Thanks for this suggestion... I had already tried this... spent over an hour with a very helpful Apple support person... we tried two different computer resets, and all manner of attempts to pair, including setting up a test user.. I was able to pair my husband's mouse, but not my own keyboard and touchpad. In the end, the only thing that worked was to do the newest upgrade of Monterey that just came out... then I could pair....
