Hi Donna,
there are 2 slightly different methods. You can double tap and hold, speak,
then let go. After this, you’ll have to find and double tap the send button. I

Hi,
Haven’t tried this as I don’t appear to have too many Menu Extras, but, in VO
Utility, under the Visuals pane, make sure that your VO Cursor is at its
smallest. The smaller it is, the more likely it will be able to locate smaller
items.

Hi Pam,
I’m having a positive experience creating my mailboxes right on the

usually then go to the menu bar to mailbox and select new. i put in the name
in the edit field and hit enter the new mailbox is made.
I must admit, as a general rule, I dis able everything I can from the
menubar so it is as uncluttered as it can be, as I’ve often had times when I
couldn’t see things I knew should be there, whichever way I tried to get to
them.

Stick with list view, much easier to navigate. In list view you
navigate up and down. In icon view you navigate from left to right or
vice versa.

Faisal, the key combination FN+CONTROL+OPTION+COMMAND+ UP and DOWN ARROWS works
for you? That is to say, all four keys to the left of the spacebar plus UP or

You might try rooting the mouse to the menu item and actually doing a
mouse click, sometimes that works when double tapping the trackpad
doesn't. Dropbox is an example of that. Otherwise, I would look through
your status menus and see if there are any you can remove.
