Hi all, I promise not to post all day about this. :) But I can’t get my Mac to pair with the keyboard. It paired flawlessly with my phone, but I guess if I want to use the app, I also have to pair it with my Mac. When I go into Bluetooth, it uses the keyboard, but when I click Connect, nothing happens. So how did those of you with this keyboard pair it with a Mac? Thanks in advance for any help. Cheers, Donna
