                 Hi folks

Yesterday, I updated to iTunes 12, and I'm starting to wish I hadn't.
Unfortunately, at least on my machine running Windows 7 and Window-eyes
9, the only way I can browse the iTunes store is to turn browse mode off
with control plus shift plus a.  After that you can tab through the
different links and they can be activated, but you can't use the arrow
keys to actually read anything  such as song titles or other basic
information about the album or tv show you're looking at.

Here are the exact steps I'm taking to reproduce this, and it happens
every single time i try it.

1.  Open iTunes.

2.  Press your shift tab key combination until you hear, iTunes store
radio button unchecked, and then press the space bar to check it.  When
you do this the page will refresh and the contents of the store page
will load and you will hear a slight swoosh noise to indicate this is
happening.

3.  Now here's where it gets fun.  In earlier versions, you could easily
read the store page very similar to how a web page looks. It has links
and buttons and all the usual items you would expect.  This is where
Window-eyes reports no link or control.  If you press control plus shift
plus a to turn browse mode on, this seems to work a little and you can
read different links on the page.  You can press tab and shift tab, but
as I said above, you can't use the arrow keys.  I hope this is enough
info for folks. If anyone else is noticing this, i'm wondering if it's
possible to go back to an earlier version of iTunes 11 that was more
accessible? Or am i stuck with the current version and I'll just have to
hope that Apple will fix this in the next update?  Any help would be great!
Thanks
