    I just bought a wireless keboard and mouse set, at target. Well when i got home i realized the mouse wasnt usb, so i couldnt use it, but the keyboard was usb. I tried to install and just see how the keyboard worked, and nothing works. i installed the software, and when i plug in the keyboard it tells me to hit a button to snyc keyboard. nothing works.

    Has anyone had issues with logitech wieless keyboards with leopard?

    I haven't had any issues with Logitech for a long time. If it's a wireless set, then you'd have a receiver that plugs in one USB port on the computer, and the keyboard and mouse are not wired. Were both in one box? Or was it two separate products?

    If they were both supposed to be wireless, it sounds like someone returned the set with different parts.

    Hmmm i cant even find a model #. its just called cordless desktop. made in 2004. the number above barcode is CDLS DT 967437-0403. the keyboard and mouse use same reciever. the mouse is ps/2 and the keyboard can be either ps/2 or usb. the cd says mac os x on it so i figured it would work

    I use the Logitech S530 at home, and have had zero problems with it. Even after an Erase and Install, Leopard picked the keyboard and mouse up (I thought I would have had to use the wired keyboard and mouse initially, but no).

    Amazon.com is selling it for same price I paid back in November $48.50 (normally $99)

    Also, if you get this one, Logitech has released LCC 2.4 (I think thats the version) fully supported for Leopard
