Logitech MX550 Revolution Keyboard and mouse combo

I've been searching forever to find a solution, a driver for the keyboard and mouse. I've found pay for solutions such as, steermouse but only for the mouse. I would really like to find some software that would enable me to use my Keyboard and mouse the their full potential. If you have this same set you probably already know my frustrations, you pay a good deal of money on your keyboard and mouse and can only use them and the base level.
If anyone has found a solution please let me know thank you.

Seeing that the Logitech MX550 Revolution Keyboard and mouse combo is a "Windows only" supported set up, I don't believe you would be able to use it on your MacOS partition.
I would think it would be fine for your Windows partition, tho don't hold me to it.
Good Luck.

Is there available for iMac OS X version 10.4.11 700 MHz Power PC G4 a wireless keyboard and mouse combo?

Is there a wireless keyboard and mouse combo anywhere available for iMac OS X version 10.4.11 700 MHz Power PC?

All the keyboards I'm finding require built-in Bluetooth, something G3 iMacs don't have. So you'd need to start with a Bluetooth USB adaptor like this:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/IOGear/GBU321/
Its specs says it works with Mac OS 10.3.9 or newer. The you should ba able to add a wireless board and/or mouse IF you find one that has support for a Mac OS level older than 10.5 or an Intel processor. Most current boards require 10.5.8, and Intel processor, or both.
The cost for all this could easily be 4-5X the used market value of a G3 iMac so please think this through carefully. A long USB extension cable might be a better option fo such an old computer.

My new mac mini doesn't detect my wireless keyboard and mouse from logitech

I recently bought the Logitech MK550 wireless keyboard and mouse combo for my late 2014 Mac mini. Basic functions work, however, when I try to add the keyboard and mouse in the System Preferences it can't find either one. So right now I have this great big keyboard that I can only use about half it's full functionality and an unassigned button on the mouse. Any ideas? Also, I would like to add an apple remote to my mini. I have one from my old iMac. Is this possible?

Try resetting the SMC.
Question #2 - I have no idea.

Keyboard and mouse freeze randomly

My keyboard and mouse freeze up for 2-4 seconds at seemingly random intervals. I could go for a couple hours without it happening, or like now, it has happened twice while writing this. If I'm typing something when it freezes, nothing I type while it's frozen ends up showing up, but if I had hit a key right when it froze, it will repeat itself until I press something else after it unfreezes. They keyboard and mouse both freeze at the same time, it's not one or the other. It has nothing to do with standby like the topic below...it can happen right after I boot up or anytime thereafter.
My hardware is an eMachines M6805 laptop (upgraded to 2GB of RAM) and just a basic Dell USB mouse and keyboard.
I tried searching the forums, but the search box on here searches the entire web for some reason even if I tell it to search TechNet, so I apologize if this has already been answered.

I just had my Desktop freeze whilst I was using Media Player minimised to the taskbar.
I came back to my PC and couldn't use the keyboard or mouse. I plugged in a wired USB mouse and this did not work either. I then used the mouse and keyboard buttons on my MCE remote and still nothing happened, actually something happened as my hard drive
became very busy, but there was nothing happening on screen. I had to reboot to get back to normal operation.
I use a Logitech Bluetooth MX500 keyboard and mouse and have been having problems since I had Windows 7, but thought it was the keyboard and mouse at fault. This is the first time that I have encountered this problem, but I have had problems with the keys
sticking, very annoying when you're in Visual Studio and it goes and deletes a load of code for you because the backspace key was the one that stuck. The cursor also randomly jumps lines occasionally and inserts text where I don't want it. This wouldn't be
such an issue if I was a touch typist and could look at the screen whilst typing, but I am not and only realise the errors when I have finished typing.
Anyway, Mine is a custom built PC(all drivers and windows fully up to date) which ran XP with zero problems:
Gigabyte mboard and graphics card (Nvidia) with I5 processor and 4GB ram.
If this was a USB hub Powersave issue, then I would still expect the hub to wake up when a new device was pugged in, so I'm going to count that fix out.
I'm not sure that the freezing was a mouse/keyboard fault, I suspect that this is more a video driver fault as the computer did become very busy doing something when I used the MCE remote, it's just the screen didn't update to show what it was doing.
I should have looked at the taskbar clock to see if the time had updated, I'll do that next time if it happens again.
I've disabled the Power Save options for the hub that controls the mouse and keyboard, perhaps this will stop the keys sticking and jumping around when I'm typing in Visual Studio.

My third party keyboard and mouse won't connect to my MacBook Pro

I recently purchased an Insignia keyboard and mouse combo. I'm trying to connect them to my MacBook Pro and they refuse to respond. On the box and online it said that this combo was Mac compatible. I am running OSX 10.9.4.

Sorry i should have mentioned that; i already have installed the drivers. I have the little boot camp console thingy and the display became to the right resolution after installing the drivers, so i know i have. Its something else, Windows based i think.

Replacing keyboard and mouse

I am trying to replace the wireless keyboard and mouse combo on my HP506Q Touchsmart with a Microsoft wireless combo. No matter what I do, the system will not respond to the new ones. Neither the new keyboard nor the new mouse will work. I have down loaded the newest drivers from Microsoft and installed them. I have tried the connect switches on both mouse and keyboard. I have removed and reinstalled the batteries from both. Amy suggestions?

Did you disconnect the little blue USB receiver under the body?
You should aslo be able to go into Control Panel -> Uninstall Programs and uninstall HP Keyboard. You can get your keyboard software back by Start -> PC Help & Tools, Recovery Manager.

New MX5500 Logitech Keyboard and Mouse Set.

Alright so i just got the new desktop set for my main rig. The MX5500 keyboard and mouse set from logitech. Always been a loyal fan of logitech and ALWAYS loved theere product. Though this is the first REAL buy for a rig since i've switched to linux. I pushed for the $160 rig, which i loved while at the store. Has a few features, like the (flip by button, or flip windows by side mouse button, AKA window vista features) That i know i will not get to work when im booted in linux, thats all fine, but a few as far as the media player and photo gallery keys i was wondering if there was a way to set them up to use Default media player set in linux and when booted in Windows the default in it, rather than just windows media player in vista and thus far nothing at all in linux. No BIG deal, just a good 6 keys i can't really take advantage of , regardless i still love the keyboard and mouse set with what it still can do and will enjoy the other features when booted in windows. But if there's a way anyone knows to do what i asked above it would be GREAT! Thanx -Peace

Run xev, press the keys and look at the output. Once you know the keycodes you can do anything you want with the keys using xbindkeys and also bind it to other keys/X11 features with xmodmap.

Why have my Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse suddenly become poky and erratic?

Hi, I'm running a new mac mini (Dec 2014) with 10.10.2 on it. Out of the blue today my Logitech wireless accessories (with unifying receiver) became very sluggish with overall slow response times and at times the mouse is completely unresponsive. It really was working just fine until today. I went out and bought a new mouse to see if that would rectify it - and I still have the same kind of odd mouse behavior.
What's different between today and yesterday? I installed Dropbox and the new Microsoft '16 suite. I can't imagine that those two suites would impact a keyboard and mouse. I even did a refresh of the O.S. Any suggestions?

Thank you for trying to assist me Bob. Here's my EtreCheck output.

Can't use Filevault 2 with Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

Am I the only one who can't get File Vault 2 to work with a wireless keyboard and mouse? It seems that the "Recovery Partition" of Lion which you have to log into in order to enable File Vault 2 doesn't support BlueTooth devices so it's impossible to log in and start the encryption process. And after using a USB keyboard to do the encryption, I now can't log onto the encrypted disk for the same reason.
I can't believe that nobody else has noticed this, so what am I doing wrong?
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem; I have an original Apple Wireless keyboard (the older, full-size white and clear plastic keyboard), and a Logitech MX-Revolution mouse, both work just fine using the recovery partition, but don't respond at all for the FileVault login prompt.
The mouse just doesn't do anything, and if others are getting USB devices to work then my mouse should work since it has its own wireless receiver, masquerading as a USB device, but it's just frozen in place. Meanwhile my keyboard appears to connect normally, but the login screen is completely unresponsive, pressing caps-lock doesn't cause the caps-lock button to light up, even though I know the keyboard works just fine.
Considering the push for more wireless by default it seems odd that this problem exists, especially when my devices all work perfectly fine for selecting start-up disk, starting up from CD and so-on. Does anyone have a more concrete fix for this? FileVault 2 was one of the features I was really looking forward to but I can't even properly enable it, I'm just fortunate that Lion at least stops the process if you don't log-in successfully the first time.
As a side note; is the same pre-boot login required if you enable FileVault encryption on a non start-up volume? If not, at what point does the volume become available? I'm hoping to separate my OS and user folders onto my SSD and regular HDs respectively, but if I enable FileVault for my HDs only, will I still need the pre-boot login?

Why don't my Apple USB keyboard and mouse work in Win XP after bootcamp driver installed

Hey there,
I just installed Win XP Pro + SP2 using Bootcamp 3.0 on my Mac Pro 1.1 (2006) which is running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). The Win XP installation went flawlessly and everything seemed to be working OK (mouse & keyboard were fine) until I installed the Bootcamp drivers from my OS X installation DVD. The installation didn't report any problems, but when it was finished, the keyboard (Apple USB keyboard) and mouse (Logitech USB mouse) stopped responding. No power to the mouse at all makes me believe that it is actually the USB drivers themselves that have failed. Rebooting WinXP didn't solve the problem - it boots WinXP just fine (and fast!), shows the Bootcamp Help screen, but no mouse or keyboard, a.k.a., USB, response.
Can I recover from this somehow?
Help please?
Thanks,
Ron

Problem solved.
It seems that the boot camp 3.0 drivers installed from my 10.6.8 DVD weren't sufficient. I repeated the install from scratch, but rather than rebooting as soon as the BC 3.0 drivers were installed, I allowed the Apple Update utility to D/L and install the BC 3.1 and 3.2 updates. Viola! Everything works brilliantly. My Mac Pro is now the best Windows PC I have ever owned

Macbook pro does not respond to bluetooth keyboard and mouse at login screen

i've seen this question floating around and i don't think i've found one that has been resolved. i'm hoping someone may have an answer by now.
i do not have this issue when i boot into windows 7 (bootcamp) the macbook pro responds to keyboard input and mouse input immediately on the windows 7 login screen. when i boot into mac, there is no response from either. i've seen suggestions of waiting for 30 secods. i still get nothing after waiting for over a minute.
what i do right now is use the built-in touch pad and keyboard of the macbook pro to get past the login screen. once i'm logged in, i can see that the bluetooth devices are not yet connected (the three dots that go across the bluetooth symbol at the top right of the screen are not yet there). then after a while, maybe about half a minute, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse are connected and i can use them normally.
it is not a big deal but it is very annoying.
i am using a logitech bluetooth mouse (v740) and an adesso bluetooth keyboard (wkb-4000bm). i also tried an azio bluetooth keyboard and had the same issue. all these keyboards are made for mac.
thannks in advance.

just a correction, the keyboard and mouse don't always automatically reconnect once i'm logged in. most of the time i have to go click the bluetooth icon at the top right of my screen, select the mouse and then select "connect". i have to do the same to the keyboard.

N8 Which bluetooth keyboard and mouse ?

Hi Folks
I've had a n8 since last october and am ready for a keyboard with a mouse included or maybe a seperate mouse. I do like the idea of a small control I can use that could be the mouse for remote starting and stopping a movie I play via hdmi.
I did see a ovi app that could control the playing of a movie via a Wi remote. I do like this, havn't tried this.
Which bluetooth keyboard and maybe bt mouse do you reccomend ?
options maybe travel
unsupported on my knee
in the car , velcro to the steering wheel / office
on the table
I quite like standard key spacing so I don't have to relearn to type.
what effective range ?
does it survive the eventual coffee spill ?
Otherwise great phone I max it out.
Regards Don

Macbook Pro Keyboard and Mouse Unresponsive

I have a 2007 Macbook Pro that has been working wonderfully for several years. This evening, I restarted the computer for the first time in a couple days, and when reaching the login screen my keyboard and mouse were no longer working.
I forced a restart several times with the power button, but nothing changes. I am able to boot into safe mode using the shift key during startup, but even in safe mode the keyboard and mouse don't work.
Additionally, I can boot into my Windows Bootcamp installation by holding down the alt key during startup and the keyboard and mouse work fine there.
So clearly this is a software issue. Is it possible that my OSX installation got some sort of bug that is causing this? Is it possible to run the System Update for previously installed updates without access to the keyboard and mouse, and without being able to get past the login screen?
Unfortunately, external keyboards and mice don't work either, and everything works when booted into Windows

After reading several forums it is evident that there are problems with mouse and trackpad on OS 10.6, particularly the most recent updates. I find, for example, I could not rename folders or files using the trackpad but had to go to GET INFO and change names there. With a mouse the renaming of files and folders works fine. However, I just purchased a Logitech wireless mouse and if the computer goes into sleep mode when you wake it selection of menu items or windows becomes impossible. All one can do is force quit applications or do a forced restart. I'm trying different things. At first I had the mouse on a USB hub. I'm now going direct to the USB port. I've also shut off Bluetooth, since I noticed someone recommended that. Also, I'm not sure if it is the battery life on the mouse that can cause the problem, i.e. the battery running low quickly. If anyone else has any ideas please post or tell Apple to get off their behind and straighter this stuff out.

System Preferences: Could not load Keyboard and Mouse

Hi all, so after inadvertently reverting my Keyboard and Mouse PreferencePane to v3.0 (I'm currently on 10.4.11), my keyboard shortcuts are not being saved. I've tried countless ways to put the current version, 3.2, back into the PreferencePanes folder, repaired permissions and trashed the systempreferences.plist, but every time I open Sys Prefs again, Keyboard and Mouse cannot be loaded. I've tried installing the Pane using Pacifist which results in the same problem (using the 10.4.11 single, ie not combo update) and installing the single 10.4.11 update works, creating Keyboard and Mouse 3.2, but this Pane still cannot be loaded. If anyone has any idea how to make 3.2 work with the rest of my system- possibly with something related to Extensions? that's what started this problem- I would be extremely grateful.

Hi endingstart, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Use Disk Utility to Verify the HD first, then it appears to be time for An Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
