[solved] Suddenly, bluetooth can´t find my magic mouse

[antonioj07]

Hello, i´ve been using my magic mouse without any problems in El Capitan for months, but suddenly it stopped working. I removed the magic mouse to try and add it again, and now bluetooth can´t find it (or any other bluetooth device).

My bluetooth adapter is a generic CSR device, that i made work with 10.9.0 kexts. Like i said, it was working fine, in 10.11.5 and every build before...it stopped working while i was still with 10.11.5

Today i installed 10.11.6, then the 10.9.0 kexts, and still i can´t find any bt devices (it just stays searching)...

The only thing i remember doing before this started happening was forcing a shutdown (pressing the power button).

Test your BT hardware on Windows.

I did...it was working fine...so i researched a bit more, and found a solution used even on real macs: delete com.apple.bluetooth.plist from Preferences...and now it´s working again
