Yes it's supposed to.

Control will silence VoiceOver speech. With Youtube, I think the k key acts
as a pause for the media.

Thanks for those commands. They worked nicely.
Should I be able to use the control key to stop VO from talking? When
watching Youtube, I will rewind and I'd like to stop it from talking quickly.

Keith, I can tell you that command option L. will get you into the downloads
folder. Control shift down arrow wall get you to interact with the downloads
folder. And commando will open in the application that you are wanting to
open or any document that you have downloaded and want to open. I hope this
helps you.

Hi,
I am working on learning how to use a Mac Book Air using Voice Over. I
am needing some suggestions on understanding what I should be interacting
with. I often seem to be interacting with titles that lead nowhere or
tables that lead to other tables where I can’t follow the logic.
A basic task I want to learn is how to use and open the finder where
Downloads, Documents, Applications and Recent items live. I go to the doc,
choose finder, and that is where I get stuck. Sometimes I interact with
the right side bar or title bar and I get so excited. Then I close
everything and can’t duplicate it. Let’s just say I have to step away from
the computer in frustration. That is why I am reaching out for help. My
daughter uses a MAC and she says she can see in the finder the
applications, downloads, documents, etc. on the screen but I can’t figure
out how to access them.
I would also like to understand how to install applications. It sounds
like the application files that I download to the downloads folder needs to
be copied and pasted in to the applications folder. The problem is that I
can’t seem to get to these folders with much ease or consistency. I was
able to figure out how to do it once and my daughter said that I copied
over an image of the application and not the actual application. Like I
said I need more explanation on how this works.
Appreciate any explanation or pointers.
Thanks,
Keith
