Does this work with Desktop computers? The way my desk is setup makes it a bit restrictive for a wired mouse. So I was wondering if this worked with a desktop?

It should work with your desktop. You need a free USB2 port to plug in the Mouse's RF device. Check the manufacturer for compatibility with your operating system and its latest revision.

Hi Steven, This should work with both desktop and laptop machines. Windows, Ubuntu & Macintosh.

Yes you could use it with a conventional "wired" mouse. I prefer a wireless keyboard and mouse. It does put up an online keyboard so an external is not required.

I had never tried before and it does with my logitech mouse...you just have to be sure to connect to it manually on the sharing port screen. Remember however, you mouse only has a range of a few feet so might defeat the purpose of a wireless hub! I am using windows 8.1...be sure to use updated driver. Ihad problems with the one that shipped.

This product did not work with my Microsoft wireless mouse, so I purchased a Microsoft Comfort wired mouse... didn't work with that either. Does work with an old Logitech wired mouse.

I would say probably it's fairly common for usb mice to work with what ever computer. I'm not 100% but I would say yes it prolly will.

I use it on my laptop. I have not tried it on my desktop but I think it would work as long as you have a usb port. I like it. It works well.

I bought a cheap usb hub and have used wired mouse and keyboard. Not sure if wireless works. I do know blue tooth mouse and keyboard work.

Hey James, I'm gonna go through some basic troubleshooting with you. Make sure your mouse has AA batteries installed and the on/off switch is in the "ON" position. Once that is taken care of plug the usb transmitter into the usb port on your laptop/desktop. Make sure the mouse is not being used in glass. The laptop/desktop should auto detect the new hardware. Please let me know if that helped you. If not I'll give you some more info.

It should work with any computer with USB. You may need to download drivers, but I haven't had any problems with it on different pcs. I think it's supposed to be "Mini". It's am early version of the small laptop mice. I like it much better than the other small mice.

yes as a matter of fact you can with no issues-if your computer is able to see new device that you hook up to your computer then there shouldnt be no problem in useing this mouse as my office uses mac computers to and we use wireless mouses too on our computers and they all work just fine i hope this anwsers your question any other questions feel free to ask anytime ok thanks again and god bless you......

Not good because your mouse would be limited to a very small space of the touch pad and I'm not sure the mouse would even work on that surface. If you want to use an external mouse, you're better off purchasing a lap desk with a plain pull out tray or surface specifically intended for a mouse.

I just downloaded the software but didn't install it.Ordered the touchpad,I will be using it for a desktop which I would hope doesn't make a difference. Already have a Logitech wireless mouse which works well with the desktop,didn't have to install anything for that. Thanks for the info Ata.

I use a mouse with mine. But my laptop sits on a desk, not my lap. If you want to use your laptop in bed, or while you're sitting in your recliner, this isn't going to work. You'll need something bigger.

No, if for instance you're using the 4-Port on a laptop, you can plug in a wired mouse. However, if you are trying to plug in an external dvd drive, then it won't work without the power adapter being plugged in. I don't have a desktop but that's what I found with my Macbook Pro. Hope this helps. Also, be aware that the adapter cord is about 3' long.

I've had hit and miss with this. I have a USB wireless set from Logitech as well, but it does not always see them when switching between systems. As Ben put it, I can use it with my Logitech revolution keyboard/mouse combo with no problems on one usb port, but for the headset it doesn't always seem to like it.

Great question. Ironically today I got back home and didn't have the mousepad out under it yet since I was lazy and it worked on my desk. So it should work unless the surface doesn't allow for it.

I use it at work with my pc. The set up was super simple and it works great. No issues at all and much better than my previous wired mouse.
