Hi Paula and developers, Yes! that was exactly the issue that I had and reported a year ago. When I navigated to the table on the general tab, VoiceOver said "empty table", and didn't show the items there. (I was trying to uncheck the box for one of these items, and I had to do this because at that time Apple's release of java updates was running behind current software.)
