It's not Bluetooth. The mouse and keybaord are paired to the receiver but what's interesting is that they didn't add the "connect" button on the bottoms of the devices...
Good point. Quite a limited design. I found the keyboard at a thrift store for $1.50 - it felt really nice, but seems to have no way to connect it to a mac. The wireless keyboard that came with my iMac has been able to connect with any PC, Mac or tablet with no problems.
I also got one of these keyboards at a Thrift store. Nice touch and weight, but not mouse or dongle. From what I’m reading this keyboard (600 series I think) will be useless w/o the dongle that is paired at the factory. Am calling HP tomorrow to confirm.
Hi Leslie, This worked for me, ...there is an outer rubber wheel that goes over an inner plastic hub. The rubber component slips sometimes on the plastic hub and disables the scrolling/zooming function, I believe this occurs after about 12 months of use as the rubber becomes slightly too big for the plastic hub and is able to slip (i.e. it does not grip the inner plastic hub). First, remove the cover as per 0:24. The fix I then applied was to get a points file (or a nail file will also do) that has the tip removed so that the filing component goes right to the very end. I then gently scratched the plastic hub with the file all the way around so that the surface went from shiny to a matte finish. I used two quick grip clamps, one gently sideways on the mouse and the other clamping the first clamp to the table. I then pushed the rubber wheel to the side with my thumb nail which exposed the plastic hub that has a raised section down the middle and a shoulder rebate down the sides. I gently scratched the shoulder rebate and the raised section on one side all the way around and then pushed the rubber wheel the other way to scratch the other shoulder rebate on the other side of the inner plastic hub, once again all the way around. By doing this I increased the friction between the two surfaces, that is between the underside of rubber wheel and the upper-side of the plastic inner hub, on which the former component is meant to engage the latter component. With the necessary tools already available to me, it took less than ten minutes to fix. A small amount of relatively harmless plastic filings will be left behind, which should be brushed off or blown away. I would advise NOT to use sandpaper, as the sand component may enter the inside of the mouse and cause unforeseeable problems. A metal file will not have this problem assuming it is clean to begin with. I considered using super glue between the two surfaces, but decided against in case the glue went into undesirable locations near to the gears that convert the wheel motion into an electronic signal. I tried taking the next part of the mouse-shell apart but was not able to, if I had been able to do this the glue option might have been more valid. Let me know how you went, ...I do not know how long the fix will work for as yet. Kind Regards Mark Graeme Chiswell.
DPI is the standard used to measure the mouse sensitivity, expressed as the number of DPIs (dots per linear inch) that a device can detect. By changing the DPI, you can instantly adjust pointer speed for precision tasks, such as in-game targeting or photo editing. The greater the number of DPIs, the higher the mouse sensitivity, and the faster the pointer speed. Some mouse models include dedicated buttons (DPI On-the-fly buttons) you can use to instantly adjust your mouse sensitivity (DPI).
if I renamed it , it would be wrong since it uses bluetooth not wifi which is what I think you mean by wireless. Since a wireless keyboard can also use bluetooth
From ChatGPT: Yes, that's correct. If a wireless mouse comes with a dongle, it's typically using a proprietary wireless protocol specific to that manufacturer, not Bluetooth. While both Bluetooth and some wireless mouse technologies operate within the 2.4 GHz frequency band, they use different communication protocols. A Bluetooth mouse would connect directly to a device without the need for a separate dongle.
I now realize that all I had to do was put in the adapter and then my mouse would connect, thanks!

Can you buy a new adapter if u lost it?
I have lost usb what I can do

Found this at a thrift store today. The mouse doesn’t have the adapter. Can you send link to it?
Thank you
I am looking for that exact mouse. Do you happen to know the model number?
YOU THE MAN!!, THANKS BRO
Omg thank uuuu
Hai i just want that Bluetooth receiver i missed it
Tell me the link of the keyboard and mouse
Is there a way to cut the keyboard off?
Just plug the receiver and remove the batteries from the keyboard. There is no other way for sure.
The mouse wheel seems to be stripped after using it for 8 months. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Rename the title .. it's wireless keyboard and mouse.. not Bluetooth

@@TechandDesign So how do I connect this wireless mouse with a bluetooth device without the receiver?
