![]() This means we are unable to provide new signed drivers for Windows 7+8.x after 14th April 2021.Īll Magic Utilities version until then will keep working but we can not release any new versions for Windows 7+8. ![]() Microsoft stops Windows 7+8 driver signing support With version 3.1.0.4, we squeezed out the best general feature support for Windows 7, especially for Apple's multi-touch devices, the Magic Mouse and the Magic Trackpad. Turn your Mac computer on and boot to Windows.Now shut down your computer (do not restart).In case your Magic Keyboard still doesn't work on Windows try this: If you only restart your computer (without shut down) your Magic Keyboard might basically work but will not be detected by the Magic Utilities as it is seen only as a HID device and not as a Bluetooth device, hence our driver can't load. However, some Apple Mac computers seem to store the Bluetooth pairing information in the BIOS, so the paring can be shared between macOS and Windows.īut this seems only to work if you always shut down your Apple Mac computer before you boot to a different operating system, so do not restart the computer. That's because both operating systems use a different random token (kind of password) to encrypt the Bluetooth connection. In theory you can't keep the same Magic Keyboard working on two operating systems, even it's the same Magic Keyboard, the same Bluetooth adapter on the same computer. It's a well-known issue on Apple Mac computers.
