Hi Christine, The solution I think you're looking for is called macSpeech. It is made by Nuance, and you can find the Homepage here: http://www.nuance.com/for-individuals/by-product/dragon-for-mac/index.htm
Please bare in mind, that my comments are based on past enquiries to Nuance. That being said, I do not know if accessibility has improved recently.. The last time I saw an in-depth discussion on-list about this, I seem to remember that the initial training for the app was inaccessible. This training is important, as it allows MacSpeech to become accustomed to your voice, although it may be possible to bypass this and train as you go. >From a quick search in the App Store, it does not seem to be available there. >Also, I do not believe the company is willing to provide free trials, although >they did offer a money-back guarantee when i last enquired about purchasing. There may however be a cheaper solution lurking somewhere, as MacSpeech seems to be quite pricy if you only plan to use it until your arm gets better. I hope this helps TC :) James You can contact me in the following ways: E-Mail:james.aus...@mac-access.net MSN: james.londons...@gmail.com Skype: saulky1984 - if you'd like to share details, please let me know who you are when you send a request.
