Hello Simon,
I've found that unchecking the shortcut for Spotlight allows me to
switch input methods in both directions. I find there is no need to
use Command-Space bar for Spotlight as VO-M three times works
perfectly well.
Cheers,
Anne

Dear Anne,
I have carried out the suggested actions but the result is I fear
the same: I cannopt change the coomand+space shortcut for changing
thep previous input source. On top of that, the check box next to
this item be comes unchecked when I try to change the shortcut key
to a new one. It is strange indeed. The only other option is to try
to do this with a sighted person. I haven't had a chance to grab
anybody yet. I will let you and Esther know what happens if a
sighted person attempts to change the shortcut using the physical
mouse. I have tried all comibinations: routing the mouse to the
voiceover cursor and linking the mouse to follow the voiceover
cursor via the Voiceover utility. Both have failed.
Many thanks for bearing with me in trying to solve this strange
behaviour.
With best wishes
Simon

Hello Simon,
Your machine seems to be behaving oddly. Perhaps it would be a good
idea to zap the PRAM. To do this, shut down your computer, then
hold down the Command, Option, P and R keys and press the power
key. Keep the four keys held down until you've heard the chime
three times, then let them go and your machine will boot normally.
After that, do Repair Disk Permissions. I can't promise that this
will help, but it's worth a try.
Cheers,
Anne
