Hi: are you saying VO and then downarrow before using the rotor? Because the
Appendix A "Commands and Gestures" simply says VO and then use the rotor. I've
tried that without arrowing down, and nothing happens.
Thanks.

If you use your VO keys which are command and option how down then like on the
iPhone use the rotor action on your trackpad turn to fingers anticlockwise and
that should do it for you all the best

I always tell the voiceover cursor to just follow the mouse cursor. That way,
the trackpad won’t get in my way.

No, you cannot, at least not to my knowledge. I just get used to it. You can
though enable something where if you hit, I think its command or option it will
disable use of the mouse pad sort of, but I have not found that too reliable.
I’ve been using a mac for about 11 years now and am so used to the mouse pad
it’s no big anymore.

Am I able to disable the mouse pad on this machine. It seems to be getting in
my way in trying to learn the MacBook Air?
Thank you.

Hello all,
I have had a strange issue with my Wifi connection the past few days. I don’t
remember this ever happening before. My network is showing a full connection, 3
out of 3 bars, and the computer is showing that it is connected to the proper
network. But when I try to load Safari, or connect to Express VPN, the VPN gets
as far as 35% and stops. Then, if I try to do a restart, it doesn’t fix the
issue. Safari will say web content instead of loading my home page. So the only
way to fix it is if I shut the computer completely down, and start up again.
This happens especially if I leave the computer idle for quite some time. Any
thoughts or ideas on what could be causing the issue?
Thanks,
Juliette************
