Can I use this product to share logitech wireless keyboard/mouse combo between computer &amp; samsung galaxy media dock. Can I use hotkeys to switch?

I use the switch to let two computers share a single printer. I dont think hot key will activate it? It will need to be switched manually.

If you can get it to connect you will be ok but I'm not sure you will be able to get it to connect via Bluetooth they use USB keys but you can just use the two different Bluetooth keys and it will work but you have to use both keys one from the new keyboard and the old one for the mouse.

I've had hit and miss with this. I have a USB wireless set from Logitech as well, but it does not always see them when switching between systems. As Ben put it, I can use it with my Logitech revolution keyboard/mouse combo with no problems on one usb port, but for the headset it doesn't always seem to like it.

Not with a wireless mouse or keyboard. this unit takes a wired kb und mouse and splits the signal between several pc's. this unit works well for me.

Yes, I use a wireless keyboard with my switch. I can't speak to a mouse, but I don't see why not.

yes, you can actually have multiple USB keyboards and mice hooked up to the same computer and use them interchangeably.

I don't think that would work. The mouse and keyboard plug in through USB ports into the KVM device that go back and forth to be used between all the devices connected. Several times I've attempted to use my laptop to control the keyboard and mouse functions on the other system (when I thought my keyboard and/or mouse had died with random power outages) and it never worked. I think you need something connected via USB into those ports.

I don't know about the mouse, but the keyboard is built specifically to work with Android, with appropriate shortcut buttons. It will however work with any Bluetooth device, you just won't have the same shortcuts.

I was able to connect both the keyboard and mouse to a Samsung Tablet. Go into Bluetooth settings it should find it there when the mouse is turned on.

Afraid not. The switching happens on the 2 side. So 4 peripherals across 2 comps (or DVRs in your case). The button just toggles back and forth between the 2 connections. I use it to share mouse/keyboard across 2 comps.

According to Samsung, their keyboard and mouse are matched to the dongle provided and it will not work with a third party KB or mouse. Most wireless KB and mouse equipment will require a dongle. One way to avoid using an extra USB port is to purchase a KB that has an integrated number pad and has a wireless mouse a part of the package. I know that Microsoft and Logitech and others sell this type of KB and mouse. That way you can replace the Samsung dongle, KB and mouse with what you purchase.If you want to eliminate all the USB devices you might look into Bluetooth operation. I know very little about what might be available, how it works or if it will work.

Yes. I currently use the wireless mouse. Be aware that there are only 2 standard USB ports and running both the mouse and keyboard at the same time may use both slots. Probably not an issue, but just pointing it out.

no - you can use the keyboard or mouse independent of the other item - just using the keyboard will work fine.

John, currently using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse with my tf701t I got for father's day. Waiting for a bit till all the dock nonsense settles. Got a dock from ncixus and was old. Returned using a bluetooth from my wife's old iPad case and keyboard. Fine so far.

Not sure about the monitor but if you're using a wireless kybd & mouse (Logitech in my case), then the answer is NO!!! The Unifying USB receiver s only capable of recognizing only one device type, that means 1 keyboard, 1 mouse, 1 touchpad. Apparently it doesn't pass that through the Iogear switch. At least not for me :-(

I use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, and they work okay. If you are using a wireless mouse and keyboard with dedicated or proprietary receivers, are you plugging these receivers into the USB ports on the monitor? That may cause problems.

You dont always have to use both mouse and keyboard plugged in for it to work, so yes... using a keyboard only will work.
