    Hello Mepurvis1,

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It's my understanding your unable to pair your Bluetooth keyboard and your Apple TV. I know using a keyboard with Apple TV can make it much easier to navigate and search. I am happy to help.

    First confirm with the manufacturer that the keyboard is compatible with the Apple TV.  Then try the following:

    1. Turn on your keyboard and make sure that it's in range of your Apple TV.
    2. Make sure that your keyboard is discoverable or in pairing mode. If it isn't, turn your keyboard off and back on. For help, check your keyboard's manual.
    3. Make sure that your keyboard isn't paired or connected to another device

    Use Bluetooth keyboards with your Apple TV

    Have an amazing day!
