Thank you very much, Jonathan.
Just little more detail; should I go to Menu, System Preference and then where?
To settings?
Thanks!

This is not the way it should work. My computer is much older than yours, and
so does not have a touchID power button. I suggest that you go into system
settings and turn off and back on touchID and see if that helps solve your
issue. I have found that sometimes I am not having arrow keys perform right
after sleep and I need to restart VoiceOver.

Hi, Group.
In Catleena days, when the computer went to sleep mode after remaining idle for
a while, pressing arrow-keys several times and touching the power-button used
to start VoiceOver and awake the computer to fully functional state.
Since Montray, however, VoiceOver doesn’t come up and the computer does not
come out of sleeping mode by pressing arrow keys repeatedly and by touching the
power button. VoiceOver starts only when I enter my password. The computer
doesn’t work even when Voiceover is running. For instance, Safari or TextEdit
do not work at all and do not accept any keystrokes.
When I try to restart the computer from the menu, Voiceover says:
‘Authentication Is Not Responding’ and I have to shut down the computer and
restart it. This is simply a big pain in the neck.
Is this a normal and accepted behavior now?
Is there any work around it?
Thanks!
