I have a Macbook Pro 13" with all the standard specs. I also have a Logitech Anywhere Mouse MX [Darkfield]. I want to assign shortcuts like going back on a page, going forward, and viewing open applications. Any ideas on how to do this? I cant find my drivers for the mouse either. Anywhere to download them maybe? Thanks in advanced.
Do you mean assigning shortcuts to the buttons on the side of the mouse? Or the mac hot corners & trackpad gestures?
Well 1. I got a different mouse, one that wouldnt break after a year of usage / lack of usage. 2. I knew I how to assign them on a PC, but on a mac its much more difficult finding 3rd party softwares to do it for you. And then once I figured it out, it caused my keyboard to stop working when the back command was assigned to it. So I gave up and got the Logitech Wireless Gaming Mouse G700. 100$ but a great spend. I had my old PC all hooked up, so I programmed the more complex buttons on there that would work on either platform, then did more mac based ones with USB Overdrive. With the combination of Logitech's online software, and this 3rd party application, I got all the shortcuts a man could need, for Diablo III, Minecraft, and web browsing (Only have 3 of the possible 5 (I think) profiles going). Both, but its not that big of a deal to get the spaces and trackpad gestures. Although I would like the gesture that brings up all open apps in a window (You know what Im talking about?)
You can set up hot corners to show you all open apps when you move your mouse to one of the screen corners, alternatively you have the trackpad gestures for that, but since your using a mouse it's better to set up the hot corners: System preferences -> Mission control -> On the botton left 'Hot corners' -> Then assign a command to each corner Or if you want to use the trackpad gestures: System preferences -> Trackpad -> Just check whatever you want.
