HP Bluetooth Laser Mouse - anyone know how well it works with Leopard?

I have no doubt that it should connect fine to my Boot Camp Windows XP, but has anyone used this mouse with a MacBook? Is it a good mouse in general? What about Leopard - are all of it's buttons and functions available?
This is the mouse I am looking at : http://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-Bluetooth-Laser-Mouse-wireless/dp/B0013JX38S/ref=sr11?ie=UTF8&m=A3J0NC2R65XHPW&s=generic&qid=1223575379&sr=1-1

I got the HP mouse today, it looks very sleek and seems to connect effortlessly in Leopard and Tiger, has a good amount of hand support too. The only immediate concern is that the tracking speed seems to go from average to WOAH THERE!!! with little in between (like the shower that only has two settings - freezing cold or scolding hot). The tracking is very fine though so I guess smaller more refined movements may be in order. Haven't found how to make the scroll wheel sideways button action work yet, but at least I have a scroll wheel again.
I got this mainly for Windows gaming on the MacBook so the Windows drivers are probably much better and more refined for that purpose.

    Does anyone know how well the Intel Iris Pro installed on new 15" MacBook Pros performs using Photoshop and Lightroom?  I have seen some differing opinions out there, and I would rather not shell out the extra cash for the Nvidia if I don't have to. I mostly do photo editing for business and personal use. I have not used the 3D function in Photoshop, but I would like to know that I could.

  • Search - anyone know how it's worked out?

    Hi,
    We use site search on our website to show products (we can't use product search as we can't track what is being searched on - long story!).
    The site search results are a complete mess - does anyone know how it's worked out?
    I contacted support and they didn't know the algorithm.
    The issue is when we search the word "home spray" it doesn't show the products with home spray in the name first.
    Instead it ranks other products higher that don't even have home spray in the keyword, or in their name, or even in their description..
    BC support said it searches each word separately but again doesn't know whether it searches the keywords first or the description, or the tags etc. It makes no sense on why and how the results order is chosen. We tried even
    Does anyone know the ranking process for search results?

    Hi Liam. Yes
    The order they display is just so random and we've tried everything over the past few days to work out where the order comes from and why some are displayed first when the obvious choices are last.

  • Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation?

    Does anyone know how to use ATV with a keynote presentation? Is it possible?
    Thanks.

    Yes use Quicktime. Try to create a presentation that uses a widescreen aspect 1280 x 720 would be good, then export it at full quality which should give you a movie of 720p at 24 fps and should be just fine for the tv, if you have any problems with exporting it this way, you could try manual settings or simply run the export you made at full quality through itunes using advanced/create an Apple tv version.

    Hold down the mute button on the steering wheel until you hear,"Ready" and then say "Voice". That will bring up Siri.

  • Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

    Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

    Define "the Aperture files".
    Read this concise guide.
    The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals".  Your Originals are never altered.  What went in is what comes out.
    Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file.  This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture.  There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image.  Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved.  These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original.  They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
    When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture.  "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing".  The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple:  create them by exporting.  Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
    Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom.  Note that I say "transitioning".  You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information.  Adobe provides a tool and some instructions.  I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
    As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
    We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
    If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
    Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database.  Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager:  that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.

  • Hello, I cannot get my iPhone 4s to connect to any wifi. When I look in my settings it doesnt give me the option to turn it on. It is just grayed out. I am having the same issue with my bluetooth. Does anyone know how to fix this.

    Hello, I have just done a download of the new iPhone software and I am still having an issue with not being able to connect to WiFi or BlueTooth. Both of these under my settings are grayed out, so I have no option to even turn them on. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue.
    Thanks

    If this doesn't resolve the problem you have a phone with a hardware failure.

  • [Solved] Bluetooth headset. Anyone know how to set up?

    Hi.
    I have a Kinivo BTH220 Bluetooth headset, and I have no idea how to set it up in Linux.
    It appears that the wiki article is outdated and incomplete. Does anyone have Bluetooth working for them on the up to date packages?
    Last edited by *nixer (2013-11-21 00:54:43)

    blueman-git seems to have been dropped from the aur, and the blueman-bzr uses bluez4. I tried bluez4 with blueman-bzr but had several errors.
    I ended up downgrading the blueman package from the repo you posted, and blocked it from being upgraded. It didn't give the errors blueman-bzr did right off the bat. (ie - an error window when loading X)
    I added 'Enable=Source,Sink,Media,Socket' to my '/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf', and created the '/etc/asound.conf' with the required setting both per the wiki article. Obviously, I replaced the XXs with my headset address. (Note: the asound.conf file is installed by pulseaudio-alsa, so I had to manually create it.)
    After pairing, and connecting to the 'headset service' & 'audio sync' in blueman, I was able to receive output from both aplay and mpv (mplayer) successfully as per the wiki article.
    This will work for now as I really wanted it working for media playback, but I noticed all system sounds still played through the default speakers.
    Out of curiosity, I also tried connecting to it manually via hcitool, and bluez-simple-agent.
    # hcitool scan
    Scanning ...
    XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX Kinivo BTH220
    # bluez-simple-agent XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

  • Does anyone knows a way to work with various Pages documents at the same time, for example with a system of tabs to switch directly from one document to the other?

    Hello everyone,
    Working with numerous Apple Pages documents at the same time, I am looking for an efficient solution to switch faster from one document to the other. Integrating all them in a single framework, for exemple by switching from one to the other with a system of tabs would be of great help. Does anyone knows if such a possibility exists?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jean-Baptiste

    Thanks. It works and is very efficient. Not as much as a real system of tabs, but is allows to switch very fast between different documents. Only regret I would have is that it doesn't work with a document which is on full page mode. But that's already very helpful!
    You're very welcome but Peggy really gave you the answer already. 
    With regard to the full screen apps, I don't think Apple have yet worked out how to make them elegantly coexist with other apps.  The closest you can get is the four finger swipe gestures you may use on a trackpad if you have one (Mission Control and App Exposé).
    In fact nowadays I use the App Exposé (four finger swipe down gesture) more often than I use Command-Accent to move between documents in the same app (when not in full screen).  It also as the advantage of showing you thumbnails of recently opened documents below the ones already open within the app.  If you haven't tried it, I suggest you give it a whirl.
    I can't remember now but I think the four finger gestures are not enabled by default and you must switch them on in System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures.

    From here on out, unless you're dependent on the latest iDevices I'd look elsewhere for solutions, understandably Apple is looking out for Apple, but what I don't understand is how long they can ignore user's needs.

  • Does anyone know how to sync iCal with events from your iPod Touch?

    So I use my iPod for events more than I do with my MacBook. However I'm trying to sync iCal on my computer with the events on my iPod yet I haven't found a method that actaully works.
    Does anyone happen to know of an effective method where you can move events from your iPod to your MacBook?

    Update your Mac OSX to 10.9.3, syncing locally is back.

  • If anyone knows how to connect e7 with linux let m...

    sorry guys, it seems that the problems will never end,i just have a problem with my computer because i'm using linux and can't connect it with my phone .which is really not good for nokia,i hope they read what we write because from now on i'll not recomend nokia to any of my friends who wants to get nokia phons,if the company we are using and love won't give us what we are looking for or need then there are no need to have her products,does not deserve us as clients.one can destroy 10. that's what i believe.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Nokia's Ovi Suite (etc.) is as incompatible with Linux as diesel fuel in a petrol car, so let that idea go.  But there are Linux solutions.  For me, I have two 8 GB memory cards, both nearly full with mp3's, and all those songs were installed to the cards using drag-and-drop.  You don't necessarily need a software program, just Mass Storage mode.  I made a folder called "Music" in the root area of the card and moved all the band/singer folders (with individual album folders inside) there.  The Music Player should find them, or manually refresh the database.  The same thing should work for pictures, although there may be some differences between your E7 and my E73.
    As for the other functionality, I did a few web searches and found several "Suite" programs like Wammu, Xgnokki, and Nokuntu.  Search these forums for "Ubuntu" and you will find many other similar discussions.  /t5/PC-and-Mac-Software/Nokia-PC-Suite-Ubuntu/td-p/247373 is the one that got me started.  Wammu and Xgnokki should both be available through the Ubuntu Software Center (Applications ->  Ubuntu Software Center, unless they changed the menu layout).  Nokuntu looks really interesting, but you have to get it separately from http://sourceforge.net/projects/nokuntu/ .
    Embarrassingly, I have never used any of these programs, so you will have to experiment to see what works.  You won't have full Ovi Suite support, like firmware installs and maps downloads, but it's something.  If you realize that most Linux programmers are university students, or people like you and me, writing software for fun, I think this is quite acceptable.  Not to mention that large companies like Nokia aren't always forthcoming about how their own software works.  Linux can be a chaotic OS, so take it slowly don't expect everything to work as smoothly as commercial software.  If you have specific questions about programs like Wammu, most have their own web site and support system (i.e. http://wammu.eu/support/ ), or you could visit the Ubuntu forums http://ubuntuforums.org/ .  Or you could follow-up here.   I hope that helps!
