When I last tried it, my Baum SuperVario 40 braille display (the original “Brailliant” device as marketed by HumanWare – a Baum display under a different name) did not work under Mojave. It had previously worked well. To be specific, the display went into sleep mode when connected via USB, and VoiceOver no longer recognized that a braille display was connected.

I’ll try it with a cable tonight and let you know my experience. There was a Brilliant Firmware update available via the HumanWare Windows installer tool that I received last month. I have no idea what was in that firmware, and you can probably only do the update in Windows. Keep us up to date, with your issue Please.

CMD + F5 has brought Daniel back. However, no braille. Has USB braille support for the Brailliant displays been deprecated? How do I review VoiceOver crash logs? Yes I’ve heard of anecdotal references to doing a clean install but where is the scientific evidence? One person doesn’t make scientific evidence and we have other things to do. I’m sure I am not the only one to apply time saving measures to activities in my life. After all, Apple would force a fresh install if it was absolutely necessary. I had no intention of upgrading but the nags to upgrade became a pain.

I always do this every time a new major release comes out, it takes longer but avoids these kinds of problems.

However, just before Christmas I upgraded to Mojave and I keep having some kind of VoiceOver crash. I have reinstalled Mojave 3 times now. Each time it works well for a week or so. Then I get busy notices. I can leave it and it doesn't calm down. If I CMD + tab it crashes i.e. VoiceOver will not talk nor restart. When I try to restart although VO does not speak sound has not crashed as time announcements are announced as configured. I have set all voice output to Daniel. If I leave the machine for a while the same crash occurs. I can CMD + w and q in an attempt to close running applications. I can Eject + CTL and shutdown which works. It is something to do with VoiceOver but I haven't seen anyone else have the same issues. I have a Brailliant 40 display connected via USB which doesn't work during normal operation. However, it does during the install process. I intended upon doing a fresh install last time but neglected to wipe the disk first. How do I look through the logs to see what is going on? If a clean fresh install does not fix these issues. What other investigations can I undertake? Any help would be appreciated.
