Andres, D2 and D5 are used to pan the display back and forth, so you won’t find them listed in the VO Utility. Also, I’m pretty sure that most of the commands involving the space keys will work the same as on other displays. I have a VarioUltra 20, and the space commands work fine. I’m not fami

Yes, it makes a big difference. If you still have the old iPhone, then you could have unpaired the watch. I think your only option now is to send it into Apple service to get the watch reset. I’m not sure what that will cost, and it is up to you to decide if it is worth it. - Brad - On Apr

Unfortunately, the cost is roughly 230 US to get this fixed. So the cost is quite high. Since it is out of warranty. Unfortunately it’s 200 to justify a new series 3. So it’s a tossup. That’s where the situation is now. Sincerely Maurice Mines. > On Apr 24, 2020, at 11:49, Brad Snyder

So what is the dilemma? Is it weather to get the old watch fixed or to get a new series three, then it is a no brainer as the cost is less for the new on and you get another warranty. But if it is bother with the watch at all because you already have a series 5 then I’d just forget about the old

Based on a quick review of the Web site, the Vario 340 is one of those classic designs from Baum, where there is no braille keyboard, but there are six "display keys" to the right and left of the display itself. I suspect that Apple might not have updated everything that they need to in order t
