Hi all, Mike, thanks so much for answering my questions, i'm yet to get to grips with mail completely, but actually just found your reply by accident while doing a spotlight search for something else, so i'm replying to you on the mac! I'm really starting to like voice over, and today did some surfing of some sites which i would use regularly, and with relative success two, so thinking it won't be that difficult to get to grips with safari after all, i've now found the tab bar, so happy i can go to addresses like i can in windows, but is there a shortcut like in windows for this action? Also, i am trying to install adium, but it doesn't seem to be working very well, there doesn't seem to be a set up assistant, should there be? Thanks so much for all your help so far, Kerie On 25 Apr 2010, at 17:29, ch...@q.com wrote:
