Enable Bluetooth On Mac Without Mouse

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

Replaced mouse on Intel Zeon Mac Pro. Added KINIV Bluetooth dongle. Works great! Easy to get touch top used to. Fits hand comfortably. No track ball to get gummed up.

Both the keyboard and mouse are easy to set up via Bluetooth and the Logi Bolt Receiver. I love how I could customize the keyboard with the Logi Options + Desktop App. It's also easy to have them switch and work with both my personal Mac and work computer (Mac.) the mouse is also very comfy and I don't even need a mousepad for it to work well which is convenient

I had read some reviews that say this mouse does not work by bluetooth with the Mac Pro laptop. I decided to take a chance anyways and order. It works great by bluetooth. I have to say that I am very happy with my purchase.

[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.

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!

Good Bluetooth mouse for use with laptop.

We've only had one fail in several years. Make certain to enable the trim if using on a Mac.

Great Webcam. Fantastic autofocus and clarity. the performance is exceptional. The only thing that would make it better, if it was Bluetooth enable.

Ive only had the camera for about two weeks and havent had much chance to play with it, but the little that I have - and reading the manual, it is very impressive.  I loved the SX700 that I had before until the screen broke.  This is even better. (Wish it used the same batteries as the old one though, because I have seven of the old batteries and two chargers).  The layout of the controls is better than on the SX700, the zoom is longer.  It is a little thicker than the old camera, but still fits in a pocket.   The Bluetooth function is a disappointment.  The Camera Connect software didnt recognize the camera as easily as it should have.  Once I did get it working I found that it has limited functionality.  It can zoom and take pictures, but if you want to add GPS coordinates to your pictures or any other functions it switches to wifi.  The manual warns you that having Bluetooth enable set to enable on the camera will use battery power even when the camera is off.   The case that was included is too tight for this camera.  You have to squeeze it to get it closed.  Im using the case that I have from a previous camera - although I dont usually use a case at all, just for travel when it is in a backpack.    Very pleased with the camera.
