Magic mouse driver for windows 7

Hi Guys,
Im running windows 7 (64 bit) from bootcamp on my macbook (late 2008 aluminum). I have had a few error messages from windows telling my that W764 doesn't support this notebook but I have nevertheless managed to work quite comfortably on this OS. My problem is that I have not managed to install the drivers for my computer from bootcamp assistant (trying to do so results in the aforementioned error message); this is not really a problem unless I really value scrolling on my computer - which I do, since I am working on CAD drawings - could you guys help me out to get drivers for my magic mouse? Would also really appreciate addressing these error messages.
Thanks!

Which version of bootcamp drivers are you trying to install? If you are trying version 4, maybe try an earlier 3 series that still has MM support. Even if you get them installed, getting the MM to work is a pain. You have to replace the generic bluetooth driver in device manager with the apple one and then do some other tweaks to get it to connect. Lots of posts on this.

  • Magic Mouse Guide for Windows 7 and Vista,,,

    Hello All,
    I recieved my Magic Mouse and it works great under OSX but I couldn't get it working under Windows at all. Searching here and around the web, I've compiled a guide on how I got it working. Hopefully, Apple will release proper drivers in the future but for now, here is what I did:
    Turn mouse off...if you have already tried installing, remove the device and then turn the mouse off. To remove it, open Start, type "Devices" and press enter. Select "remove device"...Now let's get started:
    1) Update the Bluetooth Driver.
    Open Device Manager.
    Start > (Right Click Computer) > Properties. Click Device Manager in upper left of this window. Double click (Bluetooth Radios), Right click on "Generic Bluetooth" and select "Properties". Open the Driver tab and then select "Update Driver". Click "Browse my computer for driver software". On the next screen, towards the bottom, click on "Let me pick from a list of device drivers...". Uncheck "Show compatible hardware". Select "Apple" and then "Apple built in bluetooth". Done
    2)In the notification area of the task bar, right click on Bluetooth icon and select "Add a device". Turn on your mouse. It will show up on screen. Right click on the mouse icon. Select Properties. Select the "Services" tab and check the "Drivers for keyboard, mice, etc". The mouse may disappear from the screen since it's been added. Windows is still looking for other devices so click "Cancel".
    3) Disable power management for Bluetooth Radio. Open device manager, open Bluetooth Radios and right click on "Apple Bluetooth". Select the "Power Management". Uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".
    4) Reboot computer. Mouse should be working in Windows 7/Vista now.
    * If you reboot and your mouse is still not working, click on the mouse two or three times. On my system, the mouse will not begin working until I do this, every time I boot my system. *
    Hope this helps,
    Al

    if you go to
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL952
    then download this package
    and extract the AppleWirelessMouse.exe or AppleWirelessMouse64.exe
    you then can run this on your windows PC and execute this
    this enables scrolling functionality of the Magic Mouse
    do not execute the downloaded file directly because it will tell you it doesn't run on this computer ( which is logical because of pc hardware =/= Mac hardware )
    i hope it works for everybody
    for me it does..
    it recognizes my Magicg Mouse and i now also have scrolling enabled

  • Is apple's magic mouse compatible with windows that has Bluetooth?

    Is apple's magic mouse compatible with windows that has Bluetooth?

    I asked a similar question a few hours back and no answers yet. I think nobody knows since nobody has had the chance to test them. If previous releases are any indication, you'll probably get basic functionality because it is bluetooth, but for the advanced features or setting options you'll have to wait for a Windows driver, which can sometimes take a few months or more.

  • Simple question.  Will my Magic Mouse work in Windows 8 Boot Camp 5.1 (Mavericks)

    I think my question says it all.  My magic mouse is not working and will not pair with my Windows 8 Boot Camp install done from the Mavericks Boot Camp setup.  Should it work?  Does it not work?  Thanks.

    you don't mention what mac you have because I suspect that the bluetooth driver for windows only support 1 input at the time over bluetooth
    my magic trackpad works fine with bluetooth but my bluetooth mice require being run as usb device it can't connect using bluetooth at all

  • Discouraging magic mouse behavior in Windows

    Hi,
    I've got my 27" Mac running Windows XP Pro in Bootcamp mode. I love Mac's overall design, but I hate (HATE) wireless Magic Mouse bahavior:
    1. The first and most awful thing is scrolling. It's too sensitive, it's unpredictable and works whenever I don't need it. The mouse scrolls when I nearly touch the surface with the middle finger, sometimes I have a feeling that I don't even touch the surface and it still scrolls. Sometimes I just left-click and it scrolls. In some programs it's not a problem, just a slight scroll and nothing bad really happens. But in some other scrolling doesn't let me do my work - Photoshop, Illustrator, Corel Draw, Google Maps. And it happens 20+ times a day. I already teached myself to hold my hand like a Mantis, but it still happens.
    Please make a driver with sinsitivity adjustments. So it would scroll only when I really need it. It would also be good to restrict scrolling area to the middle or to make two finger scroll only (like on MacBook Pro).
    2. Right mouse click. In Corel Draw I frequently need to make a duplicate object by dragging an object and press right button while draggin. It's impossible with Magic mouse.
    3. Sudden mouse freezes. Sometimes it looks like your mouse is dead and it takes up to 30 seconds to wake up. It's so unpleasant and feels like you have lost control over your roght hand and make you panic. Please icrease mouse sleep timer and make it more visually clear that your mouse is speeping and not paralyzed...
    4. Battery life info - please redesign Bootcamp control panel to show keyboard and mouse battery levels and make some notifications about low level.
    5. Please make the same driver for windows as you have for Mac. Or make it possible for 3rd party developers to make such a driver.
    I love Magic Mouse (how it looks) and I don't want to replace it with some Logitec, but with 10$ Logitec I was 100% more efficient.

    Not sure if this will make you feel better but I have the exact same problems on my mac. Specifically in Photoshop, Illustrator, Final Cut Pro (which really ***** cause sideways scroll scrubs video so I'm constantly jumping back and forth 30-60 seconds!), Motion and Color. It's AMAZINGLY frustrating. I literally cannot use it anymore.
    I will admit though, it's the most accurate wireless mouse I have used.
    Apple! Can you please create an option in the preference pane where we can disable scrolling in certain applications!! PLEASE!!! And possibly to disable sideways scrolling all together. These are great features but until they're perfected please give us an "opt out" option.

  • How to install USB driver for Windows?

    I'm trying to connect my LG VS980 phone to a Windows XP computer. I'm having difficulty installing the USB driver.
    After following several false trails, I found what I think is the right file: on a "Product Support" page which says it's for a "G2 Verizon VS980," there's a button labeled, "Install the USB DRIVER / USB DRIVER for Windows / DOWNLOAD." I clicked the button and downloaded a file 8 MB file. Its name is LG. Not LG.exe or LG.msi or LG.zip. Just LG.
    When I double click the file, Windows quite reasonably asks me what program to use to run it. I don't know what program to use any more than Windows does.
    There's a link labeled "Instructions... LG G2 VS980 SOFTWARE UPDATE below the download button. When I click it, it loads instructions for installing software on the phone.
    Can anyone make sense of this for me?

    I'll so my best to answer the questions.
    >...what you're looking to do a transfer with...?
    Initially I want to download pictures taken with the phone's camera. I've considered other uses for a USB connection that I can explore once it's working. I'm puzzled by the question, though. Why should the type of data I want to transfer affect the fact that I can't find an installable driver? I wonder whether my question means the same thing to you as it does to me.
    Because photos and music are the basic media people want to transfer between their phones and computers. (Computers in this sense are laptops, desktops, note books etc.) So the question to you was valid.
    >Also, have you tried any other computers?
    No. Again, I'm puzzled. What difference would another computer make? Would I be able to find a download from one computer that I can't find from another? (Only by blind chance.) Might another computer be able to execute or load a file with no filetype? (Only if it has magical powers.)
    Different computers may work where the computer you own evidently does not work. It is good to check the connection of the device to another computer to rule that out. I will answer the obvious of different operating systems and how they function.
    >And which software version if your phone currently running?
    That question makes sense. Unfortunately I can't answer it. I've looked up how to find the version number, and the instructions tell me to select an "About phone" item in the Settings menu, which doesn't exist.
    Doesn't exist? open the Settings Menu go all the way to the bottom (scroll down) the last entry is "ABOUT PHONE" click it. It will give hardware and software versions operating system number etc. Its there trust me. My wife just bought this phone and loves it.
    >Often times, the device drivers you're prompted to install are supported solely by the computer's software.
    I'm not sure what you're saying here. Taken at face value, it's a trivial and obvious: any driver that one installs on any computing device is supported solely by (i.e., depends on) the device's software. But how does that relate to the question about the version of Android? Android runs on the phone; the driver has to run on the computer.
    You stated you are using an older Windows XP computer, I can tell you I hooked my wife's phone to our Windows 8.1 computer and no drivers were necessary. It came up with an option on the phone screen and I chose USB Mass Storage for the connection. This option is also in the phones settings. Read the manual it has loads of information form you to use.
    The device had a drive letter assigned and it was labeled LG-Network and once you double click it the folders for music, photos, etc. are all there. Via using windows manager you can simply do a copy and paste to and from the different folders and drives with ease.
    Good Luck

    HP Officejet 4255 driver for Windows 7, 32 bit.
    Driver is not in pull up list and not in OS(can't update OS basic). Almost all series are listed but 4200 series is missing. 
    After upgrade to Windows 7, it has become a problem. Some solution should be given.
    Can someone help?

    Ok, I found in the Net the drive 7uw706ww.zip, which is Version 6.1.4.2, while the updated version is 6.1.10.5 (7UW708WW).
    I tried again the GPS, and it wasn't working.
    Anyway, before downgrading, I tried to reinstall the new driver, downloading and installing the .exe instead going through System Update.
    Result: now GPS is working (same place, same conditions, just 5 minutes later)!
    Don't know where the difference is...

  • Lenovo Thinkpad 8 Wifi driver for Windows 10?

    I've installed Windows 10 Technical Preview on my Lenovo Thinkpad 8. It's been working pretty nicely, except for one thing: the Broadcom Wifi card driver (Broadcom BCM4324 Wireless LAN Driver). Since this doesn't work I have to use a USB antenna.
    This driver has gotten no update since the release of the Thinkpad 8! I tried running it in "Windows 8 compatibiliy mode" and that still doen't work. Does anŷone know of a possible way to make it work (either with an update, or an older driver in compatibility mode)? Any idea or suggestion (or word from Broadcom) is welcome!

    I had the same problem and installed the Win 8.1 version of the driver.
    First deinstall the microsoft driver, download the driver from http://support.lenovo.com/<xx>/<xx>/products/tablets/thinkpad-tablet-series/thinkpad-8/?tabName=Down...
    replace <xx> by your language code. eg. en (my language code was de)
    look for Broadcom BCM4324 Wireless LAN Driver for Windows 8.1 (32-bit) - ThinkPad 8 or (64-bit in case)
    Start the installer and you're done.

  • HP Deskjet 1280 Driver for windows 8.1 Pro

    Hi Team,
    I have upgraded my compter operating system from windows 7 professional to windows 8.1 pro now, I unable to install  HP deskjet 1280 printer to new operating system. 
    Can you please send me a link to download the driver.
    Regards,
    Umesh

    Hi @Umesh_kanth ,
    I understand that you need the driver for Windows 8.1. I would be happy to help you.
    I checked the website and unfortunately there isn't any drivers to be able to download for Windows 8.1 for the HP Deskjet 1280 Printer. But you should be able to install the printer with a Windows generic driver. Plug the printer into the computer to see if Windows will automatically install a OS. driver.
    You might have to add the driver manually, here are the steps:
    Go to the start up screen. (tiles menu)
    Type in "Devices and Printers", select settings, click on Devices and Printers.
    Click on Add Printer and follow the steps.
    Select the HP Deskjet PCL3 Class Driver from the list.
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Installing HP Laser Jet 5 driver for Windows 7 64-bit or 32-bit

    I had an issue with installing an HP LaserJet 5 printer to a WIndows 7 64-bit box.  I thought I would post my experience and solution to this problem so that others can quickly resolve similar issues.
    If you connect as I did with a Parallel Printer-to-USB cable, then Win-7 searches for drivers automatically. But none werre found. However, using "Add Printer" via Control Panel/View Devices and Printers/Printers and Faxes, then left click starts the process for finding and installing the HP driver needed.
    No need as others have suggested to go to HP Support Center to install their Universal Printing PCL 5 driver found here:
    www1.hp.com/...Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL5/
    Hope this helps speed you on your way!

    Thanks for sharing your tip RatioCynic!  That's what this forum is all about!
    Happy printing!
    Thanks!

  • CORRECT DRIVER FOR WINDOWS 7 AND HP COLOR LASER JET 4600dn

    I'm having a problem with our IT department.  My old 4600dn worked great until they started downloading new drivers for Windows 7, which they installed just recently.  Now the one he INSISTS I use has only one tray selection.... Auto.  I'm trying to print business cards..(absolutely no problem till now).... but he INSISTS that this is the only driver. Then he wants me to choose Pg.....select 1, then MANUAL DUPLEX.  That's almost impossible for the printer. I'm almost POSITIVE you have a print driver that will allow me the tray selections I had before he installed Windows 7 and this particular driver.  I always used "Tray 1," CURRENT PAGE, it zoomed through the perforated cardstock like a streak!!!!  Now, the poor printer is trying to run perforated cardstock through the duplexing unit.  Out of 10 pages of cards, I ended up with 1 front printed and 9 pieces of cardstock that stuck in the tray and jammed in the duplexing unit.  Is there a CORRECT print driver for this particular printer that will allow all my normal functions to be visible and viable?  I don't have the model, nor serial #, as it is work printer and I'm at home now, so I can't get on chat.  He is hard to get along with and has been playing games this whole time.  I found one driver he inadvertantly left a day and a half ago and printed the cards like lightening, as it used to....7 minutes and I had 200 cards for two different staff members.  PLEASE HELP!  I think he's leading me down a merry path.  It also has to be able to duplex fairly heavy graphic pages...and even the driver he accidently left as an option, won't print the graphics.  I just KNOW you have a driver with all the options that will allow it to print to Windows 7 Operating System with all the former options.  HELLLLLLLP!  
    Thanks sooooo much!
