I am really not sure what to do about this. When I first received the
Brailliant the key 8 definitely worked, now it doesn't and I was told that it
is an Ios problem but this is obviously not the case. However, worryingly the
same happens with my focus 40 in that sometimes the dot 8 works, sometimes not.
Making notes in the local settings, key 8 works as apparently it brings up
all 8 dots to signify this. I owonder do I have grounds to send it back for a
new one? I definitely don't want to but I do want a correctly working unit.

I have just used it to create the line spaces in this message. If you have
iOS13.3 there should be no problem with dot 8.

Hi Jackie.
This puzzles me. could it make a difference according to which email
programme is used? I am using Live Mail.
Also, does your key 8 work? Mine is not working which I've been told is an
Apple problem but when I first got it, key 8 was definitely working. Is
there a braille setting that makes a difference within the settings on the
iPhone?

Hi Jackie and Iain.
So Iain, what do you mean pressing on the cursor key corrects being unable
to use dot 8 for a new line? Are there any braille settings in voice-over
that affect not being able to use the dot 8 key?
I was told it is an I O S thing but when I first received the Brailliant
it did work because I kept sending text messages by mistake before I was
ready.
Jackie: are you saying that when you sync notes they do go into your inbox
because I was told this does not happen and so I am still confused.

I have found that sometimes the dot 8 doesn't work as expected. Usually
pffessing down on the joystick fixes this.

Hi Mandy
Try updating your iPhone to the latest software, there has been yet another
release this week. If I write notes on either the BI14 or on my iPhone,
then synchronise them, I always receive an Email containing the notes I
have written which lands in my Outlook Inbox as normal.
Kind regards,

Hi Jackie.
Thanks for this.
I have just talked with Louis Crack and he says the dot 8 thing is a
VoicedOver issue although strangely it did work when I first got it. I
find dot 8 doesn’t work on my Focus either athough at times it does.
I was misunderstanding the notes sync thing, I thought that the notes went
into the inbox of the email account I didn’t realise it just meant that
they are on the Brailliant in the email account section.

Hi Mandy
I’m baffled as to why you are experiencing these problems to be honest, my
BI14 just wakes up seamlessly when turned on and in the vicinity of my
phone, I’ve never seen another display that does this so well.
I’ll send you the review off list, but I don’t think it’s going to help
much from what you are saying.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi Jackie.
I would be grateful for the review off list, I did call HumanWare again
yesterday and asked for a step-by-step instruction but must have deleted it
by mistake and I had already phoned the day before – bit embarrassed to
keep cling even though I know that is what they are for.
Also now, for some reason, my dot 8 does not create a new line.
I did look at some settings but the manual does not seem to say what the
defaults are: i s there something in the settings that would affect this?
I am sure it says something about new line and I have this on, perhaps it
is supposed to be off.
Also, sometimes I seem to have to go back into settings to reconnect the
Brailliant i s this usual?
Mandy.

Hi Jackie.
So I followed your instruction and notes was not on, I turned it om but
still cannot sync.
Can you give me step-by-step instructions what to do with a note for it to
sync with email?
What I am trying is sliding the switch to the left on the Brailliant, first
thing I see is the current time so I move the joystick one to the right and
see notes.
So I select notes with the joystick and it says local. I understand that
these notes don’t synchroniseSo I move the joystick one right to my email
address and select
And I have a couple of words written in.
What do I do next so that these will syncd with my email account and do
they also appear in notes on the iPhone?< /p>
Sorry if I am being a bit thick, I just can’t get this.
Als o I keep sending text messages halfway through: I gue ss I must keep
hitting enter even though I don’t realise it.
Mandy.

Hi Mandy
Try the following:
&n bsp;
1. Go into your iPhone's Settings, and find Passwords and Accounts.
2. Now go to the name of the acco unt you want to sync Brailliant with, in
my case this is Gmail.
3. In here, check that Notes is on. If it isn't, ensure you double-tap to
turn it on.
4. Now try synchronising your device with your iPhone.
Job done, (hopefully).
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi All.
I have just spoken with someone from Humanware but it hasn't helped.
I downloaded the Brailliant Sync app and selected my account, I have even
received emails saying that my account is shared with Brailliant sync but my
account says idle and writing a note and trying to sync doesn't seem to
work.
I think I need a step-by-step instruction as I am not sure what I am doing
wrong.
