Hello ski47,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities! I understand that your Mac tries to pair with you bluetooth keyboard with a verification code, but doesn't do anything. Let’s take a look and see what we can do. I'm happy to help!


Let's go ahead and resource this article to find a solution. If the keyboard is not working as it should, let's follow "Pair your Mac with a Bluetooth device".

Using a Bluetooth mouse, keyboard, or trackpad with your Mac


If your device continues to have issues after pairing let's try to restart the Mac and try to pair again.

Next, let's try to make sure the Mac has a backup of all information and check to see if there is a software update available.

Please respond back if you continue to have any issues.
