Hi. Another work around is to go to the finder, then to Mackintosh HD, system,
library, speech and then voices. From there you can delete any voice you want,
just make sure they're unchecked.

I was able to remove Fred, but I wonder if the compact voices are used as part
of the base system so cannot be removed. Just a guess for now.

Hi,
I agree that from a VO prospective, this is certainly a bug. The workaround is
to use System Prefs. Go into System Prefs, Accessibility, then select Speech
from the table. The default System voice will be announced in the pop-up.
Choose Customize from this menu and you can uncheck voice
Hi Andrew,
I stand corrected. Yes, I've just tried this with both the Apple default
voices and a few of the additional ones and though they are unchecked, they
remain in the rotor selections. Please report this to,

Hi, Sandie,
I think you're very smart for sticking with IOS 10. Since updating, I'm seeing
slightly better results in Maps, but honestly, I'm wishing I'd done what you

I know this, but it just doesn’t work. I think you are speaking from the

why I think it may be a bug. Are you saying th
Hi Alex, did you really check this? In High Sierra it is broken in that way
that there are some voices in the rotor which are not checked in VoiceOver
utilities and which I never would have checked like Fred. So, if you know a way
of removing them I'd be more then delighted.
Thanks, Jürgen

Hi all,
Before I upgraded to High Sierra, I used to be able to go into computers,

You can remove any voices from VoiceOver Utility by unchecking the boxes for
the specific voice. Just choose, custom, as you would if you wanted to add
voices. Once you do this, you won't see the voices in the rotor options.

Yes, I don't like that either. Let's hope Apple will change this quickly and
not in 10.14.

Listers,
I must say i dislike the way the new voice rotor works. Up until Sierra, if
you needed more than one language to work with, you would customise the rotor
by adding languages and then you would be able to choose the language you want

I have been thinking about your issues with navigation. Do you know if it is

It has more capabilities, with a few missing features, as I detailed in my last

Hi. If you're trying to adjust speech rate on the Mac, the command to adjust
speech attributes has changed. Now in addition to pressing VO+Command, the
shift key has to be added. So to change speech rate, press
VO+Command+Shift+Right arrow to go to rate and then up and down arrows to
adjust it.
