This is old news as far as command-option-ctrl not moving the mouse;
that was posted quite a wqhile back and has been posted several times.
1. What happens when you don't try moving the mouse and just do ctrl-
option-space or ctrl-option-shift-space? I didn't see your
explanation of this if there was one. I'm aassuming you had the mouse
cursor following the vo cursor and tried both key combinations.
Ordinarily one is able to do just this and no mouse movement should
be done first but I know there are exceptions as I had one time with
iTunes. But you should try both combinations before messing with the
mouse at all. Also have you tries shutting down completely and
waiting a couple of minutes and restarting?
2. I think you said mouse keys didn't work but just in case: check
the key combinations you are using and try again. Make sure
mousekeysis turned on in universal access. I also have the box
checked there so I can hit option five times to toggle between mouse
keys and numeric keypad. Also note in universal access the sliders
for speed and delay; don't know how that might affect your movement.
Here are the key movements:
up: 8
down: 2
left: 4
right: 6
move diagonally: 1 3 7 and 9
click mouse: 5
hold down the mouse button: 0
release the mouse buton: period (the one on the keypad of course)
0: holds mouse
