Hi, I hope somebody here can help with this problem. I am trying to get my husband, Mark's mac to talk again. Voiceover is running, but I think the speech is muted. I attached my braille sense to it so I could tell what was going on, and it looks like the check box in the voice over utility to mute speech is *not* checked, yet it's still stubbornly silent, except that when I turn it off, then back on again, it says voiceover on, speech off. Unfortunately, it's a stupid holiday here in Canada, so I can't call apple. Is there a shortcut key to mute speech that I am not aware of? Anybody got a way to fix this? Mega thanks! Caitlyn ps-Mark says he didn't hit any keys to make the computer mute and was just trying to quit safari when it happened. > > Click on the link below to go to our homepage. > http://www.icanworkthisthing.com > > Manage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below. > //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover > > Users can subscribe to this list by sending email to > macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Web > interface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover >
