Logitech MX610 Laser Cordless Mouse

I have a Logitech MX610 Laser Cordless Mouse and I was wondering how well it will work on an Intel Core Duo/Core Duo 2 Imac with Apple's Drivers or one of these: Steermouse, USB Overdrive or any other mouse driver that works on the Intel Imacs.
Would you please tell me what driver you are using, how to get the driver, price and what mouse functions work; buttons, lights etc.? Are all of the mouse buttons reprogrammable?
Can you run drivers that are 32-bit on a 64-bit Core 2 Duo Imac? And are the drivers stable?
Can you turn off the mouse by the power button on the bottom and leave it for 2 min. and then turn it back on and it will work either immediatly or after 1-5 sec.?
Dell 4600, Windows XP Home   Windows XP  

no help, i'm afraid.
but noticed something similar about two months ago when i bought el cheapo microsoft mouse $18) at staples.
works fine, except that when we "wake up" the mac, SOMETIMES the mouse cursor isn't on the screen.
we have to unplug the mouse USB cable from the keyboard, plug it in again (doesn't matter which USB port we use) and then the mouse cursor shows up.
this problem only happens sometimes, but it's a regular thing.
i have tried shutting down the mac, rebooting. the problem persists.
this began happening after i went to OS 10.4.5, and AFTER i got that new mouse.
help, ayone?

  • I'm using a Logitech MX Laser cordless mouse...

    which has been fine for the last two years.  When I switched to Lion, suddenly the click-drag doesn't work.  If I left-click on something and start dragging, it drops the item after about a second. Almost like I am releasing the mouse button when I am not.  I know it isn't a battery or connection issue.  I created a guest accound and it seems to work fine on this new account.  But on the Admin account I cannot click and drag.  Any ideas?

    Some of the Command keys do work using the keyboard, Command-C and Command-V for copy and paste are 2 that do work.  But Command-F does not.
    You need to taap the wrench icon and choose Find from within its pop-up menu.
    You could post to Apple Feedback that you would like the Command-F sequence to work.

  • Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse with Vista 64-bit

    Has anyone used the Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse with Vista 64-bit.
    My MightyMouse works and I am looking for another mouse so I can use this one with my other MBP.
    Thanks.

    Hi-
    You can use it with any machine that will accept the receiver dongle.
    I have a wireless notebook Logitech that my daughter uses with a G4 tower. Fits her little hand better than the "desktop" versions.

  • Is Logitech G5 Laser Mouse Compatible with Mac mini?

    I am thinking of getting a Mac mini. I currently have a Logitech G5 laser mouse which I hope to keeping using after I get my mac mini. Does anyone know if G5 works well with Mac mini? Are there any known issues?
    Thanks.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    I use two older Logitechs (MX-500 and MX-510) with my Macs because I had difficulties (finger-coordinations) with the Mighty Mouse.
    You should not have any problems using them.
    However the additional buttons can not be configured by OSX, so if you want using them you can use the Logitech Control Center (works for me, but others have reported problems with it) of third-party software like SteerMouse to configure the buttons.

  • Logitech Cordless Mouse Suddenly Died On eMac Fine On G3iMac

    Yesterday I got back from my holiday and switched on my eMac.
    All was well for a few seconds and then the cursor froze. {Around that time the desktop went peculiar as though the F11 key had been pressed though this may have nothing to do with it}.
    I unplugged my Black Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse (which has worked perfectly for over a year) and substituted the original Apple mouse. Of course it worked.
    Thinking that the batteries might be weak, I put new ones in and pressed the "connect" buttons. Still nothing happened.
    I then plugged the Apple mouse into the spare USB socket on the keyboard and opened the System Profiler. The computer was recognising the Logitech Receiver that was plugged in.
    I have tried everything I can think of including restarting the computer but to no avail. I can't even find any Preference Files to trash! I have repaired the permissions.
    b I feared the mouse had suffered some fatal affliction but this morning when I plugged it into my G3 iMac it worked normally!
    I tried again on the eMac but it was completely dead.
    As the system Profiler recognises the presence of the receiver I can only guess that there must be some program conflict - but why would it occur so suddenly, especially as I have downloaded/installed nothing new recently?
    I would appreciate any helpful suggestions.

    Thanks JMVP.
    I forgot to mention that I had used Preferential Treatment. I also searched for mouse-related plists and found absolutely nothing.
    (I have never used the Logitech Control Centre software because once installed the cursor used to move normally but clicking on anything resulted in nothing happening! Logitech gave me a work-around but it was extremely complicated, involved delving deeply into the UNIX heart of the computer and seemed too risky to be worth trying. In any case the mouse worked perfectly by just plugging it in and relying on the native OSX software).
    Incidentally, whilst trying to get the cordless mouse to work with the eMac I moved the receiver all over the place just in case there were any reception black-spots or something in the room was causing interference - but that didn't help.
    I have now decided the simplest solution is to use the normal 3 button corded mouse (which had been connected to my G3iMac) on the eMac and the dodgy mouse can work happily with the G3.

  • TP Precision Wireless mouse vs. Laser Wireless mouse

    Hello!
    My nerves got totally dead after some time using a cable mouse from Genius. I decided to buy new, wireless one. I have few adepts, two of them belongs under Lenovo brand.
    Cheaper: Precision Wireless mouse: http://www.lenovoshop.cz/lenovo-mys-thinkpad-precision-wireless-mouse-1600dpi-cerna-midnight_i566926...
    More expensive: Laser Wireless mouse http://shop.lenovo.com/ISS_Static/ww/ag/merchandising/options/images/large/_460_0_0A36188_V1.jpg
    Which one would you reconmend? Do you have any experiences with one of them? Materials, noise, build quality? Have you been using both and can you say some pros/cons? Shall I rather choose Logitech? In my country, TP Wireless mouse is almost twice as expensive.
    Thank you and best wishes to upcoming New year!
    Skrble
    (Please, excuse my bad english, thank you)

    Hello
    both mice do have similar built quality (both have Thinkpad logo) and both follow same details (click sound, click travel etc.). So it is more about features and functions to decide.
    I would personally go with Laser mouse as Laser works on more surfaces and provides better tracking. That's also why it is a bit more expensive than Precision mouse.
    Hope this helps.

  • Cordless mouse not working

    G5 using OSX 10.4.11
    I have a Microsoft cordless mouse that was working but stopped. Arrow freezes on screen. A few times I removed battery and mouse worked until mouse was lifted from pad then stopped working at all. I have a Logitech cordless mouse that the arrow moves but the blinking bar stays stuck in the browser bar and you cannot click and use it anywhere else on the screen. The stock plug in Mac mouse that came with computer works fine. I tried different USB ports for plugging in both cordless mouse. Not working. All worked fine until computer crashed a week ago.
    Ideas? Thanks!

    No mouse appears in Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items. Microsoft mouse does not come with any drivers, you just plug in USB adapter and use. I do not think the Logitech came with a disk either. I searched Hard drive for logitech file and see none. I am at a loss.
    Logitech mouse left click stopped working, restarted computer and did not work at all after that (last week). Began to use Microsoft cordless and that worked for a week and now it is frozen.
    I do not have either LCCScrollEnhancer.ape from the Applications Enhancer folder in the user's library anywhere on my computer.

  • BootCamp Update 3.2.  .exe file, Windows 7 uninstallable with cordless mouse until drivers in.   What next then?

    Trying to get windows 7 to run under iMac. I am learning to fly and the best flight simulator (I'm told) is still FSX which does not run on the iMac which I made my main computer infrastructure last year.  And besides it's got the best screen in the house.  Before buying both a virgin copy of Windows 7 (expensive) and of FSX (ditto) I checked the forums and there are definitely people saying it works.
    My iMac has a cordless mouse and a cordless keyboard.  I have read that the latest software which makes these work is in BootCamp3.2. 
    I quote from the apple pdf on installing windows:
    Step 1 : Check for updates.  In Mac OS X go to http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp and check whether you need to update your software before you can install windows. 
    Yes I do.  Can't call that URL very helpful on file selection, but OK, I worked it out.  (Though could someone tell me if ALL intervening updates need to be applied.  I had no way of telling where the full set of updates was, so I had to assume installing the latest would work.)
    OK - so I need to install BootCamp_3.2_64-bit.exe
    But having downloaded it, if I run it it opens in a text editor.  Why is that?  Explanation will help.  But why is there nothing at Apple on this?  It's apple software. 
    Searching I found people sounding equally confused, and someone says you'll need to burn it to a disc.  That took a fair while too - but I did it.  I found the help on burning very poor.  It's hard to find how to put a file on a disk.  The defaults are all for music and films. (Tip - use Finder, not other options, when you put a blank disk in)
    So I now have the bootcamp upgrade file on a DVD.  I learn (slowly) that because it is a .exe it must be run from Windows.  But I have not got windows, that is what I am trying to load.  And when I load the Windows Disc I can't get very far, because it can't cope with a cordless mouse, until the drivers are upgraded.
    I am now worried that things will get worse, because the rest of the forums say you can't make Boot Camp Assistant work when there's already a partition made.  And, there is.  I made one before being trapped by a driverless cordless mouse.
    I have an iMac 2.93 Ghz Intel Core i7.  8Gb 1333 MHz DDR3.  ATI Radeon HD 5750.  A cordless mouse and keyboard.  I Bought Windows 7 Home edition 64 bit.    
    I'm a bit disillusioned.  I bought this hyper computer to run some number crunching simulations via an Oracle database.  The setting up was 10 - 20 times more difficult than setting up Oracle on my Dell laptop.  The simulations ran half as fast as on the laptop and appeared to be frying the iMac's own hard drive.  So I stopped.  I flirted with Times Ten - but it was unsuited to my codebase (not Apple's fault) and then gave up.  So this lovely computer is now used by my daughter to watch movies.
    This is the second attempt at doing something moderately serious, and both have been very disappointing.  If you think it's worth saving someone who is about to give up on Apple completely and leave this powerhouse to an idle life of Facebook, then your assistance will be sincerely appreciated.  It's been 6 hours, a very irritating six hours, so far.

    You really really do need to read the Windows 7 FAQ the Boot Camp 3.0 Installation and Setup guide for 10.6  and the Boot Camp 3.0 MacOS 10.6 FAQ  a couple of times to really get to know the whole picture.
    "Boot Camp" is just a basic set of WINDOWS drivers to run Apple hardware. You install Window first, via BCAssistant to start it, then after it finish's the install and restarts into Windows then you insert the "whatever you made disk" with the Boot Camp drivers on it, it should then give you an installer window, just like on the Mac side, if you want to "Run" it or "Open as a file". (Run it)
    The Apple Software Updater updates ALL the Apple files including BootCamp Assistant on the Mac, it updates the Boot Camp Assistant to look for the latest drivers to use when it gives you the option to download the files onto whatever you want to use to download onto.
    BTAssistant to partition the drive, then it will boot off the Windows installer, there is no more Mac control, it's ALL Windows now, have Windows format it the way you want, then it will finish by restarting into Windows, then you install the drivers while booted in Windows.
    You need a wired mouse AND keyboard just like the instructions said. If you have the earlier Magic Mouse then they suggest you plug it into the keyboard instead of the computer.
    If you partitioned like the instructions said, via Boot Camp Assistant, you can install Windows anytime you want, it won't forget it's there. YOU just have to remember where it is.
    If you do have problems with the partition then at the bottom of the instructions it tells you how to restore the partition back to normal then you can start over.

  • Boot-camp/Windows with cordless mouse and keyboard

    I am picking up my 27" quad core iMac tomorrow. In anticipation I bought the Pogue book on Snow Leopard. In it he says that you can't install Windows with the cordless mouse and keyboard but that once installed it can be used with the cordless mouse/keyboard. Will someone please tell me he is wrong .
    Thanks.
    Alan

    I used mine to install Windows. Worked just fine till the Apple Bluetooth drivers were installed, then I just had to connect a regular USB keyboard/mouse to pair the bluetooth keyboard and mouse again.
    One suggestion, after you install the Boot Camp drivers and plug in your USB keyboard/mouse, uninstall the "Apple Bluetooth" drivers (I believe there are two of them) and restart your computer. Let Windows automatically install generic drivers for the built in bluetooth, THEN pair your wireless keyboard and mouse. After that you can reinstall the Apple bluetooth drivers if you want, although I don't think it's particularly necessary. The generic drivers seem to work fine in my experience.
    You may run into trouble pairing your keyboard and mouse, if so, refer to the "Boot Camp" section on this site, there are millions of threads about it there.

  • My cordless mouse dosn't work when I have it plugged into a hub!?

    Hi. I have a cordless mouse plugged into a usb-hub in which I also have plugged in a midi-keyboard. When I launch on of the applications, logic or protools, the mouse can't keep up. I simply have to unplug the midi-keyboard to use the mouse again! One of my freinds haves a similar setup as mine and seems to have no problems at all plugged either devices into the same usb-hub! Any ideas how that can be? I only have a mouse, a midi-key and a logic key plugged into the usb-hub and nothing else.

    Okay - I get it.
    Although it doesn't really solve the immediate problem, I'm wondering why you're not using the internal bluetooth in your computer to run your cordless mouse. If the mouse isn't bluetooth compatible, why not just get one that is? The new cordless mighty mouse should be available in stores shortly - I'm told - and that would solve all of your problems.
    Good luck.

  • Having difficulties with my Magic Cordless Mouse

    I got home from a long trip last night and updated my software on my new i7 iMac.  Then, I needed to change the batteries on my cordless mouse.  Ever since, the mouse is recognized (I can move the cursor around the screen), but when I left click, nothing happens.  I CAN right click, however, and can control SOME things that way.  Any ideas what is going on?
    Please help!

    You may have a corrupt cache. Restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. If that still doesn't work then do both a iMac SMC and PRAM resets. And finally if those do not help then re-pair the mouse using:

  • Wireless Laser Comfort Mouse

    Just installed software and driver for
    Wireless Laser Comfort Mouse - Product Number XA965AA#Abb
    When I go to the HP Mouse Control Center it says "No device found"
    All the basic functions of the mouse work, left / right clicks and scroll but i can not configure any of the other buttons.
    I've look up the support for this mouse on the hp site and it's was less than helpful, only gave me the chance to download a quick start up leaflet, very useful!
    Any help anyone?????????

    Hello Guys:
              Did any one you go to the control pannel and click on mouse icon and opened it? Mouse Properties click on hardware your mouse that you just installed or connected shoud be listed. Right now you are using HID-compliant mouse. Witch is HP's mouse figuration. See if that works for you. I am not sure but the HP Keyboard may be restricting new mouse setting as well. I do know from my own experience when the keyboard faild do to corrupt software already in keyboard the mouse went as well. That is why HP sends both mouse , keyboard and blue tooth as a repaired set. I  also knew some body here on this forum replace his new store brand mouse and Keyboard as a set. Your mouse should have came with it's own blue tooth device. Try using it along with the one installed for HP's Keyboard see if your mouse works then. frrw

  • Trackpad being detected as Logitech PS/2 Wheel Mouse by X and kernel

  • Logitech MX900 Bluetooth Optical Mouse Retail

    I was going to buy the: Logitech MX900 Bluetooth Optical Mouse Retail but it says it's designed for Windows XP but nev er says anything about Mac OS X. Would it still work with Mac OS X?

    Kensington makes a really good full size bluetooth
    mouse: Kensington 72225 Pilot Mouse Bluetooth Mouse

    I was less the thrilled with this mouse- when it worked, it was sweet, but it frequently disconnected when idle, and its recognition on the Windows side of Bootcamp was about 30% of the time. Continually having to run through the bluetooth detection was tedious to say the least. I've been much happier with a logitect wireless USB mouse, which works every time (and is much cheaper).
