Carolyn, I wonder where you're trying to open the applications folder? When I'm in finder, and hit cmd-N to open a new finder window, it automatically puts me in the home folder. My apps folder is not visible in this window. What I then do is stop interacting with the area and VO-left to the side-bar and interact and arrow down once. When re-interacting, I'm now in the scroll area. This is of course using the icons mode. If in table view you need to expand rather than open. Guess I'm trying to understand where it is you're having the issue in order to see if I can replicate it. And the cmd-shift-A command also works amazingly. This is my preferred choice but as I was saying, I'm trying to understand where you're attempting to vo-space on apps.
