Hi,
I've never used a monitor with my Mack mini. Even with setup, I didn't use a
mouse, but it was kind of tough, without the mouse plus, I didn't really know
much about the Mack. But other than that, my Mack Mini works fine without the
monitor, kind of sluggish with Safari though.

Hi,
Usually, they cost about $99 for americans, and €99 for other people. If you
buy the Scandinavian languages, however, it is $219/€219 for a package. Double
check this on the site, but I believe this is what the prices were when I
purchased just a couple of weeks ago.

I think for the bundle its about 80 bucks, not sure if you can buy the voices
individually, I will have to check as I am on the 30 day trial too. I wonder
if they will object to me placing the voices on my iMac and Macbook Pro, its
not as if I would be using them at the same time :)
On 27 Jun

Hi Esther.
I know that my frends macbook is newer, I think it is from 2009. So it
does not work with f6 or fn+f6. But I can not find anything about how
it can be done on a newer mac.
Hope you can help.

Hi,
You cannot buy individual voices. You are stuck with a bundle of languages, and
this is because of Acapela's policy. IF you want individual offers, try to
convince Acapela to distribute them separately as well as in a bundle.

No No No. The reseting of your home screen to get rid of folders you made is
completely unnecessary. First if you aren't already in the folder you created
double tap on it. Then find the app you want to remove from the folder and
