20 Most Recent Kensington PocketMouse 72214 Questions & Answers

No problem... just buy a different brand of mouse. Kensington won't update drivers.

I have a Kensington Model K72214 Mouse. The dial does not work properly: instead of scrolling it spins. Also I am wondering where the on/off switch is on this.

Hi softfir,

I have never used one of those mice personally but those small ones should be designed the same way when it comes to the battery door. If you looked on the bottom of the mouse and there is no indication of a battery door, there may be a hidden door on the top of the mouse. Try this and see if it works:

Turn the mouse around with the label facing upside-down. Holding it with both hands, place your thumbs on the left and right side a little below the Kensington label. Using your thumbs, push the top of the mouse forward to see if the cover comes off easily and reveals the battery compartment.

Good luck and let me know if this helps,

remove the small screw from underneath the mouse, its at the back towards where your palm would be. Then slide the top silver part of the mouse back its a little tough but it will come off. Uses 2 AAA batteries.

For the Kensington Wireless Mouse 72214. Press the scroll wheel and the inset button on the bottom at the same time. This turns it on and off.
Press the inset button and the button on the end of the USB receiver at the same time and you will connect to the computer for use.

Hello figueroajose,

Welcome, and thank you for using FixYa!

Your answer is, that as soon as you turn your mouse off and then back on, it enters discovery mode. The mouse has to be setup in your particular Opertaing System though, and that part you did not list here.

Have a great day!

Observe to ascertain that is a wireless optic. usually wireless optic mouses require the adaptor section of be pluged to the computer to capture the signals. Also, mouse should light up soon after batteries were inserted in compartment. Power off the computer completely, repower on should capture the new settings.

Wireless Installation

Plug in the receiver to your usb port. Install batteries to mouse.

To establish a wireless connection, press the connect

button on the end of the receiver. Then, press the

connect button on the bottom of the mouse.

Click a button on the mouse to go..

Repeat this procedure when replacing the batteries.

IMPORTANT: This wireless device is similar to an FM radio, by

adjusting the antenna you can get better reception. You may

also want to experiment with different locations and positions

of the receiver.

The little light on the receiver should light up and flash fast untill it sees the mouse signal.
