Will this work with both an IBM model M and an old IBM mouse connected at the same time?

Yes, I was able to do this with my Lenovo laptop. There are some minor odd issues which you may experience when you jury rig a model M like that. I have a couple of odd ones where the computer will crash if you use the M on the start windows normally screen if it had an unexpected shutdown for example. I also had some issues getting the keyboard to work on some newer machines.

I'm not familiar with the IBM Model M keyboard and old IBM mouse so I can't say for sure, but since they are both PS/2 devices I expect they should work when both are connected to the Adesso, which I assume will then plugged into a USB port on a newer computer. I have a Dell PS/2 keyboard and a PS/2 Dell mouse which are connected to the Adesso. The USB connector of the Adesso is plugged into a USB port on a Dell USB Windows 7 computer. The PS/2 keyboard and mouse work just fine with the Alesso connector and the USB computer.

yep, works fine with my optical mouse. Also, I've got two screens running so the extra space is nice to have.

Obviously you cannot use a Human Interface Device on two computers simultaneously! The mouse performs great with my two laptops. I just hit the connect button on the bottom to switch back and forth between the laptops

Absolutely. I was able to pair it easily with my old MacBook (white edition). The scroll wheel (up and down) and the left and right buttons work fine. If you want to use the scroll wheel button or the back button on the left side of the mouse, you may need to install some mouse software (I didn't bother).

I seriously doubt it. Most computers will support both a USB mouse and Keyboard. and if the Bluetooth adapter for the mouse is built in, I would expect there to be absolutely no conflict. That said, I haven't tried it and with all the different motherboards out there, it might not be proof positive for your situation even if I had.

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 should. I have it running an IBM M13 on a Win 7 machine and it was plug and play, with the keyboard's trackpoint and everything working as intended. For giggles, I plugged the same setup into my Galaxy S3 with a USB to Micro USB adapter and it worked the same. If I had a ball mouse around here I'd try it out on my Win 8 laptop just to check, but I don't know of any reason that your ball mouse wouldn't work under Win 8 with this adapter. I hope this helps.

Yes. I have my KB wireless, but my mouse is a MX518 that is plugged into the mouse port..........z

I think the answer is YES. As for the Microsoft brand that i use, you will definitely need a separate USB transceivers for the keyboad and mouse. But I know if a Logitech brand (i don't have the model name off my head now, but a friend of mine bought it from Amazon last year) that uses a single universal Bluetooth usb transceiver for both keaboard and mouse.

I am using a multifunction gaming mouse myself, and yes you can as long as all connected computers have the software installed and you will want to be sure that all the computers have the same profiles setup so you won't have any confusion.

Yes. Additionally, I found an old Logitech mouse & paired it with the keyboard using the keyboard's dongle. The "combo" keyboard & mouse work together with one dongle on MacBook, MacBook Air & PC. The dongle is inserted in a bell in powered hub.

Yes, according to this page on Logitech's site:http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/presentation_remote/devices/175&cl;=us,en

Sorry, I do not know that. My experience with this mouse is only while using XP, but I would think that after downloading proper driver -- it should work fine.

I only used my KVM with my MX518, and that worked fine. I can't say I ever used a KVM with my G500 though(left click switch went bad in under 1 year btw, I just bought the G700). I suspect the KVM switch would not effect the standard functionality. Any lack of operation would probably be more specific to the KVM's quality or compatibility with the mouse due to voltage or signal loss through the KVM.

Yep it will work -you just have to plug the mouse and keyboard into the usb inputs instead of the mouse and keyboard inputs

Yes. Just tried it with my optical mouse. Windows installed the driver and recognized it within a minute.

Yes! I have an older USB presentation mouse, and although I got an "unsupported" message when I plugged it in, it works. Advances my PowerPoint slides right on cue.
