What is Speech Recognition and how do you use it?

Hello, people. I was on my System Preferences and just out of curiosity, I clicked on Speech. Then there was a tab on the right called Speech Recognition. What is Speech Recognition and how do you use it?

When you turn it on the default should be listen only when ESC key is pressed. Hold the ESC key and say, in your normal voice, "show me what to say".
For fun.. say "tell me a joke"

    It's a sports-related title. Double click it and it will be edited as a connected clip above your primary storyline.
    Select it and in the Inspector click on the Video tab. There are two drop zones. Click on one of them and select an image from your event. Repeat for the other. Hit Apply Clip.

  • Ringbacktones - what are they and how do you use them

    I went to VCast tones to download some Ringtones and accidently bought a Ringbacktone.
    I would like to know what the Ringbacktones are and how do you configure them to work on your phone.
    Downloading Ringtones and setting them up for different users is easy.   However, I don't see any way to download Ringbacktones or how to set them up for contacts.
    Any information or instructions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    What are Ringback Tones? Ringback Tones is a new personalization service, which replaces the standard ringtone for your friends and family to enjoy. Choose a song for your callers to hear before you pick up a call. Use the language of music to express yourself before you answer a call and say a word.
    How to purchase Ringback Tones? Ringback Tones may be purchased through the Internet, and through text messages to the Ringback Tone shortcode (728), use "RBT", "LIST", or the 3-digit song code in the message.* *Not Available in ALL Markets Check the Service Availability tab on the Ringback Tones Website.
    Click HERE for more info on Ringback tones
    You cannot upload your own ringback tones or make them. Ringback tones are stored to Verizon's servers. So you just cannot. You will have to buy one directly from Verizon if you want it

  • What are muse templates and how do i use them?

    what are muse templates and how do i use them?

    thank you for the information. the reason i am asking is that i am having a problem with a website i am building in muse, specifically the functionality of my accordion menu. the accordion menu is on the left side of the page with a couple of elements directly beneath it. i would like the elements directly below the accordion menu to be pushed down when the menu is opened, however the menu is pushing everything on the page that is below down when it is opened. i have attached images to illustrate what i am talking about. is there any way that i can have the accordion menu push down just the elements directly below down and ignore all of the other elements on the page?

  • What is javadoc for and how can i use it?

    Hello,
    I want to know what for
    */is and how I can use it?

    It works like this:
    You add comments between /** and */ in your source code for all your classes, methods, variables etc. Then you run the javadoc tool, which is included with the JDK. Read the Javadoc Tool Documentation for instructions about how to use it.
    The javadoc tool looks at the comments in your source code and generates a directory containing HTML pages. The HTML pages contain the documentation of all your classes and methods.
    Why would you want this? Because other people who are going to use your source code do not want to browse through all of your source code all the time to find out how your classes work. Having a good manual in the form of HTML pages generated by javadoc is much more convenient.

  • What is the Debugger and how do you turn it off?

    Hi folks, I'm updating a site for a client and when I open
    the home page
    http://www.imcnewcastle.com
    I get this annoying pop up from Adobe flash player 10 asking
    if my debugger
    is on this machine or host application and it locks up if I
    try to connect
    to local.
    What the heck is this and how do I keep it from turning on? I
    don't want
    browsers to get locked up.
    Thanks

    It's annoying when you don't want to bebug, I agree, but the
    situation
    you're describing is really useful when you need to debug
    Flash content in a
    browser. ;)

    > I don't want browsers to get locked up.
    Assuming you have the FLA source file, open it in the Flash
    authoring
    tool and head over to File > Publish Settings. Select the
    Flash tab, then
    uncheck the "Permit debugging" checkbox, then republish the
    SWF.
