Problem: SteerMouse with Logitech MX1000 Bluetooth

Others have reported success with the SteerMouse driver/software on bluetooth mouse like MX1000 BT, but I am still missing some functionalities:
1. Why doesn't SteerMouse recognize the 'fn' key on the keyboard when I want to create a shortcut key? There is shift, ctrl, option and command, but why I just CAN'T add the 'fn' key? Is there a "right" way to add the fn key?
2. Also, the tilt left and right on the mouse doesn't NOT respond under SteerMouse. They were even working on OS X's default Bluetooth connection, how could they not work on Steermouse? Their FAQ only says that to configure mouse tilt on Button 7 and 8, which is vague at best. I've done that already and still the tilt doesn't work

Ok, here's an update.
1. Problem 1 is solved by the latest beta version of the SteerMouse driver
2. I've just been told by the developer of SteerMouse that their software does NOT support the 'fn' key on the keyboard! I actually don't care about this, as long as there's a way to send the "Ctrl-PgUp" or "Ctrl-PgDwn" commands to Firefox so I can use the backward and forward buttons on my mouse to navigate firefox tabs backward and forward. Any ideas from anyone?

Mouse stops, computer freezes. this problem occurs with any mouse: bluetooth, wired, and a spare logitech wired mouse. iMac 0S10.6.8

Help! Mouse stops, computer freezes. Restart helps for a while, then mouse doesn't respond. Problem occurs with my 4 "mice" - bluetooth, apple wireless, logitech wired & microsoft wired. Any solutions?

Problem solved!
First, the underlying cause MAY have been an unusual circumstance: a smartphone (Galaxy Android) was placed next to the iMac, turned on and with Bluetooth enabled, and left for hours to charge. Could this proximity have resulted in the Mac getting some strange Bluetooth input?
Fix: Using the temporarily-installed mouse and keyboard, I removed the existing Bluetooth keyboard and trackpad entries. (I just removed every Bluetooth device.) Then I used the standard procedure to re-pair the wireless keyboard and trackpad.
After removing all Bluetooth devices, I could not get the Mac to detect any Bluetooth devices until I restarted the Mac, at which point device detection and pairing worked flawlessly.
My best --and admittedly ignorant, sketchy-- theory: Some mal-formed event got stuck in the Bluetooth input stream, causing the trackpad up and/or down states to be hyper-sticky. That event couldn't be cleared without removing the originating device and re-pairing.

Issue with Logitech MX1000 - losing reception - base is only 2 feet away...

I made the move to the MBP about 2 weeks ago after being a sole windows user. I'm now having an issue using my logitech MX1000 mouse on here and was hoping someone could give me an idea as to what is going on. Now and then I will just lose reception. Clicking becomes unresponsive and the movement is choppy to the point where I cant even move around. Other times it is perfectly fine. This appears to not be an issue when I boot into windows - only os-x. Is anyone else seeing this issue?

Hi, I have a Logitech MX1000 mouse, which is an outstanding device, but I’m using it with my Linux box.
What I’m curious about (and asked earlier without getting any answer) is whether this wireless mouse is actually a Bluetooth compatible device? I’ve always used it with its own base station, and I have assumed the wireless protocols it uses were proprietary.
Are you using the base station or are you connecting to it from the Mac directly using its wireless capability with the Mac’s Bluetooth interface?
Thanks.

Initialisation problem with Logitech Mx900 Bluetooth Mouse

Dear all,
I have a recent problem with the initialisation of the Bluetooth connection at startup with my Logitech Mx900.
The system fails to connect with the device. I have to go to the bluetooth pane (with the USB mouse) and to make a search in order to get the connection.
This is very disturbing issue.
I have seen quite the same topic with an intellimouse. Is there some general issue with 10.4.4 or Bluetooth firmware?
iMac G4 - Mac OS X 10.4.4 (8G32) - Bluetooth module DLINK DBT-120 Firmware 1.443 (1.443)
i mac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Well, I got it working, sort of. The normal buttons and the scroll wheel work as the should. The browse back and browse forward buttons do not work. The tilt wheel works, with tilting right acting as the browse back button, and tilting left acting as browse forward.

Logitech MX1000 Bluetooth (part of the MX5000 bundle) with MBP- lag/erratic

Hi,
I have the MX1000 BT mouse. It connects fine and works well with Steermouse but Im experiencing lagging and erratic movement sometimes. Im using it with my MPB. Anyone experience this? Is there a way to correct it? any help would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Hmm. That's strange. Anthony, if you're working fine then mine must be defective. it's actually ok most of othe time, but I notice the lags with the process is in use for example when a program is launch or some other processing happening in the background. The lags are never huge but you can see the cursor skips and jumps sometimes. Thanks for the feedback. Would love to hear more from the others.
tirnszw, this mouse doesn't have USB or PS2 connection, so I can't test that.

Logitech MX1000 Bluetooth Mouse

Hi there, I was just perusing over the forums here, trying to find help with a problem I'm having, I'm curious if someone may be able to help me. I can't seem to find another post that resolves this issue. I can't seem to get my mouse to be recognized by the LCC (I'm trying to set-up the extra buttons), I even tried using the Logitech Bluetooth dongle thing. Any pointers would be appricated.
Thanks in advance.

still having the same trouble. i managed to connect the mouse once. here's what i did
1. sudo hciconfig hci0 up
2. hcitool dev
3. hcitool inq
4. sudo hidd --connect <bta>
after that, the mouse connected.
i thought everything was all right, so i edited the bluetooth file to connect the mouse at boot.
to test, i rebooted, but the mouse didn't connect. also, when i try to connect it manually by following step 4 above, all i get is: 'can't get device information: connection timed out'.
how can i connect the mouse?

Help with Logitech V470 Bluetooth Mouse connecting to Thinkpad T510

Hi, Guys
I received my T510 a few days ago. And I originally throught they did not put Bluetooth on my machine.
I called them this morning and got that you have to press FN+F5 to enable Bluetooth.
So, I did that, but stll, I can't get my V470 bluetooth mouse connected to it ?
Things I have tried:
01 latest software from Logitech website, Windows 7 64 Bit
02 Original driver/software came with the mouse
They both do not work.
I wonder if there is any one having the same issue, or any Lenovi staff could help you out ?
Thanks.

Logitech mx1000 bluetooth mouse not connecting

i've followed the instructions on these two pages:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_Mouse
but i've succeeded in getting the mouse to connect only once.
basically, what i did was:
1. installed bluez.
2. set 'HIDD_ENABLE=true' in /etc/conf.d/bluetooth.
3. started bluetooth service.
4. added bluetooth to the daemons array.
5. in /etc/conf.d/bluetooth, set 'HIDD_OPTIONS="--connect <bta>"'
unfortunately, the mouse does not connect at startup. and when i try to connect manually by typing 'hidd --connect <bta>', i get an error 'Can't get device information: Connection timed out'.
when i type 'hcitool scan', nothing comes up. any ideas?
thanks!

Problem With WIFI and Bluetooth

HI Im Vikram
Recently i upgraded to IOS 8.1 so problem started with WIFI and Bluetooth . When i was in IOS 7.1.2 everything was fine with my device. so what should i do now ?? Is there any possibility to downgrade to IOS 7.1.2 ??

Unfortunately the BIOS is unable to be resorted to back it up, as the issue persists. I suggest contacting our Technical Support Team for all the information required and to get the details of the nearest Authorized Service Center to get the issue analyzed.

Logitech V470 bluetooth mouse problems with new macbook pro.

Got a Logitech V470 bluetooth mouse to use with my recent 2011 macbook pro running 10.6.7. There appear to be several problems with this combination.
1. If the mouse is not moved for a few seconds and I move it, the pointer does not respond immediately, and when it does, the pointer motion stutters and jerks across the screen for a few seconds before it starts moving smoothly. I don't see any spike in CPU usage when this happens.
2. When I shutdown/reboot or sometimes even put the macbook pro to sleep and wake it up, the machine fails to communicate with the mouse, nothing happens even if I reset/restart the mouse or click, scroll or move it around. The only fix is to go to the bluetooth settings and set it up as a new device.
I suspected a hardware problem on either the mouse or the mac, but (a) the mouse works perfectly fine on an older Sony Vaio laptop and (b) the apple wireless keyboard works pretty fine with none of these problems with my macbook. Would getting an apple magic mouse magically solve this problem?
Has anyone else faced this situation, and could it be fixed?

Any issues you are having with a "Logitech" product, should be dealt with their tech/customer support department.

Re: Logitech Travel Bluetooth mouse stopped working with my Satellite A300/

Whilst happily using my Logitech Travel Bluetooth mouse, suddenly it stopped working, thinking it was a mouse problem, I first put a new battery in, but still not working. Had a look in the Bluetooth settings and it was still showing in there, at this point the computer was still in warranty. Later I tried to connect my mobile and that worked ok, so I was now convinced that it was the mouse. Rang the shop where I bought it, tough luck mate, we are not interested in helping you...thanks!
Some time later I got a chance to try the mouse on another computer, hey presto it worked fine....yippee maybe it will now work on mine...no such luck. So now I am thinking that there must be a problem with my laptop...and of course the warranty is now run out!
I have now deleted the Laser mouse in the Bluetooth settings, thinking being that maybe a new search and install could solve the issue, but now whilst it sees my phone it cannot connect to it and it does not even see the Laser mouse at all.
The driver version it is using is 5.0.2518 which is probably what came with the computer. As far as I know I have never updated it.
This all seems strange to me that one moment it is working and the next it is not...anyway is it worth trying to update the driver software> or am I barking up the wrong tree.
Any help would be appreciated.
JD

Thanks for your reply hammer.
I have now installed the latest bluetooth drivers, the only thing that has happened is that it can now connect to my mobile phone. the mouse is still a no goer.
All the drivers seem to be there and I took a note of the versions prior to the update, they have all been updated ok, there are no crosses against any item in the Device Manager.
Hmm hardware issue could be a bit difficult. But as it is now out of warranty maybe I will need to take it apart myself and see if I can find out the problem.
Must say that I am slightly disapointed to have this happen....I bought Toshiba cos from all accounts it is supposed to be the best out there, but next time I think it may be a different brand.
cheers.

Issue with Logitech Bluetooth mouse

Hi everyone!
I have some problems in correctly configuring my Logitech v270 bluetooth mouse. I followed all the steps in http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_Mouse, but I still can't connect automatically at startup. Each time I boot my laptop, I must type
/etc/rc.d/bluetooth stop
/etc/rc.d/bluetooth start
at the root prompt to get it work.
Please note that I also completed this step: I added to my /etc/rc.local this line:
hidd --connect <enter here your bluetooth mouse address (No capitals!!!)>
Some ideas?
Thank you!

Same issue, been a problem since I purchased last Christmas. Sometimes I want to throw this piece of crap out and buy a mac. Lenovo, get your head out of your ass.

Problem with iphone 5 bluetooth

Have problem with iphone 5 bluetooth pairing with 2012 toyota corolla audio. After receiving incoming call, there is a pause then return to radio mode for a 3-5 second period. Unlike pairing with old iphone 3g, bluetooth connected immediately to incoming call. Have tried various methods to redo pairing, but same result and 3-5 second delay. Any suggestions?

My Bluetooth on iPhone 5 works fine with 2 x BMWs never had any issues

My MightyMouse works and I am looking for another mouse so I can use this one with my other MBP.

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.
