I thought the rumour was that apple were working towards having one operating system for all devices, so along the lines of what you have on your iPhone or iPad will also be the same os on your mac book eventually.
Can't see what the problems would be and everything would be constant -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ray Foret jr Sent: Saturday, 12 March 2016 8:38 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: could Siri's iPhone voices finally be coming to the Mac? Well, got news for yuh, Aaron is already on the iPHone. Under the default dialect, you’d click on what Apple calls the “male Siri” voice. Actually, that’s the newer Siri voice we got back with IOS8 but many of us thought it was strictly server side until a jail breaker discovered that in fact the voice was on the phone itself. It wasn’t until we got in to IOS9 that the Siri voices (the newer ones I mean) were made available for Voice Over. So, Looks like both you and I might have to spring for new Macs: that is, unless I really really want to try pushing this mid 2009 Mac book pro in to the realm of Foji. And you know what? I might just attempt it.
