USB mouse trouble.

I plugged in my old mouse to my new laptop here and it cuts in and out. The computer makes that little chime noise and then again and again cutting in and out. It has done this 2 two other mice. One of which was brand new. Is there anything I can do. I just got the computer 5 days ago for gaming and I can't use the mouse. It is pretty much useless without it.

Have you tried another usb port??? , also try another device in that usb port, it sounds like there may be a loose connection on the port, what OS and mouse are you using they may not be compatable.

  • USB mouse trouble and dissappearing program

    I just bought a new MacBook and started using it Monday. When I close the lid it goes into sleep mode. Whe I open the lid back up it wakes up all things normal. However, the mouse won't function. I have to unplug and plug it back in and it's working again. The computer will go to sleep in its own within 5-10 minutes (I assume it's preset to this). When I wake it back up the mouse won't function again and this time the red optical light starts blinking rapidly.
    Another thing I noticed... I have the gmail notifier installed. The Gmail icon was displayed right next to the bluetooth icon. Today I opened the lid and the gmail icon was nowhere in sight. I waited for a while still did not appear. It was like the program just dissappeared. I had to download and re-install the Gmail notifier.
    What do these things mean? I have had duds in the past. This is my 3rd laptop in 3 years. I'm trusting this one will not give me problems cause I like apple's products!

    Here's the page for the mouse on amazon.com
    http://www.amazon.com/Targus-PAUM01U-Ultra-Retractable-Optical/dp/B00007LTAQ
    Several Mac users reported using it with no problems, and it did not require installing any software.
    There have been some USB issues reported on these boards with OSX 10.4.10 -- so perhaps that is the problem.
    It might be worth playing with the mouse/trackpad settings that control whether or not the trackpad is active when a mouse is attached.

  • Solaris - USB - Mouse

    I've got some troubles using USB Mouse on my fresh installed Solaris 10. Since it was installed I can't use my Mouse and I've nothing but console to use, what makes me frustrated in the long run :)
    please tell me what to do to make my USB Mouse fully working, really don't know what to configure or sth...
    thanks

    Which release of Solaris 10 did you install? If you have Update 4 or Update 5 you are likely hitting bug 6494635 which causes some types of USB mice to stop working. This bug is already fixed in OpenSolaris and will probably be fixed in Update 6 or possibly a patch before Update 6 is released. If you have a service contract you can open a support case to request an interim relief patch to get the fix before the official patch is released for Solaris 10. Another workaround would be to install Solaris 10 Update 3 or an older release.

  • Magic Mouse not working after USB mouse installed

    Hello,
    I have been using my Magic Mouse for years then last week I inserted a USB mouse.  Once I'd finished using the USB mouse I removed it and tried to use the Magic Mouse but it simply didn't work.  Now - this is the odd bit.  The mouse is connected and shows the batteries at 100% and the cursur moves around the screen, however, when I click (left or right) nothing happens.  Oddly enough, the two finger swipe works fine.
    Any ideas???

    Hello DeeDub1978,
    I'm having a little trouble working out which mouse does or doesn't do what, so can we start again.   It is possible there is no link between the faults on the two mice.
    1.     First, to check your USB mouse.   Does it have a nice healthy light when it is plugged in?   And is there a cursor showing on the screen?    And the roller ball in the centre of the mouse ... does that look clean or slightly off colour? 
    2.    Then the Magic Mouse.   Although the batteries show 100%, is there a constant green light below ... or does it flicker.   With these mice there have been several reports of problems after the Yosemite upgrade and not having Yosemite I have no way of checking things out.   So if I say to you, on lower level OSs, an SMC reset would be an early move, I am not sure if it has the same effect with your OS.   If it can be done, do it.    I have to assume you have checked the settings and the pairing.
    Clearly we need to get at least one mouse working and I think the USB one should be the main target.
    Please answer in two separate sections in the way I have set out my questions.
    Thank you for the star; I do hope I can improve and help repair at least one of them.

  • Magic Mouse & USB mouse together on one iMac?

    New iMac with Magic Mouse works fine for me.
    Mr H doesn't like the Magic Mouse and prefers our old Logitech USB wireless mouse with a receiver which is plugged into a USB port. (Mr H mostly uses the MBP, but when he uses the iMac he is unhappy with the MM)  The Logitech mouse works fine with the iMac and the two work together - I just want to be sure I'm not confusing things by running both.
    Is there any reason we can't keep the wireless receiver for the USB mouse plugged in so he can use that when he wants and I can use the Magic Mouse when I want?  I should turn off the MM when I'm not using it and hopefully the setup assistant won't try to find it when it's turned off.
    Thanks,
    Mrs H

    Kappy wrote:
    I've use both without any issue leaving the Logitech's receiver plugged in and the mouse always turned on. The MM, however, I would turn off when using the Logitech. I did not notice any problems this way.
    You shouldn't lose the BT connection unless the battery in the MM is dying. Otherwise, I would take the iMac in for warranty service because you should not have connection problems with BT.
    Did I have a Helpful answer?
    Yes, very helpful but now I'm puzzled/concerned about my BT and my brand new iMac!!
    My bartery for the MM shows at 100% - we're talking brand new here.
    When I finished writing to you above, I turned off the MM, disconnected the Logitech receiver, and let the iMac go to sleep.
    I came back now (USB mouse not connected) tapped a key to wake up the iMac, and turned on the MM.  It connected with no problem to BT and I am up and running.
    i'm going to post this, plug in the USB received, turn off the MM, let the iMac go to sleep and come back and see what - I'll report back.
    In case this helps with understanding what's going on - BT settings in syst pref for MM:
    - BT box checked to ON, but Discoverable not checked - when it was checked it kept searching for new devices each time the iMac woke up.
    -in Advanced options : only the first option do I have checked, open BT setup assistant at startup when no input device is present (I thought about unchecking that, but it asked me if I really wanted to do that implying that if I did and the connection was lost I'd be in trouble - so I left it checked) All others unchecked.
    Any further ideas?

  • T61 Keyboard disabled when external USB mouse plugged.

    Hi,
    I have a T61 with WinXP SP3. Also a Microsoft 4000 wireless USB mouse. If I plug in the mouse too early in the boot process, they keyboard and ultranav stop functioning (probably disabled somehow). The external mouse still works. How to change this functionality?
    Thanks!

    I use a Microsoft 3000 USB-attached mouse.
    I plug the mouse dongle into the USB port BEFORE pushing the Power On switch, and have never had any trouble.

  • USB mouse failure

    The wireless USB mouse I had been using on my Ideapad S10-2 for nearly a year suddenly stopped working. I borrowed a friend's wireless mouse for the time being and later that same day that mouse (only a couple months old) stopped working as well. Neither mouse works on any other laptop either. When you plug them in nothing happens, i.e. they're both dead. fairly expensive mice, too!  Now I don't dare put anything into the USB port where the problem occurred.
    What can be the matter? I still have warranty left and would like to get things fixed, but am unable to find a single phone number or website in Finland to get an address where I could take or send my Lenovo Ideapad. Not one of the phone numbers I've obtained lead anywhere useful, and in fact, the number quoted by Telia-Sonera (where I bought this Ideapad) and several other sources keeps the customer revolving around the same recordings to no end or offers this website for an answer regardless of  which recorded instructions you follow! I do not want discussion; I want my Ideapad fixed before the warranty runs out!
    Thanks, people!

    Thanks for the tips!
    If someone would be so kind as to disable the phone number  you gave, it would save people time and trouble. Also, if there is no place in Finland to take a Lenovo Ideapad to be fixed even though it still has warranty left on it, I wish that information were available when making the decision to purchase, and certainly no later than if something goes wrong. I've spent all kinds of time looking for a dealer that possibly doesn't even exist. I know it's not your fault, but it also is not fun, so maybe you could pass the word along...?
    Again, thanks! Very kind of you!

  • USB mouse does not work

    hi All
    I bought a new HP laptop few days ago,when I installed Win7 pro on it after a few minutes, the usb mouse stopped working. Its light still lights up ,but the cursor does not react. The drivers of the device are installed and working properly. the mouse will
    not work until I click "scan for hardware changes"in Device Management . but when I restart the computer, it happend again . but win7 home edition seems does not have this problem. please help.  thanks  

    Hi,
    I suggest updating the latest BIOS and chipset from HP site, then reinstalling USB controllers to check the result. If any USB hub is used, please bypass it.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/asiasupp/archive/2010/11/23/error-message-one-of-the-usb-device-attached-to-this-computer-has-malfunctioned-and-windows-does-not-recognise-it.aspx
    Also, please perform
    clean boot, disable your antivirus and firewall
    temporarily to avoid any blocking. If the issue persists in clean boot, test the issue in Safe Mode and Device Clean boot.
    Device Clean Boot
    1. Go to Device Manager
    2. Expand "Sound, video and game controllers".
    3. Right Click on Audio device and choose disable.
    4. Please use the same method to disable other dubious hardware such as: internal modem, and CD-R drive. Please note some devices such as video adapter are not available
    to be disabled.
    5. After that, restart the computer and then test the issue. If it does not occur, you can enable the device one by one to narrow down this issue.
    After you found the device that causing the problem, you can resolve by installing last driver or replacing the device.

  • MSI 880GM-e35 Wakeing up from sleep by USB mouse or USB keyboard

    I have two 880gm-e35 boards that will not wake up from sleep by Keyboard or mouse. (S3) sleep condition.
    -They wake up by tapping the power button..ok.
    On the E-35 boards If I set the (S1) Sleep condition where the fans stay on and power light does not blink, they wake up by USB mouse.
    I have a 880gm-e43 that does wake up from (S3)  sleep by usb mouse or keyboard.
    They are configured about the same, the E43 has a couple more options in that area but basically the same.
    Is that normal, The Bios kind of implies that it should wake up from S3, but no luck.
    Not a big deal, but I would prefer the USB wakeup, if possible..!

    Thanks for the reply. On the right track, but could not find that option.
    maybe I will look to see if they have other bios options for that board.
    Thanks again...

  • USB mouse and keyboard don't work on HP Pavilion g7 2203sd, Windows 8.1.

    It is not possible to use a USB mouse or keyboard on the HP Pavilion g7 2203sd notebook running Windows 8.1.
    A wireless mouse used to work (already some time ago), but now wired or wireless mouse and keyboard don't work any more.
    I have tried removing USB devices in the Windows Device Manager and let Windows detect them again, but it does not work.
    I read somewhere that it might have to do with the xHCI USB controller that is installed.
    I tried removing that and connecting the USB mouse but no succes.
    I also looked for driver updates or something to disbale in the BIOS (like xHCI), but nothing found for that.
    Can anybody help me with this problem.
    Thanks!

  • No usb mouse/keyboard detection on K8n Diamond

    My logitech ultrax wireless media desktop ( infrared combined reciever,  only one usb port) does not be detected with a computer reboot .
    When i switch  in the bios" usb mouse detection" at disable ( or !!) enable, it works for a while but a few reboots later is stops working again.
    Already updated and reinstalled the driver.
    someone with the solution ??
    Thanks
    Hans

    Hi,
    My first question is...why so many re-boots?
    I have a wireless USB K/B and mouse similar to yours.
    If my system ever froze (it no longer does this btw) on restarting the PC the K/b would not be seen in BIOS startup.
    You can solve this by doing the following after turning off your PC.
    Simply reach around the back of your PC and switch off the PSU power switch for at least 10 seconds.
    Then turn it back on and power up the system using the regular power switch on the front of the case.
    Voila...the system sees the keyboard...without the need for a CMOS reset.
    It all has something to do with the PSU maintaining power to the USB ports/devices when the PC is shutdown...this is for components such as USB modems/routers or similar devices.
    It takes a PSU power down to reset the relevant USB component circuitry.
    Meanwhile, there might be an issue with your system stability if you keep having to reboot.

  • Wake from sleep when docked to Mini Dock using USB mouse or keyboard attached to dock

    I'd like to know how to wake a T520 connected to Mini Dock (type 4338). I have a basic USB mouse (wired) connected directly to the dock.  I've verified all of the items in Device Manager (mice and USB ports) are enabled for "waking the computer".
    In the article below, Lenovo says it's not possible to wake it by connecting directly to the dock....they say it's "not a limitation of the dock"... but "by design". Of, course that's the line all companies say now a days. But it CLEARLY IS A LIMITATION.  They say the only way is using the power button on the dock.  What a waste.

    After installing Windows 7 did you also install the Chipset Driver, Intel ME Driver, Keyboard and Mouse Driver and the USB 3 Driver?  If you didn't then that would account for the various hardware items not being recognized.  Always install the Intel Drivers first and then the rest.
    The link below is for the available drivers from Lenovo for your model. Just select your operating system in the top box for the correct driver listing.......

  • Macbook pro Late 2011 13.3 inch i7 keyboard and trackpad not working bluetooth showing a cross sign and no usb mouse is detected. Almost dead keyboard and mouse. Earlier same problem used to be solved by opening the lower cover and closing it.

    My macbook pro 13.3 inch i7 late 2011 edition has previously encountered unresponsive trackpad and keyboard. To solve that, I used to open the back cover and then close it. It has been working fine since that. Yesterday, same thing happened, this time I noticed that bluetooth icon is showing a cross sign across it and keyboard and trackpad were unesponsive. After some time , everything worked fine and bluetooth sign was back to normal. Then , suddenly it went back to the problem. I shut it down by holding the power button. When I booted it again, I could not login because keyboard and trackpad were not working. I attached a HP mouse it didnt work. I opened the back cover disconnected the battery and then connected it again, didnt worked. Since then , I have tried many things and nothing has solved the problem.

    @sanjampet
    As you suggested I reset the smc, in the first boot nothing worked. In the second boot, it all worked like a charm. I thought that my problem is resolved now. To test it, I shut it down properly. Next morning, I powered it on, all things i.e, keyboard, trackpad, bluetooth etc. worked and I thought that problem has been solved. When I was just going to visit apple forum to reply you,  the same problem reappeared. A sawtooth cross over bluetooth icon, keyboard not working, trackpad not working,no usb mouse working which worked well when it was fine. I reset smc so many times again and again but same problem continued. Isn't it a problem of the firmware?
    Next time when it will work, I will update its firmware.
    My macbook was bought in dec2011 so no warranty now.
