Well, there is "deactivate" in the action menu in the voice manager for voices I presently have activated. So I hadn't really thought of it but this might be possible. If you don't see the answer on the website, try emailing supp...@assistiveware.com. You can ask them whether or not you can buy

Thanks. So if i understand this, it's about 20 dollars a voice? Can I deactivate and move the credits around? Thanks. On Jan 12, 2013, at 5:49 AM, Cheryl Homiak wrote: > Actually this isn't correct. It's 4 credits for two computers and I don't > think there's any way to just use 2 credits and b

Actually this isn't correct. It's 4 credits for two computers and I don't think there's any way to just use 2 credits and buy for one computer. In addition to this, some voices are 6 credits for two computers and I think some or all of the Swedish and Norwegian voices are 14 credits for 2 comput

Hi, One credit = one voice on one computer. Each voice you buy comes with two credits. That means you can install each voice on two different computers. Hope this helps, Erik Burggraaf Follow my series of articles about setting up a small business through the ontario disability support program

Are the nuance voices available for the mac? I didn't think they were? I'm using my 30 day demo of the acapela British voices right now and they seem pretty responsive to me so far. I do get what you're saying about some languages, though. That would drive me crazy if I had to deal with it al

Guys, thanks so much for all the help. I checked out the Acapella voices and was blown away. IMO, $99.00 is not a lot of money for one language pack of that quality. I couldn't quite figure out how much two packs, British and American English, would cost. Anyone know? Maybe when I finish my nex

Hi. Maybe these voices are more responsive, but I don't like them because they are not correct with other languages. Using a russian voice I can't read english words because of the pronounciation, and it takes a lot of time making a dictionary. It's a reason for me to like voices from Nuance,

Hello Denise, The Acapela voices are excellent. The only minor drawback is that they cannot change pitch to indicate a capital letter. Otherwise, no problem and if anything, they're more responsive than Alex. Cheers, Anne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

Hello Denise, I'm slightly confused by your question. Your MacBook Pro is a Mac, so of course the Acapela voices work on it. You can't buy just one voice, however. They come as packs, and the number of voices depends on the language. For French, we get 5 French voices plus the American voice He
