hi, i recently purchased a bluetooth mouse, the MX900 for my powerbook 12". it is a great mouse by the way, but one problem. i cant remap the buttons! the forward and backward buttons wont work without the drivers, an the drivers are meant for the USB dongle. the reason i bought the mouse was to not have a dongle, which i could have bought a cheaper mouse. someone please help!

Exact same issue with a MS bluetooth mouse. MS software won't recognize bluetooth devices, only their non-bluetooth wireless and other wired mice.

Help!

I have a couple of bottom line questions about Gamepad Companion. I've searched the forums and checked out the developer's website but haven't found a definitive answer.

1. Does Gamepad Companion work with the MS Bluetooth Intellimouse or does it only work with the Logitech MX900?

2. Does Gamepad Companion control scroll-wheel speed and mouse tracking speed, or does it only allow you to assign functions to the buttons?

Thanks!
