Hi Esther.
For some reason, the VO fn shift left and right arrow commands doesn't
work on my Mac book. I'm wandering why. Do you think it's because I
use a danish keyboard layout? The VO and shift keys are at the same
place as the english keyboard.. When I press VO shift fn left or right
arrow, the VO cursor just moves as it does if I just press VO and the
arrow keys. If I turn on the VO keyboard help and press the command,
VO says: "Moving Voiceover cursor to first item in group."
For some weird reason, control left and right arrows moves the cursor
to the beginning and the end of the line. It's weird. Maybee I should
try to change to the english keyboard layout and see how it works.
Best regards
Søren Jensen

I have trouble, in Text edit, getting to the beginning and to the end

Btw, I'm using a Macbook, so I don't have keys like home and end.
To move to the beginning of a document on your MacBook use
VO-keys-FN-shift-left arrow. To move to the end of a TextEdit
document
use VO-keys-FN-shift right arrow.
For general information on all these navigation commands, I'm
going to point you to Tim Kilburn's web page. Here's the
description of TextEdit:
http://homepage.mac.com/kilburns/voiceover/textedit.html
Look through the list of VO Commands in TextEdit for information
about reading through by sentence, paragraph, word, line, character,
beginning and end of text in visitble window and in scrolling window,
setting bookmarks and more.
For your MacBook, look for the description that says, "On a
laptop . . ."
This page also covers items like setting tabs, selecting text, and
spell checking, and will probably answer many of the questions
you haven't had a chance to ask yet <smile>.
HTH,
Cheers,
Esther
