Hi eileen, thanks for your constructive response.
I've had this problem with the iones devices as long as I've
had the Apex. I've also tried this on an original iPad running
iOS5, and also a third generation
iPod Touch running same version, with no differences. Not a one
of them will even see the Apex!
It looks to me like a servsces issue, because the Apex sees the
iOS devices but only hands-free and printing services if I which
a search from the Apex. Oh yes, and serial service as well. I
have made double double sure that the Apex doesn't think it is
paired with the phones. So I'm tutally puzzled.
Kind Regards

Hi Gordon,
I did read your post earlier, but I was in transit to the market.
I am
wondering if it is operating system specific. On my iPhone4, I
am running
6.1.2 and on my MBA I am running ML. I'm wondering if something
got broken
with the OS updates for both the iOS and Mavericks. Just a
thought.

Hi Glenn
Yes, this is what I'd expect to happen. Oh, and the pairing code
is 0000 as
with many devices like this. Makes me wonder what is the point
of
implementing a code at all actually, given that there's 0
security.
However, it ain't working for me I'm sorry to say. The Focus
does, so I
know my problem is related to the Apex. HumanWare UK tell me
also that they
are seeing similar problems and have alerted the Canadian
subsidiary company
which is HumanWare's dev envelopment arm and asked them to
investigate. As
you may have seen in my response to Eileen's post, I have tried
numerous
devices with the same result each time. But I won't give up,
maybe one time
I'll get lucky.
All this brings me to my next question. Is there a definitive
source of
commands for these displays? This also applies to the Mac as
well.
Kind regards

Hi Gordon,
I have done it, I don't recall if the code is four zeros, or the
numbers 1 2
3 4.
Seems that one is for the QT, and the other is for the Braille
keyboard.
So in your IOS device, go to settings, and bluetooth and then go
to
BlueTooth in the apex connectivity area, and you will be prompted
to enter
the numbers on the IOS device.
HTH.

Hello all
Has anybody managed to get an Apex from HumawWare to pair with
an iPhone or iPad? If so, how did you accomplish this truly
amazing feat? No matter how I tryI simply cannot get these
devices to talk to each other. And yet, with the Freedom
Scientific Focus40-blue it just clicked, as soen as I tried.
If any BrailleNote user has managed this, I'd really love to
know how you did it!
Kind regards
