Hi,
Glad you are enjoying your new mac so much!
To make using safari easier, you can hit vo u, and this will bring up the web
roar. You can navigate the rotar with vo right or left arrow through the
different elements, also use up and down arrow, and when you get to the one you
want, do vo space. this brings you to the actual element on the page, then you
can navigate as usual with vo right arrow, vo space, etc-whatever you want to
do with that particular element.
The item chooser is also quite useful(vo i, then down arrow through the list,
or hit the first few letters of what you are looking for to go to it). this is
only h elpful, though, if you know what you want, because it brings up a list
of what’s on the entire page, so can be quite long!
I hope this helped, and that I was clear enough(on first cuppa for the day!)
Cait

Hello all,
I wanted to give my first impressions of my Mac now that I have had it for a
bit over a week. Overall I really like this machine. The battery life is
absolutely wonderful. The start up time is blazingly fast compared to my
Windows machine. It is also nice having the default apps on the machine work
right out of the box. It was also very easy to get Voiceover up and running
on my own. I am slowly making this my daily driver for my basic tasks like
e-mail and internet browsing. I am finding Safari to be a bit difficult to
work with at times though. I seem to get stuck on elements in web pages quite
often especially on pages that are a bit more complex like Amazon for
instance. I do like how I can enable the track commander when in Safari and
navigate the web like I am using my iPhone. Now that I have the mail app
setup I am starting to like it. I do find it a bit more difficult to install
apps but I am sure it will get easier with time.
