Is keyboard on?

[PeterOz]

is the desktop keyboard bluetooth or wireless with a dongle
If with a dongle
plug dongle into mac and see if keyboard works

[mx_599]

I think it is just internal bluetooth
i put new batteries in. still not letting me type. not sure if supposed to be flashing cursor, but not flashing

[PeterOz]

I think it is just internal bluetooth

The pc one?
I assume you clicked in the window and no typing points to keyboard issue.
No neighbour friend etc you can ask for a loan for a keyboard?

[mx_599]

its the original Mac keyboard. aren’t they blutooth?
no, but I see some on Amazon I like and don’t mind getting one

[mx_599]

I think I need a real keyboard. I don’t think this one is communicating in this state

[PeterOz]

I am asking about the Desktop PC keyboard.
Does it have a dongle.

This is the style of keyboard you need.
I am not saying buy this one this is the type/style
