USB Bluetooth in UK

[sebgreen]

Hey,

Know is been posted on here a few times but not really seen any which are easily available in the UK.

I ordered one on amazon. It shows up in the sys info as connected, but won't find my magic mouse.

Can anyone in the UK point me in the direction of one that works with mavericks please?

Thanks in advance.
Seb

Not sure what is happening here, I seem to be getting disappearing posts, again.

Anyway, the adaptor above is one I bought recently. It works 100% for me. It pairs correctly within a few seconds, it stays connected, it wakes the system from sleep, and it definitely works with apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I dont have the trackpad to test with though.

How did you get it to work?
Just plug it in then try to pair? I got it and can't seem to get it to work.

I got it to work by plugging it in to the USB hub on the back of my cinema display, then taking the mouse batteries out then putting them back in.

Bluetooth does seem to work better on USB2 than USB3.

Something to do with bus enumeration I *think*.
