Heard that!
But, I try to remember the exercise I’m getting crawling down behind the desk.
I find all those parts that I didn’t know could, even, hurt! LOL

When I worked in tech support back in the 90s I was a non tech person, the
software we built wasn't even screenreader accessible. I had a list of
problems I could deal with over the phone, I wouldn’t even have my computer
on while I talked to the customers. If your problem wasn’t on my list I would
escalate you. I came up with the 3 Rs protocol to translate between the
programmers and the customers. Retry, Reboot, reinstall.
It also blows me away that in 20 years of wireless routers, unplugging it is
still the answer to anything. I know what happens when you unplug it, I just
can’t believe nobody thought to put a switch on the box to keep you from
having to crawl around looking for the cord you dropped behind your desk.

Ian,
I, always, reboot after an install. I’m a wonderful & knowledgeable guy.
LOL. Sounded so smug, I had to make fun of myself.
Seriously, I was a programmer for years & I learned to just shut the darn’d
thing down & reboot when it starts acting stupid. Doesn’t always fix it,
but it rules out those type of gremlins.
My wife works with a guy, who’s a technical expert. His answer to every
problem @ her fortune 100 defense contractor is, “did you shut it down &
restart?” Good enough for him, good enough for me.
Best wishes,
CJ

Isn’t anomaly a fun and descriptive word? Thanks for the suggestion, a full
reboot did indeed fix the problem.

Ditto,
Works for me, as well. Ian, sounds like an anomaly native to something on
your machine. Have you done a cold boot, since your install?
Best of luck,
CJ

Hello list, until the latest update to OS 11.1 of Big Sur VO shift M
brought up a context menu on dock items. This was pretty handy,
especially for jumping straight to preference panes in System
Preferences. It’s also where the commands to keep an item in the dock or
remove it were located. As of now the context menu isn’t coming up, does
anyone know if this has changed or if it is ssomething broken.
The VO command space action items does bring up a menu, but none of the
items seems to do anything helpful in this case.
