Does Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop work with built-in BT?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if the Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop 7000 (keyboard and mouse bluetooth combo) is working with the built-in bluetooth module (Satellite A300-1QM). Any experience anyone? I'd like to know if I have to use the bluetooth dongle (usb) that comes with the wireless desktop or if I can use the built-in Toshiba bluetooth.
Thanks in advance,
bedhead.

Hi guys,
thank you for your replies. I can now confirm that it works with the built-in bluetooth!
Happy Happy Joy Joy!!
Cheers,
bedhead.

  • Mini wont recognize Microsoft keyboard (Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000

    Hello,
    I just purchased a Mac Mini, and tried to connect a Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 keyboard, one of their most advanced hardware options. The device connects to the Mac Mini via a single USB socket, and controls a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard via Bluetooth.
    When I turned the Mac Mini on for the first time, it recognized the mouse, but not the keyboard. After selecting the language, I get a warning that the keyboard is not recognized, then it goes to a page asking me to hit the key next to the left Shift key. But after I hit that key, it just sits there with the message "Identifying your keyboard..."
    I checked the Microsoft support site for any information about connecting the Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 to Mac equipment, but they don't seem to have any information on that topic. The device works fine with an older Windows XP system, without requiring any special drivers, so it should appear as a regular USB mouse & keyboard to the hardware.
    Is there any way to debug the installation of this device at boot-time, before it fails at the auto-detection?
    Thanks,
    TI

    Microsoft doesn't offer Mac support for that particular setup. Just XP and Vista support.
    I knows that one might think that "Bluetooth is Bluetooth..." - But I have found that that isn't the case.
    They do offer setups that are Mac-able. So does Kensington ... and others.

  • Why can i not get my ipad to recognize my wireless printer but my apple desktop works with it

    Why can I not get my ipad2 to print from my my wireless printer that i use for my apple desktop

    It's also possible that your wireless printer will work with a minor OS tweak if you're on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.x. Your Mac system must be on for printing to occur. (I haven't tested with Leopard 10.5.x or Lion 10.7.x)
    Details are found in this Apple Support Communities thread begun in November 2010
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
    I've been using it to print to a Canon MP560 wireless printer and an HP LaserJet 1320 USB-to-Mac printer from my wife's iPad 2 since the first day she received it for both photos and documents.  Duplex printing to the Canon does not seem to be supported.

  • Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 7000/8000 Trackpad

    Hey guys,
    Has anybody successfully got the trackpad built into the Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard 7000/8000 to work with OSX?
    Is there a program that can remap the keyboard/ trick OSX into thinking it's a form of input device similar to a mouse/ trackpad?
    Appreciate it!

    Since trackpads are basically mice that have been redesigned to work with the finger for input, you might initially try to see if your Keyboard and Mouse System Preference can control it. If not, Steer Mouse and USB Overdrive both may be able to access it. If neither can, Microsoft makes Intellimouse drivers that may work with their product. Just verify they are compatible with your second point version of your operating system, as I mentioned about the keyboard here:

  • Microsoft Wireless Laser desktop 6000

    I recently purchased the Microsoft Wireless Laser desktop 6000, and so far the only thing I have trouble with is that it doesn't have an eject button. And my G5 doesn't have a pinhole to eject manually, so the only way I can eject my CD drive is to hook up an apple keyboard from my co-workers computer. If anyone can enlighten me on an easier way, I would be most grateful. Maybe I'm overlooking something.

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    This forum is for feedback for Apple Discussions themselves. In future you should post in a more relevant forum to receive better advice.
    Here are two solutions:
    Within the Finder go to the View menu and choose Customize Toolbar this allows you to add an Eject button to each Finder window.
    Go to Macintosh HD > System > Library > Coreservices > Menu Extras > Eject.menu . Double click this to place an eject menu on the Menu Bar which persists in most applications. (Thanks to Ian Bickerstaffe for this tip!
    This can be removed by holding the Command/Apple key and dragging it out of the menu bar.

    How does Creative Cloud from teams work with staff who work in two locations i.e. in the office and home?

    There is no difference please be aware that each login is provided with two activations however.  If you wish to have a computer at both work and home activated though that is perfectly fine as long as your employer is ok with using company software at home.

    A wireless printer connects to the network just like your computer, or iPhone/iPad, etc. connects using wireless.
    The printer must be set up intially to scan to "find" available wireless networks, then your specific wireless network needs to be selected. Then the password for the network needs to be entered.
    Once the printer is configured to join the network, it is always connected to the network. No further configuration is required.

  • Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - Aways saying Autofill not available for this page even on pages I have used it before FF4 upgrade

    Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - It aways gives the message "Autofill not available for this page". This is happening on pages I have used Autofill on before upgrading to FF4 from Firefox 3.5.x

    i did not see a solution posted - I tired what I read. Going back to an old version may solve the problem but it is a stupid solution so I have yet to do that.
    I am on version 4 and autofil this does not work :
    Popular answer Go to this answer
    Uninstall version 5, then Google "google toolbar version 4", follow the link to FileHippo.com, and download and install the last version 4. When you reinstall it, make sure you turn off the option to perform automatic updates.

    Unless you enabled Find My iPad on it before it was stolen then there isn't any way to locate it. If you did enable it then you could try locating it either via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPad disabled on it.
    If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.
    If it was never registered to your account then it won't appear on your support profile : https://supportprofile.apple.com/
    The only other ways to find it that I know of (apart from on the actual device) are via the packaging, the backup on a computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4061

    Thanks!

    It should. First, turn on BlueTooth on the computer. In BT preferences be sure to check the option to look for all devices. Your remote should be picked up and a notice asking if you want to Pair it with the computer. Select Yes. Once it is paired it can be used to control your computer.
