Subject: I just bought an itunes store song on the Mac!!!
I had to resort to doing my first sign-in on a Windows machine. This was a bit tricky because after I hit the review button I could not hear the agreement with speech but could see it using the advance bar on my braillelite. When I found the agree button in braille, I pressed the router cursor above the "a" in agree. It took a few seconds but I was eventually transferred to another screen where my cursor was on "done" in braille. I again used the routing button corresponding to the beginning of the word and I was logged in.
I then went to the mac and signed in using the menus with no problem. Interacted with store in sources and tabbed to search; entered my search and pressed enter. Interacted with songs and found the price; checked where the mouse was and I think I used numpad5 but if your cursor is right other methods might work. got the purchased window and confirmed that i wanted to purchase. didn't find any confirmation but I quit itunes and started again and found a new purchases playlist and there was my song. When i pressed play I had to authorize the computer to play songs from my account but that was totally accessible. I am totally thrilled!!! I know this doesn't help people without a Windows computer--which I've only had for a few days now--but it is a solution until we are able to do it on the mac for those who have that option even without sighted help. Btw I'm using windoweyes; there might be a solution with speech only--I'm a windows newbie. There also probably is a solution with Jaws but i haven't used that at all so far.
Hth and I apologize to those for whom my account adds to the frustration; I felt the same way when the only solution seemed to be to get sighted help so I do understand totally.
