I have exactly this issue with my new RAT 7 under 10.6.8.  AFAIK I have no other drivers installed.  I have nothing in the control panel, I just had a generic Dell USB mouse plugged in and AFAIK I installed no software.  I have installed 1.1.42 software.  I only have a few days to RMA this as it is currently useless.  Please respons ASAP.

After talking with the live support, he sent me a driver witch did not solve the issue.
I tried the mouse on different configuration:
Desktop PC - Win7: Working
MacBook Air - Lion: Bugged
MacBook Pro Retina - Lion OR Mountain Lion DP4/GM: Bugged
MacBook Pro Retina under Windows 7: Working
All computers where freshly formatted.

Mac driver tested: 1.1.30 and 1.1.42.

Video of the problem: http://cl.ly/3w220X3r0V141E0R191Y

I would be pleased to help the debs/support to solve this issue, as many Mac Users are having this problem (numerous tickets open on Apple Discussion Support)

I bought the Rat 7 some weeks ago and did not encounter problems until now recently. Running Lion by the way. The "Status Bar"-icon disappeared and whenever I try to toggle it in the Preferences-pane, it crashes. Not the editor, but Preferences... Also the editor gets weird at random: When viewing the Programming tab, the options display numbers instead of Scroll Button and Scroll left and so on. Tried reinstalling 5 times but doesn't work.

Hoping for update or help

Good day.

I was one of the guys informing awhile ago of issue with mountain lion.

The latest version of your app 1.1.45 beta.
I'm not getting the issues from the past so useable now (steer-mouse was my suggestion to you guys in the past for the time being)

Any how i've run into a few things that don't work in this app.
1. Battery percentage shows 0
2. DPI settings don't work
3. precision aim doesn't work
4. Command test does not work.

I had no problems with my lovely new MMO7 in Mac OS X Lion, but when I installed Mountain Lion this week, even my Apple mouse did not work correctly with the dock. I thought the problem was with the dock, opened a ticket with Apple Support, got no help there, reinstalled Mountain Lion today. The dock worked properly for several seconds, then reverted to being broken.

My tiny brain went "Aha!". Something finished loading and screwed up the way mouse and dock function together. Checked your site, downloaded and installed the beta 1.1.43.mpkg after having uninstalled your 1.1.28 software and rebooted. The problem disappeared!

Many thanks, you crazed kittens! All is now well again. Your efforts are much appreciated. You get a thumbs up for this version of your Mac software. You're definitely on the right track. I enjoy the heck out of being able to use my MMO7 in SWTOR in Boot Camp and WoW Mountain Lion.

My suggestion to all who have been having similar troubles is to install Cyborg's latest Mac beta. It worked like a charm for me!

Hi, My RAT3's function buttons do not work in Mountain Lion OS. I have programmed perfectly and I can use them in "test" mode. I have installed "Cyborg RAT Driver 1.1.43.mpkg", could you please help me?

Hi, Im experiencing the same issue as Yendi, the first commenter.
There is an issue with hovering. I cant have the mouse fully functioned.
Im using early 2012 MBA, with Lion OS(10.7.4). Its really annoying..

without clues, its working fine in bootcamp window 7 but not in my main OS.

Hi

I have a problem with the acceleration of my R.A.T. 5 in Mac OS X 10.6.8.
I have recently installed the new 1.1.45 Beta Drivers. I do not have anymore hover issues.

The mouse operates perfectly in Windows.

However, the mouse functions in alignment with the Mac acceleration which I then killed using the Kill Mouse Accel app. (You can achieve the same by killing the acceleration in the Terminal).
After seemingly killing the acceleration (my Magic Mouse works correctly and shows no signs of acceleration), the R.A.T. 5 mouse operates somewhat strangely. For instance, when moving the cursor slowly, it will jump every once in a while. After some testing, it now seems the cursor moves with inverted acceleration: that is, it moves more quickly when moving the mouse slowly. The inprecision of the cursor when moving slowly is maddening, especially when the precision on the Windows side of my machine is perfect.

Any advice? ( I have tried USB Override, Mouse Curves, and some other System plug-ins to no avail).

Best,

Bryce

I have the cyborg rat 7 infection, and i just installed beta 1.1.43 on my macbook air that is running on Mac OSX 10.7.4 and i'm having the hover issue. Makes Diablo 3 pretty much unplayable,..... any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you. Mouse is working fine in windows 7.

I have R.A.T. 5 Gaming Mouse that I use on Win7 pro and Mac OSX Lion.

I absolutely love it on my Win7 PC and I hate it on my Mac. Mac drivers are HORRIBLE!!! Mouse behaves like very, very cheap wireless mouse with significant and VERY annoying "rubber band" like lag effect! It is almost unusable on my mac (Mac Mini, i5 (Mid 2011), 16GB RAM, OSX Lion). Thank you for fixing Precision Aim Button.. at least now is somewhat usable but far cry from the Win7 experience.

Can you guys please fix this!?

The main reasons I bought this mouse are performance, ergonomics and quite large middle (wheel) button that I use on regular basis for 3D programs like Maya and 3ds Max.

Apologise for the rant in advance, but I'm REALLY annoyed and disappointed! - I purchased the Rat 5 believing it to be a superior gaming mouse, checked the box and it had Mac logo on it - so I believed OSX was supported. Installed the software. Profile Edit will not accept profiles - click the + button and nothing happens. The movement of the pointer is all over the place in OS X - even browsing with Safari is weird -  Why do you release hardware and software that does not work! I have a 10 year old Dell Ball mouse (no lazer) that's more accurate that this. How do I get my money back. Should have went with reliable Logitech.

I have tryed all versions of the driver and software that i can find on the net. and well I'm sad to say NONE of them worked for me. fresh install of 10.6.8 - 10.7.5 - 10.8.1 and I can get nothing to work..

I have been to my mates and he has 3 iMacs doing nothing so i tested it on them all.. NOTHING!!!

I'm not to happy that its advertised for mac yet I have not managed to get it to work..
I'm currently using USBoverdrive as its the only thing I have found that lets me use the mouse..
The problem with USBoverdrive is the precession aim don't work like it should and it now just another button to use. so i have the coolest mouse ever that don't work as well as the £5 mouse i have.. so sad.
the only bit of the mouse that works like the box said is the dpi changer.

Would LOVE to get this working like it should. have tryed this in win7 and it works like it should

I purchased a R.A.T. 7 mouse probably 8-10 months ago, which stated it was mac compatible. Unfortunately compatible and fully functional are two very different things. I have been checking in from time to time to see if any updates have fixed the issues I have been having but none have made any difference.  The issue I am having is when I start up my computer the mouse's "hover" ability is non responsive (whenever I hover over things the computer does not recognize where my cursor is. For whatever reason if I unplug the mouse and then plug it back in it seems to fix all the issues (programmed buttons begin working, precision aim works, and the hover functionality is restored). I have an iMac and it is quite annoying to have to do this every time I restart my computer. I also have clean macbook air I only use for taking tests and I get the same issues when I use the mouse on this computer. I have Lion installed on both computers.

Hello. I am attempting to use the MMO7 on my 15" retina MBP running Mac OSX Mountain Lion, with 1.1.60, which I believe is the most recent software to date. The clicks and scroll wheel work fine, but the cursor does not move. Has anyone had a similar issue and found a way to resolve it? Any help would be appreciated

Driver 1.1.59beta seems to be working for me. Mac OS X 10.8.2. Mouse is finally hovering again! Needed to unplug and replug the mouse after installing the driver but everything seems okay now, except for yet another useless and annoying icon in my menu-bar. Thanks.

This one seems to works perfetly, even if the current 'normal' version (from : www.cyborggaming.com/fr/download.htm) doesn't work at all.

I'm running on Mac OS 10.8.2 Mountain Lion.

Please make keyboards usable on Mac OS X too, and fix that up for everybody

I bought a RAT 3 thinking that it would be nice to have a mouse with up to date software for my Mac. After down loading the software and plugging in the mouse, the curser moved in slow motion pushing the various buttons got it working fairly well. I went looking to see if there was a window to set the buttons like my old Razor mouse and came up with nothing. Spent hours checking web sites to discover what I was doing wrong.

Finally sent an email to the tech department and got "Tick 'Enable access for assistive devices' in the Universal Access pane of System Preferences and this will solve the issue." which the tech guy must have cut and pasted from the web site, which I had read before sending the email. No, this did not fix anything and was not helpful. He did not read my email which was obvious.

Went back to Best Buy and talked to one of their Geek Guys and was told " the mouse works with Mac BUT you can't program the buttons".  WHAT! A programable mouse that you can't program, great! Returned it. What a waste of time. Back to my Razor that is programable even has a window to work from, what an idea.

Just bought a RAT7 and am fuming, does not work with my new iMac.
no other drives install, fresh from factory booted up and Hovering over menus and dock does not work at all. Going back to Razor mice, dont know why I bothered to try something different.

Just bought a RAT 7 today and installed the latest software 1.1.60 and it won't recognize the mouse at all. No way for me to make any adjustments. The profile manager shows no device found. Extremely frustrated with this product.

Should I just return it?
