Ive had a MacPro forever, and a logitech USB wireless mouse M705 even longer

I never had any problem w the mouse on the MacPro ( original ) with the USB receiver on the

back of the MP

some times the 'lenz' on the mouse needed cleaning when it started 'jumping' around

but no big deal.

with the USB receiver on the back of the new iMac from time to time I got the jumping and cleaned the lens

it was difficult to reproduce the problem. I had a brand new logitech identical mouse

" in reserve " and started using that the receiver and the mouse are paired.

the initial mouse was quite old.

to make a long story shorter, I had a Flash of Brilliance and used a 3 " USB extender

so the receiver dangles just under the iMac screen, in direct line to the mouse

no more 'jumping' around so it seems the body of the iMac might interfere w the

reception, in an intermitent way.

hope this might help someone as it was driving me crazy.
MacPro 2.66 dual 3GB RAM 1.5 TB HD's
24" + 21" Samsung flat panels
Miglia mini HD (Great!)
