Mac Compatible? I know this is a dumb question since it says Windows XP and Vista compatible already, but does anyone know if this mouse works with the MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo). I have a PC at home, but when I'm on the go I only have my Mac with me. I've had a few mice in the past that said Windows XP only on the box, but when I plugged it into my Mac it works. Any help is greatly appreciated. Mac Compatible?

Hey, I'm not sure if you all have tried this, but this program from Logitech for Macs might help in setting up your mouse. If it does, let me know, I'm looking into buying this or another logitech mouse. http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/494/3129&cl;=us,en

The Setpoint 5.0 software is not supported for Mac, but most of the functions of the mouse in HW will work on a Mac. You can also set up profile settings and burn to on-board memory, which will enable most of the customized functionality on the Mac. Hope that helps!

Hey another solution for Mac users is to download the Steer Mouse driver from the Apple website. It's a great driver for any type of mouse. You can customize buttons by assigned keyboard shortcuts to them (eg - I programmed the back thumb button to be Command + [ for going back in browsers). You can also add profiles for different applications so that the same button will have different functions depending on what application you're running.The only problem is that the driver is shareware and they'll ask for $20 (crazy I know) at the end of 30 days or so. It's a lot of money for a driver, but it's up to you if it's worth it. I like it. Hey another solution for Mac users is to download the Steer Mouse driver from the Apple website.

Terry, I'm sorry, I cannot answer this question since I do not use a Mac. I can only say that it work GREAT with my Lenovo laptop. I am soooo impressed with how the mouse works on just about any surface (such as on the chair arm of my LazaBoy recliner).

Yes. I paired it on "1" with my Macbook. I flipped the switch on the bottom of the mouse to "2" and paired it with my Windows 7 laptop with no additional software. I was able to flip back and forth at will with about a 5-10 second delay for the mouse to figure out what I was doing. I haven't installed any additional software on either computer and I seem to have full functionality on both.

I used it with my MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.4. Totally works, but if i were you i woudn't buy this mouse.

Plugs in to the USB port, the regular mouse is still available which allows you to switch back and forth between the two with ease. (Helpful at first. Not necessary later.) I don't know about the Mac, however. An article from way back in 2008 on Google states: "MacBook: All USB Ports Are Not Equal." There may have been changes since, and there may be ways around it. Truth is, I'm not much help. Sorry!

I have no idea. I bought if for a PC Laptop which other's worked with rather well. But I assumeif your Macbook pro has a USB port and uses a mouse, it might.. But why would you waste your money on a piece of trash like this. It was the worse mouse I ever bought. I used it ONE day and had to toss it in the trash. The scroll knob stopped working almost immediately. It's light weight, feels cheap in the hand. It's clunky to use and doesn't work for long. This mouse is a huge piece of garbage.

I simply plugged the USB relay into my MacBookPro.... turned on the mouse and it worked perfectly. I didn't have to doenload anything... just plug USB to mouse and it worked.

It works with my Mac just fine. Use the "Windows" button on the lower left as you would the Apple command button to do functions like Ctrl C to cut and Ctrl V to paste. I love this package. The mouse is the best I've ever purchased. It's higher so my hand is more relaxed. The key board it extremely thin and nicely curved for comfort with a lot of typing. I am extremely happy with my purchase.

The Genius 2.4 GHz wireless finger mouse is mostly compatible with Mac OS. The "Page" button does not work. Was told by Genius they were working on this bug. Not related to the question asked but worth noting is that the "battery low" indicator doesn't work and that the battery tends to run down quickly if one leaves there thumb on the sensor pad too much of or too long of a/the time. This said, one can get a longer charger cable than what comes with the mouse, I bought a 1-ft (12-inch) cable on line, to operate the mouse while charging.

On their Website they specifically say Mac OS only. So it may work. They have another mouse that comes with a USB receiver that they say is Windows compatible.

The mouse and its software work with Mac OS. Just as a side note, you will have to download the software for the mouse off of their downloads site in order to get the full benefit of the mouse (http://madcatz.com/downloads/).

It does work on Mac OS X. Including the F-keys, Audio Volume, Page Up/Down, etc. Some of the obscure keys I've never tried. The keyboard's mouse navigation buttons work when you slide the little slide-switch to the left (and the regular standalone BT mouse continues to work simultaneously) By far the biggest difference from all other keyboards is location of the 'Apple' key in the center of the palmrest below the spacebar. Aside from training my hands to be clumsy on normal keyboards, I actually like this novel location. A friend and I have been using the Entertainment 7000 Set on our Macbook Pros for a few months. His is a 2 yr-old MBP, mine was new in Nov 2007. Both of us are pretty happy, and have upgraded to the 12/13/2007 release of the Microsoft Intellipoint 6.2.2 Drivers for OS X available from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/drivers/intellipointandintellitypepro.html However, all is not perfect. Sometimes the Keyboard and Mouse "lose connection" for a few seconds. The mouse pointer sometimes skips inexplicably. Since both of us are not big mouse users, we can get by. But I look forward to a driver update that reduces these problems... (but I'm not holding my breath) It may be that these problems could be reduced by using the included USB - Bluetooth transceiver key. But we continue to use the Bluetooth transceivers built into our Apple laptops just because it's convenient not to fool with a plug-in key.

I'm a Mac person, but I think all USB mice will work in either platform. Only a left and right clicker, though, no fancy extras.

No all trackball marble mouses work just fine with the Mac. I have two and I have the one in this picture. I love them, once you get use to them they are so much more easier to move. Enjoy

The mouse will work with Mac. I use a Mac at work and a PC at home. From my PC at home I can program the DPI settings and save them into one of the profile slots on the mouse so that they will be the same on my Mac at work. However, you will not be able to program the button functions for the mouse through the Logitech software on the Mac. Some of the buttons are programmable via the Mac preferences pane but I've found that the Mac doesn't seem to pick up the left and right scrollwheel buttons. The DPI shift button works as expected though. Also, i want to point out that the Logitech G software does have a Mac version. And I am able to program my Logitech g500 and g602 mouse with it. My guess is that the surface calibration feature of the g502 is the thing that's holding Logitech back from making this fully compatible with Mac. They've been progressively making their other G mice mac compatible over the past couple of years. So hopefully the g502 will be added to that list at some point as well.

Yes it works great. Just pair the mouse with the laptop by making sure bluetooth is turned on and then hitting the connect button on the bottom of the mouse. On the mac you can click the 'pair' button from the System Preferences > mouse > setup bluetooth mouse. The two buttons on the top of the mouse work fine and the scroll wheel is a button as well. The side buttons also work too.

YES! Any mouse will work with the MacBook - just won't be able to use all of the features as a Mac Mouse only has one button - in other words, no right click.
