My husband and I both find it necessary to perform a reset quite frequently
after charging.
Anyone else find this?
It doesn't really matter unless you're grabbing the BN quickly to go off to
a meeting ... and then get in late and have to do a reset with no headphone.
(Won't do that one ...)

Thanks Evelyn. I guess this tells me it isn't a
universal issue. The
trouble is that there are so many settings that can
differ from one user
to another. Heck, it could depend on whether you leave
wireless turned
on(which I don't) or have speech turned on (which, again,
I don't). I
pretty universally have a memory card inserted, and that
could influence
how the Apex comes up. Wish I could pin this down. The
one good thing is
that I know how to fix the issue easily and quickly; it's
just annoying.
Thanks,
Jerry

re: [Braillenote] An Issue Regarding Keyboard Behavior
After TakingApex BT
off Wall Outlet Power
Hi, Jerry,
That's weird. I've never had that happen. Usually
though I
don't turn it on to use it right after unplugging it. I'm
usually wanting to move it somewhere else to use it.
Still, I
don't ever recall that happen to me when I have started
it after
unplugging it.

Subject: [Braillenote] An Issue Regarding Keyboard
Behavior After
TakingApex BT off Wall Outlet Power
Reading Joseph's fine list of bugs reminded me of one of
my
favorite
long-standing ones. For me, this one has been present
since I
bought my
Apex BT a year ago, and I can't believe I haven't
mentioned it
before. I
wonder if others have noticed it. It may not always
happen, but
it often
does.
1. Plug your Apex into a wall outlet overnight to give
it a full
charge.
2. Pull the power from the Apex and wait a while for it
to
finish its
display about the AC adapter not being connected. Note
that I
typically
have speech turned off, so I just get the braille display.
3. Turn on your Apex. Try hitting w to bring up the word
processor or b
to bring up the book reader. Nothing happens.
Actually, what often happens for me is that I turn on the
Apex
and quickly
type space with o, c, w. This is supposed to get me to
where I
can turn
wireless on or off, but I get the stopwatch instead.
I have discovered that if I now turn the Apex off and
then turn
it on
again while holding down dot 8, the keyboard behavior
returns to
normal
100% of the time. Have others noted this, and is it one
of those
annoyances that would be really nice to have fixed?
Regards,
Jerry
