How to turn on Bluetooth with my keyboard?

I have an 2010 iMac5 and turned off Bluetooth by mistake. Is there a way to turn it back on with my keyboard?

With a USB (wired) mouse, there are 2 ways to turn BT back on:


1 - If the Bluetooth icon appears in the upper right of the menu strip on your deskop, click it & turn bluetooth on

2 - In System Preferences > Bluetooth > Turn Bluetooth On


If your Mac is shut down, you will need a USB (wired) keyboard in order to log in to your account; from there you can use the mouse to turn on bluetooth.
