Yeah, it’s kind of weird how it seems to work. You have to VO-space on the result you want and then there are a couple of levels of interaction involved. Ultimately, I tab to the button that either contains the price or the Get button to install the app. Take Care John D. Panarese Director

I was right. It was in the drag and drop part. Mouse tracking was on when it should not ahve been. Fixed that and installed the app. Now I am back to figuring out how to access the Roboform menu which is dimmed. The rb toolbar is enabled, so not sure what to do here but will contact tech sup

Hi, So, if the Drag & Drop worked, then you should be able to close the window you're in. Then, press cmd-shift-a which will open the Applications folder. Once in the Applications folder, navigate through until you locate the app that you drug over. If it is there, land on it, then press cm

You can copy and paste the app. In the installation folder you downloaded, Find the file with the .app extension (which is actually a folder) and press command-c. You should still be in finder at this point. press command-shift-a to go to the apps folder. Press command-v to paste it. htH, teres

Tim, Regardless of how I do it, I end up at the installer window. There are 3 buttons in the group. The app itself, the app folder and the uninstall button. I drag the app to the folder and drop it...I think. This is where I am stuck. Quote of the nanosecond . . . Promise me you'll always

After uninstalling the app, I am now trying to install it. I must be missing a step tho. I open the installer, it brings up the window where I drag the app to the app folder. This is where I cannot figure what the next step is. I know I should get another dialog that has the install button o

Hi, If you run the updates from the Purchased Items window of the AppStore (cmd-4), it may list older updates that aren’t necessary along with the newer ones. When running Software Update from the Apple menu or the Updates window of the AppStore (cmd-5), which by the way are actually the same

Hi all, I just downloaded the vlc media player. The instructions in the read me file say you are suppose to drag and drop the .app file to the folder where you want to put it. I know there is a drag and drop process for voiceover, and I'd rather not go there just yet, as a rather new Mac user. C
