Re: Absolutely at my wit's end with web browser busy nonsense

To be a little more clear, VoiceOver is a completely separate application from Mail, Safari, Chrome or other programs. When VoiceOver says “Mail busy” it means that VoiceOver has asked for something from the other program and after a reasonable amount of time (perhaps one half a second)

It happens with Google Chrome as well, and it freezes completely and does not allow me to do a thing, no matter what I press. It’ll say “VoiceOver off,” but not “VoiceOver on,” and it will be silent for a long time, or say “busy,” no matter what I press, though I can almost always get out and
