Jake, thanks for the suggestions. I will try them. Do you mind if I ask more questions later? There seems to be well, much to learn. :-)

I just got my Mac Book Air after Christmas, and love it. To open a website in Safari, press Command L and then type in the URL. When Safari is first launched though you will automatically be placed in the address bar. To exit a website hit Command W, and to close out of Safari altogether Command Q. AppleVis is probably where you want to look first for training. Go to www.applevis.com . I’ve also found Google Chrome to be a great browser, and Chromevox is very good. Google Chrome works almost the same as Safari. Hth. Jake JAKE JOEHL [email protected] > On Apr 27, 2014, at 11:11 AM, Mark <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hello, I am new to this list.
