Hello,
I have a mini Logitech mouse (with USB receiver) and a Logitech S530 Mac keyboard.
I'm trying to connect both to my PC (Win10), the mouse connects perfectly, but I can't get the keyboard to connect.
Can you please help me connect it? Knowing that I don't have a receiver for the keyboard.
Thank you for your responses and advice.

    Hello

    Is it the mouse that came with the keyboard or a different one?
    If it’s not the one from the “kit,” it’s a lost cause; it won’t work.

    Best regards

      Hello and thank you for your quick response,
      The mouse is a Logitech, but not the one from the kit.
      I'm already starting to wonder if this keyboard is "exclusively for Mac or not."

        Technically, the keyboard is not "mac only"; only the drivers will make the difference.
        But no, your mouse's USB "dongle" will not work for the keyboard.
        In principle, a USB dongle goes with a peripheral; they are "synchronized" at the factory or sometimes two.

        Logitech has two technologies: the classic one with the USB dongle + the USB peripheral, and another called "Unified" which allows a USB dongle to be compatible with any other peripheral that is labeled with the "Unified" logo.

        This is not the case with the keyboard you have; it requires the USB that corresponds to the keyboard.

      Thank you again for your help.
      I think that answers my question, and therefore, I note "resolved".
