Lost my Bluetooth connection (no wireless keyboard or touchpad).

I've just updated to 10.6.8 and lost my Bluetooth connection (no wireless keyboard or touchpad). How do I get it back?
I went to About this Mac and under Bluetooth it says No information found. However, before the update, both the keyboard and pad worked fine.

You are welcome.

    How can i connect a Wireless Keyboard and a Trust mouse to a brand new Mac mini?

    Go to the Bluetooth icon on the menu bar and select "Set Up Bluetooth Device". Follow the wizard.
    Alternatively, if you haven't yet unboxed and setup the Mini, you can pair the keyboard to the Mini (and possibly the mouse). However, I would set up with a USB keyboard and mouse and pair the Bluetooth devices afterwards.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    There probably isn't a lot you can do, since the router settings will be beyond your control. Many such services in hotels and the like, use a system whereby you need to login through a webpage, since the Apple TV cannot display webpages, there is no way around this. You would probably be best asking at reception if this is the case.

  • Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it works automatically with either macbook pro or iPad depending on which is turned on or do I have to go through the delete one and re-pair the other process every time?

    Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it automatically connects to whichever previously paired device is turned on?

  • Problems with bluetooth connection to wireless mouse and keyboard

    I am using a mac book (aluminium) with 10.6.4 with a Cinema Display and a wireless keyboard and mouse. My time capsule is located only 1 meter away from the mac book and every time the automatic sync starts my mouse and keyboard do not repsond anymore. It seems that the bluetooth connection is somehow heavily loaded due to the network traffic. I have updated all devices and restarted the computer several times. It always keeps on doing that. Any help?

    what you are seeing is called _*wireless interference*_.
    change the channel your TC broadcasts on.

  • How to connect to wireless keyboard

    new iMac fails to connect to either wireless keyboard or mouse... any hints on how to proceed?

    First, a basic question...
    Do you have blue tooth swithched on? You can check at System Preferences/Bluetooth. You will need it switched on for the devices toconnect.

    Hello Jogon,
    I am guessing but I think that this is how it is and that the ipod connects to perhaps a wireless keyboard or headphones but not other bluetooth devices such as my other non apple mobile phones? I was going to transfer photos across etc
    Yes that is correct. See this Apple support document to view which iPod models support what kinds of Bluetooth profiles.

  • Logitech mouse started to lag after connecting Apple Wireless Keyboard

    Hi,
    I'm using Logitech Anywhere MX mouse with Logitech unifiying reciever on my iMac and everything was working perfectly fine until I have
    recently bought an Apple Wireless Keyboard. For some reason after connecting the keyboard to my iMac my mouse started to lag.
    I'm not sure how this is connected to each other as keyboard is bluetooth and mouse is wifi but at this stage I wish that my cable keyboard
    would never broke.
    My whole Mac OS X software is up to date and so are the Logitech drivers (Control Center). Is any of the users expriencing such issues ?
    Any advices ?
    Regards,
    Jakub

    Thank you for your reply, I have repaired the device but it didn't helped, but switching USB ports seems to do the work, although not sure why Anyways - thank you very much!

  • Why can't I connect my wireless keyboard?

    I'm at my wits end. I bought an Apple wireless keyboard for my Intel Macbook and can't make it "discoverable", or indeed, hook it up at all. I go thru the Prefs set-up but when it reaches the page where it has to find the keyboard the gear just spins eternally and never finds the keyboard, despite that it has new Duracells, and the "on" button is pushed. I tried touching a keyboard key as suggested - nothing! Once, the keyboard did actually show up in the "discover device" page and I highlighted it and "continued", but the next page was no better - it stalled there too.
    What am I doing wrong? I'm ready to throw the GD thing into the East River!

    HellO:
    You failed to mention in your first post that the KB was paired with your phone.  A Bluetooth device may only be paired/connect to one device at a time.  You will have to delete it (I have no clue how you would do that with a phone) from the iPhone and then connect it to the computer.

  • Lose connection with wireless keyboard/ mouse

    I'm using 10.9.1 and continually losing the connection with the wireless keyboard or the bluetooth mouse. I've changed the batteries. I've gone to System Preferences, clicked on keyboard and used the assistant to re-connect. But why is this happening at least every 3 days.  First the keyboard. Then the mouse.
