Bluetooth connection problems since Sequoia

I just experienced this again running 15.3 on an iMac. It's not a particular device, but Bluetooth itself that stops. I loose my keyboard, mouse and track pad, all are Apple devices. It has been a very random occurrence with me and it has been over the course of years, not a particular release. Just now and then, everything disconnects for some short amount of time, then comes back.

I have been facing the same issues with Apple Magic mouse.

Tried all fixes on the internet, it turns out Bluetoothd just disconnects the mouse.

Have been seeing bluetooth issues with MacBook Pro 16 since last 6-8 months now.

I just installed the latest Sequoia 15.3 on my iMac (27, 2019). I have experienced this issue. The keyboard is Apple Magic Keyboard. It's okay if I keep using it. But if I leave my iMac idle for a while, it will appear. Do we expect a fix from Apple?

I have lots of robotics projects using HC05 Bluetooth modules. they all worked perfectly on BigSur (Intel Mac) but on the new M1 it was very flaky on Monterey and having "upgraded" to Sequoia in the hope it would be fixed the devices will connect and communicate ONCE only then they won't connect again. They appear in the list of devices after a "forget" (the usual way to make it work again on Monterey) but now there is no way to get it to ask for the pin again. Why are Apple breaking more and more with every new update. Im seriously thinking that the next machine will have to be a Linux PC...

No solution, just a little more data:

Had a MBP M1 upgraded to Sequoia and no problems with my logitech M355 pebble mouse (I set the mouse up well before Sequoia and it was fine through the Sequoia upgrade).

I moved to a MBP M2 and tried to connect to the same logitech mouse. The MBP saw the mouse and had the "Connect" button, but it would never connect and eventually timed out. No combo of turning things off and on helped.

I tried a brand new (never connected) logitech M350 mouse and it connected right away.

Adding to the list, devices affected: All of them.

Apple Trackpad

Logitech MX Master 3

Keychron K1

Apple Airpods

All of these worked perfectly fine on Sonoma, after upgrading to Sequoia; the mouse is incredibly laggy, unusable.

The keyboard is slow and the trackpad is even worse than the mouse.

Apple - 7 times while scrolling through this page for a solution, my mouse needed to be switched on and off for the Mac to remember or reconnect to it... it works and then stops... this same mouse works fine on two other computers... I dread to say PCs.... this same mouse has worked for years on this Mac... until Sequoia... Any chance you have a driver update coming since the problem originates with the upgrade of your OS and does not occur on tow other computers?

MacBook Pro (2023 M2 Pro) has been functioning without issue since upgrading to Sequoia months ago. What began as an issue with my Logitech Keyboard (K850) has since spread to my MX Master Mouse and Triathlon mouse. The unpairing is unpredictable. These devices have continued to work on their alternate channels, paired to a windows PC and iPad. This is definitely a MacOS issue. Based on timing, I cannot tell if I was hit with the but at 15.4 or sooner.

I've had the same issue. Upgraded to Sequoia 15.1 and all of a sudden bluetooth Logitech keyboard and mouse won't connect. (running a MacBook Air M1) Mine won't even recognize them in Bluetooth at all, but will recognize my Bose speakers and connect fine to it. Is this necessarily a Logitech issue? My other Logitech mouse connected with a dongle works just fine. Only the Logitech Bluetooth devices are problematic.

Same to me. My Keychron keyboard freezes every now and then, mostly when I stop typing for few seconds or move between open windows.

No issues with Logitech mouse nor Bose headphones.

I'm forced to work with wired keyboard since 15.0, and now with 15.1.1 the issue still persists. I have a MacBook Air M1 2020

just updated my MBA 15 m2 from Ventura to 15.3. My bluetooth mouse loses connection after several minutes, even though its still states its connected on my bluetooth panel. I had no issues with this mouse with Ventura. so it is definitely a Sequoia issue.

PLEASE FIX IMMEDIATELY. This is unexcusable for a company that is worth $3.6 trillion dollars?!?!?

Chiming in here to say that despite troubleshooting aka restarting, resetting bluetooth, etc. my iMac that I bought pretty much a month ago won't add any other bluetooth devices. I have a Logi MX Master 3 that will only connect to the iMac via usb dongle. I have two ports on this and have resorted to a hub just so I can use an ergonomic mouse. OS is Sequoia 15.3.2 and up-to-date. Mouse is up-to-date. I wish I hadn't upgraded, but my 10 year old iMac was barely turning on with 8G of RAM. I hope something gets sorted. Right now, the bluetooth menu is just constantly "searching" and finding nothing.

I am now on Sequoia 15.4 and the bluetooth issue has still not been fixed. Should all of us now buy mouses that connect to Macbooks via a cable again, going back to ancient times. Why is this not being fixed if this has been reported 6 months ago already on this forum. It is not acceptable to having to reconnect bluetooth devices a gazillion times a day. My MacBook is on it's way to go for flying lessons if this continues.

The solution is to remove device every 5 minutes and re-add it... that is both for the mouse and the keyboard...

So you must leave laptop open to be able to use the trackpad and keyboard of the laptop. Once you add and connect, then you can close the lid. But then you have to re-open it in 5 minutes to re-add.

Sound like a viable solution.

When can we expect a driver update?

Same issues as soon as upgrading to Sequoia on a Macbook. Apple external keyboard looses connection randomly. Apple magic mouse very laggy. Logitech Lift mouse very laggy.

I changed to Apple to avoid such situations, but here we are. Been wasting time trying to find a solution for over two weeks. Who has time for this ?? And meanwhile it impacts my work. Absolutely unacceptable.
