1. Is it an Apple Keypad or a Keyboard?

2. One option is to unpair it from OS X side, pair it to Windows. Windows usually does not prompt for pass codes. The default should be 0000.

3. Once it is paired with Windows switch to OS X and pair it again. This time you will be prompted for a pairing code.

I think I must mean key board.

I tried what you suggested but it didn't work. It didn't accept 0000 as a password and timed me out.

Thanks for trying anyway

Does Windows pairing process show an on-screen passcode that it expects you to type on the keyboard. OS X side uses this method.
