Eric: I've tried working with that Vo-lock thing, and found it didn't work with many of the keys. I'm in agreement that while I love what Apple has done, I find myself wishing for a 6-fingered hand a lot of times:) I don't think you can re-assign Vo keys, but I'll enquire of the guys next time I go in for a training session. In the mean time, keep those fingers scramblin':)

When I press the keys I assigned I jump to the desk top or doc from any application. I'm sure you could set this up for the Documents folder but I just jump to the desk top then use the built in commands from there. the bigger question for me is can't we have a single key to operate voice over? I find it very difficult on my Mac Book to hold down option Control and shift with my left hand then hunt around with my right hand to find the D key to get to the short cut for the desk top. If for example the caps lock key could be the VO keys then I could leave my fingers on the home row and basically reach all the keyboard commands. Anyone know of a way to assign VO to be the caps lock key or have another idea? I suppose one help could be to use VO lock keys, that is"Option Control Semi colon." I find that this also tangles up my fingers .

It doesn't work here. Of course, command shift d is the "send again" when in mail, but I just tried it while in ITunes and while in the doc and it didn't do anything. >>> >>> Mary >>> >>> Mary Otten >>> [email protected] >>> >>> >>> -- >>> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >>> To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. >>> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. >>> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >>> >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >> To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. >> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
