Dictation works, but where is the text?

Hi.
Everything seams to work like Apples setup instructions say. The microphone color and movement when I talk is there but when done and after I click stop dictation nothing happens: No text while talking or after done. I activated Enhanced Dictation, it dowmloaded extra software and dictation worked
right after that once. Returning to do more: nothing! I checked all settings even used a different mic but no text is happening.
I am using a Pro Shure mic going into my Alesis iO|26 interface into my Mac Pro running 10.9 Mavericks. I also tried my iSight which
I used when Enhanced Dictation installed the first time = perfect transscription. Now nothing. I rechect all settings over and over. Used TextEdit then Pages blanks, also e-mail. Any idea what is going on here?

Thank you Steve for your caring response and link.
As per your advice I just send the following to their Mavericks, Mac Pro support.
Seeing that lots of people have problems getting Dictation to work in Mountain Lion and now in Mavericks I respectfully request that you check and try to fix this problem.
As a continuing (since 1995) Apple user and after lengthy research and trying numerous suggested fixes I have come to the conclusion that there might be a problem with Dictation that only the great Apple technicians can solve. Until now I have been able to get Dictation to work only intermittently.
I can see that this ingenious application would be of great help to many many people using their Apple computers. Please please have a look at this! Thank you for many years of the great Apple experience.

  • C++ project works, but where is the .app for it?  (Newbie question)

    Friends, a simple question:
    I open xCode 3.0 on Leopard and I make a new project (named "count2") using the command line utility C++ tool and enter the following application:
    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
    int main() {
    int i, n;
    // Get a number from the keyboard and initialize i.
    cout << "Enter a number and press RETURN: ";
    cin >> n;
    for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) // For i = 1 to n,
    cout << i << " "; // Print i.
    return 0;
    The application compiles and runs well.
    So my question is, where is the application that I can take from this project, and move to my Applications folder so every time I want to use this application I can simply double click it? I searched for count2.app, but cannot find it.
    Thanks amigos, -Migs

    Excellent Psycho. I have made a small Xcode tutorial and would like to post it here. Where do you suggest? Following is the text:
    C++ Programming on Macintosh OS X Leopard
    Many of you will want to get from your C++ textbook to a working application on your Mac quickly. Fortunately the Mac has an extremely powerful integrated design environment (IDE) that is available for free on every Mac that runs OS X, It’s called Xcode Tools. It can develop in many more languages than C++ so at first it may seem a bit overwhelming, but later, as your needs grow it will be a formidable tool in your arsenal. For now, all you need is the installer DVD that came with your Mac or a Mac OS X install DVD. (If you don’t have either of these you can also download the installer from Apple here http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/) I’m going to show you how to install Xcode for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) from the DVD, but the process is very similar for other previous versions of the Mac OS. Getting to your first running application is a little convoluted, so that is what this tutorial will help you to accomplish quickly.
    First you will install Xcode tools on your Mac since it is not installed by default when you upgrade your OS or install the OS for the first time. (Just to be sure it wasn't previously installed you can check by opening your Macintosh volume (not your User folder) and seeing if it contains a folder named “Developer” . If not, you need to go ahead and install it as follows:
    Insert your Mac OS X DVD and open Optional Installs. Open Xcode Tools. Double click the XcodeTools.mpkg package and install it on your Mac.
    In order to make using the Xcode IDE easier to access, open the Developer folder on your Mac, then the Applications folder and drag Xcode.app to your dock.
    Now you are ready to begin coding, so open Xcode Tools from your Dock and dismiss the “Welcome to Xcode” pop up. Select File/New Project and open Command Line Utility in the New Project Assistant. Now select C++ Tool and click Next. Choose a name for your project (It can be the name of your program) and were to save it. A project window will appear with the name you chose for your project. You may wonder what all the Groups and Files on the left side of the window are for, and though overwhelming, you must know that the Xcode Tools IDE which you are using allows you to make full blown applications which require all these parts, and not just the code you want to learn with in your first “Hello World” program. Fortunately all we need to focus on is one file that will be where you will edit your code. On the left hand pane entitled “Groups & Files” open the Source folder, then select the “main.cpp” file and in the same window click on the “Editor” button. You will also need a Console to view your program output, so in the main menu select Run/Console and open both windows so you can edit and view your code and your results simultaneously. Notice that the main.cpp window already has a sample program listing inside as a help to get you started. Here you can replace everything with your own code, and that is what you will do on your own, but for now let’s use the code they have in the default just to show you what to do next to get output out of the application. Click the “Build and Go” Button on the editor and watch the Console to see the results of your code execution. Now that you are done, go ahead and choose an example from your textbook and make a new project from scratch. Doing so will cement the steps in your head. -Migs (Miguel Reznicek)

  • HP Photo Creations - where's the text and graphics tabs?

    I downloaded V 3.5  HOwever I can't seem to find the tabs for text, graphics, etc. All I can find is touchup, crop, red eye, and one or two others. But where is the text and graphics, and the other cool ones.?  I'm sure I downloaded 3.5.
    melodee007

    Hi Melodee.
    The additional editing tools appear with collage projects. When you choose basic prints, you'll see only the touchup tools (crop, image adjustments, red-eye, airbrush, tint).
    In other words, to add text, borders, and graphics, choose Collage Prints instead of Prints. This link will take you there:
    Collage Prints
    There are quite a few cool effects in the touchup section, though.
    Under Image Adjustments, click Advanced Controls at the bottom of the screen to try the Posterize effect.
    Under Airbrush Effects, try the Rub Through, Blur, and Monochrome brushes. 
    Rub Through loads a photo in the background that's slowly revealed as you paint over the original photo. Blur is good for toning down distracting elements in your picture, making a snapshot look like a photo taken with a fancy lens. The photo below uses both those plus the Monochrome Brush.
    Hope this helps,

  • I'm trying to use Dictation.  Where does the text go, and how can I retrieve it?  Thank you.

    I'm trying to use Dictation.  Where does the text go, and how can I retrieve it?  Thank you.

    You dictate after you open a blank page in any text editor. The text goes on the page.
    You can use Text Edit for example (in your applications folder).
    With the blank page open, go to the Edit menu and select Start Dictation. When you are finished, you save the file as you would any other document. You can retrieve it, edit it or anything else you want, because it is a file like any other you create with that text editor.

  • ICloud is now working but where are my emails?

    Finally working for me but where are the 100 emails I know I got in the two days the service was out?  I get at least 50 a day and nothing in my in box except my test message I sent from Google.

    I called and spoke to someone in tech support and they were confident that the emails were being stored and would eventually come through, but I have so far gotten most, but not all of my emails from yesterday. New ones do seem to be coming through no problem.

  • My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do??? Can it be recovered plz tell?

    I sprayed it a year ago i really like the keyboard and i really need it can it be recovered??? My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do??? Can it be recovered plz tell?

    There is almost no chance it can be recovered, except at a cost far greater than a new keyboard.  Once wet, spraying with a cleaner will not do any good and most likely will make the situation worse.
    Best thing at this point is go to your Apple store, or the on-line store, and buy a new keyboard.  Water damage is not covered by the warranty or AppleCare.

    What version of Premiere Elements and what computer operating system? You have a few other threads awaiting follow up, and consequently that information
    is not available elsewhere.
    What is your specific export...
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    and Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or something like that.
    Specific please.
    But what specifically are you entering in the Save In: field of the dialog that includes the Save button to initiate the export process.
    Are you saving it as a file to the Desktop or to a specific folder on the Desktop? Have you given the export a distinctive file name?
    The screenshot shows the Save In: to the Desktop as a file.
    I have no idea of your background with the program, so I ask these questions so as to take nothing for granted.
    If the computer Desktop is crowded, as mine often is, it is easy to have difficulty spotting a file save to the Desktop.
    We will be watching for your follow up.
    Thank you.

  • My clock works, but in apps, the minute is stuck on :08 despite the hour and seconds being correct

    my clock works, but in apps, the minute is stuck on :08 despite the hour and seconds being correct. Like in Skype and calendar, when i put in the time, in the small window it will say "setting for 10:08" even though it's 10:30, and it'll show correctly on the visual.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • AGFA ppd driver worked but now reports the printer is busy?

    AGFA ppd driver worked but now reports the printer is busy?  The network location is definitely available by looking at the shared folders.  I can print through the network using the other Mac Book Pro that has the same OS and Driver.  This happened after the printers were cleared off and I had to reinstall them individually.  The driver was placed in th users profile printers folder and then applied to the IPP priter during setup a before.  -Any help is appreciated

    You're profile indicates your Mac has v10.5.1 installed.
    If that is correct, you need to update to v10.5.8.
    Click Software Update from your Apple  menu drop down menu or open System Preferences > Software Update.
    After the update is installed, restart your Mac.
    Turn off the printer then turn it back on then try printing via USB.
