Did Microsoft skipped this facility in WP8

Have you initiated speech serviced in settings and downloaded your specific language pack? It is nit always installed by default?

In "Messages", I can no longer use voice commands to enter the message. Mic icon greyed out.

I use the voice recognition (press the mic icon) capability for text messages regularly. After the last iOS update, it's greyed out and doesn't allow me to use it anymore.
Is there a work around for this?

To use "dictation" as it is called, there are two requirements:
1. Siri must be turned on (Settings > General > Siri)
2. You must be connected to the internet.

Why can't i use command F in Notes?

Hi all, i recently upgraded my to a newer macbook. i used to be able to use command f to search my notes. i'm now using 10.8.2 and for some reason i can't search/find. i hit 'command f' i get the bleep sound. when i look at Edit > Find > Find, the word find is greyed out.
what should i do? i've tried googling and searching for a solution but the work 'notes' is too broad and so it brings up loads of irrelevant stuff.
thanks
shane

Hi, thanks but no good. can you see how the 'command f' function is greyed out in the image below? why can't i use that 'Find' function? the box you've identified does a broad brush search to see if any of my notes contain a word but don't identify where the words are within the note. i have some notes with 10's of thousands of words.
does anyone know how i can use the traditional 'Find' function?

Can I use Voice Commands (Speech) to control the DVD Player?

Problem: I want to insert a DVD in the the DVD drive and use voice commands to stop, pause, play, move forward, move back, and quit the DVD Player. Is this possible? If so how would I do this?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Jim Minor

You can create a speakable item. Use AppleScript Editor (Applications > Utilities > AppleScript Editor) to write the appropriate AppleScript to perform the desired action, and give it a name which is the command you want to speak. Then, make a subdirectory in the Speakable Items directory named "DVD Player" and copy your script to it. You should be able to speak the name of the script when DVD Player is in the foreground and have the script execute.
An example script (Play.scpt):
tell application "DVD Player"
play dvd
end tell
Other commands that the DVD Player application understands:
fast forward dvd
pause dvd
rewind dvd
stop dvd
step dvd
go to \[ main menu / title menu / subpicture menu / audio menu / angle menu / beginning of disc \]
press \[ up arrow key / down arrow key / left arrow key / right arrow key / enter key \]
open VIDEO_TS
open dvd video folder
play next chapter
play bookmark
play named bookmark
play video clip
play named video clip
exit clip mode
obscure cursor
eject dvd
The DVD Player application also has a bunch of properties related to chapters, titles, subtitles, etc.

You need to ClickDrag just a tiny bit, then apply the Shift Option Command.

How do I use voice commands with CC on my Mac?

Howdy all! Just made the switch to Adobe from Final Cut 7. Overall, I'm digging it a bunch.
However, there's one aspect of CC on my Mac that's vexing me.
As you may know, there is speech recognition / voice command software built in to Mountain Lion (it's been around for years, and many iterations of OSX). With this software, you can make any number of custom voice commands for another piece of software. For instance, in FCP 7, I can program the keystroke "l" (play track) to respond to the voice command, "Forward." (It can be any word or phrase you type in.) This works with other programs as well.
All well and good, and pretty dang cool. However, I can't make any voice commands work with any of the CC software (I've tried Premiere and Media Encoder so far). I'm curious if anyone else has had any luck, or, perhaps, that the ported interface from Windows to Mac has some layer of code that (probably inadvertantly) blocks voice commands from working with CC on a Mac.
Anyone got any tips? Tricks? Confirmation that this simply won't work on a Mac? (If the last, I'd love to know the "why" as well.)
Thanks!
Best,
Ian

Using Voice command to call some one...

Hello,
On the key note presentation in June the Steve Jobbs had done he used voice command to call a person.
How do you go about doing the set up for that. I can not seem to do it.
Sean

I could swear he did because he made a comment along the lines that "today's technology" ...
I could be wrong but I can not quote his comment but I know he made a comment about it before he did it.....
Oh well. One would think with the issue of driving and cell phone this would of been included.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Why can't you use the ellipsis 7 as a phone since verizon assigns it a phone number

Why can't you use the ellipsis 7 as a phone since Verizon does assign it a phone number.

The phone number is for the line of service only. There isn't a dialer application nor is there a CDMA radio in it for voice calls.

Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

3-D is very memory intensive.
System requirements | Photoshop
Mac OS
Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, or v10.9
2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
3.2 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit color and 512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)**
OpenGL 2.0–capable system
Internet connection and registration are necessary for required software activation, membership validation, and access to online services.*
** 3D features are disabled and some Mercury Graphics Engine enhanced features may not work with less than 512 MB VRAM. Read the Help article.
Bottom line, you don't have enough VRAM

Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating. There is no option found for using account credit.

I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In
