Christine, It's time for a work-around. Yeah! Open the folder that contains the files for the book in question. Find the file with a XML extension. Press the return on it & change the X in XML to HT for HTML. You'll be asked if sure you wish to make the change. Press return to accept the default option. Then, VO-SpaceBar on the changed file to open & read with Safari.
Hope this helps, CJ On Oct 1, 2014, at 7:50 AM, Christine Grassman <cgrassman1...@gmail.com> wrote: > Good day/night all: > > Yesterday, I purchased a MacBook Air.
