Q: Can't login at startup
I'm not sure why this happens but if I put my computer to sleep for more than an hour, I can't log back in. Neither my bluetooth keyboard nor my bluetooth mouse won't work. I have to hold down the power button in the back and restart and only then will the keyboard connect and let me log in.
So my first thought was to get a USB keyboard and log in using that...but for some reason even that will not allow me to type. Apparently the Mac won't recognize any input if I put it to sleep. I have to force restart every single time.
I'm not sure how to fix this. It doesn't look like a bluetooth issue since the USB keyboard won't either.
Mac mini (Late 2014), OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
