Well you won't have any issues but you need to install the receiver on whatever computer you're working on. you can't have 2 receivers on each computer and hope the mouse will respond to each one separately, I can tell you because I have 2 receivers and I tried that. I tried using the 1 receiving on my desktop and hoping to install the 2nd receiver on my laptop, needless to say it didn't work I needed to remove the receiver from my desktop to my laptop in order to get it working without any issues.Hope that helps.

I use two laser mice, each is paired with own USB receiver, and I also use a corded mouse, so three mice at the same time on a sinlge computer.

Victor Torres is incorrect.You will not have issues with this mouse. Each mouse is paired to its unique receiver. This mouse uses the "UNIFYING" receiver, which allows you to pair up to 5 devices to the same receiver. However, in order to pair two devices (in your case, two mice) to the SAME receiver, you must use the SetPoint Software.If you plug two receivers into the computer, you will be prompted about the UNIFYING software but you have the option to KEEP both UNIFYING receivers active.In summary, you can pair two of these same mice to the same computer OR pair them to different computers. There will be no "crosstalk" between the two different UNIFYING receivers. Victor Torres is incorrect.You will not have issues with this mouse. Each mouse is paired to its unique receiver.

Yes, but a real KVM would be better since that will simulate a mouse and keyboard on BOTH systems at launch( or all, since there are KVMs that support more than just 2 machines at once), IOGear has some nice cheap 2 machine KVMs that will work wonders for you, (you can share single monitor with that setup also, or if you don't need that, then just plug the monitors up separately from the KVM cables). Also a really nice feature of some KVM is to be able to switch between the machines by pressing scroll lock twice. But to your direct question... This will probably work, but is really designed for toggling other devices such as an external hard drive, or USB drives, etc. Also you would need a USB hub if your mouse and keyboard are not a single pair.

It can support more than 1 device at a time. It cannot support more than 1 connection with the same profile type. This means you can connect a keyboard, mouse, headset and whatever else as long as its not the same device type. 2 headsets will not work simultaneously nor will 2 mice as they use the same profiles for input/output. Hope that makes sense.

You can use the same cable for the mouse. I have an extra cable plugged into my computer just in case I need to recharge both the mouse and keyboard at the same time. For as inexpensive as they are, it is worth buying an extra cable.

I've never had 2 working simultaneously, but are you able to try the second on on a different computer? Maybe it's one per program. Are you using there software for this?

i found that manufacturer says you can only use one system, but some user are using two system without problem. that's what i've found so far.

No - each mouse has their own frequency. I have the same setup at my house, no problems.

I have a Logitech M310 mouse that I am using with this keyboard. However, the mouse will not pair with the HP keyboard dongle, so I am using 2 USB ports, one for the keyboard and one for the mouse. This configuration works perfectly. Since I have 4 USB ports on my laptop, using 2 for the mouse and keyboard is not an issue especially since I like the keyboard so much.

You can use a Bluetooth mouse at the sametime as the keyboard. I do it all the time. Just don't be surprised if the mouse icon jumps a little bit. Sometimes when the tablet is doing heavy processing the mouse will jump around if you are trying to move it. This happens with any mouse though (Bluetooth or USB alike).

I had the same type situation. I did have another keyboard with usb and have mice of both kinds, so had no problem.

I have two different branded laptops and the mouse works flawlessly with both. I have had no problems with the Logitech M318e mouse.

As someone who does own multiple of these mice (desktop, laptop, media center, probably another one for work):1. They'll work fine, and won't interfere. If you have any Logitech wireless keyboards you're using with them, though, I'd suggest pairing the mice with the existing keyboard dongles to minimize the possibility of the 2.4GHz channels getting clogged up with all the communication taking place.2. Yes. You could even use them simultaneously :)

I've heard the reason for the two USB's is in case you have a computer that doesn't provide enough power on just one USB, then you have to use two. It seems to work fine with just one USB with my Compaq (HP) 6730s laptop. I've also tried in on my HP desktop and it also works with just one USB. My thoughts are, try it with one and if it works, great! If not, then you'll have to use two.

If your question is about whether you will have wireless interference between the 2, then no it will work fine with the keyboard. The mouse is seperated from the keyboard and both will use their own usb slot with the usb dongles provided. I use this mouse with my contracting and have had many customers with wireless keyboards, headphones and other peripherals without any problems. Personally I have not noticed a single issue with this mouse and would highly suggest picking it up as it is one of the best wireless mice I have used. The batteries (that came with the mouse) lasted over a year of almost daily use, again with no issues.

I have 2 monitors on my system, one using the built in DVI, the other using HDMI. I am running Win 7 and both work side by side just fine. I can move the mouse between them and it acts as if its just one monitor. All of this without and extra video card. Does that help?

I've seen it work using 4 monitors. Their data sheets say it will work with up to 6 monitors. There may be some restrictions depending on your systems graphics capability. I use it in a 3 monitor environment. Two 21" monitors on connected to the PC the other to the USB graphics and a 3rd 24" monitor plugged into my computer. I would think newer computers wouldn't have a problem with it but always the caveat that not all computer systems are equal. I've read enough that if you are using a laptop to drive this you won't get more than 4 monitors in most cases and that includes the one on the laptop. Hope this helps.

I have used multiple USB slots at the same time with no problems. This laptop only has two USB 3.0 slots and one 2.0 though. I should also add, that I removed Windows "8" andinstalled Windows "7" Pro as soon as I got my laptop. So there could, I guess, be an issue with Windows "8" but if so I haven't heard about it. I have taken this laptop to severalcountries with "dirty power" and it has traveled extensively with me and never given a problem of any kind. Good luck!!
