Hi Andrew, I’m sorry to hear you are getting blind. Ask as much as you want here in this list. A lot of great experts share their knowledge. You could also have a look on applevis.com <http://applevis.com/>. Very rich.
Press CMD + Option + v instead of just CMD + v to move an element in the Finder. Scrivener for Mac is also a great tool which is quite accessible to VoiceOver. Unfortunately Word isn’t as accessible as it could be. In this point I’m very disappointed from Microsoft. They could really do better.
