I've tried everything to get the Bluetooth mouse on my quadstick to work.  I always use it when I am in the Xbox controller mode.  I've tried all of the suggestions and went through them properly, but no luck.

Does anybody know what is wrong?  Any suggestions would be great, thank you!

Did work, then stopped working?

Send in a debugging report with QMP:
  1. Plug the Quadstick into the PC
  2. Start QMP
  3. Wait 20 seconds
  4. Click in the Transcript pane at the bottom of the window.
  5. Press F1 key
  6. Answer prompt to send in the debugging report
  7. EXIT QMP.  Ignore any error message.
  8. Send me an email so I know to go look for the report.

OK, I sent the report.  Also, it's like the quadstick does not see the BT Mouse sheet in the spreadsheet.  It skips over it like it's not even there. I have 9 total sheets in the Google spreadsheet for my iRacing simulator.  The last one is BT Mouse, except for the preferences one.  Including the preferences tab there are 9 tabs for the sheets. I know the quadstick does not go to the preferences tab. But, when I count how many sheets are in the quadstick by scrolling through them with the side tube, I only get 7 instead of 8.  Once I get to the 7th sheet, I try to go to the next sheet and it just takes me back to the beginning.

Thanks, Fred!

I set up a quadstick with your configs and with the bluetooth set up as combo, and default.csv mode 12 worked as a bluetooth mouse, so we know it CAN work.

I then loaded in your iRacing XBox 360 Road and the last mode would not work.  It skipped right over it the way you described.   WTF?

I looked at the CSV file with Notepad and finally spotted the problem:  The keyword "Profile Name" in cell A1 contained an extra space " Profile Name".  I deleted the space character and it started working.  Somehow in the history of copying these mode sheets around, an extra space crept in there.

So, the fix is to open https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g62t6GQIx1jY8ImZVjoJyS5DMkLeAtXXRVKBS2eBJV0/edit?gid=1473203947#gid=1473203947 and remove the leading space from " Profile Name" in cell A1, then re-download the CSV file.

hey, Fred!  Thanks a lot for your help.  It's working perfect.  I always forget to check the profile name and make sure everything in there is good.  Have a good one! I really appreciate it.
