Hello Kim,
Have you, by any chance, turned on Quick Nav by accident? Try pressing the left
and right arrow keys together and see whether VoiceOver says "Quick Nav off".
Quick Nav changes the behaviour of VO quite drastically but it's extremely

Hi Mark,
I've never tried command down arrow for opening anything. I just tried it on an
app in the dock and on the applications folder and nothing happened. i had
quick nav on, so I turned it off, thinking that would make a difference, maybe.
Still nothing. command down arrow does nothing here.
I do not have personal experience with parallels. but there have been notes on

There are lots of text navigation commands in VoiceOver but you must interact

VO-a does read from current position and VO-b reads from the beginning.
However, you can read by sentence and by paragraph, too.
