Q: How can I pair my aluminum keyboard with my Mac OS X ? It was fine before, but now it sometimes connects but goes off. I have followed all instructions. What else can I do? Batteries are new!

Both the wireless keyboard and mouse went off. I managed to reconnect the mouse but can't do anything with my keyboard. When I manage to put the Passkey offered it comes back saying the pairing is unsuccessful in the box "Attempting to pair with ....my keyboard". Or when I try again and get another passkey number, I press the Passcode Options and enter the number, and press enter, I get the same message. When the Passkey is there, the return button is not live so I don't think this is working; Very frustrating.
