Hi, interact with the list of items you want to select, starting on the first
item you want to pick.
Lock your vo keys with vo semi colon.
Turn off cursor tracking with vo shift f3
use down arrow and when you get to the items you want to add to your list of
items to select, hit command return.
Yes. Control-option-t will identify text attributes, including color, size
and font.

It is not necessary to turn off Cursor Tracking when selecting non-contiguous

Do you need to install flash before installing the extension? What does this

The zoom in the system preferences is basically a magnifying glass that you
move around the screen. The motion can cause dizziness.

From a technical standpoint the VMWare fusion virtual machine file is
just a file and you can move it around at will to another machine or
make copies on the same machine. As far as Microsoft is concerned, I'm

You can use the same copy of fusion, as long as you have the serial
number to activate it. Windows 7 will probably ask you to reactivate
it, but it shouldn't be a problem.

Hi,
Here you go. This process will work in most versions of the MacOS.
1. Log in and mount the volume you wish to always connect to.
2. Go to the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences.
3. VO-space on the Login Items tab.
4. Navigate right to the Add Login Item button.
5. Press cmd-shift
Right, if you copy it, it will change a bunch of things, such as the network
address. Moving is definitely preferable.
