I can’t get my Mac mini to open because my magic keyboard won’t connect. How can I get into my Mac mini if there is no USB port in the keyboard?

I have an older Magic Keyboard, and it doesn’t have any ports, just the turn on/off button. I can’t get into my Mac Mini because I can’t get the keyboard to connect. I have changed the batteries. Mouse is working, so it is definitely the keyboard. Is there anyway around this?


Mac mini, macOS 10.15
