Should I still be able to get into the quick start guide now that I've
already run the setup program? Control-Option-Command-F8 does nothing.

David and all,
The key command for the quick start is Control-Option-Command-F8, not
Control-Option-F8. The latter just launches the VO utility.

Hi John,
I imagine you have moved on, but something that will help you out a lot
if
you can get it going at this point is the vo quickstart tutorial It
would
have come up automatically after the music stopped had you not turned on
vo
but if you can get it to work at this point, the keystroke for it is:
control-option-f8.
To navigate through a dialog and hear all its info, use
control-option-arrows. Space toggles checkboxes, sets radio buttons and
activates pop ups so that you can make selections. when you find what
you
want in a pop up, press enter to set it. I often tab through the items
and
then use vo keys with left arrow to hear the text of an Item if I am not
certain what it is.
When ever I do a new mac setup, I have to use an apple keyboard to get
it
going.
There is a setting in that dialogbox to choose the type of account you
have,
pop, imap or .mac. Once you have seleced the account type, it should
accept
your email address. .mac is an email account that comes with a .mac
subscription or trial. .mac is an apple hosted service that provides a
bunch of features like storage, mail and web hosting.
