Click OK, and continue to the right, as you will have to select a launch key for Keyboard Commander. You will get a pop up that tells you that Keyboard Commander has been enabled. You can check the box with the space bar. Navigate to the right with VO Right Arrow, and select the tab for Keyboard. Once there, stop interacting with the table with VO Shift Up Arrow. Once you get it open,interact with the Utilities Table with VO Shift Down Arrow. To get to Keyboard Commander click VO F8, if you don’t have your Keyboard set up for accessibility than you will also have to hold down the FN Key to launch VoiceOver Utility. If you are impatient like me, how about launching Safari in one step? By enabling Keyboard Commander this can be accomplished. All of this is accomplished in two or three steps. You can also go to your applications folder, open it, enter the keys SA, and quickly jump down to Safari. Then type the S and depending on where it is placed in your Dock you will land on Safari. You can do this by going to your Dock by using VO (Command Option keys and I will refer to as VO keys moving forward) and D. For example, say you want to open Safari.

Some of you are very familiar with this, but for those of you who aren’t, Keyboard Commander is a most invaluable tool. One of the things I love most about the Mac is there are several ways to accomplish the same task. I am here to tell you that once you have gotten comfortable using your Mac, there are even more ways to speed up performance. Today I want to discuss Keyboard Commander. We have to learn all of these keyboard commands to use our Macs. Most of us are familiar with the basics, when in mail Command N for a new message, and Command Shift D to send that message. They make our life and computer experience easier.

As VoiceOver users on the Mac, we all love short cuts.
