Wireless mouse not connecting

I lost my wireless mouse connection. I replaced batteries, to no effect. Any suggestions?

After toggling all my settings in Bluetooth I finally did the most obvious thing of all -- checked that the mouse batteries were not reversed, which they were. Almost too embarrassing to admit. Thanks for the suggestion.

Why is my wireless mouse not connecting

My 1 year old magic mouse suddenly disconnected after the batter

Were the batteries you took out corroded?   If so, have you thoroughly cleaned the contact points inside the battery compartment?   And if you have to do that, do not forget to clean the replacement batteries you used as they may now also be contaminated.
What brand batteries did you replace the old ones with?     Were they from a discount store?
Opinion here, in general, is that you should use, Energiser, Eneloop, Duracell(2400) or Apple batteries (I personally find Apple's quite poor).
If you have rechargeable batteries AND regular batteries, do not mix them.
If you use White spirit or its equivellent to clean only DAMPEN the cotton bud.   And give the cleaned parts adequate time to dry out before reconnecting.

Would you please try manually set the DNS address on client NIC to the IP of your server, then try run the connector again?

When I wake my iMac from sleep, the wireless does not connect. I have to shut shutdown and then restart and then it connects. I am running Lion 10.7.3 Any thoughts?

Been waiting along time for this problem to be fixed. Unfortunately the update hasn't help at all and even made the situation worse. Now my airplay connection from iMac to stereo abruptly stops after about 10-15 min. so I have to go over and quit wifi, start it up and find my airport network. Not sure why it always has a problem with the apple airport network. My neighbor's pc network is always there.

Ultraslim Plus Wireless Keyboard and Mouse not connecting

I just bought the Ultraslim Plus Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, but I can't get either to work. My machine (ThinkPad X230-2324-HQ4) does not have a CD drive for me to use the install CD, so I found and downloaded the driver from your support site:
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-77112
I installed the driver properly and restarted my computer, but neither the keyboard or mouse will connect still. I've checked the batteries, and I've verified that my ThankPad's Bluetooth drivers are up to date and working properly, but I still can't seem to get it to work. I've found posts on here from people with similar issues, but they seem to all be related to the Ultraslim, not the Ultraslim Plus. The Ultraslim Plus does not include a USB dongle for connection.
Please help!

The Ultraslim Plus Wireless Kit is Wireless 2.4G solution, it is not Bluetooth solution. It has a dongle when shipping. Maybe you can check the mouse or Keyboard inside and find the dongle. You can open the mouse battery bin, it should be a dongle at top of two batteries. If you still can not find the dongle, I suggest you call the Lenovo help center since you don't have the dongle.

HP wireless mouse not working (sometimes)

I have an HP wireless mouse, product number LB454AA, model no. MORFFIUO, s/n CNP25106C3.
well, i bought it about almost 2 years ago, but, even since I bought it, he had problems, and continues to have them...
the problem is, that sometimes, the mouse just doesn't work. I slide the power button and the red light just flashes, and its not like flashing 5 - 5 seconds, just flashes once.
I dont know what is heppening, not even with new batteries work...
and besids, if I click connect + the power button, the red light works, but the mouse doesn't do anything...
another thing is, that majority of the times, I put a new batterie, I wait like 30 minutes or 1 hour and the mouse returns to work again.
yesterday I put a new batterie on it, today i put another because the mouse was not working anymore.
does anyone know why is this heppening?
i cant even speak to support, the website dont recognize my mouse through product number.
i did not bought my mouse in this website, but is for you to see wich mouse is:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-Wireless-Mobile-Mouse-Black/dp/B004OXU4TG

Hello TwistedJ,
It would appear by your description that the mouse is faulty. If this behaviour started since the mouse was new 2 years ago, you should have returned it to the store you purchased it for a replacement or contacted HP Support directly for warranty help.
HP warranties its wireless mice for up to one year.
There is really nothing you can do at this point.
I'm sorry.
I do not work for HP.

Wireless iBook not connecting to Airport Express

As in previous discussions i've seen, all of a sudden my iBook which i have used for quite some time now without any major problems will not find my airport express wirelessly, i am using a router and the same connection for my desktop (hardwired) and the desktop works 100%, i've even replaced the cable from the router to my Airport Express and when I take the very same cable that goes from the router to the AE but plug it straight into my iBook it works 100%, but when plugged into the "AE" the iBook is not finding it, or actually it does come up in the list of available wireless ports (I live in new York city so there's a bunch on there at any given time) but it does find mine automatically as it used to, but when I try to connect to it when i find it in the list, it says "There was an error joning the AirPort network"... if i hit 'try again' several times it it will evntually (somrtimes after 3 tries othertimes after 30 tries)... but even after it says in the menue bar that I am connected with 100% strength, nither iTunes Air tunes finds the AE connection nor Safari (which says "You are not connected to the internet.")
At the browsers suggestion i then go to the network diagnostics and run through the prompts, until it gets to the 'Select AirPort network" window and nothing shows up.
Then i tried the AirPort Admin utility and it does not find my base station either.
My connection to the internet is 100% without the AE, so obviously something is wrong with my iBook airport card or the AE itself.
Yesterday I uplaoded the newest software 6.2 then reset the AE and actually it worked 2 sessions, then I got back on later in the evening and was having all the same problems...
so I read on these discussions that going back to 6.1.1 was what was helping others, well so far it has made no difference here.
that said the signal that it did find after trying again and again and that does show up in the pulldown signal menue drops off eventually... and all this while still not being able to connect to the internet or airtunes wirelessly. and again all the while my connection on my desktop (hardwired through the same router) works 100% (I have verizon DSL and it's pretty great.
THE AIRPORT EXPRESS GREEN LIGHT IS ON as well.
I have not done a 'hard 5 second re-set" of the AE becuae i thought it might be difficult to imput all the settings all over again, since i did not set it up myself originally... is this my only choice? can some one give me any other ideas? thank you.

Glen,
I feel your pain buddy - same issue here. I have a PG G4 running AE as well. I have internet through Comcast which is coming from the wall, into the modem, and then to the AE. I have faced similar problems as you at least twice in the past three days. Tonight I went to check my e-mail after reading for a couple hours and my drop-down showed a check next to my network, the AE status light was green, and it looked fine. However, when I went to check e-mail I was not connected and same thing with internet. I finally launched Airport Admin Utility and my base station did not show up in the source list - hmmmm?
I am a little concerned about this myself because it is frustration. If you push the reset button on your base station while it's still plugged into power and hold it down for five seconds it will go through a "hard" reset (keep in mind this is not the same as a "factory default" reset). Have you done this before? It takes about 45 seconds. When done and the status light is back to green, you can join the Apple network _______ (some strange numbers) from your airport drop down and then launch Apt. Admin Utility. When you double click on your base station from the admin utility it will come up with a list of profiles. It will allow you to select your previous saved profile from a list. Click on your previous profile, click OK, and the AE will reset with your previous settings. This has gotten mine back up and running, but it's a littl disconcerting that it's happened so much
Any other thoughts out there? Anyone else having these problems and have suggestions for troubleshooting?

Apple Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard not Connecting to iPad

Hey, I try to connect my Apple Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard is not connecting to my iPad. I tap Bluetooth "On" and it searches for devices. Then I slide the switch on the back of my keyboard to the green light and the iPad picks it up and says "Not Paired." So I tap the keyboard and it just spins and spins and spins until the keyboard times out and powers off. Then it disappears and my iPad can't find any devices. I repeated the process several times and I got the same result.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

I had a very similar problem, with a new model wireless keyboard. The set-up is not very intuitive (and the instructions for both the iPad and the keyboard are not particularly helpful). Here's how I got it to work:
1. If the keyboard has already been paired with another object -- e.g., I was testing out my iMac keyboard -- you should be completely out of range of that other object (more than 30 feet away).
2. Make sure Bluetooth on the iPad is disabled.
3. The keyboard should not be "on" -- i.e., no solid green light.
4. Press and hold the power button on the keyboard until you get a blinking green light. This should take just a few seconds.
5. Turn on Bluetooth on the iPad.
6. At this point, it should detect the keyboard and instruct you to enter a combination of keys to pair the two devices.
I found that you have to follow this sequence or it won't work. For example, if you have Bluetooth on on the iPad before holding the power button on the keyboard, it won't work.
I hope that helps.

Magic Mouse NOT CONNECTING in Lion

My Magic Mouse has had a constant issue connecting to the MacBook Pro ever since upgrading to Lion. It seems there is an obvious issue between Lion and Bluetooth. I keep waiting for Apple to release an update for Lion, hoping they'll fix it.
Are you having this problem? If so, please reply below and let's get noticed.
What I do to fix it:
All I end up having to do is go to the Bluetooth icon (on the top right of the screen), go to Apple Magic Mouse, Open Mouse Preferences, and just wait without need to click anthing else. It takes a few seconds and then it'll connect. But I have to do this everytime I wake my MacBook Pro from sleep. It does fine connecting after a re-start or shut down but never from sleep.
What about you?

I have a similar problem in Lion but not Snow Leopard. At start up, sometimes both my Bluetooh (BT) Mouse and BT Keyboard connect just fine. Other times, one or the other does not connect at start up, but never both. With the keyboard, after the window comes up saying a keyboard is not connected, I turn the keyboard off then on and it will then connect. More times than that, it is the mouse that does not connect. I have a wired mouse that I use to connect it from the BT menu and everything is fine until I shut down and then restart (usually the next day). I don't think it is the PRAM because sometimes it works fine so it must be retained in the memory and I don't want to reset it if I don't have to and loose other settings. Same with resetting SMC, I prefer not to reset it. I have a second bootable hard drive with Snow Leaopard on it, and when I switch to that, it never has a problem. It seems to me to be a quirk in Lion. Just looking to see if others have this same type of problem.

Mouse not connecting automatically after waking from sleep

Hi,
When I open my MacBook after it's been asleep, my apple bluetooth (non-mighty) mouse does not connect automatically. I have to repeat the setup new device wizard to get the mouse to work. This is 100% consistent and occurs every time.
This mouse was previously my son's and has a particular "affinity" for his computer. For example, before he deleted it from his own system preferences, the mouse would connect to his computer instead of my own even if he was rooms away from me. (this isn't strictly related, since it still occurs even if his powerbook isn't here or is sleeping).
Thanks,
Diane

Hello Diane:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Try clicking the mouse if it does not automatically pair.
I would also delete the preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.

Passport Wireless Does not connect

Ever since I downloaded and installed the newest OS version for the Passport(10.3.0.1418) I can't connect my phone via wireless. The phone shows the wireless spot but just doesn't want to connect. Is there a bug in the OS version i am using? If so then how can I get any OS update/fixes if the wireless does not work?

if you renamed your MyPassport to be something else (for example) mypassport555, then you need to enter: mypassport555.localThat was the most helpful thing I read today, so I'd to register to reply and thank you.Thanks for that, pal. Really appreciate it.

Connected to Wireless Network, Not Connected to Internet...

Hi All
I recently had my NVIDIA graphics card replaced as it freaked right out the other day.
I took my MacBook Pro home yesterday and everything was perfect. It connected to my wireless network @ home as normal, and was functional all night.
I have come to work today, and it automatically joined up with the network here. Only problem is, that whilst it connects to the network here, and obtains an IP address as well, as soon as I try to connect to the internet, it says that I am not connected to the internet!!!
Now the finer details:
* I have reset EVERYTHING. Routers, Modems, Computers etc
* All firmware is still the same as it was pre-nvidia fix up.
* Distance is not a problem, I am sitting next to the wireless router.
* An ethernet cable from the router to my computer ALLOWS access to the internet
* My Iphone can connect wirelessly to the same network and browse the internet.
* A windows PC can connect wirelessly to the same network and browse the net.
* I can see that it is connected to the router AND given an IP address.
Please help!!!

I had the same problem. I sent my MBP to get a Logic Board/Nvidia fix and when it came back I could no longer connect to networks using DHCP. I have to manually put in my IP, Subnet, etc. for every network I join.
Randomly about a week in I had some pop-up window show up asking me to allow incoming network connections for something and when i clicked on it I was able to us DHCP again. Just tonight it stopped working and I am once again in the position where i have to manually input IP info, etc.
Super Frustrating
