The Touch ID feature of this Magic Keyboard is fully compatible with Mac computers featuring Apple silicon (M1, M2, etc.) running macOS Big Sur 11.4 or later. It may function as a standard keyboard with other Bluetooth-enabled Macs, but Touch ID will not be available.
The built-in rechargeable battery is designed to power your keyboard for about a month or more between charges, depending on usage habits.
While the keyboard uses standard Bluetooth, full functionality, especially Touch ID and certain macOS-specific keys, is optimized for Mac. It might work as a basic keyboard with an iPad or Windows PC, but not all features will be available.
It features a USB-C port and includes a woven USB-C Charge Cable in the box for convenient charging and initial pairing with your Mac.
Yes, this specific model is an extended layout that includes a full numeric keypad, which is very useful for data entry, spreadsheets, and finance applications.
To clean, gently wipe the surface with a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water. Avoid harsh chemicals, aerosol sprays, or excessive moisture near the keys or ports.
The primary difference is the colour and aesthetics. This model is black. Functionality, including Touch ID and the numeric keypad, remains consistent across the same model type, regardless of its color.
Ensure the keyboard is charged. Connect it to your Mac using the USB-C cable and allow it to charge for at least 10 minutes. If it still doesn't respond, try connecting it to a different USB-C port on your Mac or a different power source.
Confirm your Mac is an Apple Silicon model (M1, M2, etc.) running macOS Big Sur 11.4 or later. Ensure your finger is clean and dry and fully covers the Touch ID sensor. Try deleting and re-adding your fingerprint in System Settings > Touch ID & Password.
First, connect the keyboard to your Mac with the USB-C cable to establish initial pairing. If it still won't pair wirelessly after disconnecting, go to System Settings > Bluetooth on your Mac, ensure Bluetooth is on, and try removing the keyboard from the list of devices and then re-pairing it.
Gently clean around the affected keys with a can of compressed air to remove any debris. Avoid applying excessive force or liquid directly to the keys.
Ensure the keyboard is fully charged before use. Check for any background processes or applications on your Mac that might be excessively using Bluetooth. Environmental factors like extreme cold can also affect battery performance. If issues persist, try resetting the keyboard's Bluetooth connection on your Mac.
