How to Pair a Logitech Bluetooth Mouse With Your PC
A Bluetooth mouse doesn’t come with a wireless receiver. The setup for this type of mouse is like pairing any other Bluetooth device with your Bluetooth-enabled PC. Unpack the Logitech Bluetooth mouse and insert the battery. Use the switch on the mouse to turn it on.
Can I Pair Logitech Mouse With Another Receiver?
A Logitech wireless mouse can pair with one receiver at a time. So, you cannot pair a Logitech wireless mouse with another receiver if you lose one of these tiny plugs. But there are two workarounds offered by Logitech if you lose the original receiver.
Use the Logitech Unifying Software
Purchase the Unifying USB receiver from Logitech. The dongle gives you the benefit of connecting six wireless devices to one receiver. The wireless devices from Logitech should support the Unifying technology. Look for the orange Unifying logo. Do note that a mouse works with one receiver at a time. So, it will no longer work with its original receiver if you pair it with a Logitech Unifying receiver.
Use the Logitech Connection Utility
The Logitech Connection Utility is a simple executable software that can help you pair a Logitech mouse with another receiver. Follow the simple on-screen instructions—switch the slider off and on to sync the Logitech wireless mouse with a different receiver. The Logitech Connection Utility is Windows-only software. Do note it might not work with all Logitech mouse models.
Bluetooth vs. Wireless Mice
A Bluetooth mouse and a wireless mouse are both “wireless.” But they differ in the way they connect with the computer. A wireless mouse uses a dedicated receiver that plugs into the USB port on the computer, while a Bluetooth mouse uses the computer’s Bluetooth antenna to pair with the mouse.
