Also, I've noticed with Yosemite that if you delete a voice and that certain voice is checked when you go to the customize menu under speech, the voice will redownload until you uncheck it. I know it does this with Alex and the Nuance voices but not sure with the other built-in voices. Shawn Se

Hi Ray, Thanks for this. You are correct. My instructions toggled the VO sound effects whereas cmd-3, then VO-right three times, then VO-space like you said should toggle the speech on/off. Good catch. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On Feb 9, 2015, at 21:58, Ray Foret Jr wr

Hi, I guess that it is possible. I’ve never bothered removing any of the built-in voices before, so you may have confused the speech engine. If you still don’t have any voice, try going into Recovery mode, try turning on VO there. It should work for you then if you re-install your MacOS, the

Tim, surely, you meant to press CMD+3 after entering the Voice OVer Utility? Then VO+right three times then press VO+space? That's where I find the mute speech check box. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray Still a happy Mac, Verizon Wireless iPhone 6+ and Apple TV user! Sent from my M

Hi Tim, Thanks for this. I’m wondering if its possible that I did something when I deleted voices from my system folder? I didn’t think it would affect Alex, but I guess anything’s possible. > On Feb 9, 2015, at 7:45 PM, Tim Kilburn wrote: > > Hi, > > With VO on, try this: > > • press VO-f8 ()

Hi, With VO on, try this: • press VO-f8 ()add the FN key to this combination if you can normally change your volume without holding down the FN key) • press cmd-6 • VO-right once. • press VO-space. What you’d be doing here is opening the VoiceOver Utility, going directly to the Sound pane, the

Hi Alex, I don’t have the commander for muting speech. I thought that there was a VO command for muting and unmoving speech. As it turns out, there isn’t. I tried restarting VO several times with no success., > On Feb 9, 2015, at 7:40 PM, Alex Hall wrote: > > Well then, at least your system so

Well then, at least your system sound is working, that makes it easier. Do you have a Mute Speech command set up in any commanders? I've done that before - hit the hotkey and forgot I did so. Is speech volume all the way down? Have you hit cmd-f5 four or five times very quickly? Sometimes this c

You might have muted your computer. If you have no sound whatso ever (not even music or system sounds), hit F10 once. If you still have nothing, hit it again to toggle mute off again, as the problem is elsewhere. Of course, if your computer is set to require pressing the Function key with the F

Hi all, So I'm not sure what I done, but now I don't have any voiceover speech on my mac. I believe its muted somehow, but I can't figure out how to unmute it. I tried doing a three finger double tap on the track pad but nothing is happening. Can anyone help? Thanks -- You received this messag
