YAMAGATO  If installed (3.0.1), interferes with Apple's Magic Mouse drivers. Will allow MM use as a 2-button mouse and nothing more. Must uninstall USBOD to gain access to the multi-touch MM features in Apple's driver.

DOUG ENGELBART  In my old "Overdrive X 10.4.5" everything worked fine. Now I switched to this new v3.0.1 and re-configured my old settings (more than 30) with success, but I also got the following issues (OSX.5.8, G4):

1.) I cannot choose these two games anymore to configure mouse key settings: "Diablo II (Carbon)" and "Baldur's Gate II". I can select each applications’ file in the "Choose" dialog, but when I click "Open" there to choose the application, then the application is not chosen (the popup field still says "Application: Choose Application...") and "Cancel/OK" hangs so that I must force-quit the dialog.

2.) This new Overdrive now can export settings (as documented). But it can only export each single setting for each single application separately. How do I save my whole bunch of more than 30 application settings in one single export file?   
(Version 3.0.1)

MEGAMAN  I've been getting major kernel panics with 3.0.1.

I've written to the developer a couple of times now with no response.

Anyone else having problems?  
(Version 3.0.1)

THMGHTD  I'm a little embarrassed that I can't seem to find a definitive answer to this. Maybe my Googling isn't what it used to be.

Or maybe it was never that good.

Either way: I'm wondering if USB Overdrive can work, in any capacity, with the thin/aluminum Apple USB Keyboard with Numeric Keypad. The model number is A1243, Apple Part # MB110LL/A)

It's plugged in to a 13" MacBook Pro with its lid kept shut and an external Cinema Display as the primary/only monitor. The Status tab of USB Overdrive shows the Apple Optical USB Mouse (which is plugged into the keyboard), but no keyboard.

I'd love to be able to customize... well, to be honest, the whole keyboard, but that's a different app, I'm sure. Farting around with the media keys would be great, though, and my (misguided?) understanding is, somehow, there's a way to do it.

I've been sure to remove all the SteerMouse components, and I had FunctionFlip installed but disabled it and made sure none of its agents are running.

I fired off an email to their support address, but since it's the weekend I don't expect an immediate reply and figured I could ask around...

Thanks in advance!

GORDON142  OK, I think this is back to being my favorite universal USB HID Device Controller. This version finally allows me to use all buttons on my logitech mouse, and almost all extra functions of my Microsoft Keyboard. The new interface is elegant and easy to configure. I've been using Steermouse for a long time (an excellent programme, by the way), but I think I'm going to move to Overdrive for now.

ITISTODAY  With this one piece of software I can do away with Logitech's drivers for my keyboard, and Microsoft's drivers for my mouse. Truly ironic and ridiculous how this independent developer can provide better quality software than those two giants--to their own products. All I can say is "thank you!"  
(Version 3.0.1)

STEVEN GOODHEART  Bought a license 9 years ago...used it for quite a while, and then had various Microsoft Intellitype keyboards and used MS's pref pane instead for customization (I'm no fan of MS, but they make a damn fine, comfortable, usable keyboard)

Then, with Snow Leopard, the IntelliType and IntelliMouse pref pane/driver mostly broke, and the MS site says there won't be a SL compatible pref pane until mid-October. (I posted info and the MS link at a recent review of the Intellitype software here on MacUpdate.)

Since I make a living with my keyboard, I really was in a bind, because I can barely type on a regular keyboard after being so spoiled by the comfortable, splayed-hand layout of the IntelliType boards....so, I thought, "Well, USBOverdrive was always rock solid for me, wonder if it will talk to my IntelliType Natural Ergonomic 4000 keyboard." I downloaded it, tried, and was able to get back 95% of my IntelliType's special keys (the only thing USBOverdrive can't seem to program are the special "My Favorites" keys (1 through 5) although it *can* program the "star* key that the MS pref pane uses to program those 5 keys. Also, USB doesn't see the Windows "Apps" key on the right side of the keyboard, but I never used that even with the MS pref pane.)

So, to save my bacon, I happily bought a new copy of USBOverdrive and consider it money very well-spent. Not only can it program the heck out of just about any keyboard, including MS's Ergonomic Seri9es, but almost any mouse, giving full-functionality to my MS Laser 6000 cordless mouse to boot. (Of course, it also does all kinds of joysticks and other USB devices, but I don't use them.)

If I didn't want to be able to finally program "My Favorites" keys, I probably would just dump the MS pref panes for good -- but when MS finally comes out with the new pref panes, I'll probably want to program my "My Favorites" -- it's so handy to punch a button to open an app, switch, run a script -- almost anything you can think of. In the meantime, I'm very, very happy with USB Overdrive X 3.0 and am making my own "favorites" with various F-key combos. Hmmm, maybe I won't go back after all. :)

Anyway, this is a rock-solid, feature-packed piece of software with a very reasonable price and I highly recommend it to anyone who want to program their keyboard or mouse. It was a real god-send to me in my work.

DEANRO  Disabling mouse acceleration does not seem to work 100% in this new version  
(Version 3.0)

DOUG BRANDT  OK... got it working. Did away with all my old Logitech prefs and that did it. Thanks for the heads up!  
(Version 3.0)

EASER  My problem is that, whereas the program is working, it did not keep any of my settings from the previous version. There is an "import settings" function, but what, exactly, am I supposed to be importing? It defaulted to the "Documents" folder, where there was never any kind of USB Overdrive file before. I went into the "Preferences" folder and, no, that got me nowhere. So, are you telling me that I now have to literally reconfigure everything I had spent so much time configuring in the past? This new version has no ability to automatically maintain the settings I had? It accepted my old license code; I appreciate that. But this is really annoying. If I'd doing something wrong, I'd sure like to know about it. No other program I've used that's been updated to SL has acted like this.
