how do I set up the magic trackpad when I can't access System Preferences

Bought a new iMac and Magic Mouse. After initial installation, decided to swap mouse for the Magic Trackpad.

Trackpad is turned on but I am unable to access System Preferences since my iMac was paired with the Magic Mouse. I don't have another USB mouse to complete the pairing. Any suggestions? Thank You.

Nancy,


If you have the bluetooth icon in the menubar, you can reach that and open bluetooth preferences by

pressing FN CNTL F8. This will move focus to the right side of the menubar, then arrow across and down to get to the options you need. Press the spacebar for "enter".


Regards,
