Mac. Only we do not have Software for it, but it should work without any s/w. All Logitech products works on standard OS drivers and if you have any problems with it it is better to contact Apple of Microsoft. To test keyboard you can try it on different PC and if problem stays - it is hardware, if not - software.   Kind Regards Denis M. Logitech Customer Care - Asia-Pacific
Aleksei Pariy     02/26/2012 10:50 AM Could I use Your K800 keyboard with Mac Mini (OS X Lion) and Unifing software installed? I use it, but not complete functionality. Could You indicate me the driver.

I have tried advice of Klaus1at http://bit.ly/wgi53h
Unfortunately it does not help. Logitech Control Centre says: No Logitech Device Found. The KB and Logitech mouse are possible to be controled only thpough Unifing software.

I have an ipod 2g , The keyboard won't work! Or at least some of it's letters and numbers won't. please help i'm stuck with emojis

i have an ippd touch 2g , a part of my keyboard won't work , i can type letters but i can't type numbers . please help i'm stuck with emojis keyboard

Try restarting the iPod by holding down the lock and home button together and then slide the power button to turn it off and then wait 10 seconds and start it up again. If it is not a reset issue then it may be a hardware issue. Is your iPod damaged or have you dropped it recently? If it is a hardware problem then you may not be able to fix it. If your iPod has multitasking options like the new iOS devices, close out the app and then try again, it should reset your device to letters instead of emojis.

Updated laptop, now keyboard won't work. (G585)

Laptop is a few weeks old and I've only just got around to registering it. I couldn't register it until it had an update.
I've downloaded the update and now the keyboard won't work.
I can use keys to increase/decrease brightness of the screen, but nothing else.
I've already tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds, it's just made loading times worse.
Thanks for any help

hi VeeBee15,
Welcome to the Forums.
If you ran Windows Update and you get the issues on the keyboard can, you try to:
1. Disable Filter Keys (see this thread)
2. Boot into Safe Mode and see if the keyboard works. If the keyboard doesn't work, perform a System Restore in Safe Mode.
3. If System Restore doesn't work, perform a full factory restore by pressing the OneKey Recovery button.
Hope this helps

My wireless Apple keyboard won't connect, it just keeps blinking to pair, but nothing connects. I even tried hooking up another wireless I have and it does the same thing. Should I delete it and set it up again?

Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works after OSX update

After installing the latest OSX update yesterday (something about iChat encryption), Apple Bluetooth Keyboard no longer works with my iMac.
When I restarted the iMac after installation was completed, the iMac would no longer recognise my Bluetooth Apple wireless keyboard. I've tried with 2 other Apple wireless keyboards as well, but to no avail. None of them work with the iMac any longer. All 3 keyboards work with my PowerMac Quad G5 though.
The iMac "sees" the keyboards, but the pairing doesn't go through because the iMac doesn't seem to recognise the keystrokes when entering the pairing code.
I had to go out and buy myself a Microsoft wired keyboard to be able to restart the iMac (couldn't enter the login password without a keyboard).
My bluetooth mighty mouse works flawlessly though.
Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

iMac 24" 2.33GHz 3GB Mac OS X (10.4.8)

And yes I checked the batteries.

Wireless PRO Keyboard - no longer works on G4 10.4.11 but does on iMac 10.6

Wireless Pro keyboard will no longer pair with my wireless mouse. My G4 w/dongle, will recognize my wife's new iMac keyboard in another room. The Pro board works fine on the iMac, which confuses the dickens out of me?
Tried deleting pref files for Bluetooth, but all that did was get the iMac board to be found and now no longer finds the Pro board. The wireless mouse works fine.
Background: spilled some Cabernet on the Pro board, but I'm certain it didn't fry it. Took it apart and cleaned it as good as new, but neither of my bluetooth dongles (D-Link DBT-120s) are no longer able to get it to pair up?
Considering it has no issue at all with the iMac I'm wondering it the dongles are too old an architecture and I need to get a newer version of bluetooth adapter?

The Magic Mouse is not compatible with your operating system. See here, at the bottom:
http://www.apple.com/magicmouse/
I imagine that your new wireless keyboard, if it's Apple branded, is this one, which is also not compatible with your OS:
http://www.apple.com/keyboard/
Again, the system requirements are on that page. They should also have been on the boxes at the store or on the web site before you bought them.
You need to upgrade to either 10.5 (Leopard; call the Apple phone sales line, as there are no more available in stores) or 10.6 (Snow Leopard; available everywhere Mac software is sold).

Wireless logitech keyboard - unable to set keyboard map in X.

Hi,
i have a wireless usb keyboard - logitech k360. When I restart X i always have to manually set keyboard layout using "setxkbmap pl" which is little annoying.
My laptop keyboard has polish layout set correctly. I tried to modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/keyboard.conf, but cannot find the right options. Here's how it looks now:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbModel" "logii350"
Option "XkbLayout" "pl"
Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection
I've tried to remove option XkbModel, tried to set it to pc105 and now it is set to logii350 (I've searched through the /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/ to find my exact keyboard model but it isn't there).
Funny thing is, that when I type some polish character at my laptop keyboard, suddenly wireless keyboard gets good layout.
Any thoughts?

Is this one with the Logitech Unifying Device receiver?
There are a few threads on this forum about it defaulting to the default QWERTY layout (hell, I have an AZERTY layout - not just as a locale, the key prints are AZERTY). It seems to be some udev bug.

My macbook pro keyboard won't work or respond at all, other than that everything is working properly.

I have a macbook pro (i7) 13'', everything was working properly, but out of a sudden the keyboard is dead & won't respond to anything, now I can't login. I restarted it many times but still the same problem. Any suggestions??!!! help me out plssss.
Thanks so much..

I just went through something with my MacBook Pro 13" where I was using a USB mouse and a MIDI keyboard. I left the computer for a while and it went into sleep mode and when I came back to it, the machine was very slow to respond. I shut out of everything and rebooted only to find that neither my built-in trackpad or keyboard was working anymore. I plugged in my USB mouse and that worked, and then a USB keyboard and that worked, but no signal from my built-in peripherals.
I ran a disc repair, cleaned out everything I could, updated all software, etc. etc. -- nothing... until finally I read something about how Java can cause a problem. I then went into my advanced settings and deleted everything in Java and Flash security. Also making it very difficult for those two applications to save anything to my machine. Once I rebooted my keyboard and trackpad were fullly functional again.
Wanted to share this because it was such an unintuitive fix but my computer is back at full speed again.

My Macbook keyboard won't work and the computer is shutting down at random. Any advice?

I have a Macbook that is approximately 2 years old. It had water spilt on it but since then everything else is working fine.
The keyboard won't type at all, it did on the original start up after the water damage was assessed within the computer's shell. Now not at all. I'm using a USB keyboard for the time being.
Also, it shuts itself off at random. There is a dull click and the screen goes black, then when you attempt to restart it it loads a little and then it clicks and screen goes black again.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello Rach Ryan
First I would try closing the app from multitasking and then launching it again. To do that, double tap the Home button and then swipe up on the app to close it completely. If that does not work, then I would restart your iPhone.

Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

Wireless Mighty Mouse won't work properly with MacBook/tech support stumped

Hi. First post. Anyone heard of this problem? Appears to be location-sensitive. Problem described below, but first, short background...
Just bought entire Mac system after decades in corporate world with PC. Believed the TV ads that it would be simple. Already have been back to Mac store 6 times and have spent roughly 7 hours on phone with help line. Mac store even replaced Macbook entirely in case it was faulty logic board/Bluetooth circuit -- didn't help. Also, problem doesn't happen in store. So, to get to the point:
Wireless Mighty Mouse doesn't work properly when hooked up to Macbook -- herky-jerky, slow, unresponsive, sluggish, imprecise, intermittently better/worse. Went through a few Mighty Mouses and finally gave up; now using hardwire mouse and there's no problem. But before I return Mighty Mouse for refund, would like to see if there's a solution b/c I'd prefer wireless.
System is the latest little souped-up Macbook, 23" HD Cinema external monitor, external wireless Apple keyboard (which works fine), wireless Mighty Mouse (the culprit), Airport Express, HP printer. All brand new from local Mac store (Fifth Avenue, New York)... where the Genius counter folks have given up. I'm not convinced they believe me because (a) the problem doesn't occur there, and (b) after a couple of new Mighty Mouses, they finally just gave me a new Macbook to make me go away... but after going through the whole system setup once again, same problem. Have tried many different mousepads, BTW.
Tried all the stuff phone tech support suggested -- removing/installing/reinstalling software, etc. Airport works fine; using modem and printer connections there. Bluetooth works fine with keyboard. I've scouted around for intefering devices; even unplugged electrostatic loudspeakers and old tubed amps in living room (concrete wall separates rooms), unplugged hifi in same room, etc. On 40th floor of Manhattan hi-rise; concrete walls between neighbors. Have never had interference before with anything; previous PC system worked fine with Microsoft wireless (optical) mouse.
This is no longer urgent because hardwired Apple mouse works well. It's just mysterious.
Any thoughts?
Other than that, I like the Mac environment so far. Fifth Avenue store is cool, also, because it's open 24/7.

Hey, thanks! That was fast. I'm impressed by the Mac community.
This program helped my hardwired mouse, actually, and did give me wider parameters on the wireless mouse, but it didn't correct the herky-jerky/sluggishness -- actually amplified those problems.
