    another thing im missing from windows is the ability to use the back/forward button to navigate between webpages on my logitech mouse. anyone know how i can get this feature to work? right now it only works as a scroll - you click in and move the mouse up/down to scroll along the page. lame.

    Try installing the latest drivers for your mouse. That usually fixes it.

    thanks for the reply, unfortunately logitech only offers window drivers and zero support for macs.

    the mouse model is MX1000 bluetooth laser if that helps.

    I have to disagree here. I too have the MX1000 Logitech mouse and there is a downloadable software on Logitechs site for OSX.

    From http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/428/783&cl=us,en?osid=9

    Software:

    * Title: Logitech Control Center for Macintosh® OS X
    * Software Version: 2.6
    * Post Date: 6/8/2008
    * Platform: Macintosh OS X
    * File Size: Approximately 13 Mb
