Apple has a getting started guide, right when you turn on a new Mac. Just wait

Re: Apple's iPhone 7 WILL dump the headphone socket | DailyMail Online

Another thing. What if they make headphones with a lightning connector? What if 
they have two lightning ports on the phone? What if the headphones can monitor 
health data like the Apple watch? What if they can do virtual reality stuff, 
like moving sound as one moves the head? Think.

They're removing it to make more room for even better things. Would you want a 
serial port on your phone? Or a floppy or CD drive? Let's think different. 
Let's think of possibilities and the future.

I can't wait to see what the new headphones are like, and even what they can do 
now that they have digital capabilities. It might not be just audio that goes 
through them.

You can also use the menus, like video, audio and all that to move around. They 
have a “program” and “ital” selector which actually can get you passed a DVD 
menu too.

 By default if you wish to skip tracks with VLC under Windows I think 
 you need to use the Ctrl-Alt-Left and right to go back and forward 
 through tracks respectively so you may need to do some fancy work with 
 your Screen Reader or press the Bypass next key combination to get this 
 to work, alternatively you can do some redefining of VLC keystrokes or 
 go through the playback menu of VLC and activate your shortcuts there.

VLC can play just about anything, literally.

usually you can just press enter and the DVD will just start playing.

 I didn't try it with DVD'S actually and I don't play DVD'S on my computer but 
 I can't see why it wouldn't work once you get past the Welcom menu thing on 
 a DVD, if you're running JAWS then perhaps the Convenient OCR function may 
 help you there.
