Hi all,

I received this inquiry on another list from a father who is trying to help his daughter pair a BrailleNote Apex and an iPod Touch via Bluetooth. I was not able to answer his specific questions, but thought someone here might be able to help. He says:

"We have switched [my daughter] to using her Braillenote Apex to control her iPod Touch instead of her Focus 40BT, at least temporarily (the Focus 40 quit working properly, and she loves using that keyboard). I find myself a little confused by the way the Apex is working for this, because I had assumed all the commands would be the same as with her Focus 40, but a number of the controls seem to be different now (if not perhaps absent?- we can't seem to find them.) These include the delete command, the way to enter a search field (like for spotlight), and how to start and stop music. I suspect there are other changes as well but [my daughter] is too frustrated to look much more until we get some of these working- hopefully one change will fix the lot... Are there any users here who know which commands to substitute, or where a list of the controls might be found? Google isn't really helping on this one when I search. I'm wondering if these are user configurable, or if some setting got changed by accident when the keyboards got switched. I'd love it if we could seamlessly move between the Apex and a BT 40 to control her iPads more seamlessly."

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Lucy
