Re: Moving a Character at a time

Hello David, I suspect you have Quick Nav turned on. If this is the case, you have to use VO navigation in text documents. I think you'd find it easier to turn Quick Nav off while editing text. Without quick Nav, the normal ways of doing things apply. Move by character - left and right

Re: Lion Mail, hiding read messages.

Re: Moving a Character at a time

You can just use the arrow keys to move by caracter. To move by word, hold the option key while using the left and right arrow keys. Note that voiceover reads things here a bit differently than how windows screen readers read. When you press right arrow, then press left, you will hear the same
