Scott, The manual has good exercises init. you can also use column mode and then just left arrow without vo backward through the folders you have traversed.
as far as moving character by character, if you are in a document in text edit, it's vo-shift-left and right arrow. you can also in this instance just use left and right arrow. Richie gave you the rest on the character by character movement. how long did it take you to learn windows <?> Hi. How do you back out of directory levels on the mac? It seems that going to the sidebar, interacting with it to find the next item you want, stop interacting with that, and so on seems quite innificient. Maybe I just don't have the hang of this mac yet but some things seem so much simpler in windows. For instance, I'm not even sure how to get voiceover to spell a word or read character by character. A lot of the times on the mac, I just feel like I'm lost. Perhaps some one on one training is the best way for me to get some basic concepts on the mac. I've never really been good at reading a manual and learning in that way. I'm more hands on wit this kind of thing. Maybe I'm not being patient enough with myself because that's been known to happen on occation. Anyway, thanks for any help and allowing me to vent a little if you want to call it that. lol. Scott
