Thanx for the correction. control+option+leftArrow and control+option+rightArrow will move you around the window, object by control+option+object. In the finder, the actual browser is announced as "scroll area" when walking the window this way. When you hear that, interact with it via control+option+shift+downArrow and then use command+2 or command+3 to control+option+shift+set the view to list or column view, respectively. -- Rich -- Rich ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hallsworth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS Xby theblind" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 12:20 PM Subject: Re: Problem with finder Don't you mean control and option?

You can investigate the window with the VoiceOver navigation keys vo+left and vo+right, where vo means hold shift+option, and left and right are leftArrow and rightArrow, respective.y. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jed Barton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS Xby theblind'" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 12:19 PM Subject: RE: Problem with finder I'll have to try that, the issue is when you go in to finder, and hit up and down arrow it says nothing. I would take it that one of these oddball views got tuend on? Any thoughts?

You can select them with command+1, command+2, and command+3 respectively. Icon mode is perhaps the least friendly to VoiceOver users, but it does offer the advantage that you can sort by attributes other than name (from the view menu). I like the column mode. Also, sometime you will be bounced out of the actual browser and onto a toolbar somehow. Try control+f5 to get back to the browser (you might have to hit this a couple of times); it should say "column view browser" or something to that effect, depending on what mode you've set (see above). -- Rich ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jed Barton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS Xby theblind'" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 1:31 AM Subject: Problem with finder Hey guys, got a problem with finder. When I am on the finder, I'm pressing up and down arrow keys and it says nothing. Any ideas on how to fix this? It was working fine, and I must have changed something. Any ideas? Thanks, Jed
