Hey Tim, Again thanks for kicking me in the head to remove gmail from my computer and migrating everything over to iCloud, as that part worked well, and since completely removing my gmail account from the desktop my computer is back to running much better, and mac mail isn't having any problems.
I had to use VO command shift space bar to actually enter anything in a text field on iCloud, tabbing and shift tabbing did not take me in to the text fields. Will have to check if I have that setting checked that you mentioned as I thought I did.
