I don't trust the screen reader button. It's antiquated and lacks some of the
features. It took them 8 years to add some of their headings? Yeah. Smile
works but just a bit better. Focus is still lost when trying to go through
reviews. You are kicked someware else. I still use smile though as Im' donating
to our local chapter I'm a part of here. They probably love me right now lol!

There is a screen reader button on amazon you can use and also the
smile.amazoncom seems to work a it better for me than the main site and you
get the benefit of having some of your money diverted to your favorite
charity.

Amazon though is a bare. No matter what you do focus is lost. They say
they are working on accessibility but I'll believe it when I see it.
Blessings and happy Wednesday

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!)

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.
Regards,
Greg Wocher ************
