Hi Chris and Others, In order to be viewable by VoiceOver, folders in your dock have to be set to view content as "List" and display as "Folder". The default is to display as "Stack" and view as either "Fan" or "Automatic". In this mode, VoiceOver doesn't display the contents in a format you can browse when you try to view them. Use your contextual menu (VO-Shift-M) to set up these options one at a time.
