Not sure if this is a mouse, bluetooth, or Mac Pro issue, so I'll try my hand here in the accessories section first. If it doesn't belong here, mods feel free to move thread.
I'm on a cMP3,1 that dual boots Mojave and Windows 10 that has an original apple bt card.
Over the course of an eternity, I have Mojave running well, and then set it up so that Win10 also boots nicely. Last thing I tried to do was get the bluetooth magic mouse (original, not version 2) working on Win10.
I've had a whole bunch of issues getting bluetooth to show correctly in Win10, but have managed to get it installed correctly ... more or less. It would see my phone (which has BT turned on), but it would not see the mouse at all. The only way I was able to get it to pair with my magic mouse was to boot back into Mojave and delete the pairing with Mac OS. At this point, Win10 will see the magic mouse and is able to pair with it. After it is paired to Win10, I boot back into Mojave, and it sees the magic mouse and asks if I want to pair with it, I say go for it! Next time I boot back into Win10, I've once again lost connection to the magic mouse and it is not visible to be paired; and then I have to go through deleting the pairing in Mojave .. etc. etc.
I'm pretty sure the same mouse can physically be paired to multiple machines, but since this is the same machine (ie. same BT mac address), is there something goofy happening that does not allow it to be paired to that same bluetooth receiver "twice", once in Mojave and once in Win10?
