Hiya Listers,
Can anyone tell me why my G4 1.5 GHz Mini (OS X Tiger 10.4.2,
deliberately!) thinks I have a Bluetooth Mouse and insists I produce it?
I had to restart my Mini because it "locked up" when I plugged my USB
external HD into it (something I've done successfully before), but along
with the desktop coming up, the Bluetooth Setup Assistant is trying
unsuccessfully to find a Bluetooth mouse. All I have is optical mice
which (up until a few minutes ago with the Mini here) worked fine. My
present mouse is a Logitech optical 2 button scroll wheel mouse which
I've been using and it's still working fine on my Quicksilver 867
(through the KVM) which I'm using right now to write this post. Anyway:
Where's this Bluetooth stuff coming from? I don't own any Bluetooth
peripherals of any kind, much less ever tried to set that up on my Mini.
It's whining the following:
Pairing with your Bluetooth mouse
When your mouse is found, it will be paired with your computer. If your
mouse is not found, make sure it is "discoverable." If you are using an
Apple Wireless Mouse, slide the cover on the bottom of the mouse to
expose the LED. For a non-Apple mouse, see the documentation that came
with the mouse.
Need to know what to do to be able to start up the Mini and NOT get
this. Never had this happen before...
Thanks in advance,
~Yersinia.
