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

Thank you for collecting and building a list of compatible BlueTooth keyboards and mouses. If you connect the BT mouse will the phone display an arrow cursor?

  • Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse

    I jursted bougth a HP Envy 23-o014 All-In-One.  It came with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse now they are not working?  How can I get this fixed?

    I have the same computer - less than 6 months old -  and the same problem (which started after an update on 3/12 - ?).  The diagnostics I ran told me the keyboard and mouse were no longer compatible with 3.0.   I was able to regain function by restarting with f2 to try to correct.  Worked fine for a while then the mouse eventually became more and more erratic. On the next restart the keyboard was unresponsive again.   The tech guys removed the dongle (from the back panel behind your screen) and plugged into the external port - after that, everything worked fine again ..... until the next restart.  Since the system is under warranty, they just replaced the keyboard and mouse.  Again everything appeared to work fine so I brought it back home and guess what - same problem!  I remove the dongle from one drive to another - then it worked fine again.  I restarted to test it, when it came up the screen went immediately to something that said "keyboard error" but went immediately to the hp start screen before I could catch it.  When I began to log in after that, the cursor would jump to the left side of the letter I just typed - it would only go back and forth.  I removed the dongle and reinserted - problem fixed.  This is not how it should work - someone has to know the root cause for this - ? 

  • I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

    I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit.  Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • 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.

  • Installing Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse in Windows XP Bootcamp

    I just installed windows XP in bootcamp. Problem is that my bluetooth keyboard and mouse aren't connected. Short of getting a USB mouse to connect them, is there any work arounds?

    Yeah. You will need a USB connected Keyboard and USB Mouse too!.

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse - kills my on board trackpad and keyboard.

    Any pro's have advice please?

    "i have tried many fixes"
    Please detail all the things you have done in the way of troubleshooting. This will eliminate the +"been there, done that"+ scenarios when the knowledgeable users here try to help you. Thank you.
    You should also cross-post over in the Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse forums. It's where the Bluetooth users hang out at.

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse will not connect

    I loaded a linux iso on a usb. Loaded it on a reboot. It may have been corrupted or something, because it did not load correctly. I rebooted the computer again and now the bluetooth keyboard and mouse will not connect. How can I fix this?
    Thank you.

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse not function on BootCamp3.0 + Windows 7

    Hi,
    I am 24'' iMac user.
    I have installed boot Camp 3.0 on Windows 7, all devices functions well except bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Both of them cannot be found and paired.
    Any one know how to slove this problem?
    Thanks.

    Have you tried reading the many other posts on this forum that talk about this issue? It seems that by default the services are not enabled for some peripheral devices. Try right-clicking the bluetooth icon, selecting "show my bluetooth devices" (or similar i dont ahve it in front of me), then right click the keyboard/mouse, go to the Services tab and make sure the services are enabled.

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse compatability

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if the older bluetooth keyboard and mouse will work with a 20" imac duo core? The numbers are as follows: Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard (A1016) & Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse (A1197). The imac number I believe is: MA200LL.
    I haven't received it yet though ebay but would like to do the bluetooth thing to keep my desk as clutter free as possible.
    Thanks!

    Taking this a step further; I bought the aluminum wireless KB with my 20" 2 GHz Core 2 Duo. I don't like the layout, so I bought the older style wireless KB (A1016). However, I can't get the Mac to recognize the new KB. I've even gone through the Bluetooth setup assistant to no avail: it just can't find it. I tried having the BT Setup Assistant look for ANY BT device and it sees the KB that way. I can get through to the point of entering the passkey on the computer but I seem to get hung up when trying to enter the same corresponding code on the new KB.
    Any ideas? Do I need to disable the wireless aluminum KB?

  • Bluetooth keyboard and mouse disconnect issue

    I have a 20" Aluminium iMac with the bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Recently i've started to have some issues where the keyboard keeps disconnecting & reconnecting, also the mouse going slow and jerky. They have been working perfectly fine for the past year but only recently started to play up. I have gone into bluetooth prefs and deleted them and re-connected, this seemed to be a temporary fix but after a while it started again, although not as bad as before. I usually leave my Mac on all the time and just put it in sleep mode, the issue now seems to be waking it from sleep as well. I have tried restarts and re pairing as i said before but nothing seems to be solving the issue. Any ideas or fixes would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I'm experiencing the exact same problem. I have an MacBook with the bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I've had them for about a year and they've worked perfectly; this problem has only showed up in the last couple of weeks. I didn't know whether it was a hardware problem or software (perhaps a recent software update), but considering the exact same thing is happening to someone else I'm inclined to think software rather than hardware.
    The keyboard disconnects and reconnects (immediately) a couple of times an hour. It's not such a problem with the keyboard, but whenever that happens, the mouse goes very slow for several minutes, until it finally works out. The mouse doesn't disconnect (I have hardware growl on and am notified of disconnections/connections); it just goes very slow.

  • Buzz / Hiss sound when using apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse w/heaphones

    When I use the apple wireless (bluetooth) keyboard and mouse with my 1.42Ghz G4 Mac mini, there is a constant buzzing or hissing noise. When I turn the keyboard and mouse off, it stops. I've updated the firmware on my mac mini, but I couldn't update the firmware on my keyboard and mouse:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301282
    (thanks, apple)
    Is there a way to fix this noise? Would updating the firmware solve this? Has anyone else experienced it? It's driving me crazy!
    Thanks!

    would you have another computer available that has 10.3 on it? it would probably help. pmu reset may also help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574. good luck. [ : ) ]

  • Multiple bluetooth keyboard and mouse

    I will be using 4 Mac mini's with bluetooth keyboard and mouse at a trade show in a convention center. Will the bluetooth devices have any issues being placed next to each other, if not what is the setup procedure?

    Hello Billy:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I have never done anything like the process you describe. However, I think the BT devices will only pair with one system at a time.
    Frankly, I think I would test everything before I set it up at the show. I would also have a wired KB and mouse available - just in case (voice of someone who has had live presentations go poorly!).

  • Trick for Pairing Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse With Windows 7 in BC 3.1

    My Mac:
    Mid-2007 iMac 20", 2.4 GHz; OS X 10.6.2; Windows 7 Home; Boot Camp 3.1
    My Problem:
    No matter what I tried, including all kinds of tips and tricks found in this forum and elsewhere on the web, I could not get my Apple aluminum bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth Mighty Mouse to pair in Windows 7. Windows 7's bluetooth setup panel would see them, from time to time, but never connected.
    The same pair connected quite easily with Snow Leopard, and the keyboard connected before I installed BC 3.1 in Win 7 (never did get the MM to connect in Win 7 with BC 3.0). But with BC 3.1 in Win 7, it was no dice for either one until I made an accidental discovery.
    While prepping another Apple bluetooth aluminum keyboard for my wife's Mac Mini, it was seen by my iMac's Win 7, which wanted to pair with it.
    Aha! A Big Clue! The Win 7 BC 3.1 generic bluetooth drivers wanted to pair with an aluminum keyboard that wasn't already paired with the iMac. So, I booted back into Snow Leopard, connected a USB mouse and keyboard, renamed the bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and then deleted them. I rebooted back into Win 7, then easily set up both renamed mouse and keyboard which paired quickly with Windows.
    Note that I first tried deleting them from the Snow Leopard side first, but Win 7 still wouldn't pair with them. That's when I went back to Snow Leopard and renamed them but didn't pair them with the iMac until it was booted into Win 7.
    Finally, I rebooted back into Snow Leopard and paired the keyboard and mouse with OS X. Done.
    Hope this trick/tip/hint helps someone else with keyboard and mouse bluetooth pairing problems.

    You're welcome. My discovery was quite accidental, but that's often how things happen ... if you're paying attention and are looking for clues.
    Sorry you had to trial and error before you succeeded, but as you've probably found, it is necessary to rename the bluetooth devices first, then delete them from OS X.
    I don't understand why this trick was necessary, or even what caused it to happen. I've got 6 Win 7 installations via Boot Camp on 6 Intel Macs (2 white MacBooks, 1 Unibody MacBook, a Core Duo Mac Mini, a 27" iMac and the 20" 2.4 Mid-2007 iMac). All were running 10.6.2 and Win 7 (aren't Family Packs wonderful?) via Boot Camp 3.0 more or less without problems, except as noted in my first post.
    Only the 20" iMac had problems after the Boot Camp 3.1. Not only did I have a devil of a time pairing the keyboard and mouse, but I also lost the Win 7 activation on the iMac 20" and the OS X partition started showing up as "EFI Boot". All happened right after I updated Boot Camp 3.0 to 3.1 via download from Apple while running Win 7.
    I've heard reports of other Mac users discovering Boot Camp had done a FUBAR job on their machines, but this is my first experience. My guess is that there's some dialogue going on between 10.6, Win 7 and Boot Camp that shouldn't be happening. What I really don't understand is why my other 5 Macs didn't have any problems at all with the Boot Camp upgrade to 3.1. Let's hope the Apple Boot Camp team can reverse engineer my discovery and improve the next version of BC.
