Re: Humanware BrailleNote Apex and iOS Devices

Hello Josh This makes a lot of sense. It's really a shame that there's no way to pair your devices with multiple BlueTooth devices and switch between them all simultaneously. Thanks again. Lynne On 13 Jul 2013, at 06:02, Josh Gregory wrote: > Go to the braille terminal and put the port on Bl

Hello Desi OK, Gordon is banging his head on the wall now and doing all kinds of crazy things. No, we didn't have the Apex in terminal mode, we were trying to pair it as a native BlueTooth device. But this explains a lot. I'll get him to calm down in a minute and we'll try that. Thank you. Ly

Hi Lynne, Did you put the Apex in Terminal Mode. I don't have an Apex, but a good friend of mine does, and I was helping her with hers recently. I believe you have to go into the Connectivity settings on the Apex, put it in terminal Mode, then proceed as you did with the iPhone. Then choose

I would have said yes. I do it all the time. My iMac goes to sleep after an hour, but my iPhone charges up when connected. Although, if you have a USB keyboard and plug into the ports on the keyboard, you'll get different results. I think they will even drain the phone when the computer sleeps.
