Hi Tim,
thanks a lot. That worked. I’m sure Apple will solve this issue sooner or later.
All the best

Alex,
Thanks for confirming this. For a couple weeks I felt alone but now
everyone is seeing it too.

Hi all,
I think there were two things going on, and the bug is with the thing I wasn't
looking for. I thought the question was just about removing foreign voices from
the rotor, which I was able to get working perfectly by managing the entries in
the right spot in the VO Utility.
The question n
If those voices are in the trash, just in case, you might want to
put them somewhere else. I might do it too but may wait for an update
that addresses this.

Hi Jürgen,
Try checking Fred while in System Prefs, closing System Prefs then going back
in and unchecking him. Fred is one of the base English voices that is used in
the setup process so even when it's not checked, I suspect that it is present
in some manner. If your installation default was
Great, that worked.
Is this voice gone forever? It’s no longer available from the voiceover
utilities either. Correct?

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.

Hi Tim,
thanks for confirming the issue and thanks for the idea. Unfortunately it
didn’t work. In this section there were just the three voices checked which I
want to find in the rotor setting for voices. Fred wasn’t checked even though

Except we could do this in Sierra. I need to boot into Sierra to
check something tomorrow if I don't forget.

Hi,
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.
Later...

This seems to work on downloaded voices but not the compact ones.
There are 6 of those from the English speaking countries.

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 Alex,
I know this, but it just doesn’t work. I think you are speaking from the
knowledge you have of how things should work but in this instance they don’t.
I’ve unchecked everything that possibly could be unchecked and I’m still having
these voices enabled. I hear from other members of t
Dear John,
That is exactly what I have done with no effect. I’ve been a user of Voiceover
for ten years, so I have quite a bit of experience of problems, and that’s what
I’ve done straight away. But this hasn’t produced any improvements. That’s
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

If you look at the table of language options in VO Utility . Speech, you can
see all the voices that are enabled. Simply remove one to disable it in your
rotor, or add one to enable it.

If you uncheck them, they still show up on the rotor? I'll have to look at
that.

Unfortunately not these voices in High Sierra. Seems to be a bug.

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.
