I have a Mac Mini 2011 and I use a standard Apple Magic Mouse and a Keysonic MacBT bluetooth keyboard.
What I have found is that the Mouse/Keyboard will often give me the "Connection Lost" notification when I don't use either for around 30 seconds or so.

It can be a slight pain to get the Mouse/keyboard to communicate with the Mac again and it can often require turning each device off/on.

I'm wondering if the Mac has a predefined setting which states the keyboard/Mouse will disconnect after a short period of inactivity?
If so can this be changed to a longer period before they disconnect?

I have trawled every available menu regarding this without finding anything which may help.


Can anyone shed any light on this?

(I'm sorry if this has alreay been asked/covered but I cant find anything in the forums about this)
