BlueTooth MacMini

We are in May 2021, we have received and installed the latest update 11.3.1 and the bluetooth problems are still not solved.

Am I alone?...

Any connection to a BlueTooth device (keyboard, mouse, headset, etc.) is futile...

What a disappointment this MacMini is!

Mac mini, macOS 11.2

Ventura Bluetooth issues. Why is Apple dragging its feet when addressing the Bluetooth issues created with the Ventura OS 13.0 update? It is impossible to connect my keyboard to my Macbook Pro since the update and all of my mice have a terrible lag as if the buffers get full and then empty out. I can never tell where the pointer will be at any given time because it seldom follows my mouse. The keyboard and mice work fine on all other Bluetooth enabled devices, but NOT on the one device I have with Ventura. (And, yes, I have done all the troubleshooting. Nothing makes it work properly for more than a few minutes.) It is sloppy and anti-user to let this bug continue! I left PC's to get away from this kind of shoddy workmanship!

Wifi interface is missing after updating mac OS Monterey Hello all, Surprisingly, I am facing a wifi/Bluetooth interface issue in my MacBook Pro in early 2015 13" inch after updating the system software. The wifi symbol is showing with a '!' mark. Bluetooth is working fine for now. But I can't see any wifi/Bluetooth interfaces to add, minus, or edit in the list. right now I am using the internet via LAN cable. I have found similar articles but with a different OS and MacBook device also. I would like to know the technical aspects behind this issue if possible. I have tried soft reset also. If anybody has any idea on this, please do suggest to resolve the issue. Any suggestion is appreciated. Please find the images inserted. Wifi enable/disable option is greyed out. Wifi/Bluetooth interface is missing in the list Wifi interface missing - Apple Community https://www.lifewire.com/reset-network-settings-on-mac-5184072 Thank you.

Constant bluetooth pairing requests Every day around 4 pm, while I’m working, I start to get Bluetooth pairing requests from a machine that must be somewhere around me in my office building. It pops up every few minutes asking to pair. Neither "ignore this device", Cancel, OR Connect actually do anything nor stop these from coming in. I can’t just turn off Bluetooth because I use a Bluetooth mouse and AirPods. I have tried updates, resets, removing plists, safe mode with and without networking…everything short of knocking on each business around me and asking them directly. Here is what my screen looks like after 25 minutes: https://imgur.com/a/e2Ud9LF The main issue is that when these pop up, they come in with max authority. So if I'm working on a project or in design software using my mouse, this takes over the mouse, goes to the front, and lags all of my Bluetooth devices for minutes. It’s incredibly frustrating. Called Apple twice for support. Neither group of people could help or find a solution. I was told to post to the community since there is nothing they can do. My only option is to not use Bluetooth altogether. Does anyone have any insight on this?

Poorly shielded hi-speed USB cables, drives, display cables and other EMI devices in close proximity to your Mac Mini, can make the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi weak or intermittent.
