I have experienced the same thing running el Capitan. I have been using this
dear MBP for about 7 years, and it is generally slowing down. I hope I can use
it for at least one or two more years.

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.
