Ok, sometimes when I am trying to select items noncontinuously I run into this 
really frustrating issue. I press VO command space and the thing gets 
unselected. Then I press it again and it reselects it like you said. However, 
once I try to press VO down arrow, I can't go to the next item so that I can 
press VO command space again or go down to the next one. So, I never get down 
the list. The manual says to turn cursor tracking off, but that didn't work 
either. I am not sure this makes sense, but doing this particular procedure has 
driven me crazy. IO got it to work once, but I can't get it to work every time. 
So what am I doing wrong here? 

Regards, 
Gigi
