No Keyboard and Mouse on Windows 7 64Bit

Please Help, i tried to install Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit via BootCamp on an 27" iMa (Late 2013)
Everything works well while the Installation, the compelte Installation finish without any Failure.
After the "last" Reboot, the Screen on which the Windows Username must be entered is shown.
And from that point no Mouse or Keyboard works (tried several Devices).
I Tried round about 20times to install it on different ways, with Upgraded USB 3.0 Drivers, on onother iMac, with different Installation Guides, with external USB Drive, with ISO File, with Original DVD and, and , and - NOTHING Works, always the same failure. It seems that there is an issue with the USB Drivers. Im Wondering because of the red light in the headphone jack, which goes on exactly after booting Windows up .....
Plase Help with any Idea, I am at my wit's end
OSx is Mavericks with all Updates and Firmewareupdates Installed !

I have similar issues, but it is not a USB 2.0 issue.
I have a classroom with 25 brand new 21" tapered edge iMacs Core i5, 2.7GHz, Model A1418 EMC. The are stock machines, with 8GB RAM and 1TB hard drives. They do not have hybrid drives.
My plan was to get one set up exactly as I wanted it, with OS X Mavericks, and then run Boot Camp and install Windows 7 64bit, splitting the HD into two equal 500GB partitions. I did this, and it worked great. Got it all set up perfect. Then I was going to clone the HD using Acronis, booting from an Acronis bootable flash drive, and then clone the new machine with the system image from the old one. This is how I had done it previously, with older versions of iMac. It had worked in the past. No so here. Whenever I tried to boot from the Acronis flash drive (a USB 2.0 stick), by holding the option key upon boot and selecting it from the bootable drive menu, it freezes. I tried using DeployStudio to clone the drive and restore it to a new machine. That actually succeeds, but when I try to boot the Windows side, it fails to boot, giving me a screen that suggests I boot with a Windows Repair Disc and repair the installation. Here is where my issue gets similar.
If I try to boot from an external CD (USB 2.0), it gets to the initial screen asking for country/language, but I do not have a cursor, nor does the keyboard work. I have to reboot by holding the power button for 5 seconds. I have also tried booting from a bootable USB 2.0 flash drive. Same result. No matter what method I try to repair Windows, it boots to that initial Windows screen and then I can go no further.
I am using a wired Apple Keyboard and wired mouse. I have tried switching to generic PC keyboards and mice. No love. I have tried switching USB ports. Nada. I have tried multiple flash drives, recreating the restore CD, and have tried using Acronis, DeployStudio, and Windows own recovery software built in to Windows 7. The result is always the same...cloning the drive *technically* succeeds, but Windows will not start. Any attempt to boot from external media works, but gets to the point where it asks for the country/language and the keyboard and mouse do not function, so I cannot go any further. At this point, the only thing I can think to do is to go and install Windows on each machine individually. Ugh. It will take weeks.
Thoughts?

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!.

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.

Hi,
Did you have touchpad to control the computer?
If so, I suggest you try to disable fast boot to check the issue since this issue can be caused by failing to load drivers:

Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mouse + Bootcamp = screensaver problems

I can't seem to get the screensaver to activate when using the apple wireless keyboard and mouse under windows XP with Bootcamp.
I know its a problem with the wireless devices because if i restart the computer and not press anything (ie. mouse or keyboard) then the screensaver will work.
However as soon as I press the mouse or move the cursor around, the screensaver will fail to activate on its own, or if it activates, it will wake itself up even if I don't move the mouse or press the keyboard.
Any solutions?

Hi Capfred: Thank you for your replay. I have tried to follow your information but unable to solve the problem. I followed your comments but I am unable to get to the menu you mention. I have installed MAC OS X, Version 10.7.2 .
The only thing that works is the Apple last wireless mouse. I belive that I must have done something that created this situation. My problem is that I live in Panama, Central America and the local Apple dealer has little to no tech support.
Would it be possible for me to call you and review the config of these items or is there a way to restore the Macbook Air to the original installation .
I appreciate your kind help and once again thank you for your help. Regards,
Ruben

Using Photoshop CC 2014 on a Windows Tablet without a keyboard and mouse

Using Photoshop CC 2014 on a Windows Tablet without a keyboard and mouse can be quite a challenge. Even if you use the experimental 2x UI. You can not use your fingers or to quickly change tools and change settings. You have no shortcut without popping up Windows touch keyboard or leave it up taking a great deal of screen space. If you're using the 2x UI Photoshop uses the screen at half resolution so it displays 1/4 the amount of pixels it could.
Fortunately I found a little touchkey utility on the web the lets you design your own touch keyboards. The can be transparent and you can even paint under them as long as you start the stroke outside the keyboard area. The keyboards can be toggles on and off so you can actually use Photoshop. The utility is small and requires not installation can be run form anywhere. I purchased a Surface Pro 3 a week ago. Its a full fledge PC. Through the home group I can access all machines in my house and using network shares I can access all files on my machines and the network drive on my router, I can print on my Epson 4800 printer. I can show slideshow on my HDTV via Bluetooth using a Microsoft wireless display adapter. I can plug in my Wacom Intuos Pro wireless receiver into the USB 3 port and use my Wacom tablet. Have a very touchy machine. Touch on the keyboard touch pad touch on the Display display and on the Wacom tablet. Could have touch on a mouse but I prefer the Microsoft comfort bluetooth mouse that has six buttons and a four way wheel.
As a tablet its under two pounds. Its quite impressive cost why mor the an iPad but worth the cost to me for with windows I can get at the file system. If you have a Surface Pro 3 you should check out "Touchkey" its handy.

Do a screen screen capture and post it here so we can see what you stating about a white layout...

When I disable my left windows key for gameing using Microsoft keyboard and mouse software, I can no longer type in firefox. How can i fix this?

Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse Software that you install with Microsoft keyboard and mice, (latest version) allows you to disable your windows key so that you don't accidentally hit it when gaming. When I take advantage of this feature, I can no longer type in Firefox. Typing in Firefox is completely disabled. Other browsers, windows, applications work, but not Firefox. What is it about the windows key that firefox needs for typing. Strange problem, but annoying because I have to use a different browser while game. Certainly not a deal breaker, but kinda strange.

Boot camp not recognize keyboard and mouse when installing windows 7 pro 64 bit

Hi,
I have some issue when installing windows 7 pro 64 bit using boot camp. after done partitioning the windows drive and when boot to windows installation process, i've got stuck in the first screen when choosing the language. it seems that the keyboard and mouse are not detected.
i'm using boot camp ver. 5.0.
does anyone have similar problem with me?

I have finally successfully installed Windows 7 x64 on MacBook Air 13.3" (2013) thru Bootcamp.
Problem: After Windows 7 install thru BootCamp, I got to the first login screen and not input devices (Mouse, keyboard, USB) worked. I tried to boot into Windows Safemode, but I received the error "Windows can not complete installation in Safe Mode".
Cause: WIndows 7 does not have native USB 3.0 drivers, included on the install images.
Resolution: I downloaded the latest device drivers with thru BootCamp and copied them to the USB Flash Drive that had my bootable Windows 7 x64 install on it. The second option in BootCamp is "Download Support Media". This does more than just download drivers. It creates a file called "autoattended.xml". This is key as it tells Windows during the install process to use the device drivers that you download. Otherwise, you need to do it manually, which you can't because you have no mouse or keyboard.
NOTE: I had no need of a super drive because I had all the files on one USB flash drive. Therefore, I don't think it matter which side of the MBA the USB drive was plugged in, as other solutions suggested.

Keyboard and mouse not working correctly after installing Windows 8.1

I was forced to upgrade my computer to Windows 8.1. My keyboard worked fine until the sytem did a reboot. Numbers on keypad stopped typing and letters were being capitalized when the caps lock was off and the numbers across the top will only type the symbol above the numbers.
I looked up this problem and it seems I need to enter UEFI settings and disable Intel XHCI mode. When I get into the UEFI settings I cannot make any selection from the startup menu. Both my keyboard and mouse stop working.
Any suggestions?
This question was solved.

Thank you for posting a response. Fortunately, I didn't have to try your solution because the computer resolved itself.

Keyboard and Mouse no longer recognized when Boot Camp'ing into Windows XP

Mac Pro early 2008, Mac OS X 10.6.2, all updates applied. WinXP SP3. Standard wired Apple smooth mouse.
I normally use Parallels 4.0 to access my Windows XP on this Mac. That's been working fine and continues to do so. I upgraded to Snow Leopard not long after it was released. My Parallels is set to use the Boot Camp partition as the basis for its virtual machine.
I haven't started Windows directly from Boot Camp in some time. It used to work fine also. I am not sure I have accessed it directly from Boot Camp since I upgraded to Snow Leopard.
In any event, when I try to boot into Window, my slim wired Apple USB keyboard and mouse are not recognized. I get to the opening Windows Log-In screen and at that point, I can't move the mouse cursor and I can't type anything into the Windows password input box. The red mouse laser light flashes once every 7 or 8 seconds but also doesn't stay on.
Starting Windows under Parallels still works fine. I downloaded the BootCamp 3.1 Windows 32-bit upgrade from Apple. I tried running it in Windows under Parallels. Something ran for a while when I did that but there was no installation screens or dialogs after I clicked the "run" button.
Not sure what to do next.
Thanks.

Adding to the above: I also tried plugging in an Microsoft USB keyboard at the point when Windows freezes at the Windows log-in screen. The keyboard is not recognized and the only way I can leave this screen is to power-off the computer.

Ultraslim Plus keyboard and mouse issues with windows 8.1 (hesitation/jerkiness)

I'm just wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues with their Ultrslim Plus keyboard and mouse after the update to windows 8.1? Mine seems very hesitant missing lots of key presses and the mouse pointers movement accross the screen is jerky. I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers but it still isn't working like it was yesterday. Batteries for both show as 100% and nothing else has changed.
Solved!

My mistake. I'd installed version 1.5, the updated version 1.8 (specifically mentions windows 8.1 on download link) works perfectly.

Keyboard and mouse won't work while Windows is loading

I have mentioned this in another thread in a different section but thought I would post specifically about it here because I do need to find a solution.
I get no response from my keyboard and mouse (both USB wired, the originals that came with the iMac) as soon as XP starts to load. This means that I cannot e.g. enter Safe Mode because pressing F8 gets no response. Both work fine before Windows starts to load because I can choose to boot from either Windows or OSX by holding down Option as the computer starts up. Also, if I keep pressing F8 immediately after choosing Windows I do sometimes get to the screen which should let me choose Safe Mode but then I can't do anything once there because there's no response from keys or mouse. If I leave it til the screen that says to press F8, it is too late because there's just no response from anything. Once Windows is up and running, all works perfectly.
Anyone got any idea why this is happening and how to fix it?
Thanks.

Hi!
I suffered this problem time and time again, I kept on pairing/un-pairing/re-pairing etc. and then for no reason at all it suddenly worked. What happened I do not know. Be patient. First off use a wired keyboard and wireless mouse and if that works stay with it for a while. Then try both wireless. I found my mouse was more temperamental than the keyboard. You may have to try wireless keyboard and wired mouse (USB into the computer direct).
Good luck let me know how it goes.

IMac Windows 8 pro Keyboard and mouse not working!

Yes I did use Bootcamp for that!

Windows 8 USB wireless keyboard and mouse?

I have a MacBook Pro 13.3" late 2011 base model running Mac OS X 10.7.4 (Lion). I am planning on installing the Windows 8 Release Preview (64-bit). The requirements state that I need to use a USB keyboard and mouse to get the drivers going once I am in Windows. My question is whether my Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse, which connect via a USB to my MacBook, will work in Windows 8 with the same functionality so I can run the executable file to download the drivers. Also, as a follow-up question, is Windows 8 Release Preview (64-bit) a safe install for me through Boot Camp?
Thanks in advance,
Rith=Apple4Life

Really? Have you installed Windows 8 onto your Mac because in some videos I have watched, I have seen people not being able to use the built-in keyboard and trackpad until the drivers are installed by using the .exe file. Anyway, for backup, I have secured a wired keyboard and mouse just in case and will be installing Windows 8 soon. It would be nice to download the RTM version, but I wouldn't trust any source other than Microsoft itself.
Thanks,
Rith=Apple4Life
