If you encounter issues with your mouse, try the following:

  • Mouse Not Responding: Try plugging the USB cable into a different USB port on your computer. Restart your computer.
  • Tracking Issues: Ensure the optical sensor is clean and that you are using the mouse on a suitable surface (e.g., a mouse pad). Avoid highly reflective or transparent surfaces.
  • Software Problems: If Logitech G HUB is not functioning correctly, try restarting the software or reinstalling it.
  • Buttons Not Working: Verify button assignments in Logitech G HUB. Ensure no physical obstructions are preventing button presses.
