No problems for me with two side by side (except grabbing the wrong one :-D )

We have two - one on my computer and one on my daughter's at the next desk. Mine is plugged in my computer and hers is plugged into her computer. They do not interfere with each other at all. :)

yes. You will be able to have 2 separate external monitors side by side that will act as a large single display spread across the two monitors and your laptop monitor can be positioned to the left or right of these external monitors. If you put your laptop in between the two external monitors your mouse will scroll from the laptop to the first external monitor then over to the next external monitor ... with the laptop in the middle your mouse will move LAPTOP to MONITOR 1 to MONITOR 2 - so it is best to put the external monitors side by side LAPTOP - MONITOR 1 - MONITOR 2

Hi Robyn,We have three individuals that work in the same office and they have had no problems, two individuals work facing each other. I have also had three of us working from my desk for a couple of weeks. Maybe if you have a left mouse user that could put them next to someone's receiver, that might cause a problem. Unless their unifying receivers are next to each other there should be no problem.Lydia

I had the same type situation. I did have another keyboard with usb and have mice of both kinds, so had no problem.

I have used mine on several computers, in both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 connectors.No problems to report.Just so we are on the same page, do you mean interference issues with other wireless devices on the same computer?Or within the same close vicinity like appliances, cordless phone, etc?I have not had any problems at all with mine.

I have three of these mice and had them all in the same room because I was fixing several computers. There wasn't a single problem with them interacting. The only problem I had was the fact that I kept getting them confused because they all look the same :)

We're using 4 in our lab at work. They are ~2-4' apart from each other and have not had any problems. I would suggest that when you do the initial connection that they be isolated from the other setups.Since we have 4 workstations I used a silver Sharpie and wrote 1,2,3,4 on each mouse, keyboard USB dongle so that if someone mixed them up we can get them back to the proper workstation.Also, DON'T LOSE THE USB POD. They cannot be replaced and thus your out $55.Pet Peeve: Why post a response "I'm only using one at home". What's the point?

Hmmmm, I loaned mine to a friend so don't have it with me but...I am pretty sure I stuffed as many batteries as there were obvious slots. If there were anything tricky, I wouldn't have figured it out, believe me. So, if there is only one obvious slot, I guess it requires only one battery. If it works that way, go for it. I have noticed several different, similar-looking sleek wireless mouses (mice?) and it might be that the design has changed or the different manufacturers' products are getting mixed up by whomever is shipping you one. They really are inexpensive and work, no matter which battery configuration it needs. But, again, if the second battery slot isn't obvious, don't worry about it. - jeri

one for a kybd and one for a mouse. the reason you need two is that the device sends a signal to the computer that you are not switched to, so that the non-selected computer believes there are devices connected to it so it will not "lock up" by not being able to detect the kybd and mouse. the previous versions of this device did the same thing before the advent of USB kybd/mouse availability.added: that is why there are depictions of a kybd and mouse on the switches usb inputs. the device has to detect a kybd and mouse at each of the inputs for it to work properly.

Can you clairify your question? 1. Are you asking if it will switch between two VGA inputs while using the same mouse and keyboard input? If so, the answer is no. When you click the button, it changes the VGA input as well as the mouse/keyboard input. 2. Are you asking if it will be switch between two VGA without having to connect a keyboad/mouse? Then yes, if you connect just two VGA inputs, it will switch between them with no issues.

Yes you can run 2 keyboards, mice and other items without it switching those...it will only switch what you hook up.

I have the usb plugged into my computer on one side and use the mouse on the opposite side. I guess I am not sure what you mean. It is all wireless. Hope this helps.

No, each mouse has it's own receiver that inserted into your own USB port so there will be no interference. Hope this helps.

No, i am using a wireless mouse alongside this adapter. Have used it on several different computers without trouble. Only issue you may have is that this adapter is thick and can (and does on my computers) cover up a USB port. So if you only have one or two free this may cause a problem.
