Hi evansfunerals,
To make sure we are on the same page, you are trying to use your newly purchased Magic Mouse 2 but it is not recognized by your Mac Mini. Let's see if we can get that sorted out for you.
I would first want to point out that to use the Magic Mouse 2, you will want to make sure that you are using OS X El Capitan. That version is going to be OS X v10.11 and if you do not have that you can download that from the Mac App Store.
The other detail I want to point out is that if you are trying to use it as a wired mouse, that is something that will not work.
Take a look at the links below. The first will have a section on the system requirements and the second will walk you through pairing your Magic Mouse with your Mac Mini.
