Try this, when VO is focused on the document name, bring up the context menu by pressing vo plus shift, plus M. Then go to get info. In there down a bit there is something called file name and extension disclosure triangle ( I can’t remember exactly what it’s called), Vo space on that if the disclosure triangle is not already expanded, and the disclosure triangle will open up. Then try changing the filename and extensions there. Good luck, I’ve never tried changing a file extension that way because the return key has always worked for me. I am using the latest mac OS, BTW.
Also, I could have sworn at some point the context menu used to have a rename option but either I’m thinking of a different application or it has disappeared. :) Christina On Nov 6, 2013, at 7:51 AM, Christine Grassman <[email protected]> wrote: > I must be missing something, because whenever I hit enter on a document name, > it opens. > (grin) > > On Nov 6, 2013, at 8:29 AM, alia robinson <[email protected]> wrote: > >> don’t open it, go to your file list, press enter on the file instead of >> opening it. you can then rename it by deleting the xml part, and type in >> html, then open the file again.
