I think it is more for the sighted users than anything else. That and future
versions of IOS will be based on the ITunes 11 platform.

So what is the advantage to updating? Is there some new feature which makes
it worth the learning curve?
Regards,
Wayne

Thanks for the help. I figured out where podcasts and stuff went. If you tab
to the music button and press applications, it brings up the tree style
"source list".

Hi
I've found iTunes 11 is all quite accessible with jaws without scripting,
although some minor scripting would be nice.
While F6 does focus upon some different elements of the program quickly, Tab
is your friend here. Tabbing eventually will take you to Buttons, such as
Music. Press Space on that to reveal a tree view in terms of the kind of
music to select.
There are also more radio buttons than before which you can tab to. Do not
use up and down arrows in radio Buttons. Tab to the one you want and hit
space, such as Playlists, whereupon a further tree view will be revealed,
following which a Playlist can be selected.
It would be nice if you could have quick keys in jaws, such as R to take you
to the next radio button, S for the next piece of static text, and so on.
Very scriptable if needed.
Pressing ALT may well deploy the menu bar, but jaws does not read this. You
can arrow left and right along it however and press down arrow to enter the
required menu item.
Alternatively, shortcuts can be used, such as ALT+F for File, ALT+V for
View.
When navigating the Store, it is quite laggy when you get into it even on my
new PC with 8 GB of RAM. However, once you are in, it is fine. When you
enter a new Store page however, refresh the screen with Insert+Escape as the
jaws virtual buffer does not seem to be updating. I will log this with
Freedom Scientific.
There is also a Show Menus Button you can Tab to and hit Space, whereupon
some additional menu items are revealed. This is a Context Menu.
But all in all, while things may be a little different in terms of layout,
it is definitely not unusable.
Any questions, do let me know.

As you tab through the choices. You have to check what you want to see. Just
like the other it all reads for me. Just in a different way now.
