Dear Phil,
Thank you so much for this fantastic explanation! I appreciate the time
and effort you put into it very much! I've been away all day, but wanted
to let you know as soon as I could, how much I appreciate your
thoughtfulness! This is extremely helpful!

I just tried option clicking on the dropbox extras menu item using mouse
keys and it works.
In system prefs, go into the accessibility pane. Then, in the
accessibility features table, select mouse and trackpad. check the
"enable mouse keys" box to turn mouse keys on. then go into its options
(the next button to the right) , and enable the "press option key five
times" checkbox. Press the "done" button at the far right to exit mouse
keys options, then exit system prefs, and you're ready to go. try
pressing option key 5 times to turn on and off mouse keys to make sure
its working, you'll hear a series of ascending and descending clicks
indicating mouse keys on and off. .
Now, when you need a mouse button to click, use the USB keyboard numpad.
5 clicks the mouse, while 4 and 6 move it left and right, and 8 and 2
move it up and down.
I think There are sound effects somewhere you can turn on to let you know
the mouse is moving, and you can set it to speak the item under the mouse
in VO settings as well.
finally, you can check the mouse position with VO F5. Pressing it once
tells you what's under the mouse, pressing it again speaks the
coordinates relative to the screen, and a third press speaks the
coordinates relative to the current window.

Turn on mouse keys under accessibility un system prefs by going to the
options button under mouse keys and checking the box that say hit option
5 times. then after that hit option 5 times when you do the extras
menu and dropbox and hit option I. I think ester c an describe this to
you better then I can since I barely know how mouse keys work.
Hth.

what do you have? a laptop? Do you have a mouse? I don't know any way
to do an option click without a mouse or a trackpad of some kind,
either a standalone trackpad or one built into a laptop.
whatever you have, mouse or trackpad, hold down the option key and
either press the trackpad or execute a mouse click on the mouse. If
nothing else, you can get a simple USB mouse with right/left buttons
for less than $20 at any electronics store - it doesn't have to be an
Apple mouse.

depending on the dropbox version, you'll have to do an option click
on the dropbox extras menu item to get it to open. when focused on
the dropbox item in the extras menu, route the mouse to VO with
Command VO F5 and while holding down the option key, click the mouse
on your trackpad.

Subject: Dropbox Question
Hi Everyone,
I haven't used my Dropbox account for well over a year, but now
that I have my new Brailliant 40 BI, I want to be able to store
files and folders there to be shared between my iMac, iPod Touch
4th Generation, and my iPhone 4S. I just went to the Dropbox web
site and updated my account and then went to the Dropbox
application on my Doc on my iMac, but when I do that, I get the
message that "Dropbox has no windows!" What should I do to get
things rolling? Thanks for any help you can give me on this!
Best,
Desi
