Magic Trackpad is not pairing with my Mac Pro

Hello.
I just got a new Mac. It worked with the trackpad for a while, but then I picked up the trackpad and I was holding down the side button without knowing it. It lost connection with the Mac and now I cannot re-connect it.
I have no idea if it is turned on or off.
Also, when I go to Bluetooth and delete and re-add it as a device, the Mac can see it (which means that it is on), but it fails to pair every time. I've tried this 5 or 6 times.
I rebooted the Mac, and I even deleted the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file and started from scratch. It still sees the device but refuses to pair.
Help!!

Try these in this order to see if one of them fixes your problems: (1) SMC reset, (2) PRAM reset, and (3) reset BT to factory settings.  Re-pair after doing these of course.

    The iPhone supports only a limited number of profiles and will only pair with a computer for internet sharing (tethering, hotspot if your cellular carrier plan supports that). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647

  • My magic mouse  does not pair with my mac mini   help please

    i get a error message pairing unsuccessful  i have paired it ok with my Macbook AIr ok

    If the mouse is paired with the Air, you will need to delete from there before it will pair wiht the mini.  Bluetooth devices may be only paired with one thing at a time.

  • My Apple blue tooth keyboard will not pair with my mac mini

    My Apple wireless keyboard was paired with my Mac Mini. It is no longer paired. I have put in new Batteries. I have pressed the button on the top right hand section of the keyboard, the green led lights up briefly. The Blue Tooth set up assistant appears on screen and searches for the keyboard. I has brifly seen it but does not make a connection. The Magic moose is doing the same thing.

    Hi Darrell,
    If your Apple Bluetooth and keyboard are not paring to your Mac Mini, then take a look at the article below to walk you through some general troubleshooting to get it to pair and start working again. If you have not done so already, try looking form anything could be causing interference like cordless phones as well and thing metal between the keyboard and the Mac Mini.

    Thank you for your post.
    It seems it is a known issue from Microsoft, see here. I suggest you get in touch with them so they can provide you with the relevant drivers.

  • Magic trackpad will not pair

    I have OS 10.8.3 with a magic trackpad. I removed USB overdrive and trashed my bluetooth preferences and still I can not get the trackpad to pari. Followed the instructions from this link. It had paired in the past but this morning I lost the device.  I removed it from the bluetooth list and tryed to re-connect.  Nothing appears to work. This trackpad works on my iMac, so it is a know good device. (I have since un-paired it fromt eh iMac)
    Any help would be great.

    I found I had the same problem... Was your trackpad hooked up to different computer in the past?  Mine was, after I removed it from my old computer, it worked fine....

  • TS2662 My keyboard will pair with my iPad but will not pair with my MAC...any ideas?

    I have had my iMac for 2 years now...I have never had a problem pairing my keyboard.  The batteries died in my keyboard so I changed them and now I can't get the keyboard to pair to my iMac.  I know the keyboard is fine and the batteries work because the keyboard will pair to my ipad.  Any reason my iMac is having trouble pairing with the keyboard?  Thanks!

    If it is paired currently, you need to unpair it if you want to pair it back with the iMac.
    As I said, it can only be paired to one device. If you want to use it with another, you need to unpair it first and then pair it with the other one.
    And, if you need to sign in with your password to your Mac, you will need to borrow any USB keyboard to do so and to pair it; once it's recognized, you can use the wireless keyboard again.

  • My iPhone 4s will not connect with my mac pro

    hey, so i have an iphone 4s with the latest update iOS7.1 and a macbok pro which is also up to date with itunes 11.1.5. The entire time ive had this computer and this phone all i had to do was connect the two via USB and my computer recognized my phone as well as itunes and proceeded to sync all my things automattically sometimes it would do it even if the devices werent connected but even if they were close in proximity they would connect, no problem. BUT now it will not do that when i connect it via usb neither one recognized that they are connected my phone will charge but thats about it, every once and a blue moon my phone will recognize the computer and ask if the computer is trusted to which i select "trust" and then it tells me its unable to connect but that barely happens most of the time nothing. Ive tried the typical restarting my computer, restarting itunes, searching for updates but its not just itunes that doesnt recognize my phone its my whole computer it seems, what could have happened to make these two devices unable to connect? how do i fix it?

  • Why is Mountain Lion not compatible with my Mac Pro?

    Downloading Mountain Lion to my Mac Pro (running Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8) fails with this warning" not compatible with this computer". Why is this happening? What is the solution?

    Apple didn't drop graphics cards. What they did is force 64b boot mode.  What that means is any Mac that does have a EFI64, Mac Pro 2006-2007 cannot use Mountain Lion at all.  And any machine using certain video cards that don't have 64b drivers are also not able to use it.
    It is a shame that they decided to do it, but that is the way of large companies no days.  There is no real reason to upgrade to ML unless you really need notifications, iCloud, and iMessage on your Mac.
    What is sad is they removed the ability for people to buy Lion.  So if you didn't go to lion you have already lost some apps in the app store, cause they require Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • Motorola HS820 will not pair with my Macbook Pro and now audio is broken...

    My problem is two fold.
    First i cannot connect my Motorola HS820 Bluetooth headset to my Macbook Pro. The bluetooth assistant pairs it succesfully but when it connects it immediately disconnects. All of the posts i that address this are either for g4 macbooks or do not work for me...
    Second, now that i have attempted this connection i am having issues with several apps including firefox and mediacentral. Audio from these programs will not play. I get an error message saying there was a problem with configuration..

    This is not related to the Intel platform (MacBook or MacBook Pro). Make sure the headset is turned on before you turn on your Mac. Then it should connect correctly.
    To change the sound outpu, please go to Mac OS X > System Preferences > Sound > Output and change it back to the internal speakers.

  • White A1016 wireless keyboard not pairing with new MacBook Pro

    I still have (and love) the original white bluetooth Mac keyboard (model A1016, with numeric keypad and function keys). It won't pair to my new MacBook Pro. It's discoverable, appears in the list, I can select it and try to pair. Then it sits with the spinning wheel for some time before giving up.
    Oddly, if I press "return" during the spinning, it (very) briefly displays the passcode, but of course by then it's too late, and fails saying that I got the passcode wrong!
    This appears to be a Bluetooth system preference problem - is anyone else seeing this?
    This Apple technote suggests that this keyboard should work with iOS, whereas the original aluminium one doesn't (although it's not entirely clear)... if it works with iOS, I can't see why it won't work with OS X 10.8.4!

    My old Bluetooth Mighty Mouse won't work with my newer MBP running Mountain Lion, either. I suspect that the keyboard is incompatible with your new machine/OS X 10.8.x.

  • Iphone6 bluetooth not pair with my MacBook Pro !

    Hi.
    When i try to pair my iphone6 to my MacBook Pro, appear the Message Code, i select Pair, the devices connect and after few seconds, disconnect and om my iphone appear the message:
    "Is not Possible to pair the device. MacBook PRO is not supported".
    I check the Macbook Pro details and i have Bluetooth 4 on my Mac.
    I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Version on Mac and iOS 8.2 on iPhone.
    This situation cause de impossibilities ti use software like Tether.
    Any suggestions ?
    Thanks for Help.

    There is no supported Bluteooth pairing profile between the iPhone and Mac other than Hotspot tethering.
    if you are talking about the Tether Whiteboard App then you need a paired Mac Application which can be download from the developer.
