hi,
somehow my keyboard and magic mouse to my iMac were disconnected overnight. There is a password on my computer so I cannot log on to even try my keyboard/mouse preferences. what can I do?😱
 
As long as they have charge and are turned on they should connect to the iMac when it starts up (note: not wake from sleep), is this not happening?
 
Sounds like bluetooth was turned off on your iMac, thus the reason why keyboard and mouse do not work. You will need a wired mouse to turn bluetooth back on. On a side note, it appears the post time on the threads are off by 2 hours. Instead of falling back one hour, this forum moved ahead another hour, so off by 2 hours.
