Hi Shawn,
Thanks for that. You are correct, it is a mid 2010 laptop.
It runs circles around my mac mini mid 2009 model, so I'm extremely
happy with it.

Hey Chris, if you went to the Apple Menu and About This Mac, you could
find out what year it's from. I kinda find that odd that a 2012 machine
would have the Alex issue because it's only 4 years old but who knows. I
know that 2010 models have this which is why I'm avoiding Alex like the
plague until Apple fixes him. And I assume that you're running Sierra.2
so my question about Alex crashing older Macs like mine has been
answered, and sadly it still is.

Hi,
I have a Macbook pro 13 inch with 16gb ram and a TB SSHD. This is the
one that has the DVD drive on the right side.
I have the latest mac os installed on it.
From time to time using Alex the speech will just die. I can still
move around the screen and hear the VO sound effects. If I toggle VO
with command F5 it doesn't come back. I must press and hold power to
get the computer up and running again.
Does anyone have any suggestions, maybe if I were to use another voice
other than Alex?
ChrisI could be in the middle of navigating around and poof, no speech.
It is random.
