Hey FranklinNorway,


We understand you Mac mini is not recognizing your mouse and keyboard during start up. We're happy to provide information that may help.


First, check out the information here: Set up your Mac mini.


Then, take a look at the "Your device isn't recognized by your Mac" section of this article: If your Apple wireless mouse, keyboard, or trackpad isn't working with your Mac as expected.


Let us know if that helps.
