Hum! That doesn't work here. If I type into the search box and get the horrific racket, pressing right arrow just takes me to the end of the input field. If I VoiceOver+Right arrow, I land on the radio button which always defaults to "Albums" as the active control. So clearly I'm doing something wrong here.

Oh, first I made sure the songs button was selected, although I really don't know if this is necessary or not. I just tried this to make double sure it works. You can either right arrow or vo right arrow over to the results once you put in your search quarry into the box. I looked for all my Enya stuff, for example, and it brought up the first four things, then there was a button for 85 more things. hth, Caitlyn On 2013-01-02, at 3:02 PM, Gordon & Lynne <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Zack > > OK, perhaps one of these people who say they like the interface better now > might care to explain how one would do things like search for items.
