Cannot play voices in SysPref Speech when working in other than english

Hi all.
If I configure my profile to work in another language as english (say italian) and I start System Preferences > Speech > Text to Speech, the "Play" button is disabled for all the system voices. If I turn to english, the button is enabled. Ok I know that speech are in english, but I don't find this to be a good reason not to permit users with another languages to hear the different voices.. Do you know a way to enable this button?
Thank you a lot and have fun with your Mac.

Thanks!
Unfortunately, there are no prefs to change. (At least not in the usual spot where Preferences are supposed to be on a Mac running Snow Leopard…)

    Hi,
    I have a template created using UI Shell and have 2 fragments being used as a dynamic region. So far so good. All is well and when i run the application i can see the regions.
    Don't know what this has to do with the problem and its solution. Its confusing.
    Now i created a custom template (.jspx) file and tried to use the same fragments in this template.
    Assume you meant that you used the same task flow reference - correct ?
    If you set definition="public" , does it make a difference ?

  • I have an IPod touch 4 gen. And I'm having problems with the audio when I use other than Apple brand earphones

    I have an Ipod Touch 4 gen. and I'm having problems with audio when I use other than Apple brand earphones. I'm talking about music only so far, when I use apple earphones all is fine, but if I use other type of phones ( sony for exemple ) I can only hear the music and the background but not the lead singer voice, can anybody explain this to me? thank you.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    - If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Is this a problem with the computer or with the word processor? MS Word for example seems to think its grammar and spelling are better than mine - they are not. You have to go into MS Word preferences and uncheck all the useless "help" it wants to provide.

  • Web page print do not take language other than english. earlier it was working.

    I use Firefox 16.0.2 in mylaptop having windows 7 starter. the web pages in languages ther than english is readable. But when i take web page print junk language is coming up. I use cutepdf as my printer. earlier I was comfortably having the print .

    Hi,
    If cutepdf has an option to embed fonts, you can try enabling it. Usually you may find the options in Firefox '''File''' ('''Alt''' + '''F''') > '''Print''' > '''Properties''' (for cutepdf) but in some cases you may also have to check the documentation/help for the relevant printer. If it was working earlier, you can also try to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-printing-problems-firefox reset the print options].

  • BIP Report in Siebel mobile is not working in languages other than English

    Hi,
    We have upgraded our Siebel from 7.8 to Siebel 8.1 and in that we have moved from Actuate to BIP Reports. We have created a customized report in which we have put in the Filters on '.rtf' file to show a particular set of data. This report is deployed for 3 languages : English (ENU), Portuguese (PTB) and Spanish (ESN).After deploying this report, on Web application, it is working fine for all the languages but we are facing an issue on mobile client, the report is only working fine in ENU but for other languages(PTB & ESN) it is failing (means the filter which we put on '.rtf' is not working on other languages).
    Is anybody face this issue and what will be the solution for this?

    Hi
    I think you need to first translate the smartform into other languages. Before translation, it wont work.
    Steps for translation:
    1. goto Transaction SE63
    2. in R3 Enterprise select form menu
    Translation - ABAP Objects - Other long texts
    3. select FS - SSF-Smart Form
    4. Object Name: choose your smart form
    5. select target language
    6. press edit

  • I have an audio file that plays automatically and I can't control it other than reduce the volume.  How do I turn it off?

    I have picked up an audio file that I can't control other than reduce the volume.  I don't know how to turn it off and it plays over any other audio.

    Is this an Apple installed audio clip?
    Have you checked to see if all of your browsers doesn't have a web page that is opened that has the audio? (Best thing is to quit all of your browsers to get that out of the way.) If it goes away, then find out which browser (if multiple), and then figure out what page or just close it if you wish.
    Once you get the browsers out of the way and the audio is still playing. Then quit other programs.

  • Cannot play the video in powerpoint when connected to projector

    i have linked a video into a powerpoint slide... it played perfectly on the screen. but when connected to projector it cannot be played.
    i am using a macbook pro with Lion OS.
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem today in front of an audience with 300 people (MacbookPro OSX 10.10, Thunderbolt-VGA adapter, PPT 14.4.6).
    Here what I figured out so far:
    1. It happens when you have PPT open and connect to beamer afterwards
    2. You can resolve it (in my case) by quitting PPT and launching it WHEN connected to beamer
    3. Yet, make sure Mac does not go into sleep mode or you get a lock-screen in the waiting time. if you do so, you get back to square 1. quit PPT again 2. restart it.
    4. Also.... in one case I had to hit the volume control once to get the sound back even though movie was playing
    So in short: Connect to beamer first, then launch PPT
    I know it is only a symptom fix but it worked for me

  • Cannot play iTunes store purchased songs when offline.

    Yesterday my cable was out for several hours and the iTunes for Windows XP said it was unable to play my purchased songs from the iTunes music store which I've had on my computer for months now because the iTunes account had to be activated. When the cable internet came back on it worked fine. What is the problem with playing my purchased music offline? I've paid for it!

    I am trying to use my Apple TV on a boat and do not want to take my computer with me.

  • Cannot close logic without force quit when working in 64bit mode

    Do I have bad plug ins or is this a common thing?
    Cheers Eddie

    You have bad plugins, or you're out of memory, or a bunch of possible reasons. List your specs, plugins and version of Logic/OSX and I may be able to suggest something.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Not Responding (Freezing) When Working With Other Programs

    Hello,
    I have a performance issue with Premiere Pro 5.0.3 version. When I have the program open and bounce to another program or Windows Explorer window lets say to drag in an asset such as a music or video file and then when I make the Premiere window active the program does not respond for a good 15 seconds, then after some processing (you see the mouse icon change and hear the hard drive chugging), I am able to again work. This is happening every time I switch windows to work on something else. Even if I just click away to another window and click right back without doing anything else, it does this non responding action. It even says it in the title bar (Not responding). I am wasting so much time waiting for the program to respond.
    My system :
    Windows 7 Ultimate
    Intel Core i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80 GHz
    8.00 GB of RAM
    Quadra 5800 Nvidia graphics card
    Drobo Pro 24 TB drive (where my project files, music & video files live) connected via iSCUSI
    Sonnet 4 TB raid drive (scratch disc) connect via ESATA
    Dual Monitors
    Please help!

    Doug,
    Similar had plagued earlier releases of CS5, but I thought that it had been addressed with the CS5.0.3 update. Maybe I am wrong.
    There were several other threads here, with similar problems. Maybe they contain some tips that will help. The "constant" seemed to be shifting focus from PrPro, and then back to PrPro.
    Good luck,

  • Webuitl  library needs to be re-attached when working with other libraries

    I haven't narrowed it down for certain, but it seems whenever a form (11g) has a change to an attached library the (also attached) webutil library has to be removed and re-attached. Is this normal?
    Form has my_lib.pll and webutil.pll attached. However, my_lib.pll may also have webutil.pll attached to itself. Seems redundant, but don't know how else to do it.
    A form can't reference a library attached to a library, can it?
    Thanks.
    Note: developing 11g on 32 bit Windows XP, deploying to 64 bit Linux, 10g database

    it helps to move webutil to the first,
    in Forms 10g everything but after migration to 11 I get an error below:
    FRM-40735: WHEN-CUSTOM-ITEM-EVENT trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-06508
    I don't want to reattach webutil on the first position in all forms,
    is any other way to solve this problem?

  • Error when working with more than one recordstore

    Hi all,
    I use Sun Java ME Toolkit SDK 3.
    When I insert a new record into a second recordstore then I get an error. How to correct it ?
    Thank you very much

    If you are dealing with two ALV, you should have created two different objects referring to CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
    If you have done and still getting a error, please post the code that is erroring here.
