OK, I presume that he was simply using things like shift+down arrow, and the 
like to select the text.  Correct?

I've personally hardly ever used it, but If memory serves correctly, I think he 
can also move to the beginning of what he wants selected, hit vo+return to 
start selecting, navigate to the end of his block selection, then hit vo+return 
again to stop selecting.  Then, have him hit vo+F6 to see what, if anything is 
selected.

Tell us if that method works for him.  Also you didn't tell us what browser 
he's using.  I'd presume probably Safari, but being that Chrome is totally 
accessible as well, I just want to make sure.

Chris.

  Subject: issue from a friend


  Hello all,
  I recently was talking to a friend of mine who claims to be having issues 
when trying to copy and paste text from the Internet fromhis Mac onto a 
different location. I heard him try and mess with the command, but Voiceover 
kept repeating the first thing he was selecting all the time, and we made sure 
that things like quick nav were off and the like. I believe he's using a 
Macbook Pro 2013 but he is also using the latest version of Yosemeti. He's 
tried to restart the machine and VO, but to no avail. If any suggestions could 
be offered, that would greatly be appreciated.
  Blessings to oyou all.
