Hi
I have managed to enlarge my text and font on my IMac, but am struggling to enlarge the tool bar, I find the traffic light system very difficult to use. Other than having to purchase something like Zoomtext, does anyone know of any way I can get around this? I also find the dinky keyboard tricky, again any suggestions is there a full size one or large font keyboard available for the Mac?

Large font full size USB keyboards for the Mac are available from LogicKeyboard. For example, check Amazon:
APPLE MAC LARGE PRINT Keyboard - WHITE on BLACK Keys-LKB-LPRNTWB-AM89
https://www.amazon.com/APPLE-LARGE-PRINT-Keyboard-Keys-LKB-LPRNTWB-AM89/dp/B005J4VTZM

LogicKeyboard are also supposed to make large print keyboard skins for Mac and PC keyboards according to their web site, including for Apple Bluetooth keyboards -- at least for the older version of the Apple Wireless Keyboard.

Apple does not make a full size Bluetooth keyboard, but the Matias Wireless Aluminum Keyboard is a full size Bluetooth keyboard for the Mac with a key layout and keyboard feel very close to Apple's full-size USB keyboard, so the large font keyboard skins made by LogicKeyboard might work with these. The numeric keypad supports the full range of VoiceOver NumPad commander definitions. You can purchase the Matias Wireless Aluminum keyboard from the Matias web site, from Amazon, or from AT Guys, who keep an accessible copy of the keyboard documentation for this model on their web site. There are also versions of the Matias Wireless Aluminum keyboard with layouts for other languages (German, UK English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Swiss, Nordic, and Japanese), available from their international distributors.
