Re: Bluetooth braille using Catalina the 10 point.15.3. Please read below?
An update on the situation. I spent about an hour on the phone with tech support for human wear. And unfortunately the same problem existed even with the support professional. This issue has been thoroughly documented. I’ll probably write you all an update when I find out what is being done to fix this problem. Just me normal consumer think the problem is largely breast in Cupertino. This use of a security code generated by my Mac for an adaptive technology device is ready to kill us! If you can exempt speakers and things that people want for purely entertainment purposes why is it that the blind must put in codes and all sorts of specialty things in order to access our hardware and use non visual access techniques. And they wonder why we have a 70% unemployment rate. This is why people won’t hire Russ. Long story short the big boys and operating systems need to understand that if they are going to help people get employed they need to reduce the barriers to employment. That’s not just on the state agencies.

Re: How do I find the USB3 port on my Mac?
All ports directly on your Mac should be the same type. Since older USB standards will work with newer ports , it makes little sense to include USB2 ports on a machine that supports USB3.

Re: Dragging And Dropping With VO In Catalina
Thanks Tim and ET. The mouse commands were the ones I was/am using. (Always good to be sure I remembered them correctly Thank You!). The problem seems to be intermittent so I must be doing something wrong. Tim, I've mainly tried to drag and dropfrom documents to the desk top, and vise versa. I have more than seven hundred items to move (the Mac was not well set up) so I really want to get this working smoothly. Incidentally any suggestions on how to simplify and make the moving of all these files and folders as quick and easy as possible would be much appreciated.
