I’m not sure if you have gone through the VoiceOver Tutorial on the Mac? This helped me get started the first time I got on a Mac,. With VoiceOver on, while holding down Ctrl+Opt+Cmd, press F8 to start the tutorial. Then just listen and do what the voice tell you to do. Press Esc to leave the tutorial. Hope this helps. Gary
