Wireless keyboard just stopped working.

Ok. It’s been working. Then all of a sudden it died. Battery is at 46%. Im charging it. It’s a new Bluetooth. I mean it’s a replacement already. The second for my 2019 7,1 Mac Pro. Luckily I have a plug-in keyboard I’m using. But am I missing something? So far Bluetooth isn’t yet discoverable. I would think 46% battery would be enough charge to operate?

Are you referring to the Apple Magic Keyboard (wireless rechargeable)? I've had mine go down below 20% and it still was discoverable. There may be problems with your BT, interference, or other BT devices in the same area as your Mac Pro.

That’s the one. Before I closed down last night it finally was discovered. But listed at 48%, up from 46. I suspect the BT problem lies elsewhere. Thank you.

Try a WIRED keyboard instead.

When you have one, "connection problems" mysteriously vanish !
