Can this keyboard be used with a computer via USB cable only, as a traditional wired keyboard? Or is the wireless adapter strictly required?

It is wireless, and it comes with a wireless receiver (dongle). You can use it on your computer directly and no more wireless adapter is needed. Eastore Service

no, it can't. Rii K12 is a 2.4Ghz wireless keyboard. It is only connected with a computer via the usb wireless receiver. Form cozyswan

I get your point. It is wireless ONLY, not both. The USB cord is used for battery charging, but not as a wired keyboard. Eastore Service

This keyboard will only work with the wireless mouse it came from. It's not a good keyboard btw. I wouldn't recommend it.

This is a wireless keyboard: the cable is for charging the battery and can be left attached, as I do mine absent a reason otherwise. Be sure to note the USB unifying extender cable provided, which I have found useful due to some loss of connection problems with my wireless mouse (purchased separately) when the sender is used on a USB port in the computer or dock, even at not too large a distance. However, I haven't noticed loss of keyboard connection when not using the extender, but this may have or have not also coincided with mouse connection problem.

I use mine for a laptop.It is smaller than most atandard keyboards. I am assuming that since it is USB, that it will work with a compatible port. However for my tablet, I use a tablet size keyboard. It is not wireless.If you have Bluetooth capabilities, I would look for a Bluetooth combo mouse & keyboard. They are usually smaller & more portable. The Enermax Briskie is great choice otherwise.

a USB hub and a corded USB mouse and keyboard would work just fine using this cable as an extension jut you might be better off buying a basic wireless rf/bluetooth mouse key board set for not much more $. you will get Nealy the same range and not be tethered dow by wires.

Yeah its just a type 7 not a windows 7 keyboard. All you need is a free USB port.

Will work with any computer that has a USB port. This is not a wireless keyboard.

I believe you can. I use a wireless Microsoft mouse with mine. There are three USB connections. I can't imagine there would be any reason why you wouldn't be able to add a keyboard, but I have not done so.

The instruction manual says nothing about connecting via USB, only wirelessly. BTW,if you plan to use this KB on your lap, be advised it doesn't latch open; sit it on your lap, and it tends to fold back up. I can't recommend it.

Hi there,this keyboard has no wire or cable on it. it comes with a USB antenna connector that you plug into an USB port. the device driver will self-install as soon as you plug it in.hope this helps.

It works exactly like a usb keyboard - so yes it has to be connected to the computer. You also need a monitor of course!

This keyboard is not wireless. I don't use wireless keyboards or mice for gaming so I can't respond to the second question.

This is a 'wireless' keyboard. It does not connect through a USB wire. It connects wirelessly to a Logitech Unifying Receiver that plugs into your PC. You need to purchase the Logitech Unifying Receiver if you don't have one. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Unifying-receiver-mouse-keyboard/dp/B0058OU8VY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1388104991&sr=1-1&keywords=logitech+unifying+receiver+for+K360

There should be no issues with using this on almost any device that takes a USB plug. That said I have not used this particular keyboard with that particular operating system

It is wired like a regular keyboard. It should work the same as when you plug it into a desktop. Just keep in mind that it is missing some of the keys you would expect in a traditional keyboard, which has its ups and downs (so having a laptop keyboard as a backup might be a nice option).

The keyboard has no USB inputs. It only has a USB output cord that can plug into your computer.
