Hi everybody, hope you’re doing well. Just to remind everybody I am a beginner
on the Mac. I have asked this question on a few other lists and nobody seems to
know what the problem is. I was told to call Apple accessibility but I thought
I would ask you guys as well just in case I get lucky and somebody knows how to
solve this.
The problem started when I upgraded to Catalina.
I am bilingual and need to use the Greek voice called Melina on the Mac.
I soon realized I have two problems, one the Greek voice doesn’t work properly
on the Mac and cannot read the Greek. I don’t think anybody on any list can do
anything about that. I think I do need to call apple accessibility for that
issue. My main problem is that I hear two voices speaking at the same time. I
went into system preferences/accessibility/speech and unchecked all boxes. I
also unchecked all the voices. The Mac asked me if I want to delete the voices
or keep them. I chose to keep them. However everything is unchecked But I still
hear two voices. If I press control option command shift and the arrow keys and
choose Alex for example as my main voice over voice, when I hit the modifier
keys I hear Samantha‘s voice and when I hit a letter on the keyboard I hear
Alex‘s voice. If IM in text edit and I begin to type, I hear both Samantha and
Alex. No one seems to know how to solve this. Any ideas?

Ian,
It sounds like you may have been invaded. Turn off all of your automatic
updates and run Clean my mac and for crying out loud shut down Google drive.
IMHO.

Yup, I did the upgrade, and things were just fine for a few days, then this
happened. Right now I’m working on the premis that my maxed out google drive
is trying to share folders with my hard drive even though I told it not too.
It may have been trying this before I made the change, and still trying to
accomplish it’s task before it lets the new settings take effect.

Last night I set my Mac to move my documents and desktop to ICloud, it had
the space and I figured it would give me the 6.44 Gb to get an IMovie work
project done. When I went to seleep it was happily chugging away on the
sync. This morning the 6.44 Gb is indeed in ICloud, but the mysterious
filling of the hard drive continues. In system report nothing except
documents is growing, it is at 53 Gb, but when I look at the files and
resources in documents within system report it
S only the 6.44 I expected to be there.
When I go to Finder and check a status bar, like in the downloads folder,
it says I
M down to 20 Mb, and there is the click sound that says something is
happening, like a large chunk of data being copied or moved, that click
sound.
I
M getting a little desperate here, I can

As a reminder, I had a whole bunch of hard drive space because I moved a
bunch of stuff off to upgrade Mac OS, it was there for a couple of days
and then yesterday it filled up on me.
Any suggestions? I
Ve followed all the optimize storage recommendations I found on line and
in the system report application.
