Problems with a mouse and keyboard

The keyboard and Mouse froze some one has any solution to this matter thanks.
the keyboard works perfect in onthercomputer as well as the mouse does.

Are you using an Apple pointing device and keyboard?
Is there anything around the Minis that would restrict wifi reception?
I just moved my external HD from directly on top of my 2009 Mini and it improved wifi speed.. I also use the Apple trackpad and small BT Apple keyboard.
The BT/wifi card is not replaceable. You could purchase a USB wifi adopter

IMac 27" i5: Bluetooth Enabler Driver Problem with Magic Mouse and Keyboard

So I just got my iMac 27" Quad Core i5 computer and was able to succesfully install Windows 7 64-bit (using this guide to get past the blank screen problem http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10533092). I then installed the Boot Camp 3 drivers from the Mac OS CD and updated windows via Windows Update. Everything seemed to work well.
I even had right click and scrolling capabilities with the MAGIC MOUSE! Also, all the keys were functional on the wireless keyboard.
However, after a few minutes of use the keyboard and mouse would hang and get stuck and I would have to do a hard reboot of the machine. I uninstalled the Apple Bluetooth drivers from the Add/Remove Programs menu and it fixed the problems with the devices getting stuck. However, function keys on the keyboard (brightness, volume, etc.) and scrolling in the Magic Mouse now not work. Is anyone else having this problem?

I found a solution, and everything now works! I followed step three in this discussion http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2221427&tstart=0 which says:
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".

I'm having problems with bluetooth mouse and keyboard. They work for the first 10 minutes then stop communicating.

I have to turn the computer off in order to get control of the computer again. Any ideas of what the problem may be?

You can run Bluetooth diagnostics by holding down the Option key and clicking the Bluetooth icon in the status menu bar.

Do I require wired mouse and keyboard to bootcamp on imac 2012 with bluetooth mouse and keyboard?

have just purchased a late 2012 imac which I want to bootcamp. Have read on some posts that during the process you lose the use of mouse and keyboard as they are bluetooth and windows does not have the drivers, so you need a wired mouse and keyboard to bootcamp the imac.
Is this correct as there is nothing in the Apple bootcamp guide mentioning this.
would appreciate some assistance on this point.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
In theory, you don't need a USB mouse and keyboard because the iMac can detect the Bluetooth ones during startup (difficult but it can). If you are new, I recommend you to get a USB mouse and keyboard to install Windows in Boot Camp, so installation will be easier and you won't have any problem to start up in OS X later.
With the USB keyboard and mouse, it's as simple as following the Apple's steps to install Windows on your Mac > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf It's very important to download the Windows support software, which you will need to make Windows work correctly

Boot-camp/Windows with cordless mouse and keyboard

I am picking up my 27" quad core iMac tomorrow. In anticipation I bought the Pogue book on Snow Leopard. In it he says that you can't install Windows with the cordless mouse and keyboard but that once installed it can be used with the cordless mouse/keyboard. Will someone please tell me he is wrong .
Thanks.
Alan

I used mine to install Windows. Worked just fine till the Apple Bluetooth drivers were installed, then I just had to connect a regular USB keyboard/mouse to pair the bluetooth keyboard and mouse again.
One suggestion, after you install the Boot Camp drivers and plug in your USB keyboard/mouse, uninstall the "Apple Bluetooth" drivers (I believe there are two of them) and restart your computer. Let Windows automatically install generic drivers for the built in bluetooth, THEN pair your wireless keyboard and mouse. After that you can reinstall the Apple bluetooth drivers if you want, although I don't think it's particularly necessary. The generic drivers seem to work fine in my experience.
You may run into trouble pairing your keyboard and mouse, if so, refer to the "Boot Camp" section on this site, there are millions of threads about it there.

Problems with Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard battery levels 10.6.7

Last day, when I update to 10.6.7, Mac tells me that the batteries of the mouse and the keyboard is 18850648374% and in the Preferences panel always tell me 100%, but the other day Mac tells me that the keyboard had no battery and that's not true
How can I fix it?
This is driving me crazy!
Thank you!
P.D: sorry for my bad English, I'm Spanish...

Getting Bluetooth set up initially in Bootcamp is a bit of a hit and miss affair in my experience, but persistence pays off, and connection is reliable. I gave up with the keyboard on my Mac Pro at one stage, tried again a few days later and it worked.
How did you do it?
Persistence and repetition, reading lots of threads and getting snippets from various sources, can't recall any silver bullets.
Have you searched this forum, there are a LOT of posts on the subject.
Links please? I can't find any.
If you type "bluetooth" in the search box while at the top level of the Bootcamp section you will get six pages of hits. Here are just a few, not necessarily the best or a complete list or in any particular order, but they contain relevant info.
I can't remember the detail now but one of the key steps for me was launching the bluetooth "service" mentioned in some of these links. Initially option wasn't appearing at all. Also mine (and others) seems to need a single click after boot to be activated. If you try and move it before a click it won't respond so you might think it wasn't working.
BTW I am assuming you have successfully installed the Boot Camp 3.1 drivers?

I am afraid at this point I stopped trawling through looking for the most relevant ones so the above is incomplete.

External monitor with external mouse and keyboard. what am I doing wrong?

I got a iBook G3 with 600 MHz , 640 RAM, running 10.4.10. I bought a external keyboard, mouse and got a free ViewSonic Monitor from school so I hoped that I would be able to use all of these while the lid of my computer was closed. I close it, wait a few seconds, press random keys on my external keyboard to wake it up and it at first appears that it works but then it just goes back to sleep after about 1 min at the most. If you could help me I'd appreciate it. THANKS!!!!

You aren't doing anything wrong; the iBook is supposed to sleep whenever you close it. It's designed to work that way, ostensibly so that it won't overheat.
Apple's word on the matter can be found in this Apple Knowledge Base article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=88199
Others have addressed the problem by simply darkening the display with the F1 key and leaving the iBook open an inch or so.

Mac mini setup with wireless mouse and keyboard

Bought a new mini with wireless keyboard and mouse. Turns on, picks up the mouse and as soon as the registration setup window starts the connection is lost. It never picked up the keyboard. Apple support said it is not possible to set up a new mini with the wireless accessories so go buy wired ones. Is this really true? Is there a way to skip the registration window, install the wireless keyboard and mouse? Has anyone else had this problem?
If what the phone support guy said is true then I am a very unhappy new Mac purchaser. Nowhere on the Mac mini site or even in the instruction booklet does it say that you have to have the wired accessories and now apparently I'll have to buy two of everything. Total garbage.

Can you beg/borrow or steal any ("Windows") USB keyboard and mouse? They should get you going. You'll only need them for a few minutes when starting up, once.
"Garbage" doesn't endear yourself when asking for help on an Apple board though!

Connection problems with Magic Mouse and handoff

I did a clean install of 10.10.3 and since then the Magic Mouse has had problems connecting. First it wouldn't pair. After a few reboots and repeated attempts I was able to pair the mouse with the rMBP. After waking from sleep it now no longer connects. I select the mouse in the Bluetooth menu and connect. Connection appears on the screen, but the mouse doesn't respond. After a few moments I get Connection Lost on the screen.
In addition to the mouse problems I have completely lost any hand off capability to or from the iPhone to the rMBP or back. It's like the Bluetooth connection between the devices is not working or is too weak to function.
It would be very much appreciated if any one has any suggestions on the cause or to a solution.
Thanks.

Hey Tom,
NVRAM and PRAM are, while technically different, effectively the same. Newer systems utilize NVRAM to store the same information that was stored in PRAM on older Macs.
On older Mac computers, similar information was stored in Parameter RAM (PRAM). Resetting NVRAM on Intel-based Macs using the same key combination is like resetting PRAM.

Problem with usb-ports and keyboard

Hi.I reinstaledl windows xp sp3,downloaded all drivers from this site and now i have a problem.When I push any key on keyboard-my usb-ports dont working.Its like they dont get power supply.Sorry for my bad english.And then I stop to push-usb ports start to work.What can I do?Thanks.

hi tony7161,
Welcome to the forums.
It looks like there's a short somewhere when you touch that keyboard and causes the USB ports to stop. May I know what lenovo computer do you have? Have you tried booting into safe mode (you need to press F8 upon boot-up and choose Safe Mode) to see if the issue persists?
Let me know your findings.
Cheers.

Roaming with my mouse and keyboard

I have a mac mini hooked up to my TV in the living room, and a Mac Pro dev machine in my office .. just bought myself the wireless keyboard and mighty mouse ..
shouldn't I be able to roam between the two rooms without having to go through the re-pairing process each time??

I just switched to mac, so I use my old desktopPC at home, and my macbook pro at work, which travels with me. I recently purchased a belkin KVM switch, whose purpose is to allow 2 different computers (my laptop and desktopPC) to use the same set of peripherals (Keyboard, Video monitor & Mouse). That way, theoretically, I just need to plug in the laptop, press a button, and voila! I can switch between my 2 computers.... Since both my mac and DesktopPC has bluetooth capability, I purchased an Apple bluetooth wireless keyboard, thinking I could pair the keyboard to both computers. WRONG!! I quickly found that I could only pair the bluetooth keyboard to one computer at a time, and if I switched computers using the KVM switch (similar to your roaming between your living rm. & office), I need to each time re-pair the bluetooth keyboard to the appropriate computer that I am using... An inconvenience. I wonder if there is a device that would act as a router or switcher of sorts,that would "remember" the keycode, to allow one bluetooth pair ID keycode for multiple computers... Anyone got any ideas?

Problem with Satellite X200 and keyboard to make @ with AltGR and 2

Ok... Here is my problem.
I have Norwegian Vista, language set to norwegian, and us Ctrl+alt+2 or AltGr+2 to get @.
Now I cant make it work.
Nothing happens if I press those buttons and 2. Both buttons work.
If I press AltGr+8 I get this: [
This happened after my last bios upgrade I think.
Any ideas?
In the language toolbar at bottom language set to Norwegian.

Ok. After pressing all the buttons over and over again I have discovered this.
If I hold AltGr in and then press Alt I can use the 234 buttons to get to these items@£$,
but it should do this without having to press the alt button...
So this is what I have to do.
Hold AltGr and while holding altgr press Alt and still holding altgr press 2347890 depending on what sign I need.
Really annoing.

Problem with track pad and keyboard

Mac Air was working fine when suddenly the track pad started behaving like I was highlighting things when moving across the screen and trying to fill in boxes etc also an intermittent delay when typing. Don't know what could have caused this - I haven't changed any settings and wouldn't have thought it was a virus. Any suggestions as to how to fix?

Take it back to the place that installed the battery and ask them to check their installation.
