Logitech Mouse (MX 1000), Logitech Control Centre 2.3.1, Leopard and iTunes

I have installed Leopard ever since it came out in Late Oct. On my Mac mini (PPC), I use a logitech mouse (MX1000) with the latest software from Logitech. Everything was fine until this morning, whenever I use iTunes if I move my mouse pointer anywhere near the volume slider, it automatically moves the slider to the far left (no volume). So now I cannot control the volume or even skip tracks because as I mentioned, if the mouse pointer is anywhere near the volume slider it moves the slider.
I am wondering if anyone with a similar setup of mine is experiencing the same problems as me.

Hi, all!
Just a "me, too" to add to oceans' comments about SteerMouse.
I tried then purchased it recently, primarily because it provides what I consider superior mouse tracking speed/acceleration control for my Apple wireless mouse, well beyond the built-in drivers. When I switch to an older Logitech mouse (OpticalMouse11), SteerMouse enables some handy programmable functions I'd never been able to manage before. Thus, worth it to me... [1] 
Of course, the new Logitech Control Center 2.0.0 is free, so I'd suggest trying both to evaluate what provides acceptable performance.
Regards,
Dean
[1] I'd guess the tried-and-true USB Overdrive would also be excellent for this case; I simply haven't tried recent versions because Bluetooth support hasn't been added yet. But it's been the favorite of many Mac folks for years.

  • Logitech, Snow Leopard. and kernel panics: who's the culprit?

    Up until this morning, I'd been considering this a Logitech issue, but their tech support just emailed me blaming Apple, so I'm posting it here.
    With versions 3.1, 3.2, and now 3.3 of the Logitech Control Center (driver software for mice and keyboards), I've consistently seen kernel panics fly by my verbose login, always at odds with iokit:
    6/26/10 7:24:43 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily(4.0.2)@0x8623d000
    6/26/10 7:24:43 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOHIDFamily(1.6.4)@0x85ff6000
    6/26/10 7:24:43 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBHIDDriver(4.0.2)@0x86865000
    The computer always finishes starting up, and it doesn't appear to crash anything after it does so. That makes it more of a curiosity than a crisis, I suppose, but at the same time, no kernel panic is a good kernel panic, right? It has to be compromising the system in some way, so I'd like to get to the bottom of it.
    I like Logitech products, so my theory was that the release of Snow Leopard a couple years ago had simply caught them off guard, and that they might need version or two to get their software to play nicely with 10.4. But the recently released 3.3 of the LCC generates the exact same panics.
    So I emailed Logitech support. A charmingly named "Ms. Valentine" quickly responded, but embedded in form language, she told me to "Please contact you computer manufacturer, because this is Internal Fatal Error."
    So 1) is this in fact an Apple problem, or the passing of a buck? and 2) whoever's to blame, is this kernel panic anything to worry about?
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts and theories.

    Perhaps I should add some more detail. If you verbose login, the startup process is detailed in code on your screen. In this case, so many "backtrace (with dependencies)" cycles are detailed that they do indeed fly by. The full detail of each cycle:
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel Trying to change a collection in the registry
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel Backtrace 0x4ff608 0x4ff3aa 0xa0269d 0x9f803a 0xa023ef 0xa023ac 0xa02e01
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel Kernel Extensions in backtrace (with dependencies):
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel com.Logitech.Control Center.HID Driver(3.3.0)@0x9e9000->0xa13fff
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBFamily(4.0.2)@0x976000
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOHIDFamily(1.6.4)@0x9a7000
    6/27/10 12:59:52 PM kernel dependency: com.apple.iokit.IOUSBHIDDriver(4.0.2)@0x9e3000
    Most of the folks I've read discussing this issue have called this a kernel panic, but maybe they're using the term loosely.
    In any case, the question remains: is this persistent issue an OSX one, or a Logitech one; and either way, is it compromising anything?

  • The control centre and notification centre on my iPad 3 running iOS 7 is not translucent, The control centre and notification centre on my iPad 3 running iOS 7 is not translucent

    Apple told us that in the new iOS 7, menus such as the control centre and notification will be translucent, and allows users to see to some extent content concealed behind the menus.
    I've update my iPad 3 to iOS 7.0.3. The menus (Notification centre, Control centre etc...) are not translucent, at all.
    Control centre is completely greyed out, and I can't see anything behind the menu when called up.
    Notification centre is similarly completely blacked out, though to a small extent I can see some content behind notification centre.
    I've seen in video reviews of iOS 7 that notification centre and control centre are both close to being clear, and take up the colour of content behind them.
    My iPad 3 does not display such aesthetics.
    I know that some of you will say that I should turn off 'increase contrast', but that's not the case, since I've already turned it off.
    The issue was already present when I update from iOS 6 to iOS 7.0.2, and the problem was carried over to iOS 7.0.3, in which I thought the issue would be rectified.
    Is anyone else finding this issue present on their devices?
    Has anyone found a fix yet?
    Thanks!

    Sadly, the iPad 3rd Generation does not recieve the blur/translucency effects which you are mentioning in iOS 7. (The reasoning for this situation is most likely listed below.)
    1.) The difference in processing power between the iPad 3rd generation & iPad 4th generation, (The 4th Generation recieves these visual capabillities while the iPad 3rd Generation isn't capable of producing the effects).
    2.) Marketing issues in which Apple prefers consumers to purchase a newer model instead of something older.
    Turning on the 'Increase Contrast' option is Settings will on make the Notification Center & Control Center completely opaque. This setting is used to make text legibillity higher.
    I hope that this answers your question, if you have anymore questions, just ask. Enjoy your iPad (:

  • Does Logitech Control Center crash my MacBook?

    Dear All,
    just a question - Yesterday I installed the Logitech Control Center (2.2.2) together with my new VX Revolution mouse. Besides the fact that I love this mouse my computer crashed two times in the last two days.
    The only option was to switch it off and on again (I never had this before - thanks to Apple!!!)
    Did anyone else see a similar problem?
    Thanks a lot
    Albert

    Logitech is first and foremost a PC oriented provider. They have really neat toys that we Mac users want. It has been long since known for years Logitech is late in developing for the Mac equivalent or keeping up on updates. But we still suck up all their gear that will even remotely work on our machines and suffer through the mostly antiquated poorly developed software that is sometimes needed to get all the features for your device. I have had the same problems with earlier versions of LCC, but back then it was not as important to have the latest version because the features were the same across many versions and you could find one, I have used many versions that were severely old, that did you the least amount of damage and still get your mouse to work nicely. Even sometimes not even running LCC and letting the Mac Prefs run the device was on the only way to get things to work.
    The MX Rev, of which they sent me one (for free) to make up for the 5 MX 1000's that died prior to the ends of there times, I love it. But in the first release the Mac LCC was limited as to how the many services that were available to the buttons, I still muddled on with my cool new toy. A while later I mysteriously received a questionnaire asking what I would like to see in the next (2.2.2) version of the LCC. I mentioned extended and equal options for all buttons and had some personal requests as well. Well in the next, current, release there was what I wanted. Woo Hoo! BUT as with all first releases of the LCC it has its bugs. I have been for the most part, spared any complications due to the LCC and have not had to revert to an earlier version, loosing features. BUT I have been having severe and bizarre OS problems since updating to 10.4.10 and the first place I headed was the LCC and fortunately that was not the problem. As mentioned before Logitech is not always forthright on the up take in maintaining their Mac software and Logitech will say that it is compatible for that OS, but it's the same version as before and was never fully acclimated for the update. I have spoken with their "off shore" tech support and when I was able to finally get my problem across, scrolling in iTunes (7.2 - scrolling reverses at high spin) they were at a complete loss, escalated it and I have yet to hear back. It's been months.
    Unfortunately, the only way to get through the problems is to revert, but at the moment you loose many nice and functional features. I have had to contemplate this myself a couple of times. But if I remember, it was listed that you were running 10.4.10. That's your main problem.
    SO to get to my point, 10.4.10 has jacked up a lot. I spent a large amount of time reverting many machines back to 10.4.9 or earlier, because 10.4.10 just does not want to play well and has caused many new and very bizarre problems. And this OS reversion was not a typical process. It took at least a 7-Pass wipe to completely clear the drives, otherwise there were files left on the drives that interfered with the new install and you were no better off with the new retro install.
    I am marginally back to 10.4.9, mostly limping and currently talking to Apple in detail to investigate what is going on and am running the LCC 2.2.2 with no apparent problems . . . . yet. Or that have been traced to it as a hindrance in my Frankensteined install of 10.4.9.
    Since you are running 10.4.10, I would confidently say that there is your problem. Only because I have had many really weird things happen since and after 10.4.10 and reverting to 10.4.9 has carried residual problems that only surfaced in 10.4.10. But LCC 2.2.2 is functioning good for the most part back in 10.4.9. Most to the time they will show the compatibility range of the LCC, but this time, it's "Mac® OSX 10.3.9-10.4.'x'". x = ? The last I saw was that LCC 2.2.2 was only rated to 10.4.9.
    I hope this is food for thought can help your investigation, if not help you understand why there may be problem.

  • Mac not starting up after installing Logitech Control Center

    Hello,
    Since I installed Logitech Control Center I am not able to start my Macbook.
    The single mode revealed issues mentionning Logitech classes. The disk tool is not able to repair the disk.
    Booting on a snow leopard CD and using Disk Tool from there gives the same results.
    Invalid Node Structure is the given message.
    Would you have any idea on how I can fix this?
    At least is there any way to backup some files? (I didn t succeed to copy/paste files in the Disk Tool)
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    It likely that DiskWarrior or Drive Genius might repair it.
    Other than that, get an external drive, install OSX on it, boot with the Option/alt ket held down, & on 1st boot from the external & putting your info in, avail yourself of the Migration Assistant offer, se how much it can migrate off your internal drive.

  • Control Centre - doesn't retain settings

    The version of Control Centre (2.5.060) on my mother board (P67a-c43,  bios v1.19, 20120801) doesn't retain settings.  In fact what would appear to be the "apply" button is showing as blank.
    Recently I reverted to an older version of the bios because of other problems.  I seem to remember that when I was using the very latest bios before I reverted to an older one at least the green power settings seemed to be working.
    I notice on other posts that this problem of not being able to "apply" settings or retaining settings seems to be a bug that has never been fixed.
    I wonder, is this still the case.  Is there any solution?

    Thanks for the suggestion.  My bios version shows "auto" and a also atarget cpu temperature.  When I tried it at a target of 60C and ran the cpu flat out the cpu temp was nearly 70c.  So, knowing that the actual is overshooting the target temp, one way forward is to set the target quite a bit lower than than the actual desired temp.
    I think this is simple if inelegant way of solving the problem and I'll probably adopt this mainly because it is so simple.
    But surely to have to do this because Control Centre doesn't work and because the alternative  bios method of temperature control is inaccurate does not do MSI any great credit.

    Hi,
    Have you checked in the Device Manager to see if all drivers are installed since upgrading? (look for yellow exclamation points)
    Uninstall the AMD driver and catalyst control center. Install the version  located in the download section of the web support portal for your sleekbook.It will install both driver (intel and AMD) and also switchable graphics capability if it previously existed.

  • Disappointed with iOS 7 control centre

    I like everyone else was expecting a lot out of iOS 7. Definitely apple lived up with half of my expectation by adding new designs, new icons etc etc. but one thing that really got me disheartened was the control centre. I mean its cool that they added some toggles and shortcuts, but theres so much more that could have been done. Data toggle, 3g toggle, location toggle, hotspot toggle they are essential for almost all of us. Its really tedious to go back to the entire settings procedure every time we need to turn them on or off. These options are already present in other platforms since ages. And apple omitted them despite of having the space and opportunity to add them. And another vital omission was the Facebook and Twitter quick post widget. It was a really helpful part of the iOS 6. & i feel it should have been placed in the control centre. So i hope apple reads my post and takes these things into consideration for future development of iOS.

  • I can't open the control centre with a Griffin Survivor Case on my iPhone 5.

    The title says it all really. The plastic of the case ends really close to the screen and there is an inbuilt screen protector. This means I can't register touch on the bottom edge of the screen, which is apparently where you have to swipe to open the control centre. I have no problems opening the notifications, swiping down from the top.
    Does anyone alse have this problem, which the same or different cases? I know there are similar issues with Otterbox cases too.
    I hope Apple will notice the problem and make a fix soon. It should be simple enough - just move the swipe spot up a little like the one at the top of the screen.

    I have the OtterBox Armor case which has a similar design and thus problem.  After much practice I can now open CC with about 3 or 4 attempts.  Much better than when I started and thought it just couldn't be done.  I really have to start at the exact middle of the bottom of where the screen meets the case.
