Microsoft Cordless Mouse does not work with this hub device? For some reason, my cordless mouse only works when plugged directly into Surface. Why?

You would need to plug in the power usb cable or a ac adapter to give it the juice it needs to power the receiver.

I do not have a surface Microsoft pad. But this product has an exterior power source to plug it in a regular AC wall. When I was using it with my Mini Mac, it could not run without being connected to an exterior power source.

I have a usb wireless mouse & keyboard both work w/o a hiccup. I also have Bluetooth mouse & keyboard; they don't work very well at all. Frequently have to "wake" them up & after about a half-hour they time-out completely. I switched to usb wireless & haven't had an issue, yet (after about 2 years of constant use). If you're running Windows 7 on it, I recommend upgrading to Windows 8. It fixes 95% of the issues w/ this machine. Windows 7 is notorious for having issues loading drivers. Under Windows 7, my pen, printer & Wacom tablet drivers wouldn't load and/or would have glitches. This is on several different machines not just my Asus. Once I upgraded to Windows 8 (it was only $14 at the time), all those problems went away. If you're using Windows 8 already, maybe just double check your peripherals do actual work on another machine & try loading the drivers manually from the mouse manufacturer's site. Also, loading the Windows updates from the Microsoft site may help. Best of luck. Hope it works. I love my Asus Slate.

It comes with a tiny USB plugin. You plug it into you USB port and Windows does the rest. I use mine when I'm streaming Netflix to my tv. I will be sitting ten feet away from my laptop and the mouse works perfectly. I highly recommend this device. One other thing, it has an automatic shut off so you don't have to worry about changing batteries all the time.

You can just plug your cordlrss USB into your Acer, and click your mouse. You have to put two AAA batteries inside themouse, and turn on the small switch at the bottom. You can find Cordless USB at the bottom of mouse,

It worked when connected directly to my laptop, but not when connected to a USB hub. It may require more power than available from a non-powered hub port. Good luck.

I was unable to get this mouse working on a Windows machine. There is no Bluetooth dongle that you can plug into your PC. The internal mechanisms only seem to work with a Mac.

Hi, Thank you for contacting customer service. This mouse works as long as there is an USB port on your device. We appreciate your support.

I had a similar problem where when I connected it, the surface would only detect the mousepad on it, I wasn't able to type anything. Try using this to see if it will help http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/surfacc-surfcover/surface-type-keyboard-wont-work/72bae7f2-f81d-427f-b4a1-3f3390007c1b

Are you asking me if i will sell the USB adapter ? I'm sorry but I will not, my surface tablet has only 1 USB Input so the adapter is a bonus if i'm using the mouse because the mouse is paired with it's USB for my mouse to be connected wirelessly so the USB adapter has 2 input and I'll still have 1 more slot if I need to connect another one.

Yes, I have. The pad does not work at this very moment! I use a wireless mouse. Earlier this week, it did not work. I replaced the battery and it works again. Regarding the pad, have you tried the computer's built-in troubleshooting process?

If you find out, will you let me know? Since getting my new Dell laptop for Christmas, I've bought three (3) Microsoft mice. Each one failed after a couple of months, and I don't even know how to get Microsoft to honor its warranty. The problem seems to be with the antenna/sending unit - have relaced batteries in the receiver, but there's a tiny light on the antenna that doesn't light up one day, and then you're toast. I love these things when they work - am tearing my hair because the third one died last month. Good luck.

If I'm remembering right, there are many mouses that will work with it. I see the picture you put up showing the keyboard and mouse, but in the picture I don't see the transmitter that plugs into the back of your computer and that communicates with your mouse. Do you have that? Its a black, oval shaped transmitter with a usb cord that sits flat on your desk, and on it is a button, right below where it says Microsoft. That button, when pushed, transmits to whichever mouses are compatible with the keyboard, to link and make operable the mouse. Microsoft sells keyboards of many kinds without a mouse, and one has to go buy a mouse that is compatible. You can call Microsoft or your local comp store and they will tell you which ones are compatible, just look on the back of the keyboard for its model number, etc, and give it to them. Make sure you shop around to find the best price on the mouse they say is compatible. Good luck!

A Bluetooth mouse will work with this. I have a Microsoft Bluetooth mouse working through the Targus. A USB "wireless" mouse will only work with the adapter that came with it.

https://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/support/hardware-and-drivers/add-a-bluetooth-device Turn on bluetooth on your surface and turn on the mouse and hold the bluetooth button on the bottom. Give it some time to pair.
