I don't think uninstalling and reinstalling would change that. perhaps
you could contact FS about the problem and let's see how they solve it.
My initial thought was that the # sign was being seen as braille 'ble'.
It shouldn't have something to do with it, but did you merge JAWS12 with
a previous JAWS? then, you just might need to uninstall and reinstall
JAWS if that's the problem. My brailleNote doesn't operate the braille
input modes properly, probably because it's a QT model anyway.

Hello and thanks for getting back to me. Admittedly I haven't tried
that new hash sign, but if it thinks the number sign is an extra
character wouldn't it think the same of the other dots? I hope I'm not
installing something wrong, because others who've had focus displays
not the blue, say they can enter numbers just fine. Would I be better
to uninstal the display itself and start over? if so, how do I go
about removing that? I didn't see how in the Braille options. Thanks
for all of your help. One last question, how do I change to computer
Braille for the password then back to contracted for everything else?

have you tried inputting it [the number] with the new hash sign, i.e.,
dots 456-1456 then 3456 dot1? You might, however, instead need to
input
the whole password in computer braille.

andjaws.
Hello all. I’ll get right to the point. I have a Focus 40 blue that I
like very much but am having problems using it on a website. The area
I’m having an issue with is when entering numbers for instance in a
password setting. I have it set to contracted imput and output in the
Braille settings of Jaws 12 latest build, and it’s also crucial to
note that I am having this issue whether or noti’m bluetooth
connected, or on USB. When I enter a password, say gooddog1 the issue
is how to get Jaws and the site to recognize that this is a number. I’ve
been told to do everything from try a dropped number, to using a
number sign also I’ve used dot four, or dots four seven and none of
these seem to work. These were all suggestions by other Braille
display users. My system for those who may need to know: is a dell
Studio xps 1340 windows seven sixty four bit home Premium edition. If
you can help I’d appreciate it. I hope this was clear, if not please
mail me off list if you need further information.
