Troubleshooting
Magic Keyboard is not connecting or pairing with my Mac.
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your Mac. Connect the keyboard to your Mac using the USB-C cable. If it doesn't pair automatically, try restarting your Mac and the keyboard (turn it off and on again). You can also try removing any old keyboard entries from your Mac's Bluetooth settings and re-pairing.
Touch ID is not working.
Verify that your Mac has Apple Silicon and is running macOS 11.0 Big Sur or later. Ensure your finger is clean and dry. Check System Settings > Touch ID & Password to confirm your fingerprints are enrolled and 'Unlock your Mac' or 'Apple Pay' is enabled. If issues persist, try deleting and re-adding your fingerprints.
Battery life is shorter than expected or the keyboard isn't charging.
Confirm you are using the included USB-C cable and it's securely connected to both the keyboard and a reliable power source (Mac's USB-C port or a power adapter). Check your Mac's Bluetooth settings for the keyboard's battery level. If the battery is consistently draining quickly, try restarting the keyboard and your Mac. Avoid extreme temperatures, as they can affect battery performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Unbox and Charge: Remove the Magic Keyboard from its packaging. It may arrive with a partial charge, but it's recommended to fully charge it before first use. Connect the included USB-C Charge Cable to the keyboard's USB-C port and to a USB-C port on your Mac or a compatible power adapter.
Automatic Pairing: Once connected via the USB-C cable, your Mac should automatically detect and pair with the Magic Keyboard. You might see a prompt on your screen to confirm the connection.
Wireless Use: After initial pairing, you can disconnect the USB-C cable to use the keyboard wirelessly via Bluetooth. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your Mac (System Settings > Bluetooth).
Touch ID Setup: To enable Touch ID, navigate to System Settings > Touch ID & Password on your Mac and follow the on-screen instructions to add your fingerprints.
Compatibility
Operating Systems: Requires a Mac with macOS 11.0 Big Sur or later (macOS 12.0 Monterey, macOS 13.0 Ventura, macOS 14.0 Sonoma are also supported).
Touch ID: For full Touch ID functionality, an Apple Mac with Apple Silicon (e.g., M1, M2, M3 chip) is required. The keyboard will still function as a standard Bluetooth keyboard with Intel-based Macs running compatible macOS versions, but Touch ID will not be available.
Care
Cleaning: To clean your Magic Keyboard, gently wipe it with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, aerosol sprays, or abrasives that could damage the finish or internal components. Do not allow moisture to get into any openings.
Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the keyboard in a dry, room-temperature environment.
Charging: Use only the provided USB-C cable or a certified USB-C cable for charging to prevent potential damage.
