It doesn't matter who makes it, all vendors share the same commodity parts supplied by just a couple of different companies. But quite honestly, you would run into this with a $400 netbook or a $5000 Alienware gaming system. If you feel some innate need to assign blame, it should be placed on the FCC who has allowed so many different technologies to share the same band. Regardless of the price, the technology is fundamentally flawed in that it works in the same spectrum as a lot of other devices and is subject to interference. Every once in awhile when I wake the mouse up, it doesn't track exactly the way I'm moving the mouse, but in a few seconds it's fine. The symptoms I'm describing are very infrequent and not what I would characterize as not working very well. I heard that there may be a problem with cross coupling with the airport lines and the bluetooth on the mother board, but no-one from apple seems to want to comment on that other than to say it's "rumours". I forked out a lot of money for these accessories and they don't even work as well as a cheap 30 quid job from tesco!ĭoes anyone else have the same kind of problems? Does anyone have any new suggestions as to what I can do to fix this? I have tried multiple P-RAM resets, repairing permissions, but nothing seems to have had any effect. The technical help lines were no use either.
I've been involved in many threads on the apple forums, which I am no longer a part of, and there a numerous others who experience similar problems, but I have been unable to find a solution to this problem.Īpple donot want to know about it, I took my machine to the a genius bar and was told by one of their technical "experts" who spent 5 minutes looking at my machine that there was nothing whatsoever wrong with it. But I have had this intermittent problem with the them ever since, suddenly the keyboard will disconnect and then the mouse will become slow to repsonse, jerky and often it partially lose functionality such as the buttons will stop working or the scroll wheel.
I've had my Mac for a year and a half now, and my bluetooth keyboard and mouse for almost as long.
