FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Scrolling issues with Windows 8.1 Consumer Preview version****

Initial testing with Windows 8.1 Consumer Preview version reveals a scrolling issue with IE11 and Windows 8 apps, as well as on the Windows Start screen itself:
– Moderate to fast scrolling can become unresponsive until you stop scrolling. Then, the page will jump a long distance, usually to either the beginning or the end.
We’re working with Microsoft to resolve this issue.

As a workaround, you can modify your scrolling settings in IE11. Here’s how:
1. Launch IE11.
2. Open Internet Options and select the  Advanced  tab.
3. In the  Browsing  section, clear “Use smooth scrolling”.

4. In the  Security  section, clear “Enable Enhanced Protected Mode”, and then click  OK.
IMPORTANT:   Disabling Enhanced Protected Mode  degrades the security settings in IE11. Please consider this before you make this change.
5. Restart your computer.

Wireless product not working properly when also using a USB 3.0 device****

When using a USB 2.0 2.4GHz wireless peripheral device (such as a mouse, keyboard, or headphones) with a PC that also has a USB 3.0 peripheral device plugged in, you may experience erratic operation caused by interference. This is especially likely to happen when using USB 3.0 remote hard drives or flash drives.

This interference may result in:
– Delayed response to mouse or keyboard inputs
– Missing keyboard characters or mouse commands
– Decreased operating distance between the USB 2.0 wireless device and its receiver

There are some techniques that can help early adopters of USB 3.0 to mitigate potential problems with their existing 2.4GHz wireless devices:

– If your PC has multiple USB 2.0 connectors available, separate your USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 receivers by as much distance as possible. For example, if your PC has a choice of USB 2.0 connectors, use the one on the opposite side of the PC from the USB 3.0 connector.
– Position your USB 2.0 receiver as close as possible to your wireless peripheral (mouse, keyboard, headphones, etc.).
– Use a standard, USB-extender cable to position your USB 2.0 wireless receiver as far away as possible from your USB 3.0 connector.

A USB-extender cable is available for Logitech customers who are experiencing this problem (click here for more information).

NOTE:  A USB 3.0 connector sometimes referred to as Super Speed USB or SS, normally has a blue plastic insert in the connector. Unlike a USB 2.0 connector which has 4 pins within the connector, a USB 3.0 connector has 9 pins.

Move your USB 2.0 wireless receiver to the opposite side of your computer:

Make sure your USB 2.0 wireless receiver is in the USB 2.0 connector closest to your wireless peripheral:

Use a USB extended cable to position your wireless receiver as far away from your USB 3.0 peripheral as possible:

– Windows 7
– Windows XP
– Windows Vista
– Macintosh OS X 10.5 or above

M187 battery life and replacement****

Battery information for your mouse
– Requires 1 AAA alkaline battery
– Expected battery life is up to 6 months

Checking battery status
You can check your mouse battery status using the Logitech SetPoint mouse and keyboard software. See answer 360023408793 for instructions.

Installing a new battery
When you install a new battery in your mouse, make sure it faces the correct direction, as shown below:

Extending battery life
Your mouse enters standby mode to conserve power when it is not in use. Here are some other ways you can help extend the battery life:
– Use only alkaline batteries. Non-alkaline batteries (such as NiMH,or NiCd) operate at a lower voltage and may affect the battery life.
– Avoid using your mouse on dark or transparent surfaces, such as glass. These surfaces cause the optical sensor to use more power.
– Make sure replacement batteries are new and within the manufacturer’s expiration date.

Operating distance between the mouse or keyboard and nano receiver****

In an ideal environment, your mouse or keyboard can operate up to 30 feet (10 meters) away from the nano receiver (shown below) in a clear line of sight.

If you’re not getting this distance, try these suggestions:
– Replace the batteries or make sure your mouse or keyboard is fully charged.
– Move devices that emit radio waves or could cause radio interference away from your work area.
(Examples: cell phones, radios, wireless routers, microwaves)

To determine if your environment is shortening your operating range, try using your device in a different environment to see if the distance improves. If it does, look for other possible sources of interference you can remove from your work area.

Using the M187 mouse with a different USB receiver****

Your M187 mouse ships with the receiver shown below:

While this receiver isn’t Unifying, you can connect your mouse with any USB receiver that displays this logo:

NOTE:  Although a device may be supported by the Unifying receiver, SetPoint and/or Logitech Control Center (LCC) software support depends on the specific product.

Cursor does not follow mouse movements****

If the cursor isn’t following the movements of your mouse, we suggest you:
1. Use a mouse pad.
2. Avoid using your mouse on:
– Glass and other see-through surfaces
– Reflective surfaces, such as mirrors and metal desks
– Wood grains and grooved surfaces
3. Try the mouse on a piece of white paper to make sure it isn’t a tracking issue on the particular surface you’re using.

Mouse doesn’t display in LCC and can’t be programmed for Mac****

This mouse model isn’t supported by the Logitech Control Center (LCC) for Macintosh, but might still work as a basic mouse on a Mac.
If a device is programmable, the LCC for Mac will display the image for that device. Because this mouse isn’t supported, the image won’t display in the LCC and you won’t be able to program it there.

If a device is not supported in the LCC, there won’t be an image for it.

My Unifying mouse or keyboard wakes the computer even when it is set not to****

Symptom
After disabling the ability to wake-up the system in Windows Device Manager, the Unifying mouse or keyboard still brings the system out of sleep mode.

Solution
Even if you bought a mouse-only or keyboard-only product, the Unifying receiver that came with it still enumerates for both the mouse and keyboard interfaces.

Example
If you have two mice attached, then you would need to uncheck the “Allow this device to wake the computer” option for both mice plus a keyboard in the Windows Device Manager.
Use the process below to identify and configure the Unifying devices to not wake up the system in Windows Device Manager.

Changing wake-up settings in the Device Manager
To change the wake-up settings in Windows Device Manager, you’ll need to launch it through Computer Management and then make your selections. Here’s how:
1. Click Start, right-click  Computer , and then click  Manage.
2. Click Device Manager in the navigation pane on the left.

3. Select and expand either the “Keyboards” or “Mice and other pointing devices” category.
4. Right-click on the first entry and go to Properties > Details tab > Hardware IDs under the Property section.
5. Make sure the Value section contains:  HID\VID_046D &PID_C52B. If it doesn’t, click  Cancel  and open the next mouse or keyboard entry in the list.

6. Select  the “Power Management” tab and uncheck the “Allow this device to wake the computer” check box.

7. Repeat the same steps for all entries in both the “Keyboards” and “Mice and other pointing devices” categories.

Mouse double-clicks when clicked once****

– My mouse has been double-clicking from the first day of usage
– My mouse has been working fine until recently and now it’s double-clicking
If your mouse double-clicked from the first day of usage, check the Windows setting called  Single-click to open an item. This option makes a single mouse click act as a double click. Disable this setting to return the mouse to the standard one click option.

To disable, first select your operating system:

2. Click Folder and Search Options in the file menu under Organize.

3. Under the General tab, make sure that the option ‘Double-click to open an item’ is selected.

4. Click on OK to save the settings.
5. If the ‘Single-click to open an item’ option was not selected, try resetting the mouse by switching it off and on.

Disabling the Single-Click to open option in Windows XP****

1. Open My Computer.

2. Click Folder Options in the file menu under Tools.

3. Under the General tab, make sure that the option ‘Double-click to open an item’ is selected.

4. Click on OK to save the settings.

Additional help
If the steps above do not help, or if your mouse has only recently begun to double-click, please contact Logitech Customer Care.

Backup device settings to the cloud in Logitech Options+****

INTRODUCTION
This feature on Logi Options+ allows you to backup the customization of your Options+ supported device automatically to the cloud after creating an account. If you are planning to use your device on a new computer or wish to go back to your old settings on the same computer, log into your Options+ account on that computer and fetch the settings you want from a backup to set up your device and get going.

HOW IT WORKS
When you are logged into Logi Options+ with a verified account, your device settings are automatically backed up to the cloud by default. You can manage the settings and the backups from the Backups tab under More settings of your device (as shown):

Manage settings and backups by clicking on  More  >  Backups:

AUTOMATIC BACKUP OF SETTINGS  — if the  Automatically create backups of settings for all devices  checkbox is enabled, any settings you have or modify for all of your devices on that computer are backed up to the cloud automatically. The checkbox is enabled by default. You can disable it if you don’t want the settings of your devices to be backed up automatically.

CREATE A BACKUP NOW  — this button allows you to backup your current device settings now, if you need to fetch them later.

RESTORE SETTINGS FROM BACKUP  — this button lets you view and restore all the available backups you have for that device that are compatible with that computer, as shown above.
The settings for a device are backed up for every computer that you have your device connected to and have Logi Options+ that you are logged into. Every time you make some modifications to your device settings, they get backed up with that computer name. The backups can be differentiated based on the following:
– Name of the computer. (Ex. John’s Work Laptop)
– Make and/or model of the computer. (Ex. Dell Inc., Macbook Pro (13-inch) and so on)
– The time when the backup was made
– The desired settings can then be selected and restored accordingly.

WHAT SETTINGS GET BACKED UP
– Configuration of all the buttons of your mouse
– Configuration of all the keys of your keyboard
– Point & Scroll settings of your mouse
– Any application-specific settings of your device

WHAT SETTINGS ARE NOT BACKED UP
– Flow settings
– Options+ app settings

System Extension Blocked message when installing Logitech Options or LCC****

Starting with macOS High Sierra (10.13), Apple has a new policy that requires user approval for all KEXT (driver) loading. You may see a “System Extension Blocked” prompt (shown below) during the installation of Logitech Options or Logitech Control Center (LCC).

If you see this message, you’ll need to approve the loading of the KEXT manually so that your device drivers can be loaded and you can continue to use its functionality with our software. To allow KEXT loading, please open System Preferences  and navigate to the  Security & Privacy section. On the  General  tab, you should see a message and an  Allow  button, as shown below. In order to load the drivers, click  Allow. You may need to reboot your system so the drivers are properly loaded and the functionality of your mouse is restored.

NOTE: As set by the system, the  Allow  button is only available for 30 minutes. If it has been longer than that since you installed LCC or Logitech Options, please restart your system to see the  Allow  button under the Security & Privacy section of System Preferences.

NOTE: If you don’t allow KEXT loading, all devices supported by LCC will not be detected by software. For Logitech Options, you need to perform this operation if you’re using following devices:
– T651 Rechargeable trackpad
– Solar Keyboard K760
– K811 Bluetooth keyboard
– T630/T631 Touch mouse
– Bluetooth Mouse M557/M558

Logitech Options issues when Secure Input is enabled****

Ideally, Secure Input should only be enabled while the cursor is active in a sensitive information field, such as when you enter a password, and should be disabled right after you leave the password field. However, some applications may leave the Secure Input state enabled. In that case, you may experience the following issues with devices supported by Logitech Options:
– When the device is paired in Bluetooth mode, it’s either not detected by Logitech Options or none of the software-assigned features work (basic device functionality will continue to work, however).
– When the device is paired in Unifying mode, it’s not possible to perform keystroke assignments.

If you encounter these issues, check to see if Secure Input is enabled on your system. Do following:
1. Launch Terminal from /Applications/Utilities folder.
2. Type the following command in Terminal and press  Enter :ioreg -l -d 1 -w 0 | grep SecureInput

If the command returns back no information, then Secure Input is not enabled on the system.
If the command returns back some information, then look for “kCGSSessionSecureInputPID”=xxxx.  The number xxxx points to the Process ID (PID) of the application that has Secure Input enabled:
– Launch Activity Monitor from /Applications/Utilities folder.
– Search for PID which has secure input enabled.
– Once you know which application has Secure Input enabled, close that application to resolve the issues with Logitech Options.
