In my experience, this usually happens when you are either mounting or removing either an external HD or a DMG file. Have you tried trashing Voice Over's .plist files? You might want to save them first though as this will set Voice Over back to its defaults. To do this: 1. Open finder and navigate to your users folder 2. Find the correct user(if there is more than one) 3. Navigate to the Preferences folder which is inside the Library folder and remove the apple.com.VoiceOver.plist files Hope this helps TC James On 2 Dec 2009, at 19:09, carlene knight wrote: > Hi: > > What would make my MacMini say "selection replaced 0 items selected" every > few minutes?
