OK. I won't be posting anything I find on the Apple community forum again. I had not looked at iTunes 12 when I search for information and some idiot claimed that the library and such was under playlists. It didn't make sense, but I thought it might be a reliable source. Just another example of you can't believe everything you read, especially on the internet.
So, now that I have updated to iTunes 12, it isn't that bad, just very different. I am using Windows 8.1. Here are some hot keys that might help: control+1 = Music Control+2 = Movies Control+3 = TV Shows Control+4 = Podcasts Control+5 = iTunes U Control+6 = Auydio Books Control+7 = Apps Control+8 = Tones Control+9 = iTunes Radio Control+j = View Options Control+Shift+U = Show Up Next D = Show Duplicate Items Control+Shift+3 Show Downloads You still have to do some tabbing around and experimenting to see what works best for you, but you can still get to songs, artists, albums, etc. I'm using Window-Eyes and so far, everything seems to be accessible.

There are still radio buttons which you can get to perfectly fine with voiceover and arrows. Besides that, there are shortcuts: try starting with cmd-1 and see what happens. But all they do is check the radio buttons which you can also check with vo-space. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

Are there keyboard shortcuts for the buttons, or do you use tab? I don't think I would like tabbing all over the place. I know iTunes for the Mac used to have some shortcuts for getting to music, movies, etc., like option f5 or some such. Barring that, I'd probably use a touchpad. But the idea of tabbing everywhere seems very clunky to me.

She finds it to be much more visually appealing and easier to use. ,the device icon appears when the device is plugged in. There is no longer anything that is labelled library. There is home, music, movies, more (podcasts, iTunes U, audio books, apps, tones (ring tones), internet radio, exit), and finally the device icon. Visually, these are on the bar directly underneath the bar with the play buttons.
