I cannot get the trackball to work. I've cleaned it but not working. It happened before & I was able to restart computer & it work, but not now. ?????

This happened to me. There is a small reset hole on the mouse. Put the end of a paperclip in it and hold for about 20-30 sec to do a reset. It should fix the problem

Mine stopped working cuz the light on the roller ball wasn't working. I could click and right click so the mouse was being recognized but I couldn't use the ball to move the cursor. Unfortunately I gave up. They're just low quality imports. I had one Fellowes manufactured for 10 years but can't find "non-generic" anymore. Good luck, mine lasted about 2 months.

Check your control panel to see if it's still recognized. I've noticed that it always needs to be reawakened by pressing the trigger before anything else will work, but I'm sure you've tried that. The best way to know if it's alive is by seeing if it will work with any other computers. Of course, it also has a rechargeable battery.

Have you gone to settings and select mouse to make sure it is connected? Make sure it is on? Change the batteries? If so, then you probably have a defective mouse and should return it. Sorry, I can't think of anything else.

I use it with Windows 7. I haven't had to worry about cleaning it so I wouldn't know as of yet. The first keyboard with a trackball I had was an Iogear GKM561R. This keyboard has everything right in my mind but the trackball worked like crap. I just recently took it apart and cleaned it. 6 or 8 screws or so and it was apart. It does work much better now. What was odd is it didn't seem very dirty persay. In any case this Periboard trackball works ok. Its a little odd because when you use it sometimes the mouse pointer will make big jumps which can get annoying if it does it a lot. The overall keyboard is smaller then normal so the keys are smaller and more awkward. It seems it's made to sit on a table to use. I'm using it for an HTPC so the IOgear keyboard was much more ergonomically friendly for that purpose. All in all good trackball keyboards are hard to find and these two definitely aren't without there flaws. I hope this helped.

Trackpoint won't work for scrolling. I just connected it to MBP and while typing and moving mouse around works - scrolling doesn't and it doesn't look like there is an easy way to configure it.

No all trackball marble mouses work just fine with the Mac. I have two and I have the one in this picture. I love them, once you get use to them they are so much more easier to move. Enjoy

I have a similar Logitech trackball (# 810-000767) and it works just fine on my Win 8.1 laptop. Also, Microsoft released a patch a few weeks ago that suppose to make a regular mouse and keyboard work better on Win 8. My Logitech worked just fine before and after the patch.

Try contacting Corsair customer support if your warranty is still valid, and try another mouse and see if you have similar problems. I don't believe it's a design flaw with the mouse itself, it's either a defective unit or something is wrong with the settings on your computer, or the computer/internet is just lagging.

I would recommend you getting a replacement. These are excellent mice! However, when asking for the replacement be specific about where you think the problem is. Is it the cable from the mouse or the connecter to the computer, which end seems to be the problem? Just my opinion. The more they know the easier it to maintain a quality product.

The same thing happened to me. I think the computer shorted out. I ended up returning the item. Make sure you put the batteries in correctly and then turn it on and off two or three times. That worked for me but it crapped out about three days later.

I was replacing a track ball mouse so needed no "unifying device" . My initial track ball mouse was simple plug and play though so maybe you have another problem that is not related to the mouse. Just a thought. I hope that helps.

i use the arrow keys mostly. Trackball you would probably need to use arrow buttons in on the screen.

That is strange. I have actually had no problems with mine at all. In fact, I really like it. Do you think you have the speed set on your mouse pointer too high or maybe the button to roll the screen in the middle is somehow stuck? Looks like you could get it replaced at least.

The mouse trackpad failed on two of these that we had. See if you can return it.

I have the same problem. It only worked for about 2 weeks and gives me trouble. I have tried all of the steps and they don't seem to work. I may try a replacement, and if that doesn't work will go back to Logitech which always works and has a bigger keyboard.

Mine works just fine. When my computer gets slow or freezes, I use Ctrl-Alt-Del to access task manager. Hold all 3 keys down just like a keyboard. If yours doesn't work, maybe one of your keys is bad. (I'm on Win 7 too). I think the confusion here is that the seller has changed the product, the original product has a full keyboard, the product it was replaced with didn't. Now I see the original Air Fly Mouse is back. These questions and answers are a mix of both products and therefore are of no help to anyone.

You need to download the firmware then run it. You might have to resync your mouse with the base afterward.
