Hi all, Here's another tip I wish I'd known about a long time ago. Note that the below keystrokes use the f keys, so on a macbook or apple keyboard you may need to hold down the function key, depending on your settings. Also, none of these requires Voiceover to be on, which is why I said they are mainstream. While I know we are all vo users, these are good to know if vo quits on you, if a sighted person likes using the keyboard and asks how you get around without a mouse, if you simply find one of these more convenient, and so forth. So, here we go: Control-f2: go to menu bar (same as vo-m) ctrl-f3: go to dock (same as vo-d) ctrl-f4: move between open applications (same as cmd-tab, add shift to go backward) ctrl-f5: move to or from toolbar, if present ctrl-f8: go to status menus (same as vo-m twice) So, now you know. I like the ctrl-f5 command, and I often use ctrl-f3 to go to the dock because it's easier to find than fo-d, but that's just me. Again, though, these are not dependent on Voiceover being on, though cmd-tab is not either so I don't know why apple included a second application switching command.
