Bluetooth Not Turning On Mac

I restarted my Mac multiple times; installed the latest software update; cleared my junk; and even tried holding Shift + Option to debug bluetooth settings, but nothing works! When I hold Shift + Option and click on the bluetooth sign in the menu bar, there is no option to debug. Someone please help :(

How do I fix Bluetooth connection issue on my iMac? Bluetooth completely drops out for no apparent reason, and at random times. I lose keyboard, trackpad and mouse and the only way I can find to get it back is to Restart the computer. It tends to happen mostly when more than one user is logged-in, and mainly becomes apparent when the computer will not Wake Up as usual on mouse/trackpad activation. However, it's just happened while I was in the middle of doing something. (Another user was logged-in.) The only way I've found to re-boot is to plug in the keyboard and then use Fn+ Ctrl+F2 to get to the Apple menu, scroll down to restart using arrows and then hit enter. If anyone has any ideas how to just reboot or repair the Bluetooth side of things, it'd be much appreciated [Re-Titled by Moderator] Original Title: Sudden loss of bluetooth connection

I should have added, that's if you have an Intel Mac.
