Braille Sense U2 with Mac?

2013-07-25 Thread Alex Hall

I have used mine with my macbook running Lion. It works via USB ok, but the bluetooth drivers won't work. This was solved in OS X 10.8 (mountain lion). The directions for bluetooth are pretty standard and are in the help files. -eric On Jul 25, 2013, at 10:03 AM, Alex Hall wrote: Hi all, I

You might ask gw-micro about this. I've never used this product, but you might give it a try. If it has a braille display mode, enable that, then connect it with usb or pair it using bluetooth and see if it works. On Sep 17, 2010, at 4:16 PM, Chris Snyder wrote: Hi folks, I'm wondering if a

It's in the supported devices list on the Apple page. Bluetooth requires Bluetooth module, according to the notes. I'm assuming USB is supported, if the device has USB. (I'm not familiar with it. HTH, Teresa On Sep 17, 2010, at 4:55 PM, Mike Arrigo wrote: You might ask gw-micro about this.
