Blue tooth Mac mouse disconnect

My blue tooth Mac mouse disconnect very often, even I switch to new battery. OS 10.8.3
Any solution?

Correction: its the Mighty Mouse. i have tried two new apple mice and the following is the case;I can set the left side as the secondary contextual click, and it works. However, the right side will not work except as the primary. This could not be only me.

Blue Tooth Mighty Mouse compatability?

I've been needing a wireless mouse for a while, preferably blue tooth, the new mighty mouse and one logitech mouse are the only blue tooth mouses I've ever seen with more than just left and right click and scroll, but the logitech one was discontinued. I really want to get this now, but I need a mouse for gaming in bootcamp and I've heard blue tooth doesn't work or something, it appears to work when I'm in XP but I don't have anything Blue Tooth to test it. second even if blue tooth wasn't a problem it doesn't say under the Mighty Mouse page if it supports windows.
does anyone know if it could work in XP on a macbook too? (maybe a little soon to ask questions about it)

Generally speaking Bluetooth is not fully supported under Boot Camp. So in that regard it may not work correctly. I did attached a Logitech MX900 Bluettoh mouse under Boot Camp and everything seemed fine whereas my Apple Wireless keybaord didn't want to work. So really your milage may vary.
The thing with the new Mighty Mouse is that it may require specific drivers for you to be able to configure the additional buttons. If this is the case then it won't work as Apple will need to provide those drivers.
If gaming is important I would go for a USB wireless mouse so you are able to fully configure the mouse and install its software under Windows.

Mac Blue Tooth Mini Mouse Right Click Failure

After installing 10.5.1, my Logitech MX 310 optical mouse froze the system, and I found there was an incompatibility without a patch as yet.
The reason I used the Logitech is that no matter what I do with the Mac Mini mouse (preferences reset, reinstall batteries) I can not get the right click contextual menu feature to work but one in 20 tries. I am not the only one.

Apple Blue Tooth Mouse & Keyboard will not Wake Mac Pro while in Vista

I am running Vista Ultimate via Boot Camp OSX Leopard. I have a MAC Pro with apple blue tooth mouse and keyboard.
When the computer sleeps while in Vista, neither the mouse or keyboard will wake the computer. The only way to wake the computer while in Vista is to press the power button the MAC Pro.
After I wake the computer via the power button, the keyboard is unresponsive for about 2 minutes. Turning the power on and off on the keyboard does not speed up the process. The same thing happens intermittently when rebooting into Vista.
AppleCare says it's a Vista problem. Microsoft tech support says it's an Apple driver problem. Nice.
The keyboard and mouse do wake the computer when in Leopard.

Were you ever able to find a resolution to this issue? I am seeing the same perplexing grayed out box in device manager. In my case I'm using a MS Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and my machine is a Mini.
For anyone else who might happen upon this post, the exact click sequence is:
Device Manager -> Bluetooth Radios -> Apple Built-in Bluetooth -> Power Management

Magic Mouse disconnect wakes up my Mac

There seems to be a bug in 10.6.7 related to the fact that after my Mac goes to sleep. After a little while it'd wake up and display a "Connection Lost" message related to my Magic Mouse. Has anyone else noticed that? I have disabled the option of allowing this bluetooth device to wake up the mac and I'll see how that goes.

After becoming annoyed with the disconnecting magic mice after the upgrade to 10.6.7 - I tried the following and it seems to have corrected the problem. In my scenario I had two magic mice - one for the iMac and a second magic mouse shared between a MacBook Pro and a fairly new MacBook Air. Both mice had the same device name - which was never a problem prior to 10.6.7 - and both worked correctly - provided that I was careful to ensure that the shared mouse was not allowed to connect to the MacBook Air when it was being used on the MacBook Pro - and vice-versa.
1) I shut off both mice.
2) Opened Blue Tooth Preferences on all 3 Macs and deleted the existing mouse pairing for the mouse on each machine (iMac, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro).
3) Turned on the mouse on the iMac - and paired it to the iMac - and allowed it to receive it default name.
4) Clicked the gear and renamed the magic mouse to "My iMac Mouse" - so that it had a unique name.
5) Turned on the mouse on the MacBook Pro - and repaired it the MacBook Pro. Clicked on the gear in bluetooth preferences and renamed to mouse to "My MacBook Mouse".
6) Did not pair either of the mice to the MacBook Air (I assume this had nothing to do with the issue at hand and will pair the MacBook Pro magic mouse to the MacBook Air later.
Since repairing the mice - I have not experienced the disconnect/reconnect - to the best of my knowledge - and I was receiving it previously on all 3 Macs several times a day.
I suspect it is the deleting and repairing of each Magic Mouse that appears to have solved the problem. I don't believe that providing a unique name for each mouse had anything to do with fixing the problem. I will post back if I encounter the problem again.

My Apple blue tooth keyboard will not pair with my mac mini

My Apple wireless keyboard was paired with my Mac Mini. It is no longer paired. I have put in new Batteries. I have pressed the button on the top right hand section of the keyboard, the green led lights up briefly. The Blue Tooth set up assistant appears on screen and searches for the keyboard. I has brifly seen it but does not make a connection. The Magic moose is doing the same thing.

Hi Darrell,
If your Apple Bluetooth and keyboard are not paring to your Mac Mini, then take a look at the article below to walk you through some general troubleshooting to get it to pair and start working again. If you have not done so already, try looking form anything could be causing interference like cordless phones as well and thing metal between the keyboard and the Mac Mini.

Mighty Mouse and Blue tooth...Help me please

Hi,
I got the wireless mighty mouse, and I am able too get it to work with the blue tooth, but every time I turn off my mouse, or turn off my computer, it disconnects and I have to go through reconfiguring my mouse every time. Is there a way that every time I turn on my mouse it will automatically connect? It is really annoying having to go through the process of setting it up every time! Thanks!

Did you install the software that came with the mouse? Go into *System Preferences* and choose BlueTooth Under Settings be sure to check Discoverable Yo also might want to choose *Show Bluetooth in the menu bar*. This gives easy access to your settings and shows you when your mouse connects.
In the same window choose *Devices and be sure your mouse shows up in the *BlueTooth Device* window. In the second window you should see the status of the mouse. If you don't see any of this info configure your mouse. You should see this in the bottom window.
Paired: Yes
Configured: Yes
Favorite: Yes
Connected: Yes (this will only say yes if your mouse is on.
I never turn my mouse off. It will go to sleep to save power. If you wake up your computer just squeeze the mouse or press down to get it transmitting again. If you have done everything correctly the BlueTooth symbol in the menu bar will change to the symbol with a dashed line through it.
Hope this helps.

I just purchased a used wireless Mighty Mouse. Do I need to have Blue Tooth installed on my machine to use it?

Hey
So I just purchased a used wireless Mighty Mouse at a Goodwill very inexpensively on the 50/50 chance it would work. Right out of the gate I figured I might need to have Blue Tooth installed on my machine to use it, is this the case?
I have a Mac Pro Tower running 10.6.7, but I didn't opt for the Blue Tooth a few years ago when I purchased it. I knew I should've!
Thanks.

Well I purchased the Mac Pro in 2009 I believe. It could've been late 2008, but I can't quite remember. When I ordered it from the Apple store online I customized it. I had the amount of Ram I wanted put into it, and had two hard drives installed. While doing all of my customizations I could've opted to have the Blue Tooth card installed into the computer but for some reason I didn't see myself using it. I did get the generic wired mouse that came with the computer.

Blue tooth mouse doesn't work

A logitech m305 blue tooth mouse does not work on 15" Macbook Pro - works on the 12" however. Any suggestions for trouble shooting?

Right, the receiver was plugged into the USB port of the computer that I was trying to use the mouse with. And it worked on the 12" mbp and a mac desktop, but not the 15" mbp. So, I am not sure about anything. BTW, thanks for the Amazon picture showing the rf receiver. I will try to download a driver for the M305 onto the 15" some day.
Ok, it sounds like you have a handle on the situation. It's still strange that the mouse won't work at all on the 15" with the correct receiver installed. Usually the basic click and tracking functions will work even without special drivers. But, as you said, you do want to install the proper software for that mouse. Also make sure you try the reset button/process on the mouse. Once in awhile one of mine likes to be a bit finicky after I move from Mac to Mac, and I have to reset it (it "pairs" or establishes the connection between the mouse and receiver).

Did you ever find a resolutution to your issue? I have a similar issue after installing Mavericks where the Arris modem goes to sleep when my iMac does, even though other devices on the network are actively requesting data. For the time being, as long as the iMac doesn't sleep the network is fine.

Mac mini- replacing a damanaged blue tooth keyboard (computer is pw protected)

Blue Tooth and Mac Air

Hi, First time using the support page. I have a Blue Tooth mini speaker that worked easily with my Mac Air, until this week when it won't sync. It is the only Blue Tooth device I use (not very techno savvy :-)).
I have tried turning the speaker off and then turning it on when I try to sync... nothing seems to work.
Any thoughts?
Thanks so much!
