ance Dont scrap your “missing dongle” Logitech devices! Solution Here
Summary:
We all have logitech devices im sure that we have lost the dongle (USB connection) for. I know have at least 20 keyboards and 20 mice — it becomes a nightmare if you are a real computer geek. Maybe you know what im talking about maybe not, regardless. I have a solution for you . This doesnt work with every single generic dongle but most do work, with any logitech device, it will tell you if it will work or not. Before I show you the program itself , here are some of the devices I know for fact work with universal USB logitech dongle and the Logibolt program:
These are the devices I know work with the universal program Logibolt.exe I have found.
and the ultracheap, mega generic ones. I have many of these:
In comes Logibolt — OS Independant (ive had it work in Linux OSX and Win).
This is pretty rudenmentary and I didnt feel it was even worth posting, but, after thinking about how much BS Ive gone thru to match these USB with kb/mouse I figured others have too.
Get the App. Google — Logibolt Logitech Download
Window Download Link for Logibolt —

Feel free to scan it via https://virustotal.com ( i recommend this with any external s/w prior to installing it)
Lets skip forward to linking it to a device.
Click Add Device, then you should see a screen letting you pick the type of reciever you have. If none are listed, plug the dongle directly in, (not in a hub), if still no go, that one might be too old. Plug in another one, until you have an option to click it.
Now one thing i have learned from this, dont try to add multiple devices at once,one at a time. youll be set. I think it supports up to 16!
Once you click Add Device, turn your mouse or KB (or mouse/kb combo) on, and with any luck:
Add as many devices as you need, but keep in mind that specific dongle is going to be mandatory to make those devices work only on that PC. I dont think its going to be global if you switch it to another PC.
I know this info is readily available on the net, yet i still hear people complaining about the dongle mismatch BS, so im just trying to make it 100% clear that this is the best solution!
Happy Typing and Clicking ;p
