Thank you, Michelle, I’d forgotten about using that. Still, it seems really strange that there is no document or website laying out the common shortcuts (as there are so many for using non-Braille Bluetooth keyboards).. Regards Harry > On 15 Feb 2019, at 04:30, Michelle emails wrote: > > hi >

Hi, I was able to partially duplicate your issue when I used ctrl-f8. Once focus moved up to the Menu Extras, only one item was available. To fix this, I let go of the VO keys, then pressed the right arrow, then pressed the VO keys once again and was able to navigate normally in the Menu Extr

Hi, It probably wouldn't hurt to give them a note saying what the problem was. VO does this often when it comes to the buffer. I think what is happening is that VO is taking note of the various items on the page, for use by the Item Chooser or various rotor controls. Sometimes, even with my

Hi, Are you using VO-left/right to move through the Menu Extras? Menu Extras is a different animal, and does not allow simple arrow navigation. You must also use VO-space to activate. This behaviour is different than in the regular menus, but has been this way for quite a number of MacOS ver

This sounds like the Malware software is responding to focus and or mouse being on it in the Menu Extras area. If this is indeed the case, there might be a couple ways around it, or it might be possible for you to remove the Malware from the menu extras menu. You would do this by dragging the i
