That's interesting about the Adobe plugin. I guess I never installed
it or something because I was able to read those PDF manuals with no
problem in preview. I also appreciate the other comments about
Shift-VO-M not working well in Safari; wasn't aware of that being a
problem. I'll have to keep
Hi,
If you go into /Library/Internet PlugIns and Trash the Adobe PDF Preview
PlugIn, Safari should assume to use the Preview app instead which normally is
usable within Safari. That doesn't fix the initial problem but does eliminate
the inaccessible Adobe problem.

Maybe I missed it but I was able to navigate to the English link just
fine but hitting enter popped a new page and loaded the PDF which
triggers the inaccessible Adobe PDF plugin. So, I tried command+enter
and option+enter but both just popped a new window with the same
inaccessible PDF plugin.
Hello Steve,
I just had a look at that page and found that VO-Shift-m on one of the language
links gave me useless stuff like Reload page, whereas bringing the mouse and
doing Control-Click using the trackpad gave me the full contextual menu for a
link.
I find that VO-Shift-m rarely works in S

Thanks for that additional information that actually worked for these goofy
links. My first usual response is to use the context menu but this is a good
alternative. I'll bet I would still have to use Option+Return after pasting
into the address box. No real problem, at least there is a way t
Hi Esther,
It didn't quite work for me as you described I found that I had to do
Option+Return in order to get the link to download. I also had to do the
Command+L step from within the PDF view; I was originally trying to do it by
closing that PDF view first but that put the original page URL
Hello Steve,
To get the actual URL for a link, navigate to the link and press VO-Shift-u.
You can then copy that URL by pressing VO-Shift-c which copies the last spoken
phrase to the clipboard.
Cheers,
Anne

Hi Steven,
I've found some web pages, viewed with Safari, where you have to first
interact with the link before getting the options to download, etc.

I've found some other sites that are badly coded so that focus doesn't

That stuff is all at home right now so can't get you the exact URL to
that Best Buy page right now but one could look for the new HD radio
that is "accessible." I went into the download/support area and was
under the header for documentation. In there, there is a list of 3
links; one for English,
I'm not sure further on the type of links these were except that
hitting the return key along with any of the modifier keys like
Option, Command, or any combination, would just pop me into the
preview of that PDF. I never saw that file down in my downloads
folder. It's like they just popped into
If I had an example I could poke at it to find out what they did but I
commonly see fake links made out of text that triggers some javascript
and doesn't really link to another page. That could be why the
contextual menu is not working normally.

I can just say that when you are on a link and hold down option and press enter

I have two somewhat related questions here.
1. I've noticed that some links identified by VO as normal links, will
not yield the typical context menu when I press Shift-VO-m; I just get
the menu with 5 items and are all full page related. But other links
on the same page do work properly and will
