The DiNovo PC edition only talks to WIndoze. Logitech sells a Mac version for Macs.

Mac Bluetooth finds it but won't "pair" it. Assuming you've initiated the pairing procedure correctly on the keyboard then I'm pretty sure you are SOL. Does the Mac see it as a keyboard?

Logitech DiNovo Keyboard & MediaPad
A friend gave me a brand new Logitech DiNovo Keyboard and MediaPad. Unfortunately, according to Logitech support, there is no way to get it to work on a Mac. Would anyone on the list know of a stable workaround to solve this problem?
