Does it work with only the cable? Can you plug this mouse into your computer with the USB cable and not use the wireless receiver?

Unfortunately, the USB cable can only charge the mouse but not recognize it as a working mouse in the computer. You must need the USB dongle at the same time.

Not sure what you are saying here. You have to plug in the usb receiver or dongle it is small. You can unplug the usb wall charging cord once it is charge; at the same time you can charge the mouse and use the mouse. MX mouse in the past, you had to put on a charging station and use something else. Only bluetooth can you program something and not use a usb dongle.

You would have to go with the Razer Mamba/Orochi if you wanted real cabled operation.

The G700 works that way but doesn't offer the "dark field" laser for glass surfaces. You're stuck with the wireless with this mouse, which I wish I had known before buying it.

I'm not a computer person, but I believe that it just plugs into the power source on your laptop to communicate with the mouse. I didn't have to install and software, so should be fine.

No. This mouse is strictly blue tooth and does not come with a USB receiver. If your PC is blue tooth capable, go to control panel, then click on "Add Device" and look for USB Devices. There's a small button under the mouse to put it in "discover" mode for pairing up. Once it's paired, your PC remembers it. I like not having that USB piece poking out the side of my laptop, and since I only have one USB port, it gets saved for memory sticks.

According to the specs yes...this is what I just saw and you, too, can read about it. Plug it. Forget it. Add to it.Tiny Logitech Unifying receiver is so small it can stay in your notebookAdd a compatible wireless mouse without the hassle of multiple USB receivers. Learn more>

No clue...honestly, I haven't used this item since purchasing it. I would assume as long as the computer recognizes the wireless dongle whatever port its plugged into, it should work. But why you wouldn't prioritize a more local USB port to a mouse and use this device for more external type devices doesn't make sense.

Yes. When I got my new laptop which uses Windows 8, I simply plugged in the wireless connector. The mouse still works.

I have both a wireless mouse and wireless keyboard. The mouse receiver is plugged into a USB port rear of computer. The keyboard receiver is contained within the USB plug , which is plugged into another port in the front of he computer.Even though I have multiple USB ports front & back, the keyboard works best (sensitivity) plugged into the front.

I have not used it since I don't have Logitech keyboard, but yes, that was one of the selling points when I purchased it. I think all their wireless mice come with the universal receiver and you download the setpoint software to manage it.

Same with me on my PC. When I use this mouse, I lose my wifi. I unplug the mouse - wifi connects. Plug in the mouse - wifi disconnects ...

Everything but the mouse works. There are no instructions to how the mouse connects if you figure it out please let me know. The rest of the things work I love the multiple usb plugs and the hdmi wire I can hook it up to my t.v .

No, the mouse is USB 2.0, but it is compatible with a USB 3.0 slot on your computer.

Hello,This mouse will connect via Bluetooth without the need of the Unifying software. I just did it before answering you, and it has been immediately detected by my computer. Works perfectly.

It requires a USB port to plug in the unifying receiver. Your notebook has USB ports, so it should work fine. My wife uses the mouse with her laptop (Windows 8) all the time.

I don't know, I returned it. But I don't see why not, it's just like any other wireless mouse, you plug the receiver into your computer's USB and a battery into the mouse - voila, your mouse works.

Sounds like it might be a reception problem with the usb receiver and your mouse. Make sure you don't have other device causing the issue. Also try simply turning the mouse off then on again. I've had this fix some issues. Also remove and reinsert the usb receiver will sometimes fix issues.
