Q: I just hope this update resolves the REALLY DIFFICULT Bluetooth-affecting-wifi issue. I haven't been able house my beloved Bluetooth mouse ever since El Capitan - or not while connected to the internet. Infuriating!

I so hope today's update resolves the REALLY DIFFICULT El Capitan Bluetooth-affecting-wifi issue. I haven't been able to use my beloved Bluetooth mouse ever since El Capitan - or not while connected to the internet. Infuriating! Lots of people seem to be affected by this issue.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)

    Is your bluetooth mouse an Apple product?

     

    If not, did you go to the maker site to see if

    they have created a new driver for use with

    the newest OS X 10.11.2+ system?

     

    You could use the Apple Feedback to ask that

    this issue be addressed, and supply details...

     

    • Apple Feedback: Product Feedback

     

    With such matters, you may or may not see any

    reply from your contact effort to Apple Feedback.

     

    Good luck & happy computing!

    Thanks KS.

    Sadly yesterday's 10.11.3 didn't resolve the Blue-tooth > wifi issue.

     

    Yes, I have 2 Apple Bluetooth mice, both effected the same.

    It seems to be a very well known El Capitan problem with lots of people complaining to Apple and lots of comments on websites - and of course suggestions but none of them seem to work for those affected. Why everyone isn't affected remains a mystery.

    Lots of us hoped/prayed yesterday's 10.11.3 would fix this bug - but no.

     

    It means that off-line I can use my Apple Blue-toooth mouse/mice but have to switch them off and revert to a clonky wired mouse for the Internet - the same with my Apple Blue-tooth keyboard. It's an absolute pain in the *ss.
