[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1799863, member: 307555"] Making the mouse discoverable usually means turning it off and back on. I have had issues with my Mac Pro occasionally. Usually toggling the mouse (trackpad in my case) off and on would solve it. But i do have a wired mouse and have had to use it to reach the bluetooth setting to repair the mouse. If the bluetooth card has died in the iMac it can still try to search for a mouse making you think it is working. If toggling the mouse on and off or restarting the iMac does not work, next idea would be to access the system preferences -> bluetooth. You will probably need a wired mouse to do this. Lisa [/QUOTE]
