Should I turn off the keyboard and mouse after use or leave?

I find it annoying to switch the keyboard power continually because of the password on and off.   Wouldn't be much difference to the life of the battery to let both mouse and keyboard lights permanently?

I have never turned off the mouse or the keyboard. The batteries have been used for about a month, with the mouse to 60% and the keyboard to 90%.

  • Should I turn off the keyboard and bluetooth mouse off?

    Hello

    I'm new to Apple products and have recently purchased an iMac with keyboard and mouse compatible bluetooth.  The are a switch on each accessory to activate the bluetooth on or off.  Should I turn off after closing down to save the battery power or not this wear simply on the switches.  Not sure if stop actually stops transmitting wireless accessories, or if the latter uses the negligible power when the computer is turned off.

    Thank you

  • What is the order to turn off the constraints and index

    Hi, I need to make some out of constraints and indexes on tables to load quite a date in them. I know that I can just drop them and recreate later. But is it feasible to figure who forced and in what order must be do disable or unusable before a load and after the load that is to say. without dropping to preserve? R before P data loading, and then P before R like I think that controls can jump in evertytime and are quite safe to deal with. But I did not carefully think about more, maybe you have some scripts that say exactly what should be the order to turn off the coast and later on this subject.

    Thank you!

    That's right: disable foreign key constraints before disabling the primary (or Unique) key constraint correspondent.  When you reactivate them, re - enable the constraint of primary (or Unique) key before the corresponding foreign key constraints.

    Aside from that, the order should not issue.

  • The keyboard and mouse bluetooth suddenly stops working

    I asked this question before using Dell, but none of the answers provided.
    The keyboard and mouse bluetooth suddenly stops working.

    Given that this only happens when I'm online I make this question to the FireFox support.
    I have the latest version of FF:

    I installed the new BIOS and Shipset, but that does not change.

    Suddenly, the keyboard and the mouse do not respond and I have to restart manually.

    The new App Store for El Capitan update has locked up my macbook pro.  Reboot got about 3/4 fact and the machine stops. Turned off the power and turn it on again for nothing doesn't.  How in my machine to begin troubleshooting?

    The problem is most likely an attempt to update a system malfunction prior it is probably a problem with your computer, not the El Capitan.

    Start by:

    Reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

    MacIntel: Reset of the controller (SMC) system management

    Start in Safe Mode , and then re - start normally. It's slower that a normal start, so be patient.

    If you are unable to start;

    Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

    Please make sure that you back up.

    1. Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Utility Menu appears.
    2. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.
    3. Select the withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) entry of the volume in the list aside.
    4. Click first aid icon in the toolbar. Wait until the button is active, then click it.
    5. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
    6. Select Reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

    Also, see this tip for user: basic steps for the OS X upgrade.

    If this doesn't get you;

    Install Yosemite or El Capitan, from scratch

    Backup if possible before proceeding.

    Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime hold down the command and R buttons until the Apple logo appears. When the Utility Menu appears:

    Select utility disc in the Menu Utility, then click the continue button.

    When loading disk utility, select the volume (entered into withdrawal, usually Macintosh HD) from the list of devices.

    Click Delete in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.

    Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).

    Click on the apply button, then wait for the done button to activate and click on it.

    Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.

    Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  • Connect the keyboard and mouse wireless with new transmitter/receiver

    Hello.

    I have a keyboard and wireless Microsoft mouse 2000 but the transceiver does not seem to work.

    I also have another transmitter/receiver (same model) which belongs to Microsoft Wireless Keyboard and Mouse 5000, so my question is:

    is there a way to use the wireless 2000 with this new transceiver box? How can I change the transceiver settings so that it finds the keyboard and mouse?

    Thanks in advance

    You can not.

    The receiver is synchronized with the keyboard and the mouse in the factory and cannot be re paired at the level of the Office

  • Logitech software unifyier do not see a receiver is connected and so I can't pair the keyboard and mouse to the computer.

    I bought a logitech keyboard and mouse.

    I contacted support and they work in another machine (vista), they say, that there is an error on this machine.
    When the connection to the wireless receiver, it shows and installs in windows 7 64 bit home edition premium, however, unifyier of logitech software can not see a receiver is connected and so I cant pair the keyboard and mouse to the computer.
    I've tried different usb, front and rear ports and USB 2.0 and 3.0, but there is no change.

    I suggest to download and install the Logitech Unifying software and restart the computer and check if it makes a difference. Logitech Unifying software lets you manage your devices that use a Unifying receiver. You can add or remove devices using Wizard of the software or to use advanced mode. The Advanced mode also displays the status of your paired devices, version of the firmware and battery level.

    This is equivalent to the old rule of iron of computing: If you have important files on your PC, then you need to back up an external medium regularly. Problem request not do or wait until you have a major problem. Fortunately, Windows 7 gives you a loop hole. Here's how it works:
    1. get a disk external 2.5 "in a USB case.
    2. connect it to the PC.
    3. set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    4. start the computer with the Windows 7 repair CD or with your Windows 7 installation DVD.
    5. press a button if you are prompted to start from the DVD.
    6. When prompted, select "Safe Mode Command Prompt".
    7. connect as administrator if you are prompted.
    8. Select repair when prompted.
    9. Select command prompt.
    10. save your files or folders on the external USB drive (or a flash drive).
    If you are not familiar with the commands of copy in the command line environment, ask a friend gifted in computer science to help you.

    After solving the problem of keyboard and mouse, do you a favor and use the USB disk as backup media. On a regular basis.
