Q: QuestionBattery LifeI'm not happy with the battery life of the mouse that came with my new apple computer, and wondering if anyone out there can compare the two with the battery life of this mouse, or would it be better for me to upgrade on a new keyboard and mouse combination.

Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer I'm not an Apple user so I can't speak to your question about battery life comparison with a Mac. I can, however, say that I run an M705 wireless mouse next to a wireless MS keyboard on a PC and have no compatibility problems. The M705 has a three-year battery life. If you're thinking about the M705, I would definitely recommend it (assuming you're right-handed). If you're happy with your keyboard I think you should keep on using it and forego buying a keyboard-mouse combination.

Q: QuestionI currently have a Logitech keyboard (K520) and mouse (M705) that share the same USB (unifying) receiver. The mouse needs to be replaced. If I order a new M705 mouse will it work with the same USP receiver that my current keyboard uses?

Asked 5 years ago by jetball.

• A:Answer Hello Jetball. The M705 and K520 use our Unifying technology, so any other unifying mouse or keyboard can be paired up with the same USB receiver. To pair them, use our Unifying program found here: https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025297913

Q: QuestionWill the Logitech Marathon M705 wireless laser mouse work with bluetooth wireless keyboard

Asked 8 years ago by Bob.

• A:Answer Originally I purchased a set: keyboard and mouse. Both of them worked perfect for couple of years using a single USB stick. Few month ago I started notice that when I hold left button down and trying to select area the selection is dropped and new selection starts right where the previous one ended. The problem became worse. Sometimes my clicks were translated as double clicks. It became very annoying and I could not use this mouse any longer. I searched the web and it appears that it is common problem with this mouse. Folks suggested to re-solder buttons connectors. I did that and it did not help. I bought another mouse the same as this one. It came with its own USB stick. When I removed old USB stick and put this one my keyboard stopped working and vise versa: the new mouse does not work with old keyboard's USB stick. So what... I have both USB stick plugged in and my old keyboard and new mouse work perfect. The USB stick issue is not really an issue. This is done on purpose to make sure multiple people can use the same devices when work close to each other. If this mouse will start to give me the same head ache in a few years I will get another one. I just love the design, but it would be nice of course if Logitech would address this common issue.
