Hi,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

I understand your HP S500 Wireless Mouse is not working. Let’s go through a few steps to check what could be causing this.

Check the batteries
Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly and have sufficient charge.
Replace them with fresh batteries if necessary.

Power on the mouse
Ensure the mouse power switch is turned ON.
Some models have an LED indicator to confirm it’s powered.

Check the USB receiver/dongle
Make sure the USB receiver is securely plugged into your computer.
Try a different USB port if the mouse is not responding.

Reconnect the mouse
If your mouse uses a pairing button, press it to re-establish the connection with the USB receiver.
Wait a few seconds for the mouse to be detected.

Test on another computer
Connect the mouse to a different PC or laptop to confirm whether the issue is with the mouse or your computer.

Update drivers
Go to Device Manager → Mice and other pointing devices, right-click the mouse, and select Update driver.
You can also download the latest drivers from HP’s support site.

Check for interference
Ensure there are no other wireless devices nearby that might cause interference.
Keep the mouse and receiver within a reasonable range.

I hope this helps.
