How do you get the battery cover OFF? Am having trouble. Thanks so much! &#x263A;

There's a small dent where there's a slit in the bottom of the mouse, where your thumb (fingernail) fits. Gently squeeze from right to left and pull outward.

I bought this for my mother and she has told me she cannot get the battery cover off. I'm not there to figure it out, so hoping someone can explain the battery compartment configuration? Does it have a tab to press?

Facing towards the opposite side of where the battery goes,there is alittle tab on the cover which ya gently push in alittle bit, in the opposite direction,while gently lifting and sliding the cover towards the end with the little tab.That will expose the battery.Once ya change the battery,reverse the procedure making sure the battery is centered in that plastic cover so it sets back into its' respective position.Do NOT FORCE or you will break it.Take your time and look at it.It's really not that hard to do.I just had to go look at mine,then remove and replace the plastic cover cause I did it awhile ago.So look at it,take your time,and everything should work out alright.Good luck!

Remove the Rubber protector (yellow color), you will find the battery compartment cover at the back, unscrew and replace the battery

The metal base slides off. Just pull the plastic mechanism from the metal sleeve. Then the battery is exposed.

If you look at the picture, you will see a small oval button which is an on/off switch...click on---click off...works great., and I have had no problems with the battery cover falling off.

Squeeze the front red plastic cover on the thin side (eg. The 3 LEDs o horizontally, put your fingers above an below the center LED, not on the left and right.) Then just pull the cover off. It feels like it should have a spot on the back for the batteries but it doesn't. They go in the LED compartment, parallel to the LEDs. Hope this helped!

That has happened to me a few times, though it's usually just one edge and not enough that I can't get the rest of the case off without pulling more of the battery cover with it. It's not ideal, I agree, just a downside of the snug fit. I know the instructions say to remove it starting from the bottom edges, but I've found that if you do it from the top and get one edge off without pulling the battery cover with it, and you put a finger in there and run it across toward the other top edge, it tends to come off without any issues. The top snap-in tabs that hold the battery cover on seem to hold better than the bottom ones do when taking the case on and off in my experience.

I also have trouble getting the battery cover open. It works best if you pull up at the notch on top with you finger nail while pushing up on the cover.

You do remove the original back cover and put the battery cover on. I ordered from one company (the same thing, I thought?) and I couldn't get it on. Returned it. Ordered from another company and it works GREAT! I love the longer use time.

Mine just went dead, so opened up the front plate, and remove the 4 Phillips screws, then disconnect the battery terminal from the push pin.Voila, it's better than pressing the dumb reboot button behind the plate.

if you have really strong fingers, just grab on both sides and pull it out. I use a screwdriver, garden tool anything at hand to GENTLY pry one side of the cover up, then pull out with fingers. I have 10 of these, and this is a lot easier than having to disconnect everything and open screws to get to the battery compartment. It has to be tight to make it waterproof.

You slide the cover off the back. Its really simple. I only use my keyboard occasionally, but the batteries have lasted for over a year now. Plus, the keyboard turns off after not being used for a while, saving battery.

Very easy...turn the device over..there is a round cap with a slot in it..place a coin in the slot..turn it counterclockwise..the cap will pop off.. pry the battery out taking notice which side of the battery is facing up..replace the new battery the same way.. replace the cap. It is a good idea to check the battery in both the sending and receiving units..I own 3 of these.. and 2 of them had weak old batteries rite out of the box.. I really like them.

i did not find it difficult at all....need to remove some screws to remove the cover panels. once the cover panels(side covers} are off simply remove the POS+ and neg - terminals and replace the battery.

It is really hard to open! On one side of the battery cover there is a little tab and you push it over toward the center and you pull the cover back at the same time! You can push the little tab over with a small straight screwdriver if you can't get to it with your finger!

When I first received it I couldn't get it off either. After working at it for awhile and a few unkind words I finally was able to remove it and put the batteries in. Now it is easy to open and close(I just went and tried to make sure) so keep trying or ask for help. I think that it was worth the beginning frustration.
