    I'm using a Logitech MX1000 wireless USB mouse in a Windows XP VM. I have the latest Logitech drivers installed in OS X, and all buttons work fine while in OS X. In the Parallels XP VM, only the left-click works. When I click the right mouse button, it sends a left-click to the VM. None of the other buttons work at all. I need at least the right-click to work, and having the other buttons would be a nice bonus.

    Any help you can offer is appreciated.

    In the Logitech OS X control center set the Right Click to be Button #2. I've done this with my MX400 and it works fine in both OS X and XP in Parallels.

    I had simular problems with my Logitech G5. I installed then USB Overdrive and it works fine.

    I can even customize the Speed buttons (I used speed up for Copy and speed down for Past)

    That was indeed the solution! (How could it have been that simple, and why was that not the default setting?!)

    Many thanks!

    I second USB Overdrive, works great. For some reason the LCC won't see my mouse at all and insists no Logitech devices are connected. Probably because it's a combo wireless keyboard/mouse and is really a Windows keyboard.

    But once I got USB Overdrive installed for the mouse and DoubleCommand installed for the keyboard, this setup rocks!
