I stoked up a Mac a few weeks ago when someone else was having a similar issue. Unfortunately, I have deleted my pearls of wisdom.


I will try to remember to check again tomorrow. Meanwhile, exactly what you enter will depend on the time format you have set. If I remember correctly, pressing Home is the first step. Then, if you want to go to 5 minutes and 5 seconds enter 00:05:05.00 assuming you have set time to hours, minutes, seconds and hundreds of seconds. I am trying, without success, to remember how to set time format on the Mac. I do remember that getting VoiceOver to read what you have entered requires a bit of digital gymnastics.


Let me know if you make no progress.

I want to enter the time numerically because I know about what time I
want and it may be a long file.

Hi.  I am using audacity on my Macbook pro using voiceover and I would
like to know how to go to a specific time entering it numerically.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
