The computer is also shared, other users in my family use it and I don’t know if they hook up different keyboards when they use my Mac. I’m the system admin and we have one Magic Keyboard in the home.

Does the battery level indicator go away, when you turn it off and/or remove the Magic keyboard from the bluetooth list...?

Well The thing is I don’t know how to indicate if my Magic Keyboard is on. I’ll take a look at my Magic Keyboard though.

Plug your Magic Keyboard into the Mac mini using the supplied charging cable and wait a while.

If the charge goes up from 9%, then you know that is the keyboard.
