Cant Turn Off My Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse

It works much better than the previous Microsoft 5000 mouse that frequently lost the bluetooth connection. The only concern is the cost.....too high.

My wife had me replace a Microsoft wireless mouse with this one. She liked the way it feels in hand. It's very responsive and super easy to set up. Just plug it in, pull the protective battery cover and windows will do the rest.

I have a 2019 Mac Mini that always had weak bluetooth reception for my mouse & keyboard. I bought is as "refurbished" and this is probably why someone returned it in the first place. Anyway, to get to the point, I ordered 4 solutions from Amazon and this Mini USB adaptor was the only device that fixed my problem. I'm using that same keyboard & mouse to type this review. Even though there wer no instructions on the device, I did plug it in, turn off the Bluetooth reception in the Mac Settings, used a wired mouse to turn Bluetooth back on again and it has worked perfectly for the past 3 weeks. My frustration has ended!!! Thanks StarTech!

great price and works great, better than Microsoft mouse

This is a great, easy to use mouse. I've used various Microsoft Mouse types through the years and this is the same, good, high quality.

Good Bluetooth mouse for use with laptop.

In spite of its shortcomings, the Magic Mouse is still the best Bluetooth mouse for the Mac.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve gotten used to not using a mouse with my Mac, but my husband and I are planning to buy his dad a laptop for Christmas and he is used to using a mouse, so it was great to have one sent to us. My experience with this wireless gaming mouse was a good one. It was fairly easily to setup: I removed the cover, inserted the included battery, replaced the cover, pushed the button on the bottom to turn on Bluetooth and switched the on/ off switch to on. I went on to my Mac’s Bluetooth settings and immediately found the mouse connected wirh an icon in the shape of a computer mouse, which made it easy to identify. From there, I began to move the mouse and scroll, both of which were smooth and easy. I also like that this mouse has the option to connect via WiFi and/or usb. The instructions were very easy to follow and showed steps with pictures that made it even easier. It also indicated that a wireless charging pad can be purchased to go with this mouse, which I think is a nice touch because if I were to use this long term, I wouldn’t want to have to remember to buy batteries for it. The only thing I didn’t like about this mouse is that the up and down scroll wheel is inverted, but I assume that can be changed in settings. I’ve decided my father-in-law would probably enjoy a mouse similar to this one. My husband said he liked it himself as well, but would prefer a wired mouse.

If you’re in the market for a Bluetooth turn table, you should consider giving this a try.

Awesome peace of equipment ..I run that along side my Microsoft mouse and it's flawless:)
