How do I turn OFF the audio prompt? (iMac, OSX Mountain Lion)

Somehow I managed to turn on the audio prompt on my iMac.  How do I turn it OFF?

Thanks so much.  I just couldn't find the answer in the documentation and the voice was driving me nuts.

  • How do I turn off the Audio included in "Epic Drama" so I can hear my own soundtrack?

    I have used "Epic Drama" to create a Movie but I am unable to turn off the audio included with it so I can hear my own soundtrack. I have clicked on the little speaker symbol within the frame and a line goes through it but the sound s NOT muted. Any ideas please?
    Thanks

    Ok, well to begin with when you unpin a music track it goes from 'floating' to 'pinned' - floating is the opposite of pinned (if something is not pinned down it is floating), so obviously you cannot unpin something from the floating box because it is already unpinned. 
    But you are on the right track - just wrong screen.  After you have unpinned go back to you main movie editing screen - you will have noticed the purple box around the outside of your movie in the timeline has now turned green.  This green box is the sound track you want to delete.  This should now be easy - just click once on the green box to select it (it may look like you have selected the entire project but you haven't and then hit the 'delete' button on your keyboard and you are done.

  • How can I turn off the sound from the original midi  or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

    How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
    I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

    Dan,
    It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
    Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
    This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
    One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
    Hope that helps

    I am using earphones, but the external audio of my mini ipad is still on. How can I turn off the external audio while listening with my headset/earphones?

    Other than iMovie, GB always incorporates the audio files into the GB package. So just save or move the GB project to the external drive, and you're done - anything you import, edit or record will be saved to the external drive.

    I recommend checking your  prompts and alerts to turn this feature off. This may be you "Call Connect" or "Readout" alerts. Listed below are steps to update this feature. 
    With the flip open, press the Voice Command Key (on the left side of the phone).The Voice Commands feature has several settings which allow you to customize how you want to use it. Access Voice Commands, then press the Right Soft Key[Settings]. Your choices are below:
    -Confirm Choices--- Automatic/Always Confirm/ Never Confirm
    -Sensitivity--- Control the sensitivity as More Sensitive/ Automatic/Less Sensitive
    -Adapt Voice ---If the phone often asks you to repeat voice command,train the phone to recognize your voice patterns.Train Words/ Train Digits
    Prompts ---Mode/ Audio Playback/Timeout
    * For Mode, set Prompts/ Readout+ Alerts/ Readout/ Tones Only.
    * For Audio Playback, set Speakerphone or Earpiece.
    * For Timeout, set 5 seconds or 10seconds.

  • How do you turn off the voice on a video while keeping the background music on?

    I have to watch an exercise video for training. You are supposed to be able to turn on and off the voice by going to the computer icon and toggle the voice on/off. However, that feature isn't on my ipad or ipod. How do I turn off the voice while keeping the music on?

  • How can I turn off the FileVault?

    How can I turn off the FileVault? It keeps saying 'Encryption paused', even I connected the power adapter.
    What impacts does it have on my Macbook Pro if I cannot turn off the FileVault?
    Thank you!

    If you don't already have a current backup of all data, back up before proceeding. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility window, select the icon of the startup volume from the list on the left. It will be nested below another disk icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar. When prompted, enter the login password of a user authorized to unlock the volume, or the alternate decryption key that was generated when you activated FileVault.
    Then, from the menu bar, select
              File ▹ Turn Off Encryption
    Enter the password again.
    You can then restart as usual, if the system is working. Decryption will be completed in the background. It may take several hours, and during that time performance will be reduced.
    If you can't turn off encryption in Disk Utility because the menu item is grayed out, you'll have to erase the volume and then restore the data from a backup. Select the Erase tab, and then select
              Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    from the Format menu.
    You can then quit to be returned to the main Recovery screen. Follow these instructions if you back up with Time Machine. If you use other backup software, follow its developer's instructions.
    Don't erase the volume unless you have at least two complete, independent backups. One is not enough to be safe.

  • How do I turn off the headphones to make a call?

    This is odd.
    How do I turn off the headphones off to make a call?
    For the last two days, every time I make or receive a call, my iPhone (1.1.3) thinks that my headphones are in, even when they are not. When the call engages, there is no audio on the handset. (If I plug my headphones in, the phone works as normal.)
    I have turned the phone off and on. (Again and again, in fact.)
    I have reset the system software.
    I have sacrificed a tofu chicken and did a little dance.
    I cannot find a setting to force this feature to turn off.
    Is there anything obvious that I am missing?

    Try inserting and removing the earbuds several times.
    If this doesn't work, insert the earbuds and start playing a song and then remove the earbuds. If sound is not heard from the external speaker, time to give AppleCare a call (800) 694-7466 or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
    Lint or a foreign substance in the earbud jack can cause this and it doesn't take much.

  • How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens everytime I turn on my computers.  Do NOT subscribe to CC. HELP.

    How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens every time I turn on my computers.  I want this annoying window to stop appearing.  I do not and will not subscribe to "Adobe Cloud" but the program (all 197 MB) somehow found it's way onto both my computers.  Nefarious at the least.
    I'm afraid to uninstall the "adobe cloud" programs from my computers because I fear that they are linked to my stand alone version of cs6 and my somehow corrupt the operation of my cs6. 
    HELP.  PLEASE.

    Have you installed any trial of Adobe CC because in all probability the auto prompt to purchase CC appears when the trial run ends.?
    The stand alone version of CS6 is not going to be affected if you uninstall the trial CC.
