The command-return will do this you are interacting with text. Unfortunately, at least with older MacOS, one could not bridge a span of text using this. 1. Start interacting until VoiceOver says interact with text. 2. Move to start location. 3. press VO-return. VO says select. 4. Move to end loc

Good catch. The Search box is at the far right of the toolbar, and the command to get there after interacting is VO + END. That’s what happens when I type stuff in a hurry, and don’t proof read. I agree that VO + F, should go to the Search box, but the original poster said that VO + F, was not w

I wonder if you have Group and/or sorting enabled for the desktop. You should be able to check by pulling up the contextual menu. There should be a check box next to grouping if it is enabled. II expect you at least want to turn off grouping, and If you like icons on your desktop where you plac

Hello, First of all, at least for me the search box is at the end of my Toolbar not the beginning, so I would expect VO-ENd to get there. Secondly, when in the primary Mail pane, I always find that command-option-F gets me to the Mailbox search box. The command-F search functionality is usually
