Bluetooth keyboard and mouse - kills my on board trackpad and keyboard.

I have a problem with my on board mouse and keyboard, as they dont want to work due to the bluetooth devices i have paired.
When i restart the MacBookPro only wants to see the bluetooth keyboard and mouse, so i cannot use it without them now, i have tried many fixes but have had no joy.
Any pro's have advice please?

"i have tried many fixes"
Please detail all the things you have done in the way of troubleshooting. This will eliminate the +"been there, done that"+ scenarios when the knowledgeable users here try to help you. Thank you.
You should also cross-post over in the Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse forums. It's where the Bluetooth users hang out at.

  • My Macbook Pro keyboard AND USB keyboard will not work.  However, the trackpad and USB mouse will work.  Any help?

    My Macbook Pro keyboard and USB keyboard will not work.  However, the trackpad and USB mouse will work.  Any help?
    This is quite frustrating, since it randomly occured as I was browsing the web.  It seemed to happen out of nowhere.  I cannot login to my user account because I cannot type my password. 
    Any help will be appreciated.

    If you have another Mac, boot the non-working one into Target Disk Mode (holding down "T" at startup). Hook up the two Macs via a Firewire cable. The non-working one will mount on the other Mac as an external Firewire HD.
    Next, download the 10.5.6 Combo update from here:
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1056comboupdate .html
    Run it. When it asks you for a destination, choose the other Mac that was mounted via Firewire. When it's done, unmount the computer and restart it. The keyboard and mouse should work now.

  • Hi! i recently got a macbook pro 15" retina display, and i tried to play assassin's creed 2 and other games on it, but the thing is, the keyboard keys will not respond except the trackpad, and the keyboard keys work fine outside of gaming.

    Hi! so like i said in the title, i tried to play any game like assassin's creed and minecraft, but the keyboard wont respond but the trackpad does, also i tried restarting reinstalling checking if mouse key is on or off and all that, and it still wont fix this problem.  Outside of gaming though, the keyboard works with no problem. Please help me!

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • N8 Which bluetooth keyboard and mouse ?

    Hi Folks
     I've had a n8 since last october and am ready for a keyboard with a mouse included or maybe a seperate mouse. I do like the idea of a small control I can use that could be the mouse for remote starting and stopping a movie I play via hdmi.
    I did see a ovi app that could control the playing of a movie via a Wi remote. I do like this, havn't tried this.
    Which bluetooth keyboard and maybe bt mouse do you reccomend ?
    options maybe travel
    unsupported on my knee
    in the car , velcro to the steering wheel  / office
    on the table
    I quite like standard key spacing so I don't have to relearn to type.
     what effective range ?
     does it survive the eventual coffee spill ?
     Otherwise great phone I max it out.
    Regards Don

  • I have a 2011 iMac 27" i7 and the bluetooth connected trackpad, keyboard, and mouse all go haywire after awhile. This just began today and cannot make the issue go away. Nothing was downloaded, no software updates, etc. please help!

    Oops, sorry, using my iPad for this. My iMac's Bluetooth-connected devices are going haywire after awhile of use. All three things--the trackpad, keyboard, and mouse--act up, especially the trackpad, by being overly sensitive and often just clicking and moving on its own. I've restarted the computer, I've swabbed batteries out of the devices, and nothing has worked so far in solving this issue. I downloaded Lion when it came out and had the update last week (I think), but today is the first day to experience this issue and nothing was downloaded today. I've been sending out a flurry of emails, but nothing else to hint at why this problem happened. Any ideas??

    Humm, thank you. I have my iPhone and iPad on the wireless network, and yeah--using the rechargable batteries. I'll try normal batteries and re-join the phone and get back to you. May take a day or so because the semester starts today. Thank you again.

  • Boot Camp, Aluminium Bluetooth Keyboard & Mighty Mouse not seen by Windows

    I recently installed bootcamp (win xp pro sp2), and am unable to get windows to recognise my bluetooth keyboard and mouse. they work fine in OSX, and i know that the bluetooth drivers are good in windows because i can connect to my phone. I think the problem may be with pairing them with multiple computers, because while trying to figure out why it wasnt working i attempted to pair the keyboard with my ibook g4, and was unable untill i removed it from my MBP through system prefs. I have searched high and low and havent been able to find a solution, any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks

    What I have had to do, after booting into Windows, is toggle the mouse and keyboard power off and on. After about 3 or 4 seconds, Windows finally "sees" the input devices and everything works fine. It is a pain, I know.

  • Keyboard and mouse freaking out

    on my mac mini g4 1.42 i have an apple keyboard and one button usb mouse with the mouse connected through the keyboard and they keep dying on me.
    example
    i will just be browsing the internets or playing black and white and the mouse will stop working along with the keyboard more often then not it stops responding all together and i have to unplug/plug to get it to work again. I have not had the keyboard just stop on it's own while typing or anything and the mouse pad doesn't seem to make any difference. I have tried using different usb ports and the problem still persists.
    I do not have another keyboard and mouse to try on my mini and while writing this i'm using the same keyboard and mouse on my macbook pro without any problems except for some minor mouse skips.
    Please help this is has gotten to be rather annoying and thank you in advance for your help.

    Hello:
    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC.
    Then trash a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.

  • When I disable my left windows key for gameing using Microsoft keyboard and mouse software, I can no longer type in firefox. How can i fix this?

    Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse Software that you install with Microsoft keyboard and mice, (latest version) allows you to disable your windows key so that you don't accidentally hit it when gaming. When I take advantage of this feature, I can no longer type in Firefox. Typing in Firefox is completely disabled. Other browsers, windows, applications work, but not Firefox. What is it about the windows key that firefox needs for typing. Strange problem, but annoying because I have to use a different browser while game. Certainly not a deal breaker, but kinda strange.

  • Where can I get a keyboard and mouse for a Mac SE?

    I have a 1988 Mac SE but am missing the keyboard and mouse.   Where can I get a keyboard and mouse?

    Welcome!
    "Where to get" inquiries are more easily answered if we know your approximate geographic location. No sense on our sending you to a vendor who does not ship to your location.
    That said, one resource that often works for getting older hardware---regardless of where you live---are Mac User Groups ("MUGs"). This locating page can help you find if there is one near you:

  • Does VM Ware Support Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

    I downloaded VM Ware from Apple.com. I got to my Windows XP Home login screen, but I could not move the mouse to login to the XP Computer. I had to restart the computer by holding down the power button because I was, "stuck." Does anyone out there know if VMWare is compatible with the wireless keyboard and mouse? I'm using Leopard and Windows XP Home SP 2.
    Thanks,

  • Windows 8 keyboard and mouse not working

    After a series of updates my computer booted up with no keyboard or mouse working, This includes both PS2 and USB and several restarts.
    The computer works fine when booted with the windows 8 CD Mice and keyboards are working fine. I don't want to refresh my machine as I have will hours of program reloading to do. This is very frustrating!
    I have been though all the other related topics on this forum, google and bing, noting works so far.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    How would I go about finding what drivers are being used when I boot from the windows dvd?
    I'm not sure.  WMIC?  Look at Panther logs? 
    wmic.exe  sysdriver  |  find /i "keyboard"
    found some of the ones that  msinfo32.exe  lists.   So, in fact, if that works, I suppose you would start there:  msinfo32.exe  Components  Input  Keyboard.  I know that wmic.exe works in Command-only mode
    but I'm not sure about msinfo32.exe.
    There are other possibilities too.  E.g. use regedit.exe for its Load Hive command to compare registry values.
    I wonder if  mskey.exe  can run in that limited boot?  It apparently knows more about keyboards than msinfo32.  That's the diagnostic tool that comes with Microsoft keyboards in case you have it.  Looking at it makes
    me think that registry settings may be more important than the driver module which may make the Load Hive idea a more promising tack to try.
    BTW this looks very similar to something that happened after RTM.  As I understand it, the install threw away all HID drivers, leaving it with none.  I don't know how that problem was fixed ultimately.  Maybe the people that saw it just gave
    up on W8.   ; }

  • Imac 20" keyboard and mouse not working

    Friend has a 20″ imac 2007 usb ports don’t seem to be working can’t use keyboard or mouse, anyone any idea how to get into the system to use a hardware test disc or install disc
    Power seems to be going to the mouse as the red light emits from the bottom.

    has anyone resolved this problem? I haven't been able to get my usb ports to work on my 2007 24" imac. it suddenly stopped responding to keyboard and mouse. during bootup, i can use the keyboard to select boot volume and/or target mode. keyboard and other usb peripherals work fine on other computers. so this indicates that the keyboard is ok, the usb port themselves are ok, but something happens during bootup that causes the computer to stop listening to the usb ports.
    i've tried the smc and pram reset procedures with no luck.

  • Ultraslim wireless keyboard and mouse not working

    Hi ,  I purchased the Lenovo Ultraslim Wireless Keyboard & Mouse (pn: 57Y4700) about 4 months ago for use with my T60 laptop (which i use with a docking station and large lenovo monitor at work).
    Everything was woking fine until last Monday when I can into work after the weekend and neither the mouse or keyboard worked. I replaced the batteries in both, rebooted the machine several time, switch the USB ports for the nano receiver, but nothing seems to have worked.
    I looked online for troubleshooting options, but did not find anything.
    The mouse and keyboard don't seem to have a "sych" button - if I recall correctly everything worked right out of the box.
    My theory is that the nano reciever was damaged (not sure how) -- but don't know how to proceed:
    can the nano reciever be replaced;
    any other options to troubleshoot;
    any chance that this could be a software problem
    Thanks

  • For some reason My Imac will not wake up with bluetooth Trackpad or keyboard from being in sleep mode over night.

    During the day it wakes up fine. this just happens on over night. I can press the power button on the Imac and screen wakes up but my trackpad or keyboard will not work. After I Restart my Imac by holding down the power button until it shuts down and then pressing to power back on it works right away. this starting happening about a week after Lion upgrade

    I've been dealing with the same issue of not waking up from sleep.  For a long while, I turned off the option entirely just so I wouldn't get mad at my computer.  The difference with my setup, however, is that I use a USB keyboard w/ a USB mouse.  I tried most the "solutions" that I've come across on these boards.  What upsets me the most is the vast number of similar posts without a clear answer.
    Anyways, since I use wired keyboard and mouse, I just turned bluetooth off on this computer and tried once more to wake it from sleep.  Surprisingly, it worked.  My suggestion, try a wired keyboard and mouse with Bluetooth disabled on the computer.
    Edit: I spoke too soon.  On the second attempt, it did not wake.  For reference, that one single time that it woke up was the only time I've ever had my computer's display wake from sleep mode (like many, the computer wakes, but the display won't).
    Here's to hoping that whatever is causing the problem is not around in Lion.
