Bluetooth hangs new MacBook Pro
Gear:
Brand New MacBook Pro 15" and new Bluetooth Mighty Mouse - OSX 10.5.5
Use Case:
Case closed, using bluetooth mouse, working fine.
Computer goes to sleep.
Wake up computer.
Bluetooth says that it’s connected and sees mouse, but bluetooth mouse does not respond.
Green light is steady on the bottom of the mouse
Can disconnect mouse in menu and reconnect and no response.
Can delete and re-pair it and it doesn’t work.
To fix, you must choose shut down computer, and you get stuck with a spinning status wheel. You have to hold down the power button and make it physically shut down.
Happens on all our MacBook Pros with Bluetooth.

Inappropriate?Happens on a fully specced Mac Pro as well. BT Keyboard & mighty mouse. Worked fine for weeks and then.... hangs the box after a decent period of inactivity. I am now going to have to forensic avery piece of active software that I have installed since Christmas... Agghhh!!!!

I’m annoyed that I didn't put a change process in place for myself.

Inappropriate?It happens to me as well. MBP with OS X 10.5.6 and Mighty Mouse + Apple Wireless Keyboard.

Inappropriate?I have a brand-new MBP and my wireless keyboard stops responding once in a while. I have to disconnect and reconnect. Never happened with my circa Feb '07 MBP. Batteries are full, BTW.

Inappropriate?What happens to me is worse, though. New bluetooth mighty mouse installed, works great, but the MBP's keyboard stops responding! I can log in, but after that, no keyboard use at all. I have to plug in a USB keyboard to type. Currently on 10.5.8, will upgrade to 10.6.1 to see if that fixes it... fingers crossed. Anyone else seen this happen?
