Yes, that was my concern. As VoiceOver users, most of us depend on the
keyboard commands more than the average sighted person does. So
generally, I assume that they are accurate in the menus, whether they
are dimmed or not, whether they are consistent with other parts of the
operating system or not. I usually go to the menus to get this kind of
information and rely on its accuracy and usability. So it would be nice
if Apple would at least add move to the edit menu in the Finder, but it
is up to them. I will keep copying and moving my folders and files with
Command c followed by command option V, whether it ever shows up in the
menus or not!

Hello Mary,
My reading from your last message is that you want to know why there
is a cut command in the Edit menu of Finder and yet it does not work.
This is for consistency sake, when one creates a program in MacOs, the
system provides some default menus.
The Apple, Application, File, Edit Window and Help menus are available
in in all applications, and most of the items within those menus are
also standard and have default positions. All the developer can do is
disable items that are not relevant like cut in the Finder, or copy
and cut when nothing is selected.
Every Macintosh since 1991 has had an Edit menu with Cut Copy and
Paste in that order and for probably the last 20 years, the Undo and
Re-Do commands were added above the cut command. If you look at the
Edit menu in the finder it should say, cut dimmed, this means that the
cut operation is not currently available.
Cheeers!

I don’t know why I am still seeing cut command x in the edit menu of
my Finder. I am running Ventura 13.3.1. Am I somehow doing
something wrong? Anyway, I do know to copy and move files and do it
all the time. I just don’t understand why I see cut in the edit menu
in the finder. It seems sort of weird.

The commands are correct. Command C to copy. Command + Option + V to
move instead of paste.

Hi ,
Maybe I was not clear. I want to cut a document and move it to a
folder. What is the command for it? I tried doing a command x and
it did not do it. I do not no if I did something wrong.
Thanks

Hi all,
I was wondering what is the command to cut a document to move it
to a folder in documents? Thanks
