Q: Microsoft Designer Keyboard and Mouse
So, brand new Mac mini running El Capitan 10.11.2, i am trying to connect via bluetooth the Microsoft Designer Keyboard and mouse...

Mouse is good to go, but when trying to connect the keyboard, i am asked to enter the 6 digit code on the keyboard to complete pairing. I have tried on the top set of number keys, as well with the right keypad keys, prior to pressing num lock or after pressing num lock... NOTHING IS WORKING... i can't connect the keyboard and it eventually goes out of pairing mode. The keyboard works fine as i have connected via bluetooth to a windows 10 PC and a Surface Pro 2. I know it will have limited functionality on the mac, but i have seen reviews on youtube that people have reviewed the keyboard on their mac... I am a recent convert from PC so am i doing something wrong, or maybe just not compatible with 10.11.2...?
Any help would be AWESOME!!!
Thanks
Mac mini, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
