[mac4theblind] Re: mac book air question

    I think it depends on how you have the use F1, f2, etc keys as standard 
function keys, checked in System Preferences.  However, I don't have a Mac Book 
Air, so I don't know for sure.  On my Mac Book Pro, the shift with the Fn key 
and then using the VO keys with the arrows creates the pay cup, page down, home 
and end keys.
