Hi david
Many thanks for your below instructions. I have carried out what you have suggested, and I can now open the download's folder with VO plus spacebar. However, this does not work for the documentt's folder on the dock, I hear VO saying "showing stats or stacks" - sorry can't hear too good <smiles>. . I have tried pressing command plus O but this also doesn't avtivate. Please could you help? best wishes Henry -----Original Message----- From: mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net [mailto:mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net] On Behalf Of David Griffith Sent: 21 October 2014 00:19 To: OS X & iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Trying to open the download and document folder on the Dock?
