Thank you, donna. Yeah! I tried for over 4 days, about 4 months ago to get the speech to work and it was a total bust.
As a major Star Trek fan, I would love nothing more than to be able to talk to my Mac. I'm sure, as time moves forward so will speech access.

I may go back in and see if he can help me further. In either case, I'll keep you posted. Seems like a really handy feature, I could get into being Jean-Luc Picarde! lol Donna On Nov 28, 2010, at 8:11 PM, M.

Does any one have any pointers on how to do this successfully? I have it set up to be activated by spoken workd, and have left the default setting of the word computer. >> TIA, >> Donna >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >> To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
