Update: I. Just had a notification about updating to Taho. I was able to kill that in the usual way by typing VO N, arrowing down to the update and pressing ENTER, followed by VO CMDSPACE,which yielded the options I would have wanted. I arrows down to Close and hit ENTERto close the notification. I have no idea why that oneworkednormally when others,likelowbattery notifications simply won’t work right. It’s a random failure that I wish I understood.
