Mouse not working with Boot Camp after 10.5.7 update

I upgraded to 10.5.7 recently, and now my mouse doesn't work on Boot Camp. It doesn't seem to register, and I can't move the pointer. I tried this with two mice that worked just fine on the Mac OSX side. Any ideas? Has anybody else noticed this?

I have a new (July 2009) iMac24 and neither the wireless mighty mouse nor keyboard work with Boot Camp XP Home Edition SP3. They install OK with the Bluetooth control panel, but then after five or ten seconds, drop out of the control panel and have to be discovered again. I spent two hours today with a Mac support expert, but no joy. We both gave up. It seems the wireless mouse/keyboard does not work with Boot Camp. If anyone hears of a solution, please let me know.

  • Magic Mouse Not Working with Boot Camp.

    Hi All,
    I have a wired issue here. I installed Windows XP on my iMac 27" using bootcamp and all worked fine till one day my Magic Mouse stopped working in Windows. Now the funny part is windows is able to detect my mouse and says that the device is working normally but the green light under my mouse is OFF. No matter what i try i cannot get it to come on. But the moment i boot to Mac OS X the mouse works perfectly fine. My Apple Wireless KB works just fine in Windows. A USB mouse also works fine. I have also installed Parallels on my Mac and when i boot into the Windows partition using Parallels the Magic Mouse works fine. Any idea as to whats going on here.?

    Did you install the correct driver for your Windows version? Are you saying the mouse does not work in Windows after Windows is installed?

  • ISight is not working with boot camp

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook Pro and very satisfied with it. Formerly I worked with Windows XP, so I decided to buy a Macbook and use boot camp. Everything was fine. In my enthusiasm I bought the LED cinema display. Very good display but the iSight camera is not reliable working with boot camp. There is no driver available. Sometimes the camera is recognized as video device but mostly not. When the camera is not recognized then there is a yellow exclamation mark in the device manager. I don't know what to do. Is anybody working with boot camp and the iSight build in the LED cinema display? And what driver do you use? Hopefully I get some help here. Everything is working convenient except this issue.
    Thank you, Frank

    Sorry, I think I mixed some things. I tried several contellations to find out what is going wrong. The iSight is woking with my MacBook (and boot camp). But it is not working with other Laptops or PCs (all with Windows XP). It is working really rarely but not reliable and not replicatable. In all cases I tried only the USB connector from the LED cinema display. Audio, micro and hub is always working without problems. The iSight driver delivered with the Macbook is not working (only with the Macbook itself). If I had known this before I think I would buy the display although. The display is great. But it is a pity that the iSight is not working when you do not use Apple hardware. May be I will buy the Mac Pro in one or two years when I need a new PC. Perhaps someone can answer if Windows XP is working without problems on a Mac Pro? And is the iSight build in the LED cinema display working (Mac Pro and boot camp)?

  • Wireless keyboard not working with Boot Camp

    I have a brand new 15" Macbook Pro.  I need to run Windows for work so I installed Boot Camp and Windows 8.1.  I have a HP wireless keyboard with a USB dongle.  It will not work at all.  Windows recognizes that I've plugged in the dongle but the keyboard won't work at all.  It's a brand-new keyboard and the batteries show full charge.  All drivers look good in device manager.  When I went thru the Windows troubleshooter, which is typically worthless, it said something about the dongle being USB 2.0 and the Mac's USB is 3.0.  But shouldn't it be backward compatible?  It has no problem with my old wireless mouse with a USB dongle.
    I also notice a significant difference in the clarity on my dual external monitors with Windows instead of OSx.  The colors aren't as sharp and the text isn't as clear - kind of fuzzy.  Is that just how it goes with boot camp, or is there anything I can do, like maybe an upgraded driver, to get the same clarity on my dual monitors with Windows like I get with OSx?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Unfortunately I can't turn off Bluetooth in Win 8.1.  I go to the page where i should see the slider and the page just spins and spins.  I thought my install might be hosed so I blew it away and did a fresh boot camp install.  Still no joy; BT still spins - and I still can't connect to the USB keyboard.  I can plug the dongle in and see it in devices, and it says it's ready to go but the keyboard doesn't work.  It's brand-new and has worked on a Windows box so I know it's not a bad keyboard.  Maybe time to go back to a Windows box and ditch boot camp?

  • Option Key not working with Boot Camp.

    Hi all,
    I installed Boot Camp on my new Alu Imac 24" (wired keyboard) and when booting up the option key that should bring up the boot options doesn't work. Is this a known fault with the slimline keyboard and Boot Camp??
    I have tried all different combinations of power button and Option key but nothing works.
    Any suggestion?

  • Will Windows 8.1 upgrade work with Boot Camp on OS X Mavericks?

    Will Windows 8.1 upgrade work with Boot Camp on OS X Mavericks?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. Make a backup of your files in Windows, and install Windows 8.1 as an upgrade. The Windows support software supports it without any issue, so if it is updated, you do not have to worry

  • IHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.

    My iHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.  Prompts message 'This accessory is not supported by iPhone'.  Has anyone come accross this and is there a fix?

    Ring up iHome and ask them for a fix... And if they cant supply you with a fix... Then you should be entitled to a replacement or a upgrade, as firmware upgrades on your ios device should not affect audio products......

  • Firefox 4 does not work on my G5. After prompting me to update from previous version I am now left with nothing functioning. How do I go back?

    After downloading the latest update Firefox kindly told me I should upgrade to V4. So I did. I downloaded it, dropped it into my applications folder and overwrote the old version. Only to be told when attempting to start the application "Firefox does not work with this architecture".
    Brilliant. So I look for an older version on the site, and there is nothing to be found. Just the insistance that I should download version 4 for my Mac. Well, "IT DOESN"T WORK GUYS!"
    Now can we have a fix please quickly or a link to the older version, as I am now left without all my bookmarks or passwords and you are about to effectively isolate a section of the computing community from ever using you again.

    For your toolbars that you had installed before, are they simply incompatible with the latest version of Firefox?
    Please try reading [[Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox|Add-ons are disabled after updating Firefox]], as that may help with your addons.
    As for Firefox running slow, is it slow lading web pages, or is just the whole browser slow? Try reading [[Firefox is slow|Firefox is slow]] , which may have some tips (the optimize Windows part especially).

  • USB Mouse not work with Mac OS 10.6

    I have a USB mouse can work with Mac OS 10.4 but cannot with Mac OS 10.6. Noticed the different is the USB mouse motion reporting is 12-bit instead of 8-bit. It can definitely work on Windows with standard USB HID driver. I wonder if the OS 10.6 is having a different USB HID driver specification which is not posted in USB-IF.

    Ask the Vendor.

  • Wireless Not Working under Boot Camp

    Wireless works with Leopard and with VM Fusion, but when I use boot camp, it won't connect to DHCP. Tried manual ip address also, but no internet connectivity and can't ping my network.
    Wired ethernet works fine with Boot Camp.

  • Does Quicken Premier work with Boot Camp?

    Does Quicken Premier work well with Boot Camp. I'm contemplating replacing my iMac Power PC with a new Mac Mini.

    Most any program that is compatible with Windows 7
    will work.  With the new Macs and OSX Lion, they
    will only support Windows 7.  An alternative would be
    to use VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop for Mac.
    These create a "virtual" pc that runs inside MacOSX.
    They act as an application in OSX so that you have
    windows running at the same time OSX is running.

  • Import via Drag & Drop not working with LR CC (after Update from 5.7)

    I always imported my pictures by just dragging them in the Windows Explorer and dropping them to the Lightroom Gallery tab.
    This does not work with LR CC anymore.
    The longer way via "Import" works fine.
    Any suggestions?

    With Gallery i meant Library, my mistake (wrong translation, i am using the german version).
    What works with your setup doesn't work with mine.
    I attached a screenshot:
    As you can see (cursor) i can't import the file from the file explorer on the right.
    (The file is not already in the catalogue and i am in the library tab grid view mode).
