Thanks. Ok, i accidently muted the sreech. When I start the machine, it says "voiceover on" then "speech off". How do I get it back? O, and if there a way to get my mbp to save my wireless settings. Thanks for any help.

Then press down arrow to open the apple menu and after pressing down arrow once, you may press up or down arrow to navigate. Find shutdown and press enter, this action will bring up shutdown dialog, you can press enter once again, and your mac will close. VO means voice over keys, they are control + option. So you press control + option + m. This is quite useful command, if you use left and right arrows, you can move to other menu items such as file , edit , ... These menu items will appear depending on the current application. If you perform this command repeatedly you would get in to different menu bars.

The society which scorns excellence in plumbing because plumbing is a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy.

I got my mac pro today. I have used it a little and I am pleased... although a bit strange as I'm used to jaws. it seems much more interactive than jaws... Anyway. I have 2 questions: How do I adjust my voice over proferences. I tried what it told me and it didn't work. How do I go to the dash or whatever it's called? Also, how do I shut it down. I pressed the off button and it came up with options. but it wouldn't speak those options and my hubby had to help me. Thanks.
