Hi Everyone
I wanted to ask this here before I write to Apple, in case it's something odd about my setup. Along with the accessibility improvements in iTunes 8.1 I'm seeing some very serious issues. Chief among them is that, while tabbing still moves through controls properly, Voiceover will not stay in sync while tabbing. I can only use the VO cursor to get around and, as I use tab to quickly jump from the song list to the media browser, for me this is a serious issue. Before I report this as a problem to Apple, can anyone here duplicate it? Simply go into iTunes and start tabbing around, if Voiceover doesn't announce the controls you're tabbing to after the first one, you've duplicated it. I don't want to report a bug if it's something on my system only, as that would more than likely mean I've got another issue.

Thanks, and sorry for cross-posting.



The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
