Got my house today, tried to set it up in the apple store...no good. I installed the CD that came w/ it, even updated the blue tooth firmware...all I get when trying to set up a new device is the word searching and "MAKE SURE YOUR DEVICE IS SET TO DISCOVERABLE" flashing CONSTANTLY at the bottom, and it can't pair it...meanwhile the Light on the bottom of the mouse just blinks twice ever few seconds...
anyone else have this?

i find it funny how i'm replaying to my own thread..
anyway...new problems. When the mouse is connected and paired under another account, i then switch to my regular day to day user name and it also works there...IF the mouse is turned off though, it seems i need to re-pair it...fine...BUT i can only do this under the OTHER user name...it just hangs when I try to do it w/ my account...
anyone?

I got a wireless mouse and keyboard yesterday along with my 15" AlBook. The mouse worked initially, and then then froze. The LED was on constantly and I couldn't turn it off. Restarting the Mac didn't do anything. I took the batteries out and put them back in, but the mouse wouldn't turn on. Finally, I exchanged it today for a new one.
It's odd that there is no reset function on the mouse, even bluetooth headsets can be reset to factory default.
