    I want to use a wireless mouse with my Mac Air laptop but the only mouse I have available right now is a Mejec USB wireless mouse for PC. Can I install this on the Parallels side? I haven't been able to find any drivers for the Mac side.

    When you plug it in does it prompt to connect it to either the Mac or the VM? If it does then select the VM.

    It won't work in Mac OS X though only in the guest OS

    It actually doesn't give me the choice like when I plug in other USB things but I go into DEVICES and make it Windows and it still won't see it.

    That's odd. Have you tried connecting it directly to a PC to verify the dongle is working still?

    Yes, my girlfriend is using it right now in her PC. I'll try some other things this afternoon when I get home.
