This is strange...

This should be automatically detected without the need of install any third part software/kext...

BTW, did you already tried this drivers??? > http://logitech-viva.navisite.net/we...mac/lcc351.zip

Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your OS X disk and after this, use Kext Wizard to run all maintenance routines for /Extra/Extensions and /System/Library/Extensions...

PowerOff the machine by pressing the COMBO keys below...

Apple Keyboard...

Code:

CTRL + OPTION + COMMAND + F12

PC Keyboard...

Code:

CTRL + WINDOWS + ALT + F12

PowerOn the machine again and use the flag -s to boot the system...

When you reach the "root#" prompt, run the commands below...

Code:

fsck -fy

mount -uw /

chown -R root:wheel /Extra/Extensions/*

chmod -R 755 /Extra/Extensions/*

chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/*

chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/*

kextcache -v 3 -a i386 -a x86_64 -m /Extra/Extensions.mkext -z /Extra/Extensions/

kextcache -v 3 -a i386 -a x86_64 -m /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext -z /System/Library/Extensions/

reboot

Boot normally and see what happens...

I use a similar method, I boot into Mac, hit ⌘-Space bar to open the Spotlight and the search for KextUtility and run it, finally I hit the Fn+F2 to shutdown my computer and turn it back on and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much !!! and now we're back to the main point which is get my wireless mouse work, sorry for bothering you.

Update: My wireless mouse worked!!! I plug the receiver in and I open System Profiler and QUALA my USB receiver appear and now my mouse worked!!!! Thank you so so so much for helping me, I really really appreciated it
