1. QuickNav is used for general VoiceOver navigation with the benefit of
using it with one hand only. You can also access the virtual control
VoiceOver has called the rotor which allows you amongst other things to
navigate by characters words or lines.
2. You should use vo-arrow keys or arrow keys alone with QuickNav
enabled for a better experience navigating and using the mac. The
ability to use the tab key is for those new to the mac and are coming
from Windows.
3. Interacting and uninteracting are primarily used in lists, tables and
toolbars. Any other controls can be activated the moment they're focused
on either via tab or vo-arrow keys or arrow keys alone when QuickNav is
enabled.
Hope any or all of these help.

Hi All, I have been coming to terms with a Mac for over 6 weeks now on a
daily basis and a little before that from time to time. However there
are some concepts I really cannot come to work out which by now should
be fairly obvious to me. Hope someone can clarify these for me.
At this point I would like to say I have good experience of Windows and
it is because of this I am finding some of these Mac concepts difficult
rather than them being intuitive.
Here goes then,
1. I think as a rule of thumb quic nav is mainly used for navagating the
web but not otherwise. Is this correct?
2. While I know that single key navagation can be used with the tab key,
I cannot work out when I need to tab and when I need to vo right arrow.
3. Interacting and uninteracting, I just don't know when and when not to
do this. When someone has guided me they have said to interact and now
uninteract, left to my own devices I cannot make a decision as to when
to interact and when not to.
Sorry if these are silly questions but I think once I have clarification
on these I will have moved forward quite a pace with my Mac.
