i had one of these mice and it crashed bought another and its been working ever since. batteries dont last 6 months though only about 1 for me but im always using it
@stormseye23 I have the same mouse and what I have to do is turn it over and press the little black button a couple of times. It usually comes on then. It is located where the receiver clips in on the bottom. Hope it works for you.
It's really a problem because I use it in IT class and the first hour or so I'm stuck with my laptop's crappy touchpad until the red light on the mouse turns on and it can connect.
i also have that problem (sometimes) I would just exchange the batteries from the remote of my sony bravia hdtv (or any other battery-operated device) and it works. . .
I got this mouse less than a week ago and it's broken. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the dongle or the mouse (they both light up) but it wont connect. Usually had to press the connect button 1/2 the time to get it going as well. When it worked it was nice...
I have a problem with this mouse, the USB work fine, but the laser thing in the mouse flashes very fast and the cursor stop moving, WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?
Its a piece of shit mouse dont get it. This mouse drain battery like american's car with gas. It also disable the the power setting for you pc. Get a wired mouse from Logitech if you dont want to change battery every week and fix the damn thing so it connect.
I have the same exact problem you had. My mouse dongle is broken. This is the second time it's happened to me on this same type of mouse. The one that broke, broke about 2 weeks ago and this weekend i bought another one exactly like it and it is already broken. I'll probably get a different one because it broke again!
Help me please. I have the Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse with a wired USB 2.0. If there's a light it means the mouse is on. Long time ago it wasn't really working i had to press it hard to make the light come up. I left it in my closet for 3 months (at least) and then i try it, it doesn't work.
Last night, I was trying to open the back of the mouse, where the battery compartment is, and the spring where the button presses to pop it off came out!!! I was so upset, because this was such a good mouse. It does still work though.
That's unfortunate, glad it still works though :D If you call microsoft, they'll send a new one for free (I had to and they didn't even make me send the old back)
hey mine worked fine for a long time but all of the sudden its not working.the usb addaptor for it is stayign at green and they eye in the mous is just staying red.....but im not getting any mouvment out of it
You can use this mouse with any USB 2.0 port (it worked on my desktop)...To turn it off, you have to put the USB dongle back into the socket (it pushes a small button, turning the mouse off).

@stormseye23 Try holding the little button down for a few seconds, that's how mine works. If that doesn't work, it's time for a new one.
