Does this work with windows? I heard that this can work with non-Mac computers. Can anyone confirm that?

Christopher,I'm currently using this keyboard with my WinXP Boot Camp install (20" Core Duo iMac), and it works pretty well.I've only had one problem--whenever I accidentally engage the caps lock key, the keyboard locks up (i.e., input isn't getting to the XP machine), and so I have to open the battery compartment (to shut the keyboard off), close the compartment, and re-push the power/connect button on the keyboard to make XP take input again. This isn't a big problem for me because I don't use the caps lock key intentionally. As far as setup is concerned, I'm not sure how easily you'll get the drivers for this keyboard on Windows (sans Boot Camp, anyway). Maybe there's a generic BT keyboard driver that would work?

I received this keyboard for Christmas along with a high-quality Bluetooth dongle. It worked for a few minutes, but that's it. It seems to have a problem maintaining pairing with a Windows machine. By the way, I have a pretty standard built to order desktop with an Intel motherboard, dual core Intel CPU, 4 GB of RAM, etc. My point is that there are no proprietary parts inside my Wintel PC whatsoever. I have noticed that the only people who have had good luck with using this keyboard are people with Windows Vista-based laptops. Most laptops come with factory support for Bluetooth "built-in." Look at the success stories with this keyboard and Vista. Anything but laptops? I received this keyboard for Christmas along with a high-quality Bluetooth dongle.

Yes, it definitely works. I got this apple bluetooth-wireless keyboard, and am using it right now with my laptop installed with windows vista to type this message that you're reading right now. I am very satisfied and happy to be able to use it with my computer. I'm loving it. It for sure works with bluetooth-enabled computers.Set-up was very easy. It was done in no time. This was my first time ever to configue a bluetooth device to use with my laptop, and it was a pleasant experience. No problem was encountered whatsoever. My laptop even recognizes this keyboard as "Apple Wireless Keyboard." How sweet and convenient! Yes, it definitely works.

Thanks for asking. I have used this with Windows 7 64 bit only. I do not have a MAC and hence not able to answer your question. Sorry for that.

I can't help you. I don't have a Mac - this does work very well with Windows Vista, 7 and, even, 8.

The one that I have is specifically for MAC so it does not work with windows. If I am not mistaken there is one that will work with PC computers though. I cannot find any specific version information, I apologize for the inconvenience.

Hello Destiny. It actually doesn't work with macs. To be honest, I tried a number of things. However, the only option that I could see was to use the software while running VMWare or Parallels so you can run Windows on your Mac, and be able to allow this to work. However, if you're still looking to have something that works similar, but doesn't cost as much, here are some links that may be helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5s5EvhHy7eQ or http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/ . These options use a Wii remote as an IR camera. I hope this helps :)

Hi Bridget,I use mine with WindowsXP. It does not specify which OS it works with except to state the software supplied is not usable with MAC. There is an email for support, Support@aluratek.com and a phone 1-866-580-1978. I would call them or email first to be sure. It was easy to install and use. The connecting information supplied was clear and concise.

I have only used it on a Mac, but it probably is. The instructions booklet has directions on how to hook it up with Windows.

Hi, Rob Yes, it does work with the Mac, but I'm not sure about the latter versions of the operating system. I have used it with my MacBook Pro, and it's running fine with the OSX 10.5.8 version. Hope that helps. -Steven-

I do not know if it will work with a Mac. I do know that it did not work with some Window computers. It is probably a driver issue.

Hi Brenda, I have not tried this on a Mac. I have it set up on several Windows desktops and laptops with various operating systems (XP, 7 and 8) but have not tried it on a Mac. Hope it works because I absolutely love this thing.

Does not work with MAC, I just checked Logitech site, and they only have Windows listed for this controller. It say if you OS is not listed, nothing is available for it. So that means it wont work! For MAC

Sorry I'm running Windows 7 and it works with it. Don't know if it will work with other operating systems.
