My Magic Trackpad 2 BT radio seemed to have stop working. It will haptic click but no response by my Mac. Under Bluetooth it is grayed out. Oddly when I plug into Lightning it connects and works fine and even get a notification it is connected wirelessly. Is there a way to reset it or try and “force” the BT on or is the BT radio dead?

Have you removed the trackpad from your Mac and then let it re-discover it to see if that fixes the problem?

Do you have another Mac you can try to connect it with to eliminate some type of conflict with your current Mac?
