Hi David, how do you click, or is that another way of saying press
enter or return?

Marti, when you are on the link, to use the mouse, hold down control
and 
just click.

over


Hi Cara, I can't get a context menu to offer a menu to download any of
the files, and I'm using a mac mini.  Once the page has loaded, as it
finally has done, and it has over eight hundred and some odd links, I
navigate to the link I want, and then to make sure, I press vo f5, and
if the mouse is not under the link, I press vo command f5, then I press
vo f5 again to make sure the link is under the mouse, but still, I
can't get any context menu to offer a menu of choices, just a ding, and
when I left click, the file starts playing, and I don't know where the
files are so I can snag them like I can in windows if this should
happen, hope this makes sense, because I don't know how to use the
physical mouse.

   Marty, for me, Safari says 'busy' while it's loading the page.
This isn't unlike WinEyes saying 'loading' while a page is still being

rendered / dl'ed as the user presses a key or  tries to navigate with
the screen reader.

   Once the page is loaded, I navigate to the link, either with VO nav

or the IC, (Item Chooser) - VO I, and then use ctrl click via my track

pad.

   From there I can save the linked file as.

   Now, in Safari preferences, you can set your downloads folder.
This is the default folder Safari will use for future downloaded items

unless you specify another one as with the above process.

   Does this make sense?.

HTH and have an awesome eve!.

Smiles,

Cara  :)
