RE: Typing with a brilliant VI 32 on Mac and iOS

Hello Keith. I installed the firmware update and found no differences. Brailleing has never been an issue for me but the Brailliant BI40 locks up when I write in IOS applications. It's so bad that I can't take notes during meetings. This makes the entire solution unusable. Humanware promised

Bard crashing issue

Hello list, So I’ve been noticing this for the past few months now and was curious if others were experiencing the same thing. From within the Bard app (iPhone 5 iOS 8.3) the app consistently crashes on me while in my wishlist of books. I don’t ever recall it crashing while in other tabs

RE: Netflix

I forgot to mention that poor signal was also contributing to issues I was having. One of those little WIFI extender boxes that just plugs into an available wall socket fixed that. If all else fails, power cycle the Apple TV box. Sometimes, like all computers, it just needs to be rebooted. Chris

RE: Bard crashing issue

Cristobal, I believe this BARD Mobile crashing issue began with some version of iOS 8 although I'm not sure which one. I normally experience it when initiating a download from my wish list. I'll double tap the wish list book to begin the download and when I tap to confirm it, the app closes.

Re: Airport extreme versus airport express

Hi Don, the Airport Express has a headphone/speaker jack, much as you'd find on the iPhone or many similar devices, on the back of it. Airport Extreme does not. That's one immediate and easily identifiable physical difference that comes to mind. I am fairly sure the Extreme has more Ethernet

Re: Typing with a brilliant VI 32 on Mac and iOS

Hi, Kim. There has just been a new firmware update for the Brailliant released in the past month or so which makes it much easier to type in Braille on the IOS device. If you do not know how to update the firmware, let me know off-list and I will help. Keith On Saturday, June 20, 2015 at

RE: albums in a list in iTunes?

Hi Eve, If the music on your iPod was previously synced to it from an iTunes library and you now sync that iPod to a new iTunes library without music you will loose everything. Unfortunately you cannot sync music back to iTunes once it’s on an iOS device. If you have the music on your

Have you contacted Netflix to ask what may cause this? I have a 35 Mbps down connection and second gen Apple TV and even long movies usually start playing within 10 seconds. I doubt it matters if you have a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps connection, after all, the stream is only that large. Of course if

I just updated my iPad to IOS 8.3 and I also have the BARD app crashing. Also setting the timer for BARD to shut off does not work either. I wish I had known this and I would not have updated to IOS 8.3. I don’t know why the gov cannot update this BARD app. I guess I should know the answer

Re: Do any of the Braille displays use a QWERTY keyboard? RE: Replacing Braille Notetaker with iDevice

the u2 QWERTY is a solution, though it will not eliminate the braille issues, as the qwerty keyboard still goes through the same process when it's translated with VO. There are distinct advantages to having a separate BT keyboard, like being able to use the quicknav navigation keys in Safari.

I had a similar issue with a 125 MBS connection. Try changing Playback Setting to High, if it is currently set to Auto. Note: if you have more than one account, you'll need to change that setting for other accounts or profiles as well. They recommend a minimum connection speed (meaning download
