Hello SKBright,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Troubleshooting your keyboard
If you are unable to see your keyboard when you attempt to pair it with Apple TV, check that your keyboard is:
- Powered on and in range of your Apple TV
- Set for discovery or pairing
- A blinking LED indicates that the Apple Wireless Keyboard is in the discoverable mode. If you don't pair your keyboard with your Mac within three minutes, the indicator light and keyboard will turn off to preserve battery life. If this happens, press the On/Off switch to turn your keyboard on again.
- When using third-party devices, check with the keyboard manufacturer for additional information.
- Not paired or connected to another device
If your keyboard responds intermittently or cannot maintain a connection:
- Ensure that the keyboard has sufficient charge or fresh batteries
- Check for nearby sources of interference, including other wireless devices, Bluetooth transmitters, and so on
- Try unpairing and then repairing your keyboard with Apple TV
Best of luck,
Mario
