Is this mouse compatible with an iPad? Total novice just purchased an iPad Retina. Looking for a reliable mouse that's not too pricey.

Yes it is good. I don't know about how it is gonna work with ipad but m using it for my laptop and it works totally fine. No installation is needed just insert the USB and it works . I hope it answers ur question.

No it's not compatible with it. My husband has an Ipad and he says that most Ipads don't have a usb drive nor a pointer like a computer for using a mouse.

I don't think so as you have to plug a piece into a USB port that I don't think is on an IPad. I believe you would need a blue tooth type signal.

Folks, why post a response if you don't know the correct answer? The correct answer is No, it won't work with an iPad. It has nothing to do with whether the iPad has a USB port or not--you can actually get USB host port adapters for flash drives and such--but rather with the fact that iOS has no concept of a mouse pointer. Android does, and either connecting a USB mouse or pairing a Bluetooth mouse makes a traditional mouse pointer appear on screen. But neither the iPhone nor the iPad support that, period. So don't get this mouse for an iPad.

I'm using mine on an Asus, and it works fine. Don't know about an iPad, though...

Why would you want to use a mouse with an iPad? Its graphical interface simply isn't designed for one. If you don't like using your fingers on the touchscreen, you bought the wrong thing. Sell the iPad & get a Mac Air or Windows ultrabook.

hmm..:/ make sure the mouse has new batteries and the light sensor is working on the bottom. I also know that the little usb drive that is included with the mouse installs the device or file onto your PC so you can use it. It worked in seconds with my ASUS laptop, but im not sure about apple products.. sorry

I bought my mouse to go with my MacBook Pro and it works well. I just recently got a MacBook Air. So I just tried out my mouse with my Air and it works fine. Your problem makes me think the specific mouse you have is defective. Hope this helps!

Check with Logitech on specific model numbers that work with iPad. Mine is specific to Windows in that it has the "Windows" key that looks like a window.

I just used this mouse with my Nexus 7 (2013) and it works great! The reason I bought the mouse to begin with, was to use it with my iPad 3 and it did NOT work... Worst of all, I paid $29.97 for it as well. This baby is headed back to the store!

I think it's been designed for Apple's wireless keyboard exclusively. It works with all the iPads (and probably any non-Apple tablet). I honestly don't know if a Bluetooth mouse will work on the iPad.

I do not own an iPad or iPad 2 so I do not know the answer. I do understand, however, that "Bluetooth" is an industry standard form of electronic device communication for use in wireless phones, computers, gaming consoles and tablets, etc. The Bornd mouse I am using with my Asus T100 tablet works fine. I knew that my tablet supported the Bluetooth standard before I ordered the mouse by researching the tablet specifications. I assume that you can do the same for the iPad 2. Good luck, good hunting!

The trackpad does not work for iDevices. The laser pointer shines on ipads just fine. Though I'm not sure why you would ask about that.

Yes--and I find that the scroll wheel works more responsively--smoothly, if you will--than several of my other mouse choices. I have put the expen$ive Apple mouse that came with my new iMac in the drawer and use this one instead.

No. My (refurbished) iPAD 3 died two weeks after I got my keyboard. I was very happy with my logitech solar keyboard, I would certainly get one again and have no hesitation in recommending this item highly...with one qualifier. I have been so unhappy with my iPAD 3 and Apple's complete indifference that I will never buy another iPAD, nor, for that matter, any other Apple Product. For me, I have learned my lesson: Tablets are inadequate for me. if I need something smaller than a lap-top, it will be a fully capable net-book. Depending on your needs and usage pattern, you may find this to be true for yourself. If you have any iPAD already, you have my sincere sympathy, condolences and wishes for better luck than I had! will not be smaller nor less capable than a net-book, hybrid perhaps.

It is a bluetooth mouse. I use it with a Mac Mini and it works great. I'm guessing it will work with an ipad, but I haven't actually used it on my ipad.

I have a Galaxy Tab 4 and I ordered this but I can't get it to connect. Is it compatible with this mouse, or do I need to return it? How do I connect it?

Because the iPad is strictly a touch device, it does not have a mouse pointer. Because it does not have a mouse pointer, it does not support a mouse, Bluetooth or otherwise.

No. You cannot scroll with this mouse. I wrote this review during my PC/Windows days. Now that I use a Mac, I am hooked on their touch pad scrolling. So, if you're a Mac user, this mouse is irrelevant. If you're a PC user, and scrolling is important for you, then this mouse is not it.

Order it direct from Apple online (a BTO or build-to-order order), especially if you don't want the Magic Mouse that comes with the standard machines. Otherwise order a Magic Trackpad separately.

No, I would not expect this to work with an iPad. The iPad does not have a mouse to maneuver.

I have had no issues using it with my iPad Air. I also use it with my Microsoft Surface and it works perfectly there also.
