Question 1

will this work with windows 10, and is it a refurbished?

Accepted Answer

Joyce,
Newegg asked me to answer your question since I bought one. 
I use this trackball and I have windows 10.  
I don't know if it's refurbished.  Mine said NIB (new in box) on it. 
you'll have to ask the seller.

Question 2

would this work with windows 8?

Accepted Answer

This works fine with Windows 8.   I have 3 of these trackballs and they have worked with whatever operating system I'm using.

Question 3

which button do you use for right click?

Accepted Answer

Right click is the same as on a regular mouse (the button on the right side of the middle scroll wheel).

Question 4

Does the scroll wheel also act as the middle button like on most Logitech mouse or the Microsoft trackball?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  The scroll wheel is also a middle button.  I use it all the time.

Question 5

can i use multiple trackman wireless within the same room?

Accepted Answer

I cannot confirm for sure, but I would suspect you could--I have used a wireless kybd (the same logitech unify system) on one machine while using the wireless trackball on a different machine (it is basically an automated bluetooth format).  There is software management available, but is not needed to use the device normally.  I have used it with a laptop that has a crappy touchpad--and been very happy.  It is lightweight, so I carried it around in my backpack all of the time without any trouble.  Good operation, both trackball and buttons.  Remarkably good on the battery front too.

Question 6

is this mouse truly off-table? I find that the only way to go !

Accepted Answer

Yes, you could have placed on your leg for instance or on literally an uneven surface and still have full motion and control. The grips under the mouse also help provide excellent friction so you could have it placed on angled surfaces without it sliding off. The trackball takes getting used to but it’s very efficient and potentially much faster than a regular mouse once your comfortable with it without the fatigue

Question 7

Can this mouse connect to native bluetooth receivers in devices (i.e. tablet, laptop, desktop, ext.)?

Accepted Answer

NO, need USB for receiver

Question 8

I am senior with shaky hands and need mouse corded to use on elements 12 photo shop?
Thanks

Accepted Answer

Okay, to begin this mouse is not corded. Nor do I think it would be ideal for shaky hands. After using it I found it a bit more challenging to be persice with my thumb then if I was using a laser mouse. Although I do love this mouse I find it a bitter geared towards gaming, everyday browsing and maybe photo editing but with a shaky thumb it could get difficult

Question 9

Can this be used with Linux?

Accepted Answer

I have used this with both Ubuntu or Arch Linux, and I've never had a problem.

Question 10

Will it work with windows8?

Accepted Answer

It works with my Windows 8.1 OS on a homebuilt intel machine with no hiccups.  Just follow the directions and plugged the transmitter into a usb port, everything else was automatic.
