Hi Marlaina, to select non-contiguous items:
1. Navigate to the first item. If VO cursors are not following each other, then use VO-cmd-f5 (add FN on a laptop) to bring focus to where VO is. 2. Now turn off cursor tracking by pressing VO-shift-f3 (add the FN on a laptop). 3. Navigate to the next item you wish to select. 4. Press VO-cmd-space. 5. Repeat #3 and #4 until you have all items selected. 6. Press cmd-c to copy or begin dragging or do whatever you wish to do. 7. Turn cursor tracking back on using VO-shift-f3 (add FN on a laptop). don't forget to do #7 as it will frustrate you to no end when cursor tracking is off and you're trying to do things you're used to doing. HTH. Later...
