My Magic Trackpad's newest magic trick is to disappear after a few minutes of non-use. I was quickly able to discern that it was disconnected. Reconnected... few minutes later disappeared again. Battery level is 92%. Checked my Bluetooth options to allow Bluetooth devices to allow Bluetooth devices to wake the computer is checked.
Anyone else having any similar issues or am I special?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
I have the same issue. My BT mouse and BT keyboard are also not connecting to my MBP after the upgrade.
I am having the same problem, though I don't get any connection. I have the magic pad as well with a mid-2012 Retina Macbook Pro with an external TB monitor. Wifii doesn't seem to reliable, either, though the main problem is with the bluetooth. I have seen posts of beta users mentioning this problem with MBPs connected to external monitors, though when I disconnected the monitor, I still have the problem.
I've been on and off the phone with Mac support all day. My problem turns out to be an issue with corrupted files that was exasperated by the upgrade. Mine wasn't so easy to fix as there's a problem with my Hard Drive apparently, but if you reboot and hold down the option key, and boot from the recovery partition you can then use the disk utility to verify and repair the drive. Hopefully that will fix it for you all as they seemed confident that would have fixed it for me.
Thanks for the info. I'll try it when I get home. Though I wonder whether this has to do with my download getting interrupted, thus corrupting the update file. Either way, hopefully the disk utility can fix this.
I'm having trouble with my bluetooth Apple trackpad, too. Everything was fine until the upgrade to Yosemite. Now it won't connect on its own. If I open Bluetooth or the Trackpad preferences it will connect and function briefly, but then quickly disconnect all on its own. Frustrating, because I've come to prefer it to a mouse.
this is exactly how my BT headphones "work" now, flawless before
I reset the PRAM and that seems to have fixed it
Yes, PRAM reset worked like a charm.
I was able to discern that my HD wasn't corrupted, it was encrypted via FileVault. While this revelation is a bit embarrassing that I didn't think of it before, neither did three Apple techs (one of them tier 2) so I get a pass. After getting my drive unencrypted and repaired everything is now working as per usual.
What is PRAM? And how do I reset it?
I lost the use of my Apple Wireless Keyboard last night as soon as I upgraded to Yosemite. It uses Bluetooth, but my MacBook Pro is unable to "discover" it. Is this a bug with Yosemite? Will resetting PRAM fix it?
I've had a series of issues since upgrading, I believe it is BT related:
If I do NOT try to use my previously functioning BT headphones I get:
If I try to connect to the headphones I have issues with all of the above bullets. Trackpad and keyboard continue to work after the above problems manifest themselves.
This bug is repeatable - don't connect to the BT headphones, things are "good"
Disk Utility found no issues
RePairing the headphones does not help
I rest the PRAM last night, and the problem went away completely, everything worked. Put the machine in Sleep, went to bed, woke up, problem was back.
The BT menu think the headphones still Connected, they are NOT in the Sound Prefs (were when working), At this point the Sound Prefs won't close, and all I get again is the beach ball that spins endlessly (30 minutes).
I don't know if this is a BT issue, a Sound Prefs issue, or what, but again this morning I am broken.
I have a new magic mouse. I upgraded to Yosemite and boom no more connection. Also tried my HP bluetooth mouse and no good either. Called tech support and they said to reset the PRAM. I did and it worked for one restart. Later restarted and no good again. tried again to reset the PRAM and not able to hook up. I just became a Mac user and I was under the impression that Apple was robust. This appears to be the next biggest flop next to IOS 8.0.1 for the iphone that bothched it. Any help to get my mouse back????
resetting PRAM fixed my BT headphone issues, until the machine went to Sleep
then came back
I have the same exact problem with my bluetooth headphones - the audio in every application of the system goes out of sync and the entire system seems to slow down. I'd reset the PRAM but seems like it does nothing... please keep us all updated this is ridiculous considering how much money we all paid.
my magic mouse got idle after upgrading to Yosemate despite it's connected as it shows
