Connected Geared Opical/Bluetooth Mouse to iMac with Yoesmite 10.10, Mac keeps turning on by itself, place in sleep mode, turns on in a few minutes, ?,

There are lots of bluetooth issues with Yoesmite ... you can Google the problem and see it is very common. Hopefully Apple fixes them quickly. I am able to connect this mouse to my MAC, but not my bluetooth keyboard.

Did you follow the instructions and let it charge for 24 hours before first using it? I have my MBP set to "Better Battery Life" and sleep/turn off display after 15 minutes, in Energy Preferences. After watching 75 minutes of video over WI-FI on battery, and Bluetooth turned on for the mouse, I have about 30% battery life left. I don't think that's quite as good as the Apple battery when it's new, but I can live with it.

http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1209/en_US/Apple_Magic_Mouse_UG.pdf Here is a link to the bluetooth mouse user guide. Make sure you do not have a usb mouse already plugged in and your wireless mouse is turned on with the green light on. when you restart your mac and the computer does not detect one, it will open the wireless assistan screen and you can go from there. If that doesn't happen read the short manual for hooking it up. Good luck

he is not complaining about the computer's bluetooth compatibility, but that of the mouse. i know you want to praise your mac so that the whole world knows, but please try to stay on point.Having said that, this mouse is a failed attempt at copying the Apple magic mouse.

It's not bluetooth! It connects via a usb fob. I think there is a compartment on the under side of the mouse that stores the tiny fob? (sorry it's at work and I'm not there right now) The mouse also has a on/off switch. With switch on and usb plugged in, the cursor was good to go. I will say, the cursor with this mouse does sometimes "jump" around annoyingly.. or maybe it's just my mouse lol.

That happened to me recently (on a Mac) for the first time; never had that problem before. The Wacom mouse didn't work either. I couldn't fix the problem in software. Eventually I just unplugged the tablet's cable from my USB hub (without turning off the tablet) and then plugged it right back in again. Fixed the problem immediately.

The Mouse goes to sleep after a couple of minutes of being idle. Touch any button and it up and running instantaneously. I have been using mine for a couple of months and have not yet had to replace the battery.

It's probably going into "sleep mode". Does it come on when you move your mouse around?

There should be a usb plug-in attachment in the mouse itself. Disengage it and inset it into a usb receptacle in the computer. This should take care of your problem.

Hi, the trick to having the Mouse stay connected is to have it unselected in the Device Manager for Bluetooth radio. The default setting will turn the BT mouse off to save Energy. Hope all can see this. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

It only works in El Capitan if you disconnect your USB3 devices before putting it to sleep, otherwise the MacPro will *NOT* go to the sleep properly. If you disconnect everything last thing at night or whatever, the MacPro will sleep too. At time of writing, this hasn't changed past 10.11.3. Officially Inateck only supports the KT4004 card to 10.9 Mavericks, but it works a treat on Yosemite or El Capitan if you disconnect before Sleep as I said.

I only used it as Bluetooth to enhance my iPad volume, unfortunately I do not have an IMAC Bluetooth keyboard mouse.

Yes the mouse goes to sleep so you'll need to click the button. On the other hand I tend to hit the receive slightly and find that I need to wiggle it to make sure it's connected properly or the mouse won't work at all.

i to used the mouse on mac. there is no ay to fix this. this happened because of the os(operating system) it recognizes them as sub clicks so the answer is no

I succeeded by going to System Preferences and Bluetooth on my MacBook Pro. When turned on, it showed that it was detecting a laser mouse. I clicked on connect and now it works!

Yes, there is a USB transceiver that you plug in for the Blue-Tooth to work. The drivers for the mouse will be automatically downloaded to your Mac in order for it to function.

I'd like to help very much but I'm not as computer savvy as you would hope!! However I do know this mouse is a crappy thing, it has a mind of it's own & will work if it wants to & won't!! Try another mouse to see if you get the same problem, the mouse I have also had the lights on but yet nobody was home!! Try another mouse from a friend if you don't have one & the best I can tell you is to buy another mouse that's value is $15. or more 7 it doesn't come from any part of Asia!!! Good luck & sorry you have the same bad luck I did!!!
