I opened Bluetooth Settings, turned Bluetooth on, clicked on Connect, and Mac didn't go to the password window. I attempted this on my old Mac, and it worked as expected. Is there some special thing I can do to restore this, or is my new Mac broken? BTW -- I have been using this mouse on my new Mac for months.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.4

Depending on what Bluetooth Mouse is being used - you may have to Disassociate the Mouse ( Forget ) from 1 computer to be able to Pair it to the Other Computer
