  • My computer is talking back, how do I turn it off

    I turned on something on my computer by pressing the buttons - control + F5. And now the computer talks back, saying every little thing I do like I am blind but not deaf. When I type is says what every little key I entered. And when I click on anything it will say what it is and highlight the icon or box with a bold black box. So, how do I turn it off.

    Tomorrow you will think this event was funny, however - for today....
    Go to system preferences (looks like a light switch on the dock)
    Click on "Universal Access" - it looks like a blue ball with a person.
    Play with the settings in there to get things back to what you want.
    This is for Tiger. If you are using Leopard it may be slightly different.
    Good Luck

  • HT202157 Apple TV & Computer stopped talking all of a sudden? Help

    My Apple TV 2 cannot connect to my computer all of a sudden. They both have the latest software updated, I can access all except it won't link to the library on my computer. I have done the signal strength test all fine. Any ideas?

    T141, try a reboot of the Router and the apple TV with all cables out for 30 seconds.

  • Is there a way to access your ipod from your computer and delete apps without plugging it into the computer im talking like if it were at someons house for the day but you wanted to delete an app off the ipod but you dont have access to it??

    i need apps to be deleted off my ipod .-.

    Yes if you have the iPod and iTunes set up to sync via wifi. However, you have to do it from your one syncing computer and the iPod and computer have to be on the same network.

  • Since I updated my operating system to OSXYosemite, my Adobe PS will not work on my Mac.  I have even downloaded it again to my computer without success.

    I have reinstalled the Adobe PSCS5 version to my computer, I talked with support for my Mac and tried several things without success.  Is it possible to remove OSXYosemite as my operating system and go back to what I ha previously?  I need my Photoshop now!  I have design work that is due now!
    Thanks to anyone who can help me with this problem.

    Reinstall Photoshop CS5 to fix the files damaged by the MacOS 10.10 installer.
    Then make sure you have all the CS5 updates installed as well.
    And make sure you have the MacOS 10.10.1 update that fixes a bunch of issues in MacOS 10.10.

  • Why does my computer randomly play advertisements with no prompting?

    At random times our computer will just play an advertisement. We could be sitting in the same room watching TV and all of a sudden our computer is talking to us. We could be tucked in bed and our computer starts talking to us. I could be typing this description and an advertisement will randomly play.

    Well, some programs have viruses that have random ad popups. I say, look through your programs, and if there isn't one that you remember downloading, please uninstall it. If this doesn't work, I say, download Adblock Plus.
    '''Next time, please include the kinds of advertisements.'''

  • MacBook Talking to me????

    My computer started talking the other day. I dont know what I might have done to get it to do this but someone please help me and explain how I can get it stop.. its quite annoying... Thanks, B

    Funny, because I accidently turned on the speech mode on my macbook today. I was trying to adjust the volume using the F4 and F5 keys, but I must have used the "control" or "command" key instead of the "fn" key. I'm pretty sure that's how I activated it. Finally figured out how to turn it off... same solution as offered above.

  • Mysterious black box outline, f1 thru f12 key commands are jumbled, talking

    my teacher came in two days ago complaining of a black box that outlines random places in active screens or active icons, and that her f1 thru f12 key commands weren't working properly....in fact, her volume buttons weren't working at all. we also noticed that some commands were doubled in their lists. for example, shut down and log out appeared twice in the apple drop down list. the next day, her computer began talking to her. what is happening? what should i do?

    my teacher did not follow directions. the answer to turn off voice command worked for the black box and f1 thru f12 keys. thank you. if she'd only done it the first time, i would have marked the question answered from my first responder. thank you again!

  • Qosmio G20 talks while its in sleep?

    Now this may sound odd, but my computer literally talks while it is in 'stand-by'!
    This only started happening after I reformatted about a month ago. When it is asleep, it talks in that odd-computer voice and says things like
    "Hello, how are you?"
    then it waits about 5seconds and replies to itself
    "I am fine thank you, and you?"
    What is this? does anyone else have this? does this serve a purpose?

    :) Hi
    I remember hearing that voice for the first time. And my Mother-in-Law was going to call the police when I left my QOSMIO at her place for a while. :)
    It's the Toshiba Speech System Screensaver. A rabbit in a jump-suit by the looks. And you can programme it to respond to your voice. Just say "Goodbye!"
    RightClick on the DeskTop, select Properties, and choose the Screensaver Tab. Click settings to see what you can do with the little rascal.
    I don't know how it can speak while your system is in Standby. Perhaps your monitor is set to switch off, but your QOSMIO is still actually running.

  • Just me talking?

    Since two days ago, a strange problem has been going on with just one person and me, I think those two nights I forgot to log off Skype off my phone, I don't think that has anything to do with this though
    It is like on phone, I see only myself RPing with my friend and none of my friend's responses but I could easily see on my computer, odd...
    Well anyway I didn't see this happening after the two days ago ( I think I said that wrong? I don't explain well )

    How do I get my computer to talk to me ? Maybe it can explain to me how I can get the optical drive to eject properly. That would be nice then I could reinstall the operating system.
    I was hoping that my cat would of luckily hit the right key as I was shooing him out of the workspace. Kinda of like a roulette wheel landing on a lucky number That didn't work either.
    Cheers

  • Problem connecting cRIO-9072 to the computer

    We have to connect the cRIO-9072 to the computer remotely through a wireless medium. We have a fixed and dedicated IP address so that the network connected to the computer can talk to the cRIO in the remote location wirelessly. However, we are unable to connect the cRIO to the computer. There is no problem in connecting the cRIO to the computer through Ehternet cable physcially but when made wireless the  computer no longer recongnises the cRIO. 
    What could be the solution to this issue ?

    Hi rarun7,
    If your cRIO is on a different subnet than your computer, there can be a few issues in connecting to it.  I would recommend ensuring that the subnets match on both the computer and the cRIO.  If your cRIO is still not showing up in Measurement and Automation Explorer (NI MAX) after the subnets match, please refer to the document I have provided below.  Hopefully, some of the suggestions in the document will allow you to achieve a connection!
