Hey!


As other replies to your question suggest, you can buy a wired keyboard at an affordable price, but I believe that your iMac must have come with a Magic Keyboard right?


But you will be needing a keyboard to login to your Mac!

Plus, after you arrange for a keyboard to unlock your mac, you can set up a temporary on-screen keyboard, here are the steps: Use the Accessibility Keyboard on Mac - Apple Support


Thanks!
