I installed the software & followed the installation instructions (I thought), but the wireless mouse & receiver (which the system reports is working normally) doesn't seem to do anything. The old mouse is still installed & connected & works. What should I do to get the new mouse working? Be gentle with me I'm not a computer wizard...
Users that have the Microsoft Wireless Laser Keyboard 6000 and/or the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 have been experiencing issues for the past few months with their screen saver failing to turn on as well as any power saving features. The problem was linked to the new 3.0 version receiver shipping with the new 6000 series mouse and keyboards and the media center components.Â
Microsoft has finally released an update for these users so that they can use screensavers once again in Windows Vista. Follow theses steps to get the update for your computer:
Click on the Start Button and type in Windows Update....
Maybe I could get an answer to my question that I should had asked when I was buying. This wireless mouse uses two "AA" batteries or rechargeable batteries. What about turning it off for the night or whenever I leave my computer? So that I don’t change them every two-three days.
On my Windows Vista Home Premium system am unable to install my MS Wireless Laser Mouse 5000 v.1.0. My MS Wireless Laser/Keyboard 6000 v.2.0 works fine. I receive a message from my system that Windows needs to install drivers for Microsoft Wireless Desktop Receiver 3.1. The instructions for the Receiver, Keyboard and Mouse, which came together as a package, makes reference to a Help screen, but I cannot find anything installed. I looked at KB940199, and attempted to install the named driver; but I received an error message that Windows encountered an error, 0X8007000d, the Data is invalid.
i recently got a new wireless Microsoft keyboard/Mouse combo. The mouse is too large for my hand. I do a lot of Photoshop and my hand is killing me, so I tried to install my old Logitec (comfortable) mouse. No go..I downloaded the newest Vista 64 bit drivers for both. The Microsoft keyboard has a stick-type USB. The Logitec mouse has a little USB thingie that sits on the desk. Only one of them will work at a time.I've tried every configuration I can think of and can't get them both to work at the same time. The thing is, when I got this new computer (with Vista) they both worked together fine..until I installed a new video card. Now they won't play nice together at all. The mouse hangs once in a while and akthough I have set it to be as precise as it can be..it
I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit, up to date, Microsoft Office 2003 and a Microsoft Optical Mouse 3000 with Intellipoint 6.1 (Takes breath....) Under XP, if used the wheel in word it would scroll lines of text by rolling the wheel and zom in-out if I rolled the wheel while holding CTRL down on the keyboard.
I recently purchased a Dynex wireless optical mouse for my laptop running vista. after installing the driver and software I can not get the mouse to work. When I physically move the mouse the light on the receiver blinks but the mouse does not move on the screen. I tried plugging the mouse into another system I have running xp and have zero problems. When I open device manager and look under universal serial bus controllers, the standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller says it does not have enough free resources.
I need to get wife, who is bedridden with progressive MS, a laptop so she e-mail and skype with her friends. It will also keep her brain stimulated and away from watching tv all day. I was looking at one from HSN for $699 a Gateway,15.6,AMD Athlon II Dual Core,4GB ram, 320HD,Blu-ray Drive,and webcam but today I saw a Toshiba 15.6, Intel Core i3 proceesor,4GB ram, 320HD,webcam & micorphoneWiFi 802 for $699-$150 Instant savings at Fry's. I am looking for your input as to what is the better of the two or do you recommend something else. I have a wireless mouse and keyboard if she has trouble with her hand/eye coordination.
If I let my computer sit for roughly 1 hour or more the mouse stops working and I have to restart the computer via the keyboard. I've tried reconnecting from the transceiver and switching the mouse on/off and pressing the reset button. None of these things seem to do the trick.
Two days ago my LogiTech USB Wireless mouse just suddenly stopped working. I was using it when playing LoL (League of Legends), and just went to restroom and when I came back, it's not working anymore. I have thought that maybe it's just the batteries, and I've change it but still not working. I convinced myself that maybe it just died. I bought today a MS Wireless Mobile Mouse 3000, to my surprise it doesn't work. I've checked all my drivers and they we're up to date.
I am using a windows Vista 32 bit home premium notebook computer for which the wireless network detection has stopped working. I updated the driver for the built in wireless card with out any results. I also tried a plug in wireless card which windows detected and said was working properly and this did not work either. This leaves me to believe that something is wrong with the OS. I can get on the internet via dialup modem and also by the ethernet connection with a DSL modem. I have been to several hotspots that I know have wifi and no networks show up. All critical windows updates have been installed.
I have a Comfort Optical MS mouse, PC details in Rig Specs...
anyway, before installing intellipoint software, pressing the wheel button down, while browsing websites, enabled a circle on the pointer, where you could move the mouse up or down to scroll the site... now intellipoint has changed it to the 3D Flip... what is the previous action called? and how do i get it back if the option is not listed in the intellipoint drop down for available commands?
I have two identical monitors for one computer running Vista with two identical graphics cards. My arrow indicator jumps to the wrong monitor screen and is hard to return to the intended original monitor. Can the Microsoft Programmable Mouse, or other mouse, be programed with arrow indicator to left monitor/arrow indicator to right monitor switch? How? I have a Dell mouse now.
I just recently bought a laptop (HP Pavilion dv7-1267cl), a bluetooth usb dongle and a microsoft bluetooth mouse 5000. I connected the usb dongle and the computer recognize it without any problem. What I need to do to pair the mouse with my computer? I turned on the bluetooth on my cell phone an it found the mouse. So it means that the mouse is working properly.
Until today, this mouse was working nearly perfectly. There was one incident when the mouse stopped working with my computer, and after a restart, it was fine. However, today it stopped working, and I restarted my computer only to find that my computer was now asking for a pairing number when I tried to connect the mouse. I have no clue what this mouse's pairing number is or why I would need it when it was working just fine earlier without one. I checked the bottom of the mouse to see if I could find a pairing number, but nothing was to be found, and I do not have the box or the items that came with the mouse.
How do I connect my mouse? Note: The mouse shows up when I search for bluetooth devices, but the problem arises from the fact that my computer now asks for a pairing number to connect the device, a number I do not have. In addition, it was working just fine earlier today, so I do not believe it is a software issue. If anyone could shed any light on this situation, I would be grateful. I'm at a loss of what to do.
I am running Windows Vista and I have a cordless mouse which requires a little gadget into slot a USB port. My screensaver does not work when this little gadget is plugged in.
Do you know how to get rid of the annoying "wireless mouse battery level is critically low" popup? This is a ms wireless laser mouse 5000. It just started doing this about 6 weeks ago, before that it was fine. Did an update install new driver software or something? I just want to get rid of the popup, the mouse works okay.
Why does my mouse burn thru batteries so fast? it's always blinking, if i want batteres to last more than a couple days i have to remove them when not in use
I have a Logitech G7 wireless mouse hooked up to my Vista 64 box, and recently it's been acting up. From time to time, the mouse seems to just reset. It has a button on it to adjust DPI, and there are three levels at which to set it. I always have it set to high, but it frequently resets to medium and isn't functional for a few seconds.
I note that a common subject here is the problem of USB wireless mice not being recognized by computers. For what it's worth the following is my experience. This evening my 3 year old Logitech wireless mouse just stopped working, abruptly, and I started getting repeated messages of an unknown USB device even with nothing attached. I tried the mouse on two other computers...it worked fine. I tried a system restore from yesterday with no results. I followed the advice offered on other threads to delete USB ports and reboot...no go. Still weird behavior. I noted that one person with a similar problem turned off notebook and removed and reinstalled battery...whalla! It works. The mouse now functions and no more strange messages. I have Vista Home Premium 64 bit on a Sony Vaio notebook.
im building another computer and it will be my main system. I am a gamer and use the computer alot. I need a good (possibly wireless) keyboard and mouse. I was thinking microsoft or logitech but theres so many!
I was given a wireless KB & mouse and I'm trying to find out if I can use it on Vista. The name of it is Eagle Touch multimedia pro XP. Obviously the XP part jumped out at me, I would like to know if it's compatible with Vista? My computer, Dell Inspiron 531 is almost a year old.
My wireless mouse and keyboard no longer work. The mouse stoped working six mounths ago, and the keyboard a few days ago. I put in new batteries and read a couple of post on this forum. There are 5 listings under keyboards and thay all show to be working properly. There are 3 mouse and all show to be working properly.
I bought the above MS mouse and use it with Vista 64. It works fine. It has on the side an ENLARGE button which also works fine, but I see no way how to disengage it.
I have a microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse, they both work in vista but I have no software for my keyboard to change functions and my mouse to change buttons. I can download intellipoint 6.2 but it will not install, I have tried all the suggestions on google searches, I just keep getting not enough disk space, well I have 425gb. I will attach image. of message.
I just purchased a Wireless Mobile Laser Mouse 6000 thinking it would be compatabile with Vista 64. After the computer sleeps or hibernates the scroll wheel slows down to a very slow crawl. I have to disconnect the nano receiver wait about 2 minutes and then reconnect.
I have managed to break the bluetooth dongle that came with this keyboard/mouse and have tried 3 different brands of dongles with no success. My question is does Microsoft replace the dongles with this Mouse/Keyboard
