A new set of batteries in the wireless keyboard renders keyboard unfindable.

Swell. It all worked great before I took the two aging batteries out. I have tested the new batteries as well charged.

Message on screen says "make sure your keyboard is discoverable." It must have been last week. Now I can

navigate nothing that requires a keyboard. So can not enter and search for "discoverable keyboard." Nor type in

a preference change, unless it were a toggle. I have tried entering the batteries "either" orientation.


Any help greatly appreciated. I hate calling the tech here just for this, but am growing tired of only the iPad for

every macNeed.


Cheers,

Here are the instructions for changing the batteries. Once they're installed properly, tap the power button on the right side of the keyboard once. The green light on the top right of the keyboard should blink.


If the keyboard doesn't connect automatically, use the mouse to click the bluetooth icon on the menubar and select the keyboard and connect.
