I recently got a Macally bluetooth mouse, and it initially paired fine with my powerbook running 10.3.8. However, everytime I turn the computer off or it goes to sleep, I have to pair the mouse again in order to get it to connect. Under devices, the mouse will show up, but it is not connected. I've tried pushing the connect button on the bottom, to no avail. I noticed that the mouse shows up as a 'peripheral device' rather than a mouse on the bluetooth menu.

I'm trying to figure out how to make sure the mouse will be automatically connected whenever it is in range, and also, if possible, change the device type from 'peripheral' to 'mouse'. (discoverable is on) Any thoughts, suggestions, ideas?
