Hello.

Today I upgraded my Mac Mini to MacOS Sequoia and in this connection have installed the Logi Options+ program as I have a Logitech MX Keys for Mac and a Logitech MX Master 3S mouse.

But for some reason my shortcuts on the mouse will not work in either Safari or Chrome, they completely ignore the shortcuts I have chosen and immediately use the ones built into MacOS.

For example, I would like the button just above the wheel to show all open windows but when I press the button it just changes the wheel from smooth scroll to ratchet and I would like the wheel itself to zoom on websites but when I press on that it just opens whatever I press on, so none of it works?

Are there others experiencing this problem and possibly know how i can make it work? I've been looking for a way to turn off the common functions of MacOS but can't immediately find anything that works.
 
UPDATE:
Well, never mind, I solved the "problem" myself...

In the Logi Options+ app under the mouse settings, there was a small Safari and Chrome icon at the top of the app which I completely overlooked. When I hover the mouse over these icons, a small description appeared which described that if I removed the 2 apps Logi Options+ standard settings for the 2 apps would disappear, so I did that and the settings I have set on the mouse worked immediately.

So it was Logi Options+ itself that stood in the way of its own functions :D

I hope one day it might help someone who might also overlook that "feature" :D
 
LogiOptions+ allows you to customize shortcuts per app. That's what the two Safari and Chrome icons were for. They must have had different shortcuts assigned than the global ones, and is why your global shortcuts didn't work.

The other solution would have been to update the shortcuts for those applications to do what you wanted. For example, you could have the mouse wheel only zoom in/out when in Safari, but still have it be the standard scrolling action everywhere else (or do something different in a different app).
