i have a G4 iBook (10.3.5) and use the Apple wireless keyboard (firmware 1.1) and have all the latest bluetooth updates.my problem is this.
going on recommendations i bought a bluetake/radtech bt-500 bluetooth mouse.

now, if my apple keyboard is on i keep getting the mouse "connection lost" message popping up all the time. every 5-10 seconds.

i've tried pairing the keyboard fist, then the mouse, and this seems to work for a little while, but if the computer goes to sleep, or if the mouse isn't being used constantly (and therefore i assume *it's* going into powersaving mode) i get the same problems happening again.

if the apple keyboard is off, the mouse works fine, no connection problems...

any suggestions?

thanks,

rick

I think the answer is sync up the keyboard and then the mouse.
