Logitech Mouse Mac Setup: How to Enable Bluetooth Without a Mouse

If your Logitech mouse has stopped working and you're unable to connect it to your Mac, there are a few ways to enable Bluetooth without a physical mouse. In this article, we'll walk you through some simple steps to get your Bluetooth devices up and running again.

Firstly, if you have a USB keyboard connected to your Mac (or built-in keyboard on a MacBook laptop), you can use it to enable Bluetooth. Simply plug in the keyboard and follow these instructions: If you don't have access to a USB keyboard, you can try using Siri to turn on Bluetooth. If you have Hey Siri enabled on your Mac, simply say 'Hey Siri, turn on Bluetooth' and Bluetooth will immediately be turned on, allowing your mouse and/or keyboard to connect to the Mac momentarily.

For those who don't have Hey Siri enabled or need further troubleshooting steps, there are a few other options to try. You can start by replacing the batteries in your devices, resetting the Bluetooth hardware on your Mac, and trying some general troubleshooting tips for resolving Bluetooth Not Available errors.

Additionally, if you're using an Apple Magic Mouse 2 or Apple Wireless Keyboard 2 model, these devices have a USB lightning port that allows them to be plugged directly into the Mac. This can be a useful workaround in situations where Bluetooth connectivity is lost.

It's important to note that this guide is aimed specifically at users who find themselves unable to use a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse on their Mac due to disabled Bluetooth service. If you're experiencing more general issues with your Bluetooth devices, we recommend checking out our comprehensive guide to Bluetooth troubleshooting for further assistance.
