Do that only if you are selecting multiple items that are not in order. Use
shift to highlight the items if they are in order. Don’t use noncontiguous
selection for just one item to delete.

Hi ,
This has been some what helpful. I have been able to do the VO command and hit
enter and it does select the item but when I hit comand backspace it does not
delete . Am I doing something wrong?

To avoid confusion, Backspace is a Windows key. Windows uses

Another good reason to learn to go to the menu bar for shortcuts you
do not know. And its not a good idea to guess at them for this could
lead to undesirable results.

Command-backspace sends items to the trash that you have selected. You can
hold down the shift key and arrow down or up to select items that are
contiguous. If not. Press VO-command-enter on each item and then press the

Hi all,
I have items in my download folder and I want to delete the items . What is
the command to select the items and delete the items in the folder? I have
tried just hitting my delete key or shift delete and neither of those works.

Hi Donna,
DMG stands for Disk Image. When you download one, press command-O to
open it. Then if there's an application in it (it has an APP
extension) copy that file to the Apps folder. Then focus on the disk
image and eject it with Command-E.
