Re: Braille displays with VMware
Kawal's suggestion to turn CO off allowed me to add the braille display but I still cannot use it...yet. I did finally get USB working, had to reset the braille display which would have saved me a weekend of troubleshooting had I done that first. Now back to trying to get Bluetooth working.

Re: Braille displays with VMware
I think you have to go into the devices section of the tool bar within the vm app and then find the display listed there. You can then press the connect button. I am still using vmware fusion 6.x, so if you are using a later version, this might not work. hth in some way, Caitlyn > On Jan 1, 2016, at 11:26 PM, E.T.wrote: > > I have a braille display paired with the Mac and now want to pair it with > Windows under VMware.

Re: Braille displays with VMware
When I was running VMware with windows on an old Macbook pro as I haven’t really ran windows with VMware on my I Mac or Mac mini, I could run my braille displays with Bluetooth be it using Voice Over or the screenreader of one’s choice. With windows 7, when you are running that, you need to connect your braille display via bluetooth by connecting it to the bluetooth controller when you are in windows. Once that is connected, you can then close down the VMware and put voice over on and your display should then connect to the Mac automatically. But first you must find the name of your port for bluetooth within windows if you want this to work and whilst using windows, make sure that Voice Over is turned off or it will not work once the VMware is off. Good luck and a happy new year to all.
