Does the Keyboard have its own on/off switch? Does it have its own USB ? My mouse works fine but the keyboard does not. Please help

No, the keyboard connects with the same adaptor as the mouse and there is not an on/off. Change out the battery before you chalk it up to faulty.

The keyboard is switched off/on by the switch located on the mouse, also the entire unit runs off of a single USB piece that plugs into your pc and stores in bottom of mouse. So far I have had no problems with this product. Best option is to toss the old mouse and get a new setup.

The mouse and keyboard combo: Comes with a standard usb that connects to the computer. The mouse has the on off switch to save battery life. To my knowledge I have not found a usb port on the keyboard itself to power external devices.

It shouldn't have anything to do with your keyboard. This USB wired mouse connects to any USB port and interacts with your operating system, not the KB.

There is a special USB port for the keyboard. USB 2.0 Type B plug on one end and the regular USB on the other for your computer, which does not come with the keyboard. Hope that helps.

The keyboard will not work at all or will it work for awhile and shut off? Does the mouse work? Could it possibly be interference of some kind, maybe from cordless phone or baby monitor, some thing like that? Blutooth maybe? Wish i could help out more, sorry.

The K60 has two USB ports, one is for keyboard and the other is for the USB that you can plug into the back of the keyboard itself.I would suggest plugging in just the keyboard USB and getting that to work first.Also, check to see if the port itself is not broken, do flash drives plug in and activate properly?

No, this does not come with a keyboard or mouse. You have to provide your own USB mouse and keyboard.

The wireless mouse is completely separate from the keyboard. Both do, however, use the same USB connector, so bear that in mind. If you want to use the keyboard one place and the mouse somewhere else, they both have to use the same usb connector.

There is a mini usb port on the keyboard, but it is only used for charging the battery of the bluetooth keyboard.You can't, for example, plug a USB mouse into the keyboard and have it function.

My mouse does not have an "on" switch. After you put the battery in and put the usb adapter into the laptop click the LEFT top button on mouse and wait about three seconds - it should then work fine. If I leave my computer for any length of time it will silence itself and you must click the left top mouse button again to get it going. Great feature as it helps extend the battery life. Good luck! ** ALSO ** if working properly there will be a small red light illuminated on the underside of mouse - just flip it over and you will see it lit up if working...

I wish I could help you with an answer, but, I have never tried a mouse with this keyboard. I hope someone will be able to answer this for you.

No it doesn't have an on/off switch. However, while it does take two AAA batteries, I bought my keyboard just over 3 months ago, use it for both work and my personal computing (including gaming), and the batteries just died on me for the first time last night. So it's very efficient with its power use.

Hi Eimart, it only utilizes one (1) USB port because with the same USB dongle both keyboard and mouse are controlled. Regards...

Hey George! The keyboard has two usb's, one is for the lighting and the other is for keyboard functions. You can unplug one of the usb cord's to just use the keyboard, the software is so you can customize your hotkeys and colors!

You can use the navigation (arrow) keys on the keyboard for some things, use backspace or delete, "tab" to next "box" in a form, use the "enter" key after typing in a web address or a search, use the touch screen for everything else. Since I am a typist, I love the keyboard and found this one to operate very well. Sometimes the connection might be a little loose, so just pull it out and back in again or jiggle it a little. I was not aware that there are two USB ports -- one for keyboard and one for a mouse?

The only issue I have is that the mouse sometimes begins to act erratic. I have to move it closer to the dongle, then back again, and then it's okay. Happens every couple days. In the beginning, the mouse was doing it constantly, and the keyboard would miss keystrokes. To fix, I had to install a separate USB bracket in a rear expansion slot (plugged into a USB header on my MB) so the dongle was not in close proximity of other plugs/cables going into my PC. Keep in mind...my PC is on my desktop about 2 feet away from the keyboard/mouse; shouldn't be ANY problems. Well, not always, but usually, you get what you pay for. :/ The only issue I have is that the mouse sometimes begins to act erratic.

I sent mine back and went to a wired solution for the keyboard. There were too many issues with it to be counted. The biggest is that it has a small footprint and I have large hands. The other reasons were lag times. I know that wired is old school for my desktop this was the best solution. My laptop I use its kb. I hope this helps.
