Calvin, Ian, and Mark. Thank you very much for all your help. The way I was
closing any application or window that I had open was by navigating to the
toolbar and pressing VO Space on the close button. I thought that was good
enough since the clothes is on the toolbar, again things work differently on
the Mac I tested this out using the command Q I opened up Safari, Mail, and
used the command Q to quit these items and now voiceover is no longer speaking
them. However the downloads folder and other folders I have on my desktop do
not close with the command Q I have to navigate to the toolbar like I described
above to close these windows. I’m not sure what’s going to happen with text
edit, because text edit automatically closes itself once I save. So for example
I open up TextEdit I navigate to new document I click on that and then I begin
to type let’s say a recipe. When I finish I navigate to the tool bar where it
says close by VO spacebar and the save as dialogue pops up, I click save and
then text edit disappears and I get the same problem that I described in my
previous message. What am I doing wrong? Is there another way to save and then
quit the text edit application so that it doesn’t remain open?

Hi everybody hope you’re all doing well, I hope my message comes through.
Even if somebody cannot answer my question could you please confirm if this
message has come through. The reason I ask this before I get to my initial
question is that I sent another email to this list thanking Ian for all the
help with iMovie and asking questions about an external hard drive and I did
not get any replies. From my very little Time on this list I have
experienced much help from all of you and I appreciate it so much, this is
why it seems strange to me that nobody replied to my thank you and question
about the external hard drive. I assume my message did not go through.
Anyhow I got my external hard drive issue solved. My thank you was to Ian
for helping me with iMovie. It took me a while to play with iMovie and
follow Ian’s instructions quite a few times messing it up, and finally I got
success. I also found that iMovie on the iPhone was very simple to use. The
only thing on iMovie on the iPhone that was not accessible was editing text
on a background. You have to click the word edit on the text background
which voiceover does not see. I had to turn voiceover off get a sighted
person to click the word edit which brings up the keyboard and then I turned
voiceover back on and I was able to delete the text that is inserted
automatically on the background and type in what I wanted.
Anyhow here is my new question. I have a 27 inch iMac late 2013 running
Catalina. This is what is happening, I open Safari do my business and close
it. I open text edit create a new document, type in what I want, save it,
close it. I open email check my messages etc. close it. Even though all my
windows are closed, voiceover says text edit. But text edit is closed. When
I cycle through applications to see if maybe I forgot to close text edit I
hear text edit, mail, Safari, etc. Nothing is open but yet voiceover is
telling me that all these things are there however when I stop on an
individual app it tells me for example safari has no windows. I bring up the
application chooser and it tells me five items. I Arrow down the items and I
hear voiceover saying Safari, mail, TextEdit, QuickTime player, etc. when I
click on any one of these it tells me zero items. How can I clear this? This
is very annoying if I am on the Mac for a while this accumulates too many
items being spoken that I have closed. Does anybody have any idea what’s
going on and how I can fix this? Thank you for any help in advance
