Evoluent D benefits from all the great features of its predecessors, with a few added design flares to keep your mouse hand better-supported and comfier than ever. True to form, Evoluent D is a vertical mouse that encourages your hand and forearm into a neutral handshake position to avoid unhealthy twisting.

The patented shape supports your hand in a fully upright handshake position that eliminates forearm twisting. Many users said earlier models relieved their hand, wrist, or arm painUSB only; not compatible with PS2 adapters. May be compatible with some USB KVM switches but it is not guaranteed.
The receiver may be suffering from signal interference due to proximity to other USB devices or cables. Use another USB port farther away from other USB devices or plugs, or use an USB extension to position the receiver even farther away. Comfortable and easy to use - The shape is thoughtfully sculpted for uncompromising comfort and easy-to-reach programmable buttons. No finger contortions are needed to operate the buttons. Before connecting Evoluent VerticalMouse, go to the Applications folder to find and remove any existing Evoluent Mouse Manager and any other mouse software, except touchpad drivers, to avoid software conflict. Bluetooth and Mac models are compatible only with Mac computers. They are not compatible with the Bluetooth in Windows computers. A hand 7.0″ / 178 mm or smaller from the tip of the middle finger to the nearest crease on the wrist may be more comfortable with the small models. Pointer Speed Switch:VerticalMouse 4 Right Mac and Bluetooth models do not have receivers. They connect to Mac computers via the computers’ built-in Bluetooth function. Rapidly Blinking Lights I am sure that Evoluent could bring their own team of experts to declare this theory incoherent nonsense, and perhaps they would be right. I myself never experienced such issues during the time when I was an Evoluent user (though I still prefer Contour’s Perfit mouse for other reasons). One thing on which I think virtually everyone would agree is that the Evoluent mouse is a huge ergonomic step up from the mouse that probably came with your computer. Finger grime accumulation Wireless USB receiver requires a full-size USB port. Computers with only USB C ports require an adapter (not included). Bluetooth does not require a USB port. Programmability:
If pointer movement is unreliable, use an extension cable to position the receiver farther away from other USB plugs or devices.
Trackballs: Minimizing Certain Movements
Wired and wireless USB models are compatible with Mac computers as well as Windows, Linux and Unix computers. Earlier models have an illuminated logo that cannot be turned off. Later models may be turned off this way: Mac and Bluetooth versions of the VerticalMouse 4 require this pairing procedure before driver installation: Pointer speed indicators - The logo is pure eye candy. The illumination turns off when the system is in sleep mode to conserve notebook battery power.
The mouse has default functions without a driver. Evoluent Mouse Manager for Mac may be installed to program the buttons and adjust the pointer speed. If it cures your carpal tunnel, this is hardly a big enough problem to worry about, but I would still love to hear an explanation for why it is such a grime magnet. The driver of the getaway car Windows enables the mouse to wake the computer from sleep by moving it. The setting is in Control Panel, Device Manager, Mice and other pointing devices, Evoluent VerticalMouse, Power Management. Available in two sizes - to find your personal mouse size, measure the length from the crease of your wrist to the tip of your middle finger: Early computer mice had three buttons but no wheel. When the wheel was introduced, it doubled as the middle button since horizontal mice are not wide enough for three buttons and a wheel.
Goldtouch Semi-Vertical Wireless Mouse
The shortcut on the top row are supported by Windows. They may not work in other operating systems. The Evoluent vertical mouse (or a previous generation of it) is one of the very few ergonomic mice that I’ve actually used, day-to-day, for more than a week or so. Unfortunately, that period of “more than a week” was before my previous review, and thus is currently about six years in the past. During that time, I recall the previous-generation Evoluent being quite handy and nice to use, largely due to its well-designed and stable driver (on which more in a moment). Apple Mac® OS X 10.5 to 10.14• Includes Mac driver for configuring the buttons. The driver is optional but highly recommended. VerticalMouse still has basic functionality without the driver. Some functions of the Windows driver are not available in the Mac driver. Extra large Teflon glide pads on the bottom last for the life of the mouse. Small glide pads on other mice may wear out much faster. Cable Length:
