The ethernet port on this adapter has a moveable part. One has to expand the moveable part to insert the ethernet cable. My ethernet cable did not stay connected very well. Furthermore, this adapter was the fourth Thunderbolt 3 device in my Mac mini which has four Thunderbolt 3 ports. When this device was plugged into the Mac mini, I kept getting notifications that more power was needed to support the device, and yet, I had not even plugged anything into the adapter, and furthermore, the other devices in the other Thunderbolt 3 connections became unusable when this adapter was plugged in. Removing this adapter allowed all my other devices to work again.

I purchased this Oct. 16, 2019. It is now Oct 11, 2020 and the drive will not boot. It never worked properly to begin with. I constantly had to restart my computer just so that this disk would be readable. It had to be reformatted at least twice. I was using it with macOS.

This mouse is so easy to use. I use it with my iMac, and have another one that I use with my MacBook Pro. Just plug the little "dongle" into the USB port, turn on the switch on the bottom of the mouse, and go. It has a scrolling wheel and a left click and a right click. It is symmetrical, so you can use it with left or right hand.

This was very easy to set up. The reason I say beware the setup is that when you set it up you have to get an activation code and use a web browser. I was using my smart phone and my browser had suggested a page that was like Roku, but what turned out to be an illegitimate "Roku agent" who only wanted to get my activation code. Thank goodness my son noticed I was on the wrong webpage. Once I made it to the authentic webpage, the setup was very easy. And having the Roku is great! You can stream all different channels, including the Disney+.

I only used it 2-3 times a week, and after 8 weeks the button that you press to turn on the sanitizer just broke. It was no longer returnable after the sixth week. Very disappointing.

Nest Protect reliably detects and alerts you to the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide in your home. The alarm speaks to you in a calm, clear, human voice, telling you the location of the danger. It also provides smartphone alerts and battery status updates to help protect your home. This hardwired version is suitable for homes with existing hardwired smoke or CO detectors.

After ten years it is time to replace my Nest protect. The Google Nest Protect 2nd generation Smart Smoke/Carbon Monoxide wired Alarm will not work with the wiring that was in place for the previous Nest Protect. So, if you have the old wiring and want the new Google product you will need to plan accordingly. I called Best Buy in advance about this exact question and was told it was the same wiring. I do not know how to do this kind of wiring at home so I am going to have to return the product. Therefore my review is simply to inform consumers of this issue. I cannot evaluate the rest of the product since I cannot use it.

I purchased a new hp envy laptop at Best Buy. I was also sold a Logitech M325 wireless mouse. How do I connect the mouse? There was nothing else in my package.

When you take the mouse out of the package you need to open up its battery compartment. The dongle is plugged inside the battery compartment. Remove the dongle and plug it into the USB port of your device. Remove the tape that is sticking out of the mouse and close the battery compartment. There is an on/off switch on the bottom of the mouse. Turn it on, and it should be ready to go.
