Setting up bluetooth with magic mouse and trackpad
in both Windows and Mac Dual boot
In Windows first download:
The latest version of PTools from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s…/bb896649.aspx, this will
allow you to edit your registry as System
later, allowing you to edit your bluetooth device link
keys.
Bootcamp drivers for both Magic
Mouse and the Magic Trackpad (you can get
these from http://www.trackpadmagic.com or follow the guide there for
installation of Bootcamp 4.0 drivers using 7-zip 4.65 and
BootCampESD.pkg Mouse and Trackpad utilities from:
http://www.trackpadmagic.com).
Install PTools (put files in
System Drive:\Windows\System32).
Install the drivers for both the trackpad and the magic
mouse.
As you would ordinarily, connect both the trackpad and
magic mouse via bluetooth (Add Device
etc…).
Once installed, right-click and select Properties for
either one of the devices and go to the Bluetooth tab, take a
note of the Unique Identifier near the bottom of the page under
Troubleshooting Information (this will be noted as a series
of letters and numbers, eg. 1a:b2:c3:45:67:8d). You will need this
later to identify your device in Regedit.
Restart your machine and boot into Mac.
Back to the Mac:
Connect to either your magic trackpad or mouse as
usual via blueooth
Open terminal and copy-paste the following command
and hit enter:
Take a note of the link key that this will then give you, this will
be a series of letters and numbers formatted for OS.
You will need to reverse these for use in Windows.
Below is an example:
Mac: 12345ab6 78c91234 567891d2 3456789e
Windows: 9e785634 d2917856 3412c978 b65a3412
Now connect to your other device and carry out the same procedure to
get the link key for that device.
Reboot into Windows, neither of your devices will
work yet, but fret not!
Open the command line tool as an
Administrator.
psexec -s -i regedit
Hit enter, regedit will now open with full access
to the keys you need.
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\servic es\BTHPORT\Parameters\Keys\Unique ID
You will see a list of devices in the right-side pane, you can
determine which is your trackpad or mouse by using the
Unique Identifiers you noted earlier in step 5, right-click on
the relevant device and now click Modify Binary Data…
and type in the appropriate link key for your device (the link key
that you changed into the correct Windows format in
step 9)
Do this for each device.
Exit regedit, click your magic mouse and
your trackpadand hey-presto, they’ll start working!
Reboot and they’ll still be bonded and working for
Mac!
