Good bluetooth mouse for MacBook

I just got a MacBook Pro and I'm looking for a good bluetooth mouse. I use a Logitech Wireless Anywhere Mouse MX on my other computers and really like it, but it uses up one of the USB ports, which isn't the end of the world. But if there's a good blueetooth mouse out there I'd like to give it a try. I read some reviews on the Logitech V470 and it seems decent. It appears to go into power saving mode very quickly, which I think would be annoying. Any recommendations?

Perhaps I am missing something, but I can certainly recommend the Apple Magic Mouse. It works very neatly for me, and because it uses the same "stroking" gestures as on my trackpad, it's an easy transition between the two.
Looking at the Logitech mice to which you referred, the only advantage they may have is size - thought the MM is smaller than you think and very portable.

  • Best bluetooth laser mouses for macbook ??

    Hi,
    Could anyone suggest me couple of good bluetooth laser mouses for macbook ?
    I wish to have these features
    1).No transceiver
    2).It should support back button
    3).Battery Life Indicator (preferable)
    4).Price under 50 $ ..:)
    Anyone using "Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 " ??.. i read that mac users are having problem with using back button in this particular model .. is that true , if so, any workaround to overcome it ??
    Thanks ,
    Nelson

    Hey Nelson, I happen to use a logitech bluetooth travel mouse. I think the model is a M-RCQ142. It needs no transmitter, or receiver to be hooked up to the laptop. You just turn it on, and boom, you're working. It was under 50$, around 35 i think. It has a back button, its white, and works great. The Mac salesman at CompUsa sold it to me when i bought my Mac, But i think you should be able to find it at Best Buy or online.

  • Good tracking speed, CHEAP, big, quality and reliable mouse for macbook pro

    Hi mac people,
    I need a mouse for this all purposes:
    1)Reduce using the build in trackpad(to protect my built in trackpad)
    2)Sometime I want casual gaming(Simcity,ps1 game, some other point and shoot game)
    3)I 'm 183cm tall, so my hand is quite big, and I use my macbook pro as my primary pc, so need a all day use mouse(but I use my mac only about 3 hour a day).
    4)as mentioned in title.
    Thanks everyone for sharing advice!!!!!

    As everyone's hands are different, I'd suggest going to any store with computer accessories and simply trying the feel of whatever brands of mice they sell.

  • Bluetooth Chat for MacBook?

    Hello,
    I'm playing a a few nights at a festival this summer and will be using my macbook with Mainstage 2 for one of my keyboards. I could really do with getting an app for my macbook that would allow me to communicate with the techies (also using a macbook). 
    Is there an app which has the following features?
    - Free, or cheap
    - Does NOT require internet for use. (Communicates via bluetooth?)
    - Instant Messaging style chat windows- type and hit enter to send immediately.
    - No alert sounds OR sounds that can be muted completely.
    - Quick
    Thanks

    while i can't suggest a good pair for you to buy, i can suggest a pair that you definitely shouldn't buy. I bought the Sharper Image Bluetooth Speakers about a month ago for my MacBook, and for some reason they do not work (even though the manual says the speakers are compatible with Apple computers). Whenever I try to detect the speakers from my MacBook, it just says that they "do not have the necessary services." I've tried countless times to get support from the Sharper Image people, who have been of absolutely zero help--I'm guessing that it must be some Bluetooth compatibility issue with the MacBook. If anyone has suggestions on what I can do to fix this problem though, I'd be greatly appreciative!
    moral of the story--be very careful when buying Bluetooth items for your Mac...there seem to be a lot of unresolved issues with certain Bluetooh devices.

  • Bluetooth Headset for MacBook Pro

    Hi,
    Got a new 15" MacBook Pro a few weeks ago and have been having issues with my Nokia bluetooth headset when using with Skype. It connects ok but there seems to be alot of static in the earpiece when in use. I understand that there are some issues with different headsets but if anyone can recommend a good bluetooth headset that will work well with Skype it would be a great help.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    I have the Jaybird JB-200 bluetooth headphones. I have never used them with Skype, but I use them all of the time with my MacBook Pro and iPhone.

  • Forgot bluetooth passcode for macbook

    I haven't used my bluetooth on my MacBook for a few years and can't remember the passcode to connect to my Iphone 5.  How do I find it?

    Have you tried pairing your phone with another phone?
    If it pairs using any random code you can think of then the phone is working normally, if it doesn't pair then something is wrong.
    If it does pair then the problem is obviously with your pc.

  • Mouse for Macbook

    I am in need of a mouse to use with my Macbook. Can i use a mouse that connects via bluetooth? Do you suggest the Apple Mighty Mouse or a different one?
    Thanks much

    Yes, a bluetooth mouse is certainly an option, as is a USB mouse. I've used both at different times. The USB mouse has the advantage of not needing to use extra battery power if you're not plugged in, but the bluetooth mouse has the advantage of not needing a base or connector of some sort, if you're wireless. It's all personal preference.
    I'm currently using the Mighty Mouse (wireless) and like it very much, except when I have a little difficulty right-clicking. Sometimes it works and sometimes it's stubborn. <G>

  • Bluetooth mouse for ipad air 2

    I've never owned an Apple product before and just got an ipad air 2.  I bought a bluetooth mouse off of Amazon, it said it was compatible, however it does not pair.  After looking through the various discussion boards, I saw this addressed on older ios so my assumption is that it's the same, which indicated that no bluetooth mouse will work.  Is this correct?

    You need to contact whoever alleged that it's compatible.  I'm not aware of ANY mouse that's compatible.

  • Macbook Pro RD Bluetooth mouse for design in bootcamp

    Hy,
    I am looking for a good mouse to use in my CAD modelling in bootcamp as the Magic mouse does not work properly on Bootcamp, Windows 7.
    I usually went for gaming mices because they last longer and are better quality. Now I am interested in Razer Orochi 2013 bluetooth wireless mouse.
    It is a compact gaming mouse that can be conected eighter by wire or bluetooth and I think it would be a good choice.
    Did anyone experienced or own/owned this mice ?
    Or does anyone have better examples of good quality wireless mices for design ?
    Or if anyone knows how to make the magic mouse have a good respond to my comands in bootcamp ?
    Thank you
