Log in to Mac w/o mouse

this was asked before and moving the mouse via keyboard was suggested or using the arrow keys. However - both only works, if you are logged on already. This is not possible on the logon screen. So the question remains to be answered …

Mac mini, macOS 15.3

The Keyboard used is a Bluetooth Keyboard ?


Who is the maker of the keyboard ?


If and only If this is an Apple Magic Keyboard with the Lighting or USB-C connector


Use the suppled Apple Cable to connect the keyboard to the Mac Mini


By doing so, the keyboard would function as if it were a USB connected keyboard


Should the keyboard be a Non Apple Bluetooth keyboard


Purchase a cheap USB Keyboard like I have done and used for Special Occasions like this one
