I did actually. It starts up much faster. But I'm noticing I'm having issues
with my battery still. Which I know has nothing to do with the voiceover
situation. I do notice a voiceover is more responsive though and a bit quicker
since I turned off those items. Thank you for your insight!

You can delete them.
First you interact with the table and scroll to the item, then un interact
and arrow right to where it says 'delete this item', repeat this for each
item.

They could be contributing to your problem. They are starting up when you
boot up and are using up processor space. The only applications I have is
the speech synthesis server.
All others I have deleted. What are the names of the applications ?

Yes, that was a long shot, and usually one or two keys become faulty,
though apple keyboards are excellent.
What happens if you use a different voice ?

It seems to only happen when I am either waking up my computer or
first turning it on. Lately it has been happening if I switch between
apps as well. It seems to take a while for boys over to Say anything.

That is good, a thought, is your keyboard getting tired, rather than
VO, under what circumstances is voiceover unresponsive ?

Nicole,
While any of the things that TF is suggesting may be part or all
of the problem, I think it is worth mentioning that I have had
the same problem for years on a 2013 MBP. During that time I
have run Mavericks, Yosemite, & now El Capitan. And, from time
to time when I wake the machine up from sleeping, it just
doesn’t come back. I have found that waiting patiently does
sometimes, eventually, work. But, not always. In those cases,
I have to do a dreaded hard-shut-down & reboot the machine. Not
an answer, but at least you know that it’s not unheard of.

Hi,
I am using only Alex, I have only one app open at the time
which is usually mail and/or safari. When I first start the
Mac there are no apps open. I will try to turn on and off the
voice utility. But I'm not able to see when it comes up. Thanks
for the advice. Would any of this cause this?

Some thoughts....
Are you using only one voice and is it Alex ?
Open and then close voiceover utility. This may trigger a
refresh.
Close down your mac and fully detach the power supply, that
is, take the power cord out of the wall for 30 seconds.
Are you running a lot of Apps at thre same time, close them
and see if there is an improvement.

Hi list,
For the past couple days I have been noticing that when I
either wake my Mac or turn it on voiceover is not responsive.
It takes several minutes before it comes back on, and
sometimes it doesn't come back on. I have to restart it. Even
toggling it on and off it still does not help. Does anyone
know of anything I can do to correct this? Like I said, it
hasn't happened up until a couple days ago. Thank you for any
help.
