Hi there again I didn't using the spacebar to select files and deleting them all at once. You learn something new everyday, never mind I've had this display for over a year now. I guess that means you can delete those ghost files.
I do have some information, however, about pairing problems with the Braille Edge 40. This happened to me, and I have no idea why. I went to the office HIMS office and worked on this with Mike. I guess we spent about two hours on this, and then we ended up calling that wonderful 877 number. My Braille Edgge 40 liked every device, except my 5 s iPhone, so there is probably not something wrong with your Braille Edge, at least mine didn't end up needing repair for the same problem you are having. You won't like to hear this, but I had to erase all my settings on the iPhone. I'm talking about restoring it, so don't do that unless you find you have to. You might go into settings and write down all the ones you can find that you changed from the defaults. Oh, yes, make sure you have written somewhere your Internet passwords. Then set your settings back to factory. You don't have to erase all your data on your iPhone, just your settings. If you're concerned about doing that and losing all your stuff, you might want to call Apple Accessibility at 877-204-3930. If your equipment is too old, like you've had your iPhone for too long, for instance, and Apple charges you the $20, it will be worth it. It costed me a lot more than that to find out what was wrong with my Braille Edge. I made a trip to Austin. I did visit a friend, but I had to pay cab fare etc. to go to the HIMS office.
