Same here. Just can't stand this anymore. My keyboard will connect to my iPad without any problem. On my iMac there's a massive problem after updating to Monterey. The bluetooth sees the mouse and keyboard but won't connect. I get a message saying Passkey mismatch. plists have been removed with the instruction of Apple technician. OS reinstalled. Nothing. It also sees my iPad but doesn't to connect with it. I get a message on my iPad saying that the version is not compatible. I really hope they are working on this issue as this is not acceptable. So many Apple users complaining on the internet.
I have the same problem.... updated to find no Bluetooth, mouse scroll not working, keyboard issues, mail slow to load amongst other serious issues. Apple Please fix this and stop these unnecessary updates.
Same here - what happened? My bluetooth speaker beeps when I select it in bluetooth preferences, but that's it - it says connected, but no sound actually comes out of the speaker; it continues to come out of the MacBook speakers instead. I tried the safe mode restart, did a first-aid diagnostic, restarted, nothing. Come on, Apple, this is a big one to mess up.
