I really think activesync has nothing to do with the procedure, so I would try disabling activesync before installing and running your BrailleNote as a braille terminal with Window-Eyes. I'm no longer a Window-Eyes user, so I don't know the procedure for setting up a braille display, so don't ask me about the details. I just know that activesync is a problem not an asset when using a BraileNote as a display with JAWS, which I haven't tried with bluetooth yet, because I just got my keysoft upgrade completed about 15 minutes ago. :-)

Yes, I am using Window-Eyes. If you have any comments/insights, I would be more than happy to hear them. My situation is the following: I do not have ActiveSync working yet because my Bluetooth cereal port is set to 14 and I so far have been unable to change it to anything lower than that, and according to Dean Jackson, ActiveSync will only use ports less than 10. So, I may have to fix that first. What is happening: On my Computer, I have told Window-Eyes to use the BrailleNote as the Braille display and use com-14 (the Bluetooth cereal port). I can get the BN and computer paired by activating ActiveSync. When I try going to the BrailleTerminal, and selecting Bluetooth, it tells me "cereal port not available" Now, for an interesting experiment: I tried activating the modem Bluetooth profile on the BN. Next on the BN I went to BrailleTerminal and said to use Bluetooth. The BN connected to the computer just fine. Of course, it did not work as a Braille display, but it did connect. I hope my rambling made some since <grin> Thanks for any help.

If you are using Window-Eyes, I might be able to help. If you are using jaws, I am afraid you will have to try someone else.
