The change pronunciation feature of my VoiceOver utility is not working

The change pronunciation feature of my VoiceOver utility is not working.  When I change the pronunciation of a word it makes no difference, the voice over still uses the original pronunciation.  This has happened both in Lion and Mountain Lion.  Any ideas what could be causing this?  How to rectify it?

If this post is correct, it can't be changed.

  • The Loupe Tool feature of Adobe Pro X does not work

    When working properly the area within the blue box should be magnified.  The magnification of the designated area should appear off to the side.  This is not happening.  The blue box is visible but no magnification.

    Hi,
    When you select the Loupe tool, and click on the pdf file, you see a blue rectangle and a Loupe tool window. Please see the image below:
    As Lori asked, do you see this window?

  • What connection should I use for the Change Management feature?

    I'm trying to evaluate the Change Management feature in SQL Developer 3.2.20.09 (Build MAIN-09.87), but whichever connection I use I get an error: "This is not a valid Enterprise Manager connection."
    I can connect to Enterprise Manager in my browser via https://<hostname>:1158/em and login as SYSTEM or SYS, but I've no idea how to create the appropriate connection in SQL Developer, and I can't find anything useful in the Help files.

    Problem is the charges are still astronomical if you should accidently exceed your tariff. One of the guys in my office clocked up a €300 bill when he exceeded the limit.

    Anytime you change networking hardware, it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of your networking components.
    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
    Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

    I don't understand your last paragraph.
    "The home page also has a full bar ..." What does "full bar" mean? " ... instead of the tray it had before."  What does "tray" mean?
    Anyway, you might try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout
    I guess that cannot make things any worse.

  • Fingerprint utility is not working for normal users - Tecra M11

    Hi All,
    I installed windows 7 pro in Tecra M11 laptop and the Toshiba finger print utility is not working for normal users.
    It is working only for domain administrators. The TFPU is not working for, normal domain users, local users, local administrators. If we run the utility it will ask to enter the windows password and once we applied the password then the message saying "entered password is not valid" will prompt even if we are trying to use the utility first time.
    If we try with a domain admin account it will work without any problem. Can somebody help me to trouble shoot this issue?
    Thanks.

    People nowadays experienced that no matter How many times we glide our finger it have no response.In this instance, you might be very afraid of Windows password lost by reason that there is a plenty of important data on your PC.
    Then what should you do? One choose is fix the Fingerprint scanners, but this method will cost a lot of money. The other is use the Windows password function to solve the problem. Certainly, this is a very safer, faster and easier to use method for you.
    According my personal experience, you can try these three ways to re-access to your PC:
    Method 1: Login with the default administrator account
    * Step 1: Start Windows PC
    * Step 2: When you can see the Windows login screen, press ctrl+alt+del keys Twice and it'll show Classic Login box
    * Step 3: Type Administrator as Username and leave the password field blank
    * Step 4: Press the Enter Key and then you can be able to login the default windows administrator account which is it created by default when install windows.
    *Note:* This trick is only work for Windows XP. And when you input the key combination Please don't put the cursor on any account. And if you change the name or password before, you cannot login by this way.
    Method 2: Use the previous password reset disk
    This method describes how to create and use a password reset disk for a computer that is a member of a domain. You can use a Windows password reset disk to gain access to your Microsoft Windows Professional-based computer if you forget your Windows password. Please click here to learn more.
    Method 3: Using Windows Password Unlocker
    Using Windows password remove software is could be the fastest and easiest way for you to reset your Windows password while you didn't create a password reset disk before.
    There are 2 options for you: recover Windows password with a bootable CD/DVD or recover Windows password with a USB flash drive.
    Before starting, a bootable CD/DVD or USB flash drive and a computer with CD drive are required. (Internal CD drive and external CD drive are both OK.
    Option 1: Recover Windows password by burning a bootable CD/DVD
    Option 2: Recover Windows password by burning a USB flash drive
    The whole Windows password recovery process can be divided to 3 big steps:
    * >> Step 1: Burn a USB flash drive to remove lost Windows password
    * >> Step 2: Set your target computer to boot from USB
    * >> Step 3: Recover forgotten Windows password with the burned USB flash drive
    In fact, all you need is a *Windows Password Unlocker www.passwordunlocker.com/windows-password-recovery.html which can help you directly reset your windows xp password, and then you can login your XP without a password required. Of course, there are also some other ways to do it, but this way may be most convenient one.

  • Disk Utility is not working for me.

    I have had a nightmare trying to install a Boot Camp partition on my brand new 27" iMac with 3TB Fusion Drive and running 10.8.4.
    When trying to use Boot Camp Assistant, it would start the partition, then not finish.  I quit BCA, tried repairing both the partition and the disk, that didn't help either.  So I went into Disk Utility to create a new partition with no file system on it, assuming I could just use Boot Camp Assistant to format it when the partition was created.  It would start, but not finish.  I tried Repairing the disk and the partition, neither helped.
    So I booted with CMD+R, launched Disk Utility, and tried to create a 500GB empty partition.  It started and just never quit, so I CMD+Q, got out of it, went back to Disk Utility, I found that I now have a 1.22TB empty partition and a 1.78TB Mac Partition.  This is probably my own fault, I should have just let it run, but after 20 minutes, it wasn't moving.
    I figured that would work okay, so I tried installing with BCA, but found it's looking for an HFS+ partition to resize and wouldn't work with an empty partition, so I figured I'd just format the empty partition as HFS+ and install with BCA.  Unfortunately, I can't get Disk Utility to format the partition.  I select the empty space, it puts a white block on it like normal titled Untitled 2, I select Mac OS Extended (Journaled), hit apply, something flashes very briefly over the "capacity" line, and then nothing happens.  Hit revert and it shows up with the Macintosh HD partition and the empty partition.  No matter what format I choose, nothing happens.  If I try to exit, it tells me that changes have not been saved.
    I'm trying to just extend the Mac partition, but the resizing option is not available.  I can't drag it to cover the Free Space partition, I can't type in the Size to resize it by number, I can't do anything.  I've tried to repair the disk and the partition, nothing happens.  I can't reclaim the space no matter what I do.
    At this point, all I want to do is recover the entire space of the hard drive for Mac OS.  I'll try again with Boot Camp Assistant after Apple works the kinks out.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    The Boot Camp Assistant in 10.8.4 should be able to partition your 3TB+ drive so you can have Windows. If Disk Utility is not working then your disk is corrupt. Backup all your data using Time Machine. Erase the volume and restore from Time Machine backup. You can use the ‘OS X Recovery Disk Assistant’ (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1433). Open Recovery Disk Assistant and follow the on screen instructions to create a Recovery HD on the external drive. When the Recovery Disk Assistant completes, the partition will not be visible in the Finder. To access the external Recovery HD, connect the drive, then restart the computer and hold the Option key. Select Recovery HD from the Startup Manager. You would need to re-install Mountain Lion up to 10.8.4.  Then ran Boot Camp Assistant and then install Windows.   Once you have confirmed that Windows is running then open up Migration Assistant (in the utilities folder) and migrate your Time Machine backup back on to the hard drive.

  • RAID Utility does not work after Vista upgrade

    Hi,
    I have a Qosmio G30 with 2 HD 120GB each. After I upgraded to Windows Vista from Windows XP, the Toshiba RAID Utility does not work anymore. In WXp it worked OK, but in Vista there is no way I can mirror the HD. That is, the utility itself work, but the button that should say Mirror, or something like that is not shown. I have set the drives to RAID-1 in the BIOS, but no go.
    Is there any way to get the software RAID to work again?

    Hi,
    just a little question: While installing vista, did you installed the RAID-driver at installation time? Maybe this could be the reason why RAID cannot be activated properly.
    Please give some feedback, if you installed the RAID drivers for Vista during the installation..
    Cheers

  • Im trying to change address on both phones! 150 number not working!

    im trying to change my address on both phones, 150 number not working, customer service one not working either, i just want someone to change it online, ee is so annoying!!

    Glad it is working for you. I suspect until they get the problems sorted, they are not doing the upgrades, as the weather has been bad and so need to get any damages sorted first, to make sure that people can connect.

    DDGT:
    Let me just post some general directions and see if you recognize them as the way you did them:
    1. Repair Disk Permissions
    While booted from your internal HDD
    Go to (Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left column and First Aid in main column.
    Click Repair Disk Permissions at bottom left.
    2. Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    +A problem with the restore function also accured ( i tried to restore my Macintosh HD to an external if anything wrong happens Un fortunatly the Hd has something wrong and DU cant fix it properly+
    First tell me about the HDD to which you are trying to install.
    • Is it a firewire, firewire/USB, or USB HDD?
    • Does the HDD have anything on it currently?
    • Was the HDD formatted Mac OS Extended before you attempted installation?
    • What method did you use in trying to backup the internal HDD to the external? e.g. what software did you use? Were you using Disk Utility or another backup software?
    You responses will help me give you specific directions in terms of how to go about accomplishing what you wish to do.
    Please post back with information on the points noted above.
    Cheers
