Yosemite Bluettooth Connectivity Fix

I have been having issues with my trackpad and bluetooth keyboard reconnecting to after I wake up from a sleep session. Only twice now but the same thing. Instead of restarting (which will fix it) you can drop into the command line and run these two commands:

  1. sudo kextunload -b com.apple.iokit.BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport

  2. sudo kextload -b com.apple.iokit.BroadcomBluetoothHostControllerUSBTransport
