Hi There. I am just trying to write with my focus but when I press the letters on my braille display it goes out of the mail program. So what am I doing wrong as I wanted to write with contracted braille using the braille display.
Also are there any podcasts on how to use the focus with the Mac OS? I can use the braille display with windows by controling the machine even though it’s a virtual machine with my Focus but can’t do the same with the Mac. I wish I could.
