A:
I'm guessing both of mine are defective then, because at 6ft away they both start to stutter across the screen, way to infuriating to work with at any decent distance. I bough a combo mouse and keyboard plus a spare mouse, the mouse from the combo has stopped working completely within a year, now I have to usb plugged in, one for the keyboard and one for the spare mouse I had, they now both have issues working properly, keyboard response is extremely slow and as mentioned the mouse even worse.by

This mouse will give you good, solid response at 15 feet. I just tested it to that distance.So this should suit your purposes just fine.

This mouse can definitely fit your needs. If you don't go with this mouse, just know that any mouse that lists '2.4 GHz' can actually reach up to around 33'. Hope this helps! :)by

I bought this mouse 4 months ago at Best Buy. I just changed the batteries today, I've plugged into different USB ports, and pressed reconnect, but nothing. Please help! Thank you.by

A:
Sometimes with my wireless mouse (more from the cheaper ones I have had in the past) they would bug out on me the pointer would freeze up on me and I would it around a bit and get it to working. Later on I figured out that the wireless transmitter that plugs into the computer was out of range and I was sitting right next to it at my desk. So if this is happening to you I would advise relocating your USB wireless transmitter to closest USB to your mouse. If that does fix your problem I would advise going to bestbuy and buy a wireless mouse with better range or buy a wired mouse. Hope this helped.by

A:
The first thing to do is to try new batteries. Since this started after the battery change, that would possibly fix it. The next step is to restart your computer. If it still does not work, the last troubleshooting step is to try to adjust the setting inside the control panel. If the mouse is still constantly freezing, then the only thing left to do is take it back to the Best Buy store for repair/replacement. If there are any issues at the store, then please call us at 1-800-305-2204 from the store so we can help you out.by

A:
No, this mouse does not require programming. It is plug and play, meaning you simply plug the USB device into your computer and it will automatically install the necessary drivers to recognize the device.8 years, 1 month ago

Answers
A:
I haven't had this problem as of yet. My batteries are a little tight and I used a toothpick to catch the edge of one to pop it out the last time I changed them. I would say if you can't lightly pop them up with a toothpick or get them to come out by lightly tapping the mouse against the palm of your hand then I would bring it back to where you purchased it.9 years, 6 months ago
A:
Try pulling the rope thingy, also try using a bobby pin to pull it out.9 years, 6 months ago
A:
My HP wireless mouse's top cover comes off to replace the batteries. Maybe that's the case with yours.9 years, 6 months ago
A:
Use a knife, screwdriver or something similar to pulled out!9 years, 6 months ago
A:
You can use any device with a thin blade to pop them out. I usually use the edge of a butter knife to pop them out.9 years, 6 months ago

I am having trouble setting up the connection between the mouse and the receiver. How long do I need to hold down the "Connect" button?by

Answers
A:
You shouldn't have to hold it down no more than 1 second. You should only have to do this once during set up and possibly every time you change the battery. If you can't connect the mouse to its receiver instantaneously, update your usb drivers or try another port.by

Just press and release.10 years, 1 month ago
A:
it's normally just a few seconds (2-5). Or if there is an LED, just hold until the LED flashes or blinks. Please make sure your batteries are inserted with the correct polarity.Also, some USB hubs will inhibit the receiver operation. Plug receiver directly into a computer USB port.
Hope this helps.

A:
Mine set up right from the get go. If a Windows 7 machine, it will go to the web to download a driver if needed after you insert the USB connection. I put mine in a non-SS (standard) USB port and it worked great. Not sure about the process in Windows 8, if that is what you have.With the USB connection inserted, the connect button should only be needed to reset it and reconnect it. A few seconds is all that is needed.

I don't know what is going on with my dynex mouse it's red light turns off by itself leaving me using my computer finger pad on my computer I dont know what is wrong with my computer mouse its was new about three weeks ago please help me understand what is happening before I go nuts.by

Answers
A:
The red light is supposed to go off after 10 seconds. If the mouse isn't working, then it is either loosing power or getting disconnected. I would check the batteries and make sure they are firmly connected. You might also try new batteries just to make sure. After that, pull the nano receiver out and reconnect it to your computer and hit the connect button on your mouse.If it still won't work, then return it to the Geeksquad at your local Best Buy for warranty work.

A:
Three possible solutions:1) For a wireless mouse, check the battery.
2) For a corded mouse, check the connection or try attaching it to a different USB port.
3) For a corded mouse which came with your PC, you might need to download the drivers again. Try the company website for alternate solutions.

Q:
I already have a Dynex Wireless Laptop Mouse - Model No DX-NPWLMSE - with the USB wireless connector. At the moment I am taking my mouse with me between my house and studio. I was hoping to purchase an additional mouse - the DX-WLM1401-BK - and leave one mouse at my house and the other mouse at my studio, leaving the one USB wireless connector in my MacBook Pro.Will this work? Is the USB wireless piece compatible with those two different models? If that doesn't work, what if I bought two of this model?
