Oh right, didn't know there was a safe mode for the mac, cheers! May not be accessible but still useful to know this.

      There is a startup repair, safe mode similar to Windows, but like in 
Windows, a screen reader is unable to run in this mode.  You hold down the 
shift key at startup to go into Safe mode, or command-s to start verbose mode, 
in which the start up process is d displayed on the screen.

     If you need to do general maintenance, use Disk Utility and run a disk 
permissions and a repair permissions.  There are also several untility 
applications, like, Onix, that can be useful.

Good morning all.
On the mac, is there some type of startup repair, and if so can we use 
VoiceOver with it? Thanks!
