Firstly, this being my first post to this list, I should probably give
a brief introduction. As you can tell from the name field, my name is Henry
Hollithron. I am a college student, and las October, I acquired a MacBook Pro.

If you change the sources table so that it is focused on music (note
that this is the default source when opening iTunes), you will find, right
below the table with all your songs, a text area which tells you how many songs
you have, the total time it would take to play your

VO-F2 pressed twice quickly works quite well on my MacBook Pro running
Lion. Being a new Mac user, I'm not sure what shortcuts might have changed,
but, on my end at least, the window chooser is working fine with the shortcut
you have below.

When I did the upgrade, there was a second window available from the
Window chooser for the voice manager which told me to redeem the activation
codes. It had found the activation codes for the older InfoVox language packs
which I had, and I had to activate each one by pressi

I've put the answers to your questions, at least as much as I know of
them, in the extract from your original message below. Since I've only used Mac

here goes.

I have a british voice on my Mac. When I turned on dictation, there was
a popup menu with the different languages and accents which were available for
that service. It was set to British English, but I had no difficulty in
changing it to American English.

Here is the relevant extract from chapter 7 of the VoiceOver Getting
Started guide, which is the last option in the VoiceOver help menu. Of course,
VoiceOver now appears to be more specific about which data has been detected,
but I think the instructions still apply.

In theory, there is Read4Me, available from the App store. It used to
work quite well, costs $3.99, and allows one to switch voices easily with tags
in the text file such as [[ALEX]] or [[DANIEL]]. Unfortunately, at least on my
computer, it no longer seems to want to load. I b

When the installer asks you to sign into the app store, you have to use
the Window chooser to access the dialog. I seem to remember that I had to click
the mouse in the edit field for the Apple ID using the VoiceOver commands

Did you try looking in the window chooser. Generally, this is how I
have found the dialog for signing into the App store. Note that if you do find
the dialog with the window chooser, you may have to use the VO commands to move

There is Read4Me. I have been having some problems running it on
Mavericks, but the developer says that he does not have the same issue. Perhaps
you could try it out and tell us both how things go? Here's the link:

With iTunes Match enabled, you remove an artist or album as normally
through iTunes, except that there is an additional checkbox, "Also delete these
songs from iCloud," which you would check in order to remove the content from
iTunes Match. As for adding, you need do nothing e

The converter is in a frame following the first heading on the main
page. If you interact with it, it guides you through the four phases of
conversion. When the page updates, you may have to refocus VoiceOver, but the
web interface is certainly useable.

in point of fact and for what it’s worth, you could still achieve this
effect with VO-shift-space in Maverics. In Yosemite, however, there seems to be
no way to bring up the menu.

The terminal works as it always has in Mavericks. You need to make sure
that you are interacting with the text where the contents of the terminal is,
but I have no problem reviewing the screen if that condition is met.

The VO-command-space keystroke has simply been changed to
VO-command-return. Other than that, the procedure for selecting non-contiguous
items is identical to that in Mountain Lion.

Have you tried repairing disk permissions? For whatever reason, it
seems to solve some problems of sluggishness under any version of Mac OS. Of
course, a clean install would also seem to do the trick, but I know you are

Indeed. This program appears to be quite prone to crashing. I realise
that it is open-source and thus not meant to be perfect, but I don't think it's
yet ready for stable use. The exception thrown by the program that you copied
