Hi. Good points, Eileen, though I've rarely had to re-do the pairing between my iPhone and my Apex. Maybe it's Keysoft 9.4.1 or maybe it's just that I've beat the hell out of that machine, using it heavily over the last three or four years and the machine is juit showing its age. Whatever the case, I've found that the bluetooth implementation on my Apex is really squirrely. Quite often, the Apex will fail to connect when going into terminal mode, and I've had to go to Options, then Connectivity and turn off bluetooth and restart it. The Apex will sometimes say that bluetooth could not be started and I'll have to do yet another reset. It's a drag, but I've grown used to it, I suppose. When this old Apex dies, as it most certainly will some day, I'll spring for a Braille display with a Perkins-style keyboard and forget about note-takers entirely.
