Back button not working? I've purchased this mouse for use on my new macbook pro. Tried the back button but nothing seemed to have happened. (Cursor works fine, though.) I've taken the battery out and placed it back in then tried it again, nothing's happened. Tried the 'connect' button on the back, same thing. Could someone please tell me if there's a problem with the back button function on my mouse or is it just me? Thanks in advance! Back button not working?

If you use a mac, turn the mouse on, open system preferences/mouse/set up bluetooth mouse.If you don't use a mac I can't help.

Keep at it everyone! I tried pushing the button for 15 seconds, nothing. restarting, nothing. then after several minutes, went back to check to see if there was anything under the bluetooth section on my macbook pro running X 10.10.2 and there was! I paired it and it works great!

I have not had any trouble with the back button in this aspect. I am using it on my raspberry pi. Never been an issue. I have also used the delete button for some actions like this. Other than that I am not sure.

It depends upon how old your mac is, not how old your operating system is. If your mac has bluetooth (which they all have for several years now), then yes, this mouse will work. If your Mac is older and doesn't have bluetooth, then no, it won't work.

For those who are having problems with mice disconnecting with Windows Vista/7/8.x please read the following article.http://sherylcanter.com/wordpress/2010/01/bluetooth-mouse-losing-connection-no-more/Sorry, but I don't know a solution to the Mac disconnect problem (though I've seen multiple posts of people with this issue).

I have had no luck getting the Logitech software to work with Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10). The mouse mostly works - but the buttons cannot be programmed, gone back to using a Microsoft Mouse 5000 on my iMac.

Yes it works great. Just pair the mouse with the laptop by making sure bluetooth is turned on and then hitting the connect button on the bottom of the mouse. On the mac you can click the 'pair' button from the System Preferences &gt; mouse &gt; setup bluetooth mouse. The two buttons on the top of the mouse work fine and the scroll wheel is a button as well. The side buttons also work too.

Every once in a while the mouse will "wander" or "drift". It's correctable by unplugging it then re-plugging it in to the USB port. I've not noticed any problems specifically with the scroll wheel. I've also never mapped any of the other buttons, so I can't say how well they work.

I ordered this for Mac OS 10.4.8 before reading these messages. Is anyone using it on a Mac? Does it use a Logitech or third-party driver as mentioned above?

Any mouse will do but using a 3 button Windows version gives you right clicking without having to use keyboard controls, something the Apple two buttons still have problems with sometimes. Of note, I've found the Apple mouse to be something of a disappointment. Not only does it eat batteries for breakfast I've never seen where it does much more than other mice costing 75% less.

Works just fine with my MacBook Pro and Mavericks. The only thing that got me for a while is that moving the mouse does not wake it from sleep. But hitting any button (including the clear button at top next to the scroll wheel) does wake it and reconnects (quickly). The button click gets registered at the OS though.

Those buttons don't work on my Mac. Instead, I use the scroll wheel which works well

I had the same problem. It seems to work for me if I turn the power off in-between each use--meaning when I'm done working I turn it off and then turn it back on when I'm ready to use again. I've found that I need to do this if I have not used the keyboard for longer than an hour. Additionally, I always need to do this if I move my laptop to another room and then bring it back to my desk. This is an unfortunate problem because I really like the keyboard, except for this problem. BTW, I purchased the Bluetooth Sculpt Mouse at the same time, and I've never been able to get it to connect properly for longer than a few minutes.

I have tested this on two iMac's one with OSX 10.5 and 10.9 and can confirm that the thumb buttons for forward and back do not work. I even downloaded the Logitech Control Center software from the Logitech site and the software does not recognize the mouse on either computer . This is sad to report because I love Logitech mice and Apple computers. I use mine on a Windows box for work. The mouse you are looking for is it's predecessor if you can find it: Logitech MX400 (M-BZ105A) Laser Mouse which works on Apple computers and the thumb buttons for back and forward on websites are better than the M318E. I replaced it cause the wheel was getting noisy but and it was a little larger mouse than I'm use to but I was wrong in thinking the M318e was a better replacement.

Yes, this mouse does work with a MAC. We have a link that we send you to modify the buttons of the mouse, when you own a mac. Just let us know when you order, and we will send it to you. It's very easy. Thanks for the question!

It does work on a Mac, but you cannot program it (i.e. change the colors etc). All the buttons work when booted into the Mac in their default states (thumb buttons are the number keys, right/left/center/scroll). You can change the main mouse buttons using the Mac Mouse Preferences. The colored light remains the last color it was set to on Windows. I use it on my Mac all the time.
