How can I make dragon dictate 2.5 work with Lion?

DD 2.5 crashes and won't start even after re-installation.  Fixes?

If you read the link from Nuance posted earlier to this thread, they don't appear to have a current software that is Lion compatible.  In the meantime, if you need voice activated commands, you can use the built-in Plaintalk support in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Speech, or wait until Nuance upgrades their products.  Sadly Nuance took over all the third party speech recognition software available for the Mac.  A third possibility, is to get Windows installed on your Mac to do any dictation, and copy that information over to the Mac operating system in the form of an e-mail, Word document or Acrobat document if downgrading is too much of a pain.    There are these options to install Windows on your Mac*:

As always, check with software developers before upgrading to ensure compatibility, and always backup your data before upgrading*:

  • How can I make my mac book keyboard works with the Portuguese graphics accentuation, like ~`^...

    I am a new user and just bought my Mac Book. I have tried to type the texts in Portuguese using the graphics accentuation, but it is not working. I have already choiced the Portuguese language in the keyboard set up, but when I type the graphics before the letters in the text, they don`t go to the top of the letters, as it sould go. They appear before the letter, as another letter. Is there anything else that I should to set up to have the accentuation working correctly?

    If you have ever had any personal files on the iMac which you would rather not share with anyone, you should use Disk Utility to erase the hard drive using the option to write zeroes. Overwriting the files is the only way to ensure that they can't be recovered at a later date.
    After that is complete, use the restore discs that came with your iMac to reinstall all of the original software (including AppleWorks). Then use the Tiger install disc to upgrade it to Tiger.

  • How can I make Adobe Photoshop 5.0LE work on my new PC running Windows 8?

    How can I make Adobe Photoshop 5.0LE work on my new PC running Windows 8?

    Adobe Photoshop LE is too old. I do not think it will work in compatability mode. It was made circa 1998 before XP. It is time to pony up for new software. Adobe Photoshop Elements is inexpensive and provides a world of capabilities undreamt in 1998.

  • How can I make multi partitions in my computer with Windows 7??

    How can I make multi partitions in my MakBook with Windows 7??

    From what I read you can't. If you used Boot Camp to partition the Macintosh hard drive so you could install Win 7 on a boot camp partition you are locked into that one partition.
    If you try to RE-partition that BC partition Win 7 won't boot, and IIRC there is a possibility of OS X not booting (Not sure about that). I just went through this myself.
    That's one of the big reason I have gone back to Win PCs as my main systems.
    Mac's are OK but to restrictive in what you can do with the hardware, and the OS IMHO.

  • I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter  plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in to work with Visio

    For MS Visio (any version) only the appropriate version of Acrobat *PRO* provides PDFMaker for Visio.
    For Visio 2013 specifically you must have Acrobat XI Pro (updated to at least 11.0.1).

  • How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's?

    How can use my Wireless Location Appliance to work with RF ID's for Asset Tagging.
    It seems Smartcard used for ID cards have a small RF ID, can I use this for Asset Tagging?
    Thanks in Advance

    There are two kinds of RFID tags: Active tags, which have a battery or other internal power source, and passive tags, which have no power source and work by reflecting the energy from an RFID scanner (basically). At the energy levels and distances used for WiFi location detection, passive tags will not return a detectable signal.
    Take a look at http://www.aeroscout.com/ for more info on WiFi RFID tagging.

  • How can I remove  pages 5.0 to work with Pages 09 again?

    How can I remove  pages 5.0 to work with Pages 09 again?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you upgraded to Pages 5.0, the Mac App Store kept Pages '09 in case you want to use it again.
    To access to Pages '09, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and open the old Pages version. To access to it quickly, you can drag the icon to the Dock.
    I do not recommend you to remove Pages 5.0 or the Mac App Store will be always asking you to upgrade Pages. Also, Apple will add more features to Pages 5.0 in the future. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • I have an older G5 tower Power PC and the OS 10.5.8, but the firefox and safari browers are no longer supporting this computer. How can I download an older version that works with this computer?

    I have an older G5 tower Power PC and the OS 10.5.8, but the firefox and safari browers are no longer supporting this computer. How can I download an older version that works with this computer?
    Or what is the newest OS system I can load onto this computer?
    I think it is from 2006

    Hello,
    10.5.8 is the highest OSX it can run.
    TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
    SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...

    Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

  • How can I make my PowerPC/Windows programs work in Mac OS X Lion?

    In a few months I will be buying a MacBook Pro and I have a lot of old games that I would like to be able to play on it. But those games are Windows/PowerPC only and Mac OS X Lion does not support PowerPC. How can I make my old programs work in Mac OS X Lion?

    For porting Windows programs to Mac OS X, you can check out Wineskin.  It can be very simple to very hard to do though... its all a case by case basis.  The older the game is the more likely you are to get it to work easily though.

  • How Can I choose Iphone 5s models that work with LTE in Brazil. The Iphone needs to Support Band 7. If I buy the wrong model can apple change it ?

    I am planning to buy an Iphone 5s in October, but I have to make sure that the model will work with the LTE services we have in Brazil. I know that Apple made 2 Models that support Band 7. See Below.
    Model A1457*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20)
    Model A1530*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20); TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40)
    How can I make sure I will buy the correct model through the internet ? Can Apple change the Iphone In case they send the model that does not support LTE services in Brazil ?
    Thanks,

    Have you personally tried those models with Brazilian LTE networks? Do they work? If so, fine.  If not, then besides that, there is the problem of the warranty which is not international. The user will have to return the phone back to the country of purchase for both warranty and out of warranty service. So what might seem cheaper at first glance might not be in the end.
    Anyways, it your money and the OP's should he want to go ahead with your recommendation.

    The top 6 "will not work in Lion" programs:

    Office 2004 and Word, Excel, and mail that are part of it
    Adobe cs2
    FileMaker 6

    This is due to removal of support for Rosetta, which used to provide support for PowerPC-only programs.

  • How can you configure a WD external to work with Time Machine??

    I have an 1TB external WD MyBook drive that is connected to my network through my Linksys wireless router and am trying to figure out how to format the drive to use with Time Machine.
    I currently use the drive to store files from both my PC and my MacBook but can't seem to select the drive to use with Time Machine. I figured that I could just format the drive through the Disk Utility program, but the drive doesn't show up in Disk Utility. This may be because it is a drive connected through my router and not directly to my MacBook?!
    Here are a few questions...
    Any ideas on how to format the drive so it will work with Time Machine?
    Once formatted to use with TM, can I still use the drive to store other files from both my Mac and PC? or do I need to partition for this??
    Is it possible to set up an automatic backup schedule that will happen via my home wireless connection?
    Thanks in advance,
    Todd.

    You cannot use the drive with TM as you have it set up. TM will not work with a networked drive except a Time Capsule or a USB drive connected to an Airport Extreme Base Station (current version.)
    If you wish to use this drive for TM backups it must be connected directly to the computer. Other computers on the network can access the drive for TM backups if you turn on file sharing for the drive (select drive, press COMMAND-I, check the box labeled "Shared Folder," click on the Enable button.) The shared drive will have to be mounted on the other computers in order for them to use it as a TM backup drive.

  • How can I make sure time capsule is working?

    How can I check time capsule to make sure it is backing up?

    Suppose time capsule is working and I delete some pictures. Will I just need to remember what date I deleted pictures and just keep that date in mind to know pictures from a certain time only live on the time capsule?
    This is a very good way to lose your images. 
    Time Machine keeps track of the changes on your Mac. If you delete files on your Mac, Time Machine will "backup" that change....and at some point it will delete the files from the Time Capsule......you just don't know when this might occur.
    It might occur within the next day or so, or at some point in the future. You cannot predict this.
    But, even if the files stay on the Time Capsule for a few weeks......these are your only copies of your images. You have no backups in the event of a problem with the Time Capsule.
