I just got a logitech cordless optical freedom mouse and keyboard. The keyboard works great and everything, but the mouse is alittle weird. Mainly just moving the cursor around, it gets really jerky alot and stutters when i move it slowly, I have the latest drivers for it, but is there anything else that could make it work like on my windows machine? I was really looking forward to using a wireless mouse on my mac.

Thanks in advance.

What kind of surface are you using the mouse on? Optical mice don't work well on wood and some other surfaces.

Well it's on wood, but I also have another logitech optical on it attached to my laptop and it works perfectly. I just moved the receiver piece and its starting to get better tracking, but it might start acting up again...
Thanks for the info though ^_^

I use my Logitech Cordless Mouseman on a wooden table, and it works good.
Glass is another story: doesn't work.

Thanks for the help
The batteries might be old...I'm not using the ones included with the set, which might be the problem.
