Can't flick using touch screen on ipad mini

Hello,
I have a Focus 10 blue that I have paired with my ipad mini 4. I cannot flick using the touch screen. When I do, I hear a low pitched sound and nothing happens with Voiceover. However, if I use the chord commands on my Focus, Voiceover speaks normally. Does anyone know what could be the issue with why I can't flick on the screen and more importantly how to fix it? Also, on my Focus1 the commands listed on Freedom Scientific's website do not do what they say they do. For example, pressing the right rocker bar down is suppos$ to move to the next item, but in reality it's taking me to the next page. The opposite happens when pressing it up. Therefore, any who uses the new Focus 14 or 40, did the commands change or could I be pressing the incorrect keys? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
