Hi allison,
I was wondering if because my braillenote is part of the dbc(deaf-blind 
communicator) had anything to do with the lack of pairing. I didn't know you 
had to put it in terminal mode. I'll try that next when the teacher and I have 
time. He's trying to get me setup to do email now. Hopefully, we'll be able to 
do this real soon.
Your braillino has four nicad batteries. You can change your own batteries and 
your own software. but you have no speech! It has an olboard manual just like 
the braillenote, but not quite as intrusive. But you'lll enjoy it probably. All 
the best and I'll let you know if I can pair that braillenote dbc.
Thanks.
Isaac

  Hi Isaac,


  THank you so much for your reply. I found that with the BrailleNote, you need 
to turn bluetooth on first, and then put it in to terminal mode. After that is 
completed, try pairing it again. THis is the only way I found that works. 
Unfortunately, the display on mine is going, and the battery is too.  It 
requires a reset, now it won't pair at all. Some of the HumanWare  staff have 
Macs. THey were very helpful when I called. Would you mind letting me know what 
happens? I'd be interested to see if you get the BrailleNote to work. THank you 
again for all the great information about the Braillino. I will hopefully have 
mine tomorrow. Have a great evening.


  Musically,
  Allison

    Alllison,
    My braillino pairs easily and it holds the pairing nicely! We have no 
trouble with that one. It's the braillenote that we have trouble with. But you 
know the braillino has these tripple action keys? those drive me nuts at times. 
I don't like them. I wanted to pair the braillenote to see how it works. I may 
have to call HumanWare on this one.
    You will need to use your computer to load files on the braillino. so if 
you want to take it with you to the doc's office, you will have to load the 
files beforehand. So good luck with it!

      Hi Isaac,


      I'm glad I'm not the only one who is having this problem. I thought I was 
doing something wrong. I can't wait for my Braillino. I will post if it pairs 
easily and holds the pairing after I get it. Thank you again.

        Scott,
        We did perform these steps.. I have the braillenote mpower bt18 and 
it's one of the last units built. It has the updted braille display with the 
metal cursor routing buttons. It paired, but it didn't hold it.
        If you want to discuss off list you need to send me your email.

          Isaac,


          You can perform the pairing via SYstem Preferences as you discovered 
and then use the Braille tab in the VOiceOver Utility (vo-f8) to add the device 
via bluetooth. If you have performed these steps, please advise. In fact if you 
would tell me which display you have, its age, and any other details about it, 
I would really appreciate this information. I have had a problem paring a new 
Brailliant 40 and I have an open report with APple. I would like to know all 
the steps including the info about the display, so that I may include it if 
appropriate.
          Please contact me off list if you prefer.


          Thanks,

                Hi guys:
            How does one pair a braillenote with the Mac? We almost got it but 
we're missing something. It says paired, then it drops the ball for some 
reason. We got it to find three macs! thanks.
            Isaac
