but the keyboard & it's drivers kill Logitech hands down in features and regular use. Microsoft's latest combo keyboard just feels so much better. I really liked the mouse and keyboard, from a physical standpoint. I really didn't want to get rid of my Logitech combo. so I decided to look into other hardware solutions. In the end, USB Overdrive is just so much better that I couldn't stand to live without it. it really is surprising that MS did such a good job on their Mac drivers.

What I really needed in a keyboard driver was finally provided by Microsoft with their combo. but even LCC's controls for the keyboard were weak. the driver ended up being pretty much necessary to use the keyboard effectively. I ended up suffering through the lack of functionality and inability to use some apps effectively just to have the extra keys on the keyboard. but losing the ability to use the extra keys was not an option for me. without the driver, I had 'minimal' keyboard functionality. I think the results were probably the same. that don't require you to write applescripts just to play games in the first place. and FAR exceeds Logitech's keyboard combo) and a solo Logitech wireless mouse (running USB Overdrive).īetter to just go with drivers from a developer that cares. In the end, I bought a microsoft wireless keyboard (which, oddly, is much better than I could have hoped. My guess is that your solution above would kill keyboard support for combo owners. it was also impossible to use USB Overdrive, which is a far superior mouse driver, because the keyboard and mouse drivers are tied together. which was a shame because Logitech makes the best mice. When I was using a Logitech MX combo (keyboard + mouse), I became so frustrated with the lack of functionality, unusable keys, poor user interface, and terrible support from Logitech that I have since thrown the keyboard and mouse away.

I couldn't find an easier way to do it, so here is a little AppleScript to toggle the software on or off: tell application 'System Events' if exists process 'LCCDaemon' then do shell script 'killall LCCDaemon' else open '/Library/Application Support/Logitech/LCCDaemon.app' end ifend tellThat is the first bit of AppleScript I ever wrote, so if there are neater ways to do it, then please post them!Īn even better idea is just to scrap Logitech Control Center, which is just plain terrible software, and use USB Overdrive instead. However, when you do that, the System Preferences pane no longer functions (it seems to rely on the daemon to tell it what is connected via the RF USB box). However, with these settings on, games like Quake don't recognise the extra buttons properly, and the only solution seemed to be to kill the Logitech Control Centre software manually each time.

PS: I tried third-party general mouse backward/forward enablers, and they did not work well.I just recently replaced my Apple Pro Mouse with a nice cordless scroll-wheel one from Logitech, and busily set up all the buttons to close windows and option click for tabs just like everyone else does. Is this impossible? Of is there any way to achieve this? So, if I can deceive Logitech Control Center so that it thinks my M525 to be a V470 (or any similar model that is supported by it), the backwards/forwards buttons should work.

I guess the hardware signal code for backward/forward from M525 must be the same as V470, because they work without drivers on Windows. But for some reason, Logitech has refused to support M525 on OS X. To my contemplation, that should be very easy for Logitech to support backward/forward buttons, because all the logic is in the Logitech Control Center itself, not in the hardware. Personally I do not find any technical justification for this. So, the backward/forward buttons of V470 works but not those of M525. The problem is that the Logitech Control Center supports V470 but not M525. It seems Logitech Control Center has extra modules to receive the backward/forward button inputs from hardware and send back/forward messages to programs. OS X, on the other hand, does not support them natively. On Windows/Linux, backward/forward mouse buttons are supported natively, so those buttons of M470/M525 work out of the box without any special driver or program. Logitech V470 is also very similar to M525 other than it is a Bluetooth mouse.

There is no special buttons or features on this mouse. Backward/forward buttons are implemented as left/right tilt of the wheel. The Logitech M525 is a simple mouse with two buttons and a wheel. I know that this is a difficult question.
