Hi Chris
When you entering your password you will need to slide your finger across
the qwerty keyboard and then stop on the relevant character, so you will
hear the character you are about to type and there should be no problems
entering your password!
Remember you have Voice Over turned on and the aim of it is to tell you what
key you are about to type amongst other things.

Hi Jackie.
Actually I was thinking this could be interesting. How on earth can new
users enter a password and get it right. I mean I would be able to do it
once I am confident enough in typing but yes I do agree about someone
helping me with that, since all I will hear are clicks, which is fair
enough. Is there perhaps a way of learning to type on the touch? I like the
touch typing method but I would still need to practice it. I am also
thinking of getting an Apple wireless keyboard. How much am I expected to
pay for one of these? I jut think it will speed up my typing that is all.
Many thanks.
Take care.
