• Select Dictation from the accessibility categories on the left. Then click the Dictation Commands button.

Once you know the keyboard equivalents, you can use them to control various Mac functions, including using Mac OS X Startup Shortcuts. Another helpful bit of information for new Mac users is to know which menu key symbols correspond to which keys on the keyboard. Learn how to use Command or Shift to select multiple items in the Finder. Click the Go menu in the Finder menu bar to see shortcuts for opening many commonly used folders, such as Applications, Documents, Downloads, Utilities, and iCloud Drive.

• A list of dictation commands opens. Use the checkboxes to turn commands on or off. Click a command to see which phrases work with that command. For example, “Undo that” works with several phrases, including “Undo this' and “Scratch that.” Select “Enable advanced commands” to get additional commands.

To use any of the commands that you turned on, first make your Mac listen for dictation commands: • Press the keyboard shortcut for starting dictation. The default shortcut is Fn Fn (press the Fn key twice). • Or turn on the option “Enable the dictation keyword phrase,” which is next to the Dictation Commands button. You can then speak the dictation keyword phrase to let your Mac know that the next thing you say after the keyword phrase will be a dictation command.

Then speak any of the phrases that work with a dictation command. You can even say “Show commands” to open a window showing all of the dictation commands available to you. After you select “Enable advanced commands,” an Add button appears beneath the list of commands. • Click the Add button to add “undefined command” to the list of commands.

• Click the undefined command to select it, then configure these options: • When I say: Enter the word or phrase that you want to speak to perform the action. • While using: Choose whether your Mac performs the action only when you're using a particular app. • Perform: Choose the action to perform. You can open a Finder item, open a URL, paste text, paste data from the clipboard, press a keyboard shortcut, select a menu item, or run an Automator workflow.
