The leapfrog clickstart lights aren't communicating. Same problem as first poster

mcdevito75 here, Do you also have to re-set the mouse?? Refer to the instruction manual for info. Also does the mouse take a battery?? Call or visit Leap Frog online for more info.

Make sure there is nothing blocking the path between the keyboard and the console. It needs line of sight to work properly. If this doesn't help; I'm sorry. This fixed my problem with the same issue.

if u have connected after the system has started you need to restart it to make it functional ...
if its a 'USB mouse no restart requires...
if neither works probabily problem with mouse ..just replace it !!! instead of wasting time

You blew the circuit board by putting to much power into it. Never use more power then suggested for this reason. All adaptors have a volt and an amp rating. Sorry it happend best wishes!

We had this happen within the first 30 minutes that we owned the Click Start! It still happens periodically when the kids are using it. For us the LED lights are flashing non-stop on the keyboard, and the mouse does not move the cursor on the screen and you cannot "click" on anything either.

Solution: On the underside of the keyboard is a very tiny hole. Push a pin or a paper clip into it, you'll feel some give in there like you are pushing a button. I push it until the lights stop flashing on the keyboard. It's the reset button. So far this has worked for us everytime.

Good luck.

I bought my son a click start for Christmas and after about 10 days we had this problem as well. If you remove the back plate where the mouse plugs into the keyboard and sort of wiggle and push the cord inward and then replace the plate cover the mouse should work again. I have had to do this several times, which is kind of annoying, but I suppose it's worth it since my son really loves the toy.

I did a google search -leapfrog my first computer and installation instructions and found it online....I have it as an pdf if you want me to send it to [email protected] ....good luck....

are you sure you have the keyboard near enough and pointing towards the computer unit. As it is said that it works wirelessly (which obviously is correct as there are no wires) but this normally means wi-fi which can be moved anywhere however the clickstart works with the very unreliable infa red so the unit needs to be close and pointing towards the keyboard. hope this helps
