Following your description, not your title, I assume that your keyboard works just fine but your mouse won’t connect to your Mac.


Try following these steps:

  1. Check yout mouse is turned on and charged. If you cant check the charging status of yout mouse with another device, plug it in for 10 to 15 minutes to be assured that the mouse works.
  2. If your mouse the does not work after rebooting your mac again, try connect a mouse which you can connect by cable.
  3. If 1. And 2. All did not work, follow this guide to enable controlling your mac fully by keyboard: Navigate your Mac using Full Keyboard Access – Apple Support (UK) And try again connecting your mouse when you repaired your mac with DiskUtility.
