Targus Bluetooth Laser Mouse Rechargeable Battery Trouble

I read this is a mouse that runs on batteries not a cable. "Targus AMW05US Wireless Optical Mouse, Black/Silver, Rechargeable, Wireless freedom RF wireless technology provides a clean, uncluttered workspace free from cables" http://salestores.com/targusam.html?gclid=CJS-nLn0pMcCFVOQHwod2AYJ4w#.VcvzQf3bK7g

Here's a guide;
What do the battery lights mean on my mouse? Some keyboard and mouse models feature a battery light that shows the current status of the batteries. The following table describes the different lights and states.
Light
Device Model Status Single long green blink Rechargeable Batteries are good. This occurs when batteries are first installed or every time that the device is turned on. Slow green blink Rechargeable Device is docked in the charging station and is charging properly. Steady green Rechargeable Device is docked in the charging station and does not need additional charging. Steady green Presenter Mouse (Japanese version) Laser pointer is on. Red/green blink Wireless Device is discoverable (trying to connect to the transceiver). Slow red blink Non-rechargeable Batteries are low and need to be replaced. Slow red blink Rechargeable Batteries are low and need recharging. Fast red blink Rechargeable Device is docked in the charging station, but there is a charging error.
Reasons for errors: The wrong type of battery is installed; the battery or batteries are missing; or the battery connection is bad.
Solutions: Make sure that the correct battery or batteries are installed, and are installed correctly. If necessary, remove the batteries, wipe them with a clean cloth, and reinsert them. Steady red Presenter Mouse (Standard version) Laser pointer is on.

On the Top on the Mouse u can see the Battery u need to Remove the old Battery's and Replace with New battery see that you use Rechargeable battery because ordinary battery life spam is very less and u need to change the batterys for every 1 month so if u use the rechargeable battery then u need not change battery for 1 month at least for 5 or 6 months the rechargeable battery work and u can keep and spare rechargeable battery when every needed and try to purchase a Sony Rechargeable batterys

Rechargeable batteries do expire after a while either get new ones or get a battery tester to see how much life they have left. under normal circumstances a new set of batteries last me about two weeks before i have to recharge them and my computer stays on 24/7 including the mouse with at least 5 or more hours of use per day.

Mine was fine at first but now it does the same as yours. I suspect the rechargeable battery needs replacing but I can't find anywhere in the world that sells them separatey to the mouse :-(

Mice usually don't use rechargeable batteries.
I would recommend you use a good quality alkaline battery.

The reciever is poorly designed. The green and/or white wires are probably broken on the inside.(pins 2 and 3)

I had the same problem and it turned out that it had nothing to do with the batteries.

Go to the bluetooth indicator on your computer and disable the device. Then restart your computer.

When the computer is restarted set the mouse into "discoverable mode" which is the flashing red/green thing and it should find your computer.

This worked for me!

go online and type in the address bar:

The mouse worked initially....have you tried doing a system restore back to a few weeks ago to see if that solves the problem..
With Vista and so many of it's incompatibility issue's...you maybe have downloaded something and it corrupted your software for that mouse...

Here is the url with vista drivers. Redownload the drivers and install...see if this helps
