Ian et al - Made some progress now. On the MacBook [guess some are using the
Mac pro instead] As well as using the VO keys in conjunction with some of the
function keys, the FN key need to be incorporated too. So, for example, to
activate the app chooser, the keystroke is FN/Control/Options and F1 press
price. This is also the key combination when using F8 to bring up the VO over
menu.
I've also been able now to get Alex as my VO voice, but again, I wasn't just
presented with Daniel or Alex, but had a whole table of voices to choose from,
but most of them [probably all except Daniel and Alex] had to be downloaded.
I'm not sure if all these other voices are for free, or paid for -

Press VO keys plus f1 twice to bring up the app chooser.

Hi again - meant to say that I know about using the VO D key combination to
get to the dock, but is the dock the only way to quickly get to apps? -

Hi all -
Getting on pretty well, and finding out all sorts of stuff, but still
confused about a number of things as yet.
I notice that I can use Command tab [like alt tab in Windows] to see what
apps are running, but that key combination doesn't let me in to the app to work
with it. Anybody tell me how to do this? And also, how to quickly find a list
of apps, like with 'all Programmes' in windows?
Thanks -
Andy
