I like the mouse. I noticed the red light started blinking continuously when I use it - anyone know what that means?

J, I don't know your red light started blinking continuously. Mine would only blink once, then nothing.

Does it still function properly? I think it may just mean your battery is low.

I had the same problem in about the same time frame. All I did was uninstall the software, reboot and reinstall, then cleaned the laser window on the mouse with compressed air. Worked for me. Also you may want to check what resolution you're running the mouse at. If you are running really high res, try cutting it back some. Hope this helps!

Sometimes the food is sitting on the strips. Switched to cat food, made sure it was sitting to the rear of the device and it worked without blinking. Also, blinking could also be the device had a "trip" occasion, but mouse could have still gotten free.....so red light usually means something created the electrical interruption and the red light illuminate. Ne patent.

That's weird, my mouse worked right when I plugged it in. Make sure its on (switch on the bottom), plugged in (wireless USB reciever), and the light on your mouse is on. If all of those are working, then I have no idea.

You may need to overclock your mouse. I also recommend a 5th gen Core-i9, and a very good and updated anti-virus to prevent false positives.

Probably it is not working properly, mouse light should be on. Warranty is directly apply with Lenovo support center.

This is probably because the shotty wiring in the mouse and it not fully connecting. You can file a complaint and easily get another one. Unfortunately no matter what you do you won't be getting your money back though.

My mouse pad stopped clicking as well. It worked again when I removed the laptop cover, pulled the battery aside without unplugging it, then gently pushed the underside of trackpad

Hmmmm. Never really noticed. So I went and checked it out. The red led comes on when motion is detected. It blinks only when movement is detected. Otherwise it is out. Hope that solves your question. P'Cola Bob.

The light does stay on to let u know. But it didn't work for me. I still have mine plugged in and I still have a mouse problem. They just wait until night time now to come out and ruin stuff.

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.

It very well could be the mouse but before you get a new one change the mouse pad that the mouse sits on. Sometimes they become rough and wornalthough you can't see it. That would slow it down. I have had other instances where my computer was not working properly at all and as soon as I changed the mouse, PRESTO! everything worked fine. Sometimes they just go haywire or get corrupted in some way. A simple little think that can cause some major distress.

I don't have it in front of me, but I believe there is a tiny switch on the bottom of the mouse which turns it on and off. It's not the best quality mouse, but if it's not working, that might very well be the issue.

I bought a red one and a white one and I threw them in the trash today. It's a piece of trash. I'll never buy another one. You're right the light comes on but the mouse does not respond to command. Can't really complain. You get what you pay for.

We bought two about a year ago. They are still plugged in (just in case a mouse would like to return), the red light is still blinking, and as far as I can tell, they are working fine.

Hi: If the pointer doesn't move it's because the mouse has gone to sleep. If you click the left top button it should become active again. Anyway, that is how mine works. It took me a while to remember that. I would slide the mouse around and the pointer wouldn't move. Then I would remember to click the button and the pointer instantly became active. If what I suggested doesn't work, you will have to call the manufacturer. I haven't

By the way, Leo ...... my red light does "blink" after somone has "passed by". It does NOT just stay on constantly. I wasn't sure if yours was actually "blinking" or just staying on constantly. Ed
