iMac cannot find my wireless mouse. I've tried all suggestions from Apple and on Google. What else can I do?
My Apple wireless mouse suddenly stopped working. Bluetooth couldn't find it. Since it was about 5 years old, I bought a new one. It paired and I used the new one until it needed to be charged (about 20 days). I plugged it in to charge and then connected my USB mouse to continue working. The next day I unplugged the USB mouse, turned on the new wireless mouse and waited for connection. It never happened. I've tried all the Apple suggestions, but still no connection. Restarted Bluetooth, restarted computer (multiple times). I get the window telling me to make sure the device is turned on (it is, I've turned it off and on as Apple suggests), but it just spins and says "no wireless mouse found."
At first I thought my new mouse was faulty, but it worked when I first used it. Now it can't be found, and I assume it's fully charged (it's charged for 48 hours!)
I've spent way too much time on this. If anyone has a suggestion, I would love to hear it.
Thank you.
