Hi

Ive noticed since installing High Sierra my bluetooth trackpad has been losing connection, has happened about 3-4 times now and when it does it can take a while to establish a connection again, so Im basically stuck until then.

Is there a known issue with this on High Sierra or anything I can try doing fix it?

Thank's

I get a similar thing happening with my Magic Mouse 2 mainly happens if I move the mouse quickly just after power up.
When I had the original Magic mouse and Trackpad I would get more frequent disconnects even with Mountain Lion, El Capitan. I just lived with it as I have both connected and the disconnect now only happens with the mouse which I use more often. So when it happens I use the trackpad to reconnect, if that doesn't work switch the mouse off and on.

Hi

Thankyou for your reply, I have had the disconnects as well pre High Sierra, just that it seems to have happened a lot more for me in High Sierra, hopefully the reset may have helped solve the issue.
