I am being asked to setup my keyboard every time I reboot my computer. Is there anyway I can get this to keep the setup?

I am on Snow Leopard and have a Logitech Wave wireless keyboard and mouse combo. This started happening when I switched to 64-bit mode. Booting into 32-bit mode doesn't fix it.

Is it a bluetooth keyboard? And does this Apple link support.apple.com/kb/TA23441?viewlocale=en_US by chance help at all? – Vervious Aug 24 '10 at 23:38
No, it has it's own receiver. – Mike Wills Aug 25 '10 at 13:43

Um, standard "stock" fixes:

  • Repair permissions
  • Check logs
  • Erase (Logitech) software and reinstall

You could also see if it is actually saving the connection details (by finding the pref file) or it is unable to.

Repairing permissions seemed to work! Thanks! – Mike Wills Aug 27 '10 at 13:32

Repair permissions: Run Disk Utility; select your (main) disk; click Repair Disk Permissions

Viewing logs: Run Console
