Hi, This is a pretty basic question but, I don't think I've seen it asked in this thread, have you tried turning up the volume? Pressing f12 or, Function F12 will raise the volume. I notices that the headphone and internal speaker volumes are independent. I guess it might be possible one or

Hi Ricardo, Yeah, I tried repairing permissions yesterday, and it didn't solve the problem. I do have my Mac set to display all user accounts. thanks, I'll look forward to hearing if you have any issues. This truly is strange. Cheers, Donna On Jul 28, 2012, at 8:27 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote:

Hi Donna, have you tried repairing permissions since you've upgraded to mountain lion? I've just turned on manual login , and restarted my MBP. VO started up right away and announced I was in a security edit field. I will monitor this over the weekend to see if this problem pops up for me.

Hi Shen, Thanks for trying so hard to help. I don't have an encrypted hard drive, and no, I'm not pressing the FN key at all. I may yet try a clean install, but since that's the only problem I'm having, I don't know if it's worth all that work. :) Cheers, Donna On Jul 28, 2012, at 2:02 AM, S

Hi Donna, OK, just so we cover all possibilities. You don't have an encrypted hard drive right? Because VoiceOver does not speak at the login screen with an encrypted hard drive. OK, let's assume you don't have that since this just happened to you after installing Mount Lion. I posted an email a

Hi Shen, When I'm logging in, no key presses work, not Command F5, and not the volume keys. The other thing that's weird is when I get logged in, VO first says "Dictation IM has no windows". I squirm around until I get out of that, and then end up in another window that says something like "S

One good test of whether or not you're getting volume out your speakers is just to hit F11 or F12 until you hear the click. I love that click. After you hear it, … you know what? I'm going to try a complete restart--off and on again--cause I'm curious now. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, S

Hi Donna, Not sure why this is happening to you. Then again, I have strange things happen to my VoiceOver as well that I'm sure no one has experienced.

How long are you waiting before realizing VoiceOver is not coming on? Is it possible the system is still booting up? Also, just for giggles, unchecked the checkbox for starting VoiceOver at the login screen. Close the Preferences, open it again and check the box again. I would do a complete shut

Are you sure that you have voiceover in your login items system prefs paine under users set to read at the log on screen? What if you hit command+F5 to turn it on manually? If that doesn't work, try fn+Command+F5, provided you have an fn key. Chris. - Original Message - From: "Donna
