Microphone works but dictation does not work

     My dictation software was working fine then suddnely not so much. I have ensured it has been enabled, I have selected automatic detection as the default, I have choesen the internal microphone as the default, I have chosen the external microphone as the default, I have even deleted the
file://localhost/Users/williams/Library/Preferences/com.apple.assistant.plist file and rebooted, tested my internal and external microphones through the system preferences dictation setup (both register as working while in dictation preferences as indicated by the microphone symbol responding to sound), I've ensured the language was set to english (US) and closed all other programs.
     Once the dication command is selected the microphone pops up and viola no response as if the microphone is no longer working!!! I am sooo much more productive with the speech to text function and really need it back. Anyone with any new/additional suggestions will be most welcome and I appreciate the help!

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • TS3367 facetime used to work but now does not work on any of my devices

    I have been in regular contact until about 4 days ago using facetime on my iphone 5 imac 10.7.5. ipad 2 now none of these devices work from incoming calls from Philipinnes. Take note the caller had latest macbook pro 13 inch  and is able to call Guam on fatetime with success. What is happening why is incoming calls alway failing. This has been 4 days running and is not good enough. Okay I havent got the latest updates but why in the late few days whould this effect anything. I mean 3 devices and none of them work. This is most frustrating and annoying. I have intead used skype which does work but at night time the camera is not as clear. Tanke note also earlier in the year I received calls from Vietnam and although I did have dropouts was always able to connect only these last four days have had no success. Also I have not been able to call out. The wireless has full bar and am near the modem that is not an issue. Unless there has been a recent change why is htis not working all of a sudden.

    THere seems to be a FaceTime issue and some users who have been in contact with Apple support claim that Apple is working on this.
    I have read many posts on the issue and have seen that there are many reporting that when they have updated their various devices to the latest software, the issue has been resolved.
    You can wait for Apple to resolve the issue OR you can update everything to the latest software and see if this solves your issues.

  • DM - "Export from Fact Table" works but "Export" does not work properly

    Hi,
    I'm using BPC7M.
    I found it strange that Export cannot dump data to a flat file though I'm pretty sure my selection of dimension members contain data. The existing of data was further confirmed by running Export from Fact Table successfully, where I chose the same set of dimension members. Below are the log files.

    I tried Export in another application and it worked properly. Maybe there is something wrong with the application but I don't know how I can fix this.
    Thanks!
    Sunny

    Hi Sorin,
    In order to make sure the sum is not equal to 0, I ran the "Clear" package and full optimize the application. Afterwards, I deliberately sent only 1 record. I ran the "Export from Fact Table" and I have the following contents in my output flat file.
    B_ACCOUNT,TIME,WED_ENTITY,DATASRC,CATEGORY,SIGNEDDATA
    KPI0001,2009.INP,DEP_INPUT,INPUT,ACTUAL,-500.0000000
    This confirms that the sum is not 0. Then, I ran "Export" package. Yet again, I encountered the same error.
    There is no data in the selected region; select a region that has data._2_True
    Best Regards,
    Sunny

  • Tax % - FB70 works but VF01 does not work????

    Hi all
    I manually entered a tax jurisdiction into the standard Costing procedure 'TAXUSJ' as CA102000.  I went to FTXP & entered my output tax code as O1, picked the state of California's juris. CA1002000 & entered 7.25% in the A/R Sales tax 2 against account key MW2 (I dont know why it suppressed account key MW1).  Checked if the GL accounts were defined & they were defined as 216010. 
    Then I went to FB70 (customer invoice) & I picked that jurisdiction & it calculated the tax perfect.  But when I asked the SD consultant to do a sales order, goods issue & delivery & then when he created the accounting document it did not generate any tax entry to that GL account.  What could be the possible reason.  The GL account for that invoice was 400000 & it has a * for the 'tax type' in the FS00 master data screen.  So I dont know what could be the reason. 
    Again it is a manual entry for the tax jurisdiction.   I could see that the jurisdiction on the customer master was picked up as CA1002000.
    Can somebody help please...
    Thanks for all your time....

    Entry for the condition table in VK19 for the satet of California was missing.

    Internal microphone on Compaq NX6310  does not work and I can't locate it on my list of devices. What is the problem and how can I correct it? Thanks, Brian

    I seriously doubt that Apple will accept your iPad for service/exchange since it sounds like it's a real basket case.  If they
    Do accept it, the cost would be 99USD, but if it is a 64Gb model it will cost 199USD.  The best thing for you to do is to take it into the nearest Apple store to see if they will accept it for repair/exchange.  I can tell you that they definitely will not give you an iPhone in exchange.

  • Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

    If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

    why not sort by (name, date, etc) and Click on 1st and Shift-Click on last.
    Might work better to copy or import to a project folder.
