My problem with this method is that when I try to use the JAWS Cursor to
move around, JAWS reads too much information and it's not clear where
the curser truly is. For example, arrowing downward will read something
like "Graphic 516, source, library, all 27 genres, all 208 artists, all
300 albums." The next down arrow might read "Alternative Radio head,
Okay Computer." it doesn't tell me whether the cursor is in the genre,
album or track name category. In fact, since I can see the screen on my
other iTunes computer, I can see that sometimes the genre will be
highlighted but the track title may be spoken. For those of you who
have used iTunes but can't se the screen, it is partitioned in such a
way that there is one source list along the extreme left of the screen.
After that the rest of the screen is divided this way. There are three
columns which are the genre, artist and album title. Below these
divisions is another area of screen real estate that shows the full
track title, time, artist, album and genre again. What is highlighted
on screen seems to have no relationshipto what JAWS actually says. This
is based on the fact that Ican see and hear simultaneously. What to do?

Hi Kevin, I don't have entire cds in my library. I just have a bunch of
song. Yes you can select whatever song you want to play. What you have
to do is route yourjaws to pc. I use my two and eight on the numeric
keypad. I arrow down until I find the song I want. I then use my insert
four and six to make suree that the jaws cursor is on the first word of
thee song title. Then I preess the left mouse button on the numeric
keypad. If for some reason the songs don't show up I arrow down until
jaws says search. Again I use my insert plus four or six to make sure
that the jaws cursor is on the word search. I then press the left mouse
button on the numeric keypad. I was ablee to get an account setup with
the apple Itunes store, but I haven't yet explored it with the Itunes
software, but I did see somehotkeys listed for moving around in the
store. Look in the documentation that is with the Itunes software.
