Q: Intermittent Bluetooth Drops with Sierra, only some devices

Anyone experiencing intermittent bluetooth drops with Sierra? After upgrade, my Apple trackpad keeps dropping, although the keyboard remains connected. The trackpad is at 95% battery power. I've unpaired and re-paired it, but not difference.

Might be a problem with Bluetooth preferences ...

Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder

Type or copy paste the following:

/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist

Click Go then move the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file to the Trash.

Then monitor your trackpad connection.

If that doesn't help, try a NVRAM reset > How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
