magic mouse not working after data migration from old mac

After using the migration assistant to transfer info to my new iMac 24 from a very old iMac, the Magic Mouse won’t work. How can I go back to new/default status and start over?

Logitech MX Master 2S mouse not recognized I have a 2017 era iMac 27" Retina with 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, 64 GB ram, Radeon Pro 570 4 GB graphics. I have been keeping it running with Mojave 10.14.6 because I wanted to run Adobe CS6 Suite and its worked fine. For the past 4-5 years I've been using the Logitech MX Master 2S mouse without a hitch. Recently I decided that I wanted to set up a dual boot with a more up to date OS so I added a external 1TB SSD and set it up with Ventura. When I first set it up, it didn't automatically see the Logitech mouse so I used an Apple wired mouse model A1152 to do the post boot setup. So for some strange reason, neither OS will recognize the Logitech mouse and I really do prefer it over the Apple mouse. I tried downloading an older version of Logitech's unified software but that didn't seem to work as it was looking for a newer OS. So I can't understand why the Logitech worked with Mojave a week ago, but now it won't. And I don't know why when I run Ventura it won't work in that OS either. Can anyone clue me in on how to get this set up correctly? I want to be able to switch back and forth between OS versions, but if I have to reboot, will a menu come up asking which OS I want to use? Thanks in advance for helping old non techie.-Mike

brand new Magic Trackpad does not show up in system settings. magic trackpad does not show up in system settings. does show as bluetooth connected and can use somewhat but does not scroll, highlight or copy and paste. Since it is not there, don't have a way to change options. Read a few other posts and this seems to be a common problem. Need a solution, please. iMac Retina 5K, 27 inch, 2017. Ventura 13.7.6, system settings shows "your Mac is up to date".

Hi Figgielou,

We'd like to help you find the best path for helping with this issue. The steps to follow would actually be in If you can't connect your Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, or Magic Trackpad to your Mac which will have some settings to check that could assist. If this continues it would be best to contact Apple Support to seek additional steps that we do not have information for.
