MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 not working in SL

[Steve Mannix]

Hey all, did a clean install of Snow Leopard on my 2007 Macbook, it appears all went well. However, my MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 will not connect via Bluetooth. Based on a search elsewhere I installed the SL compatible MS Intellipoint software for the Mac but it will not work. It is "on" and "discoverable" but will not connect.

Anyone else have this mouse (or another BT notebook mouse, even) and get it working?

Thanks in advance

Andy

Sorry to reply to my own post...got it working. After following a few recommendations without succcess I realized I had not made it properly discoverable. Once I did that, SL quickly found it and it's working fine.
