ThinkPad Bluetooth 6.5.1.2700 apparently causes mouse to stop working

Since updating to ThinkPad Bluetooth software 6.5.1.2700 on July 28, 2012, my ThinkPad Bluetooth mouse will stop working after using it for several hours. Disabling power management in Bluetooth does not seem to solve the problem. Please provide a download link to the prior version of ThinkPad Bluetooth software until this issue is resolved. Thank you.

I've now gone back to ThinkPad Bluetooth software 6.4.0.2900

The problem has not recurred since reverting to ThinkPad Bluetooth software 6.4.0.2900 :smileyhappy:

JNavas,

 

Thank you for posting the workaround for this, I sent a message to the folks at Lenovo to see if they are aware of any problems.

For the most part, Lenovo is pretty quick with fixes to driver errors when notified, so it may be corrected sometime soon. If I am made aware of an update, I'll certainly post it here or send you a PM.

 

Cheers, and thanks again for making us aware of the problem you're having.

 

Ed

 

*Edit* fixed my grammAr :smileyvery-happy:
