Apple wireless keyboard won’t stay on When I press the on/off button at the end of the battery compartment, the green light comes on for a few seconds and goes off. The keyboard connects to my IMac for a few seconds, but then I lose connection. When I press the caplock key the light will not come on indicating the key board is not on. Problem seems to be the keyboard is not staying on. I have put new batteries in the keyboard. Why will the keyboard not stay on? How can I fix this?

Depending on how much time elapsed since you last had it on and working, it may need to be paired again.
