I'm not having any luck getting the Magic Keyboard v2 to work with both my 2012 and 2009 Mac Minis. Problem is the keyboard (2nd one from Apple) will pair but will loose connection about 5 mins into use -bluetooth says still connected. Only way to fix is to turn the power switch on the keyboard on/off or click bluetooth disconnect/connect. Another issue is I can't use the modifier keys to zap perimeter RAM or select a temporary startup disk. Works fine with my older Magic Keyboard v1. I zapped the PRAM, reset SMC, turned bluetooth on/off. Tried deleting/pairing the keyboard with Sierra and El Capitan. Seems to work fine with my 2015 Mac Mini.

Any ideas?
