Best Presentation Remote For Mac
Works great on my MacBook Pro with toolbar I read the previous review and decided to try it anyway. I can only guess that the reviewer didn't download the software from Logitech. The instructions are rid I read the previous review and decided to try it anyway. I can only guess that the reviewer didn't download the software from Logitech. The instructions are ridiculously small, but once I got a magnifying glass, it clearly says you have to download the software and gives you the URL to do so. Once that was done, it worked perfectly on my machine. More (Read full review).

Almost useless I have a Macbook Pro w/Toolbar and when you plug in the dongle my computer freezes and you can no longer use the mouse. The ONLY way to get his to work at all i I have a Macbook Pro w/Toolbar and when you plug in the dongle my computer freezes and you can no longer use the mouse.
The ONLY way to get his to work at all is: 1. Open up the powerpoint presentation you want to use 2. Go into presentation mode 3.
Plug in the dongle (now my Mac locks up) except the presenter can be used but you cannot use your trackpad mouse anymore. The built-in mouse for the remote does not track very well at all. Basically, if you plug the dongle in the USB-C before going into powerpoint your laptop will lock up. At least mine does.

Definately avoid the Logitech Presenter device for your mac. While it can be paired with your built-in bluetooth (you don't need to use the supplied logitech bluetooth usb module), it can only move powerpoint slides forward, the back button will not work. I've tried to contact Logitech about this and no reply so far.
Their OS X software does not work with the Presenter device as well. You can do a search in this forum for Logitech Presenter to read all the details of my experiences with it.
I'd love to find a good presentation remote with built-in laser-pointer. For now I may try to use my cell phone (Sony Ericsson T610). I use a keyspan I'm a trainer so I give quite a few presentations and I've been using the keyspan model without a hitch on a iBook for over a year. The module is not bluetooth ready but there is an integrated laser pointer. The trick is to use the 'jog-like' switch on the side to mimick the mouse clicks. You go up to go back in the presentation and down to go forward (you could reverse the order but that's the one that feels most comfortable/natural to me) I'd definetely recommend it for the price. Besides, the only other model I know of is the logitech which costs around 300$ CDN!!
(I got the keyspan for 75$ CDN) Battery consumption is harsher is you use the laser a lot but the office only had to replace the battery once in 1,5 years (not too shaby!). Salling Clicker for Serious Presentations Hey folks: I, too, have been in the market for a wireless presentation remote and think Salling Clicker could actually be the best solution. I do a lot of presentations and so had a pretty clear sense of what I wanted. My criteria for a remote were as follows: as few pieces of hardware as possible (i.e.

Bluetooth remote better than RF remote with USB adapter), simple to control (i.e. Not a media remote), omnidirectional (i.e. Not an IR remote), reliable, and reasonably priced. While there appeared to be a few bluetooth devices that met this criteria, they all ran about $200 which I can easily afford but seemed overpriced, especially when a good, longer-range USB RF remote runs $70. From an eariler post on this thread I saw the plug of Salling Clicker and have been playing with it for the last hour. I use a Treo 650 and find that not only does Salling Clicker meet all the above criteria (no new hardware, lowest price, etc.) it also has functions that far exceed any other presentation remote.

Because the Salling Clicker software uses my Treo 650 as an intelligent device, on my phone screen I can see the current slide title, notes, overall presention time, use the phone touch screen as a touchpad to move the mouse cursor and so on. Simply having the ability to view my timing and notes (two things for which I could never find a simple, elegant solution in the past) is a huge leap forward for me. A couple of earlier folks commented that you shouldn't use Salling Clicker for mission critical presentations because a phone call will interrupt the software.
I typically turn off my phone for presentations so this is not an issue. Of course, until I've really used the software in a live presentation, all of my above enthusiasm is speculative but I'm very impressed with Salling Clicker (to say nothing of the wicked features for controlling iTunes etc.).

If nothing else, you owe it to yourself to play with the software just to experience the thrill of driving your mac with your phone.
