    it seems the neither of the program can adjust the (up/down sensitivity, up/down profile) buttons, is there any other solution from you guys? i looked online and it seems that most other programs either support the pro|click, or the native support of deathadder.

    i didn't get neither because of the ease of changing sensitivity with two buttons, where deathadder might be better with support, but only one button that does that and i will lose the forward/backward function.

    as for pro|click, i don't know much about it.

    in short, besides the 4buttons that are no customizable and you have no choice in choosing which sensitivity level but the default rate (500, 1000, something 3500 and 4000 dpi), the mouse is great regardless, 4000dpi is an overshoot for mbp screen i admit, but it is the numbers of button that the mouse has decide for me over the deathadder

    ps. for my use, i only need two levels of sensitivity changes

    Does it not have profiles built in like the old copperheads?

    Could just set up different profiles with different sensitivities.

    Also Im pretty sure if you program the mouse in windows with the utility the sensitivity buttons will still work in osx.

    i was thinking of that too

    more detail, they have profile, the customization on buttons doesn't work, nor sensitivity settings, unless i made some mistake in programming the profile into the mouse

    strange, just coming from my experience with my copperhead, i could program it in windows, and im pretty sure whatever pc i brought it to, it still held the customization.

    Although I never used the sensitivity because it seemed like a useless thing to me. So I cant comment on that. Can you not just change the sensitivity in system preferences? Isnt it kinda the same thing?

    i can change the sensitivity with the buttons below the scroll wheel, but it does not differ from the default. nor i could not set up the buttons on the side either.

    i programmed it to zoom in/out instead of the profile change, but it still gave me the indicator of which profile i was into.

    i can change the buttons now but not the sensitivities
