Thanks, I think you can toggle the functiom row of keys in the keyboard 
preferences so that adding the FN key isnt needdd.

it's command-f5 but you may have to use fn with it.  control key is to the 
right of fn.

Hi all, could anyone tell me on a Mac Book Air, what is the command to start 
voiceover? Is it FN Command F5 or FN Control F5? Also is the control key one 
to the right of the FN key?
Thanks
Frank

Hi all,

Everything has its imperfections and though rare, you may find that no
matter what you do knowing your volume is up and not muted you get nada of
sound from your Mac.  Install dvd to the rescue.  PUt it in, restart the Mac
while holding down the c key and after it spins up press command-f5 or
command-fn-f5 if you have a notebook and vo will start right from the dved.
Now, you can press enter and get through the language chooser and under the
menu bar are some things you can do.  I once had a problem like this or
maybe more than once, and wht I did was choose utilities under the menu bar,
run disc utility and run disc permissions on the hd.
