Hi. There's a current hit on the pop charts called Bad Guy. The word from it that best describes how I feel is, "Duh". Thank you so much, Jenn for mentioning to actually hit the panning button itself. It works like a charm. I can now read much faster on the Focus. Thanks again. Also, thanks

I have questions regarding if it is possible to keep the screen from being active with a braille display, and how to save battery on my iPhone X.

Hi. Let me explain what I'm trying to do. I just got a Focus 40 Blue 5th Generation display, and I'm using it with my iPhone X. I have two really basic questions. First, and most importantly, is there a way to lock the touch screen so it doesn't do anything while I'm using the braille display?

Hi. Yes, I have experienced the exact same problem on a new iPhone 11, also. It drove me nuts. Finally, in desperation, I restored the phone from a backup I made from a 6 S Plus, just before trading in the 6 S plus when buying the 11. That solved the issue. I restored the 11 via an

But just to be clear, the USB dongle is nothing but a Bluetooth receiver, it does not actually plug in and transmit via 2.4 Ghz like the Logitech H800 which you can use in Bluetooth mode or 2.4 Ghz wireless mode. If you have a laptop with Bluetooth then you would actually spend money
