Question 1

what kind of batteries does it use

Accepted Answer

The one I just purchase comes with 2 AAA batteries not 3. Was working great when I first received it, now it doesn't work at all. Such a disappointment!

Question 2

Will it work with Mac book??

Accepted Answer

Info for the mouse is not confusing or  conflicting.  It is not Bluetooth, but requires the USB receiver.   It works with any device with Windows or Mac OS 10; and which have a USB port.  So the specs on the MacBook Air need to be checked carefully before buying - some have USB port, some don't.  It's that simple.The model No. on the receiver is MGR0975, which is paired with the mouse Model No.  B0005EJh6Z4.  They are a pair, and yes they work with Apple with OS 10, but you need a USB port for the receiver.  I don't use apple, but googling finds:   Macbook air 11.6” display, 4th gen intel, Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks, 1 USB Type C & 2 USB 3.0 (backward compatible w 2.0)  Model MD712LL/A  on Best Buy   In fact, I wonder about that OS 10.9 Maverickssince the specs for the mouse say OS 10 only.  Ask Amazon.

Question 3

Is this a silent mouse? I mean, noiseless, without the traditional clicking sound, ideal to use in a classroom or a library?

Accepted Answer

Because there are so many conflicting answers to this, I feel compelled to clarify some of the less intelligent replies. You DO hear very soft clicking sounds with this mouse, but NOTHING like what you hear on an older mouse. My older mouse made very loud and noticeable clicking sounds that could be easily heard from across a room. This mouse is barely noticeable at all because the click is "soft." The best way I can describe it is to say that it's like there is padding inside to absorb the sound. When I click this mouse, the person sitting 3 feet from me can only hear it if we are deliberately still, and concentrate on hearing it. With my old mouse, every click was like someone snapping their fingers. This mouse is barely a whisper.

I don't know why others say it's too loud for a library or office setting. Perhaps older versions of this mouse were loud, but I purchased mine in 2023 and it is (pardon the pun) as quiet as a mouse! I am very happy with my purchase.

Question 4

How far from the receiver is still working fine?

Accepted Answer

I have stayed as far as 24 feet and the mouse still works.
