Siri for speech recognition with five year olds

my reading program teaches 55 words in volume one, go to www,montessorihome,com scroll and download some free lessont o your iphone or ipad.
How can we deploy SIRI and have the kids answer the device and we see if its correct and move on.
thanks

As Siri requires that you speak clearly and with a pronunciation as close to the standard as possible, I suspect it won't work very well for five-year-olds. Children that young have not entirely mastered all phonemes. Additionally, I don't believe that Apple has opened up the API for Siri for use in other apps, though I could be wrong about that. You would be better off posting in the Developers' Forum.

I would like to upgrade my OS to the latest version. I now have 10.6.8 and my machine has 1Gb of memory. Need 2Gb for the new OS. Is is possible (and practical) to add memory to a machine that's five years old?

You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.

OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
You can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store witht a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. As for programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.
These are good online stores for Mac compatible RAM
OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/ - They offer Mac tested RAM at very good prices.
Crucial Memory http://www.crucial.com/ - good place to buy RAM from all over the world. They also have an excellent memory selector that allows you to choose memory based on your computer's model
Data Memory Systems http://www.datamemorysystems.com/apple-memory.asp - another good, cheap place to buying RAM if you live in the U.S.
Here are instructions on replacing RAM in a MacBook with a removable battery. http://homeoffice.consumerelectronicsnet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=44404

I have a Pro that's about five years old. It doesn't have a hash tag on the keyboard which is useless for Twitter. How do I set up a shortcut. Help is useless

hello, for the old sync system in firefox 28 and below you also had to sign up with a mail address and password originally - to connect firefox to the old account you would need to have all those three pieces (mail, password & recovery key) available to you unfortunately...

Firefox urges me to update my Flash Player to one with system requirements that exceed my five year old laptop's. What can I do, short of buying a new laptop?

Hi!
Today's Firefox update urges me to update my Flash Player to a version with system requirements that exceed my five year old laptop's (Intel Core Duo, 1.66 GHz, 667 MHz with Intel Integrated GM Accelerator 950 GM).
I am already considering dropping back to Flash Player 9 because of the system requirement issue (and seeing blank image boxes at bhg.com). Is Firefox 6.0.2 compatible with Flash Player 9?
What else can I do, short of buying a new laptop? Surely others have the same issue?

Is it possible to use Speech Recognition with Final Cut Studio?

Is it possible to use Speech Recognition with Final Cut Studio?
Using either Speech, AppleScript, Automator or a 3rd party app
like iListen, can I enable Final Cut Studio apps to respond
to voice commands?
(e.g. I say "I" in Final Cut Pro and it sets an in point)
thanks

Yes, I wish "Make it really good" and "Fix my rough cut"
were commmands too
I did hear from the folks at iListen that
they are planning on releasing a ScriptPak
for Final Cut Studio next year which could be
cool
and that yes, iListen has some capability to
integrate Speech Recognition with Final Cut,
guess I need to give it a try for a test ride

Five year old Powerbook, time to let go?

I'm Hangin'On to a five year old Powerbook G4 17in. Two years ago the computer crashed and I was able to get it back to normal with an 'Erase and Install' from the disc. Last week it happened again. I had more trouble getting it back, but was able to repeat the 'Erase and Install' and now the computer works 80% of the time. When symptoms resurface, the performance slows greatly, the "spinning ball of death" taunts me for minutes, and occasionally the screen goes blank and I have to force a Shut Down. When I restart it, I get a message that the "OS unexpectedly quit".
There's also a buzzing sound from the left side.
Is it time to let her go?

Hangin'On:
There will always be newer, faster, more powerful computers coming along. Any computer you buy today will be old in a couple of years. The question is, does the computer you have do for you what you need to have done. I would love to get a MacBook Pro, but my wife asks me whether I think I really need one, and I can't honestly say that I do. My eight year old Pismo does for me all that I need to have done. Of course, a MBP will do things I can't do with this baby, but at what cost?
Now, back to your PB G4. Installing a new HDD will breathe new life into your computer. Here are the steps:
• Select and purchase a new HDD.
• Install the new HDD in your computer.
• Format and erase the new HDD.
• Install OS and migrate stuff from old HDD
Your computer will support a 2.5" Parallel ATA/IDE drive up to 250 GB. Here is a list of available drives for your computer. Use the filters in the sidebar to screen for capacity, Manufacturer etc. You can compare drives by checking the boxes then clicking the Compare button at the top. When you see the drive you want, click the button to Compare Prices to the right.
Once you have the drive in hand you will need to install it in your computer. Here are step by step directions for installing the HDD. Once you have the HDD, post back with questions about the directions. At that time I will also post additional tips.
In the interest of keeping this post manageable I will post later with directions for formatting the newly installed HDD, and installing the OS and migrating your data.

Hey guys. I want to connect my MacBook to my Samsung television and don't know what cable to purchase. It's a five year old machine and I presume a fairly simple solution but would appreciate it if someone could link me up to the correct cable to buy.

Depends on what input plug you'll be using on your TV. VGA, DVI, Composite or HDMI. You'll need a Mini-DVI adapter and a cable from that to your TV. Here's the various types of Mini-DVI adapters on Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13
(Composite is the red, white and yellow RCA plugs on your TV or red, white and S-Video plugs.)
You'll also need audio cables to the TV using a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs for VGA, DVI or Composite. You attach it from the headphone jack of your MacBook to the appropriate input plugs on your TV http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=min i-dvi&x=9&y=13#/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_19?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=macbo o k+audio+cable&sprefix=macbook+audio+cable&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amacbook+audio+cable
If you connect the MacBook using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo system for audio if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug. The Mini-DVI to HDMI doesn't carry audio and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.

Using Nuance dragon for speech recognition

Hello guys i'm trying to use Nuance dragon for speech recognition in labveiw and i would like to learn how to use its activex components.thankyou in advance

the unfortunate dilemma is there are no "good headsets" relly very adequate for use with dragon
Most of the dictation pros have a high quality Sony mic or otherwise that hooks thru USB
consider a nice USB headset with mic setup like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Andrea-Electronics-C1-1022600-50-USB-Microphone/dp/B003VW4 1G8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1383235025&sr=1-1&keywords=Andrea+Elect ronics+C1-1022600-50
If you dont mind spending a bit more for professional audio input, get the ZOOM h2n, professional audio at a low consumer price.
ultimately DRAGON needs very CRISP audio, and almost no headset with cheap mic provides same

Bluetooth Headset for Speech recognition?

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if I can use a bluetooth headset with a good mic to be used with the speech recognition feature in Leopard? Has anyone tried this?

Bump...
I'd also love to know if there's a Bluetooth headset that will work with the built-in speech recognition in Leopard. Failing that, a USB microphone that's known to work.
(Incidentally, the built-in mike on my Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro works fine with Skype on the Mac, but is useless for speech recognition).

My macbook is five years old and has become slow. often displays the whirling kaleidoscope. can anyone please give me advice on what to do?

Quite often the HDD is the source of the problems. Look at this comprehensive guide for possible solutions:

Hello!
I have a 8GB Ipod touch. I the other ine is worth the difference, because the simple ios 5.0 takes like 3 GB!!!
Another reason is that new some apps take 500 MB. I'm going to ask for the 32GB model for Christmas, and I am very disappointed with the amount of files you can have in the 8GB Ipod.
Hope it helps you!

Having trouble with image size on new HP2311x display with 4 year old MacBook. Image too small. Do I have to stay in mirror mode? I have messed with OSD and Image Control menus on display and have gotten nowhere. Help?

Have just installed new HP 2311x display withe 4 year old MacBook. VGA cable. In mirror mode, at high resolution of 1920x1080, image size on HP display is too small. How can I get it to fill screen? If not in mirror mode, the display looks good, only I can't get the top menu bar (tried to drag it) nor the rest of the desktop. Help?

Apparently if you have a five year old iPod you can swap it with another one, is this true?

i heard that if you have a five or more year old ipod you can swap it for a ipod nano is this true. if so how do i do it
Farzad Jami

Never heard of it... A "five or more year old iPod" is like a 4th or 5th gen iPod (or iPod mini). Not worth all that much...
BUT if you had an ELEVEN year old iPod from 2001 that is still working, you could probably sell it on eBay and buy yourself a new iPod nano (or maybe even iPod touch).

How do I enable my new macbook pro to become my default computer to sync all my apple devices-iphone 4, touch, ipod classic, nano? My five year old dell's hard drive has only 2GB of space available and is currently the computer I use for all these device

I have a new macbook pro that I wish to sync all my apple devices--ipodclassic,nano,iphone4,touch-- that are currently synced with a 5 year old windows based computer with only 2GB of available hard drive space. How can I do this and maintain all of my info-contacts, songs,photos etc without losing this data< Thanks

you can either update to lion/ios5 and use the cloud to sync or you can plug in said devices and sync them with your MBP instead of your dell via a tethered usb connection.
also, sign into your itunes store account on your mac.
