I recently took my iMac to have a diagnostic and repair job done. That was due to the computer malfunctioning. When I got home and started the Mac, however, my admin password is required.
The problem is, the Mac cannot discover the keyboard. I cannot get to system preference, because I am unable to
key in the required password.
How can I by pass the password to pair the Keyboard?
iMac, iOS 9.2.1
If you have one, connect a USB keyboard then enter your admin password then you should be able to "pair" the Bluetooth keyboard.

Thank you Rudegar. I am locating a USB keyboard. As soon as I find one and try it, I would let the community know the result.
