Hi,if he is on a macbook or a macbook pro, and trackpad commander is turned on, tap twice on the touchpad with 3 fingers. If trackpad commander isn't turned on, Hold down control and option, and rotate 2 fingers on the trackpad to the rite.
If he is on a desktop mac, it is in the voiceover utility, in the "speech" catagory.
Hope this helps! Ash Check out my website: http://www.ashleycox.co.uk and the AC tech podcast: http://www.bavis.co.uk/theactechpodcast----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Nugent" <Paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,An acquaintence of mine is also a new Mac User, and he has just asked me ifI could help. Well I couldn't, and so I am putting it to the list.Somehow he has turned off speech. The Mac boots up and says that Voice Overis on, and then says that speech is off. He then gets silence. He has obviously pressed a key combination unwittingly that has switched it off. Can you let me know how he can switch speech back on please?
