Speech recognition works momentarily :(

MAcbookpro 2011
I use speech recognition % times (5 commands, and then it doesnt ecognize any commands and i cant calibrate it (doesnt recognize either). No arrow pointing to mic in speech rec. "bubble" Please help

I have the same issue, except it seems to work just once. After that it is hearing my voice as the "lines are moving upwards" but there are "no arrows point to mic". After logging out and in, it works only once.
The issue is that it stops listening for commands.

Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled on mountain lion?

I'm trying to use speech recognition to input text on my iMac running the latest mountain lion, 10.8.3.
I have sticky keys enabled.
When I try to start speaking by pressing the function key twice nothing happens. I can only get it to work if I disable sticky keys.
The same problem occurs with all the other modifier keys as shortcut, they do not work with sticky keys.
When I try to select a different shortcut, I am unable to select a two key combination, but am limited to one.
If I select the F6 key, or any other single key, I am able to start speech recognition. However the second time that I press the key, it does not stop recognition and process my words. Instead, it restarts the recognition.
Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled?
Or a way to get an individual key shortcut to start on the first press and process it on the second?
Or a way to get key combinations to work, as specified by the help:
Dictation On and Off
To use Dictation, click On.
When you’re ready to dictate text, place the insertion point where you want the dictated text to appear and press the Fn (function) key twice. When you see the lighted microphone icon and hear a beep, the microphone is ready for you to speak your text.
Shortcut
By default, you press the Fn (Function) key twice to start dictation. If you like, you can choose a different shortcut from the menu.
To create a shortcut that’s not in the list, choose Customize, and then press the keys you want to use. You can press two or more keys to create your shortcut.

I noticed with version 10.8.4 of OS X that I am now able to select F6 to activate, and the return key to complete the speech recognition. This is still different than the description of how these should function that's included in the help, but at least it's an improvement.

Speech recognition working only sometimes

I've got an iPhone 4S. I use the speech recognition regularly in order to dictate a text message (in German, mostly).
This has worked pretty well.
Usually, I dictate a sentence, then wait for the iPhone to transcribe it, then dictate the next sentence (i.e., click microphone button, dictate, cick "done").
But some time ago (can't remember when) it started to work only ever so often.
The first sentence usually works fine. The next ones don't work any more - it doesn't come back with a transcription :-(
When I dictate a few hours later another sentence(s), some procedure.
Sometimes, I get a few sentences in a row, but eventually, it stops working.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?
What could I do to improve the speech recognition performance?
Best,
Gabriel.

I couldn't have asked that any better - I have been wondering the same thing since Thursday. I have looked around and can't figure it out either. Anyone with advice - I'd love some direction.

Speech Recognition stops working after a minute of nonuse

I'm a grad student trying to keep from exacerbating my carpal tunnel and just figured out how to use the voice commands on my macbook. So far, they work great, they hear my voice, it does what I tell it to do, and I'm not constantly hitting apple+tab and apple+c and apple+v and so on, which really helps my wrists!
BUT. If I go for more than a minute or two without using a voice command, it stops working. I can't pinpoint anything else that triggers it other than if I stop using it for a little bit while I'm reading a paper or something. The microphone is calibrated and working, the little black arrows and the blue and green bars flash on the widget like it hears me, but then it won't give me the sound that says the command was recognized and it doesn't perform the command any time I try to use it again after a few minutes of not being used. It's like the recognition part goes to sleep and won't wake up.
If I go to the system preferences and toggle Speakable Itemst off and then on again, it starts working again until another minute or two of non-use. If I use spoken commands constantly, it will stay on for a good long while, but I'm not using it constantly that's the end of speech recognition. I really can't stop to just tell it some unneeded command to keep it awake all the time! Eventually, the computer gets confused if I turn the "speakable items" on and off too many times from the System Preferences, and it gets confused about whether or not it's turned on or off, or the widget disappears but the System Preferences panel thinks the Speakable Items is on.
I read somewhere that other people with a newer OS have a similar problem if they don't use the default speaking voice, so I switched to Alex and restarted, and the same thing is still happening.
I'm running 10.5.8, and using safari, word 2011, preview, nothing too crazy. My speech recognition is in "Listen only while key is pressed" mode, and like I said, works great until I stop using it for a minute or so. I'm using the internal microphone on my MacBook (dob circa 2008). Any tips on how I can actually keep my Speech Recognition useful? Thanks in advance!

OK, I have one more question now, seems to be the same as this question which was never answered years ago:
Speakable Commands>Application Switching -- how to delete items?
When I click on the triangle from the speech command widget and open speech commands, there is a TON of stuff there that I'll never ever use, but these things do not appear in the Library/Speech/Speakable Items folder so that I might be able to delete them. For example, one item I'd like to turn off is just the word "Home" and the computer keeps thinking that I said "Home" instead of whatever else I meant to say. Another keeps opening iChat or Mail, when I say "open new window" or something like that. I tried clicking, control clicking, option clicking, nothing will highlight a command in the Speech Commands window so that I might delete it.
The "Home" command only shows up when I'm using Word, in the "front window" list. However, the Application Speakable Items/Microsoft Word folder is empty. Is there some other way to get into the speakable commands list and weed out unwanted stuff?

I wanted to buy a Dragon ,Speech Recognition Programme for Mac but it says its for Lion, and I have Snow Leopard. Would it have worked on Snow leopard?

I wanted to buy a Dragon ,Speech Recognition Programme for Mac but it says its for OS Lion, and I have OS Snow Leopard. Would it have worked on Snow Leopard?

The simplest method would be to ask them for their Snow Leopard version and say you can't upgrade to 10.7 or 10.8. I'm almost sure they will sell you a copy.
Generally if your machine can only upgrade to 10.7 Lion and not directly to 10.8 Mountain Lion, then it's best left on 10.6.8. in my opinion as your going to loose too much other software and slow down your machine in the process.
This rapid OS X upgrade cycle has caused plenty of problems for users and developers alike, so I suspect you will find a sympathizer with the developer.
In fact I'm not recommending Mac's to anyone anymore because Apple simply has lost touch with reality.

Can't Get speech recognition to work.

When i try to get speech recognition to work nothing happens. I have calibrated it, it regognises everything i said when i calibrated it. I know i am using the right microphone (internal) and it works because you can see.
When i click on speech commands all that it says is ??? does that have something to do with it?
Why isn't it working? i don't necessarily need it i just want to know why its not working?
Thanks Alex.

yeah my Australian friend showed me his speech recognition, and he had to do and american accent to get it to work as it could not understand his accent at all. They should have a choice of an real 'English' voice on Apple.
Thanks for your help heres the crash report.

Speech Recognition not working when tested in IE on Windows 8.1

Hi,
I have adapted the example code form the Speech Recognition documentation to fire up Speech recognition in Visual Studio for Web Express 2013 on Windows 8.
The speech synthensizer works fine when I fire up the app in IE and produce Text-to-speech, but when I try the Speech recognition code, all I get is "Waiting for Localhost" messages, and no result.
Is there a problem with speech recognition with Web development using browsers? (I tried and failed in Opera as well)
I am keen to use speech recognition for a webapp, ultimately serving mobile devices with the power of server-based processing.
Anyone help please?

Hi simulsys,
I am moving your question to the moderator forum ("Where is the forum for..?"). The owner of the forum will direct you to a right forum.
If it is related to the Windows Speech Recognition, this forum would be better:

Or it is the Speech Server issue:

Speech recognition not working properly!

I just started trying out the speech recognition tool in Snow Leopard and I seem to be having problems with it. When I calibrate it (using the internal mic) it works fine and understands those phrases perfectly but when I actually say the exact same thing outside of the calibration process the computer doesn't seem to understand. I know it's picking up my voice because the little widget thing animates as is does when it hears sound and the "Speakable Items" option is set to on . It actually worked once yesterday when I tried it for the first time, I told it to switch to an app and it did but that was the end of it.
What should I do? I haven't updated the software to 10.6.1, would this perhaps solve the issue? I don't know if it worked before I upgraded to Snow Leopard because this is the first time I've tried it out

Had the same problem. Could only resolve by going back to Snow Leopard.

Speech recognition not working

I have an iPhone 5 and for several months, no form of speech recognition has worked, whether for Siri or, for example, voice dictation when sending text messages,
Whenever I try to use the feature, the line does not wave at all, as though the mic is not picking up any sound. But I can speak to people on the phone just fine.
It's been this way for several months, and the phone has be reset and shut on and off several times in theat period. I switched Siri on and off in that time as well. Can anyone help me?

You should have mentioned that so I can saved some typing.
Have you tried these 2 basic troubleshooting steps?

Speech Recognition Not Working. Why?

I have a 6-month old Macbook (OSX 10.5.5), and I want to try out the built in speech recognition software. For some reason, it won't accept any input, no matter the configuration I put it in. When I click calibrate, it's slow to open, and no matter what I do with the slider, it won't recognize my commands. I've tried it in a new account, but without success. It appears to be system-wide. Also, there are no items in the speakable items folder, and a feedback box does not appear on the desktop. Any ideas?

Im assuming you've used the Sound pane to check that the built-in mic is working, and that you've remembered to click on the "Speakable Items" radio button.
There are a couple of fixes that normally work when changing user helps, but it is possible that two user accounts have the same problems!
1)
Have you got any items in Address Book that are marked as "Company" but have no company name in them? This is an old problem that was supposed to have been fixed with Leopard, but I've heard people complaining about it occasionally since. If there are, try going through them and putting in the company names, then log out and back in again.
2)
Try deleting the preference files
com.apple.speech.recognition.recognizer.prefs.plist
com.apple.speech.recognition.AppleSpeechRecognition.prefs.plist
com.apple.speech.recognition.feedback.prefs.plist
all in ~/Library/Preferences/
Failing those, and the missing Speakable Items suggests that's not the fault, try downloading and reapplying the latest Combo updater.
If that doesn't do the trick, you may have to reinstall the OS.
Sorry!
Archie

Speech Recognition Not Working Well

Not matter how hard I try to get my speech recognition to work on my MacBook Pro, it is very temperamental! Even when I am in a quiet space it will respond, but after a while it won't. I've tried calibrating it, etc but doesn't make a huge difference.
What makes me think there is a problem is the fact that when speech recognition is activated there is supposed to be lights that light up (on the actual speech recognition widget thing - as I have noticed on various other MacBook Pro users' YouTube videos). But for mine, the bottom, blue light only lights up; and no matter how loud I shout at it, the blue light DOESN'T then go on to the green light. However, when I calibrate it, my speech is recognised as being in the 'green area'; so I am speaking t the right level.
I appreciate your help!

Speech Recognition Dictation Stopped Working In Most Applications

In the past I have dictated into the text boxes of many different programs on several computers, but now dictation appears to work only in some programs such as Notepad and Internet Explorer on one of them. Yet for me it is more important that it work
in Windows Live Mail and Miranda IM. EDIT: Attempts to dictate in these programs now produces only "What was that?". Exiting and restarting WSR and WSR Macros does not help.
Simulating keystrokes with the press command and WSR Macros continue to work as expected.

Hi,
According to your description, this problem probably caused by Microphone, it would be better to reinstall its driver for test to fix the problem.
Please check Microphone properties and restore its settings for test.
In addition, Speech Recognition also has multiple settings to improve itself performance, please check if these settings helpful with your problem.

Speech recognition doesn't work

Hi. I used to use my iBook's Speech recognition software all the time, but can't seem to get my Macbook's to work. Any thoughts?
I am familiar with it and have got it to work in the past on my old laptops. I also use Text to Speech - I'm not sure why this doesn't work.

Without knowing the specifics of your problem it's hard to really suggest anything. Have you adjusted your settings correctly in System Preferences/Speech, and while in Finder have you clicked on 'Help' in the top menu? If you enter 'Speech Recognition' in the Help searchbox it will provide you with a lot of different trouble shooting tasks/hints.

I'm in the UK and I cannot get the speech recognition to work in Google Translate

I'm in the UK and I cannot get the speech recognition to work in Google Translate.
Anyone else having the same problem, not sure if it's my ipad 2 or the software's problem?
It keeps saying "Speech recognition not available. Check network or try again."
All my other apps work fine through Wifi and and Google Search and Chrome works fine through speech recognition. Strange.

is this a 3rd party application?

Speech recognition for a programmer with RSI (not how to do in Java)

Guys, someone that I know has developed RSI and has almost had to drop out of programming.
Has any other programmer here been faced with this and been able to work around it? In particular, have you found a decent speech recognition system that allowed you to continue to work?
Note that I am not interested in learning how to implement speech recognition in a Java program, which is what [most of the posts here|http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5310499&tstart=0] are concerned with.
I am aware of Dragon Naturally Speaking, but there are some terrible reviews of it which have made me nervous. But if any of you give a glowing review, I will reconsider.
Since this is a java forum, and one of the best academic research projects in this field is [Sphinx-4|http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/sphinx4/] which is based on Java, does anyone know of an end user application comparable to Dragon Naturally Speaking which uses Sphinx-4?
