Hello, this is my first post! :)

I have installed Kali Linux on my iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) today. I have had a few issues as soon as I have installed it. The wifi didn't work at all, but I could solve it thanks to the forum. But the bluetooth doesn't work and I can't use my wireless keyboard and mouse. I could manage to run the bluetooth, but when I go to Setting-->Bluetooh, it keeps searching, but it cannot find anything, I just have many Unknown Not Set Up that are not even clickable. I used the command to get the updates in the terminal, I restarted the system but nothing, still like that.

If you would like to see the result of /etc/init.d/bluetooth status, it's the following (I'm not sure if it can help):

root@leon:~# /etc/init.d/bluetooth status -l

I have no idea about what to do, I checked on many and many forums but they have only the solution if your bluetooth doesn't run at all, but not if it cannot find my wireless keyboard and mouse, I'm obliged to use the ones cabled.

Thank you very much guys, hope I can find a solution.

Regards,

Inst

Issue solved, I needed to switch off the devices and then on again, kali found them afterwards. Thank you :) I don't know how to mark the thread as solved. Sorry.
