My wireless keyboard is flashing green but won't show up on my mac.

I replaced the battery of my wireless keyboard and now it won't show up on my Mac. I turn it on and it keeps blinking green, i've read that it's in discovery mode when it's doing this, My Bluetooth is on discoverable. and I've deleted the bluetooth unit from my mac. I have no idea what to do now.....

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Bluetooth connection issue with wireless keyboard on Mac mini Does my wireless keyboard use Bluetooth to connect to my mini Mac? Can’t seem to get my keyboard to connect. And for the 5 minutes it did work, the white connection line was stuck at about 10% and wouldn’t move anymore, so can’t get into the computer to even assign the keyboard to Bluetooth. Aaaarrrrgggghh [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Wireless Bluetooth keyboard won’t turn on. I have a wireless Apple keyboard (about 7-8 years old)that will not turn on. When I press the power button the green LED lights up for about 3 seconds then goes out. It does not flash as though trying to make a connection to MacBook. During that 3 seconds the Bluetooth window detects the keyboard but pushing the "connect" doesn't work as it powers off too quickly. I put fresh batteries in and still get the same results. The battery terminals are clean. No corrosion ever. I just migrated from a 2015 Intel Mac to a 2023 M-2 MacBook Pro. Keyboard worked fine on Intel Mac. Please, any suggestions? Thank you.
