ABOUT MX ANYWHERE 2
Unleash the potential of MX Anywhere 2S by using Logitech Flow ™, for the smoothest workflow between computers. You’ll be able to move your mouse cursor across three computers and even copy/paste text, images and files from one computer to another. Aug 03, 2017 Most of my problem — jittery Logitech MX Anywhere 2S with Mac mini 2018 over Bluetooth — went away after I switched off and dismantled a 3rd-party USB 3.0 powered hub. But it definitely works best with Bluetooth turned off and using the dongle in the side of my old (wired) Apple keyboard.
Logitech MX Anywhere 2 Wireless mobile mouse is a lightweight wireless mouse that sets new standards for performance and precision in a mouse you can take with you.
Connect with up to three devices using Logitech’s tiniest receiver — the Pico Unifying™ receiver — or Bluetooth® Smart wireless technology; then switch between your Mac, PC, or Microsoft Surface with the touch of a button.
Use the scroll wheel to navigate in click-to-click mode or in a hyperfast mode that’s perfect for long documents or web pages. Convenient back and forward buttons give you even greater control.
The compact MX Anywhere 2 is the ideal combination of comfort and portability — at home, at work, and on the go. Darkfield™ Laser Tracking gives you flawless control on virtually any surface, including glass (4 mm minimum thickness) and other high-gloss materials.

I have a bit of a strange config here. It’s a MBP 13' non-TB 2017, Windows 10 Education Creators Update running with Bootcamp Drivers (the latest that Bootcamp Assistant downloaded as of last night), but Windows is running on an external USB3 SSD as a portable ‘Windows To Go’ installation.
This is my trusty mouse that has always worked solid no matter what system I’ve tried it on, but it’s giving me grief now. It’s a Logitech MX Anywhere 2 that I’m trying to run over Bluetooth (I much prefer the Logitech Unifying receiver, alas, no USB-A). It pairs ok, but as soon as the mouse goes to sleep, it doesn’t work any more as a pointing device. This means I can usually only get a max runtime of about 30–45 seconds before it stops working entirely. I can tell that the mouse wakes up ok, because there’s a light on the bottom that glows when it’s active. The only way that I can get it working again is to unpair it, and then re-pair it. Rebooting doesn’t seem to work.
Things I’ve tried:
-using Windows’ built in drivers
-using Logitech’s drivers through their ‘Options’ app
-uninstalling and reinstalling Windows’ built in drivers
-uninstalling and reinstalling Logitech Options
-repairing the Bootcamp drivers
Works perfectly fine with Bluetooth in High Sierra. I haven’t tried any other Bluetooth devices, as I don’t have any. I guess I could try with my iPhone…
At wit’s end here, as Apple’s Windows touchpad drivers are horrid, and the whole point of running Windows was to play games which is something I can’t do with a touchpad anyway. Help me Ars, you’re my only hope (trust me! I’ve scoured the web for this problem, and couldn’t find any one else with the same issue!)
