Re: Voice Updates in the mac App Store

2013-10-24 Thread Lisette Wesseling
Hi folks,
Is anybody having an error message when trying to download a voice which says 
“voices cannot be downloaded at this time, try again later”.
I’ve had this for about a day now which seems a little long for a server error.
Thanks.

Hi Chris. Sounds like a restart is in order for you. I ran into the same 
problem as you did and I found that a simple reboot did the trick. Hope that 
solves your problem, and talking about Daniel, I wasn’t impressed with his HQ 
voice sample. It sounds like he made him more robotic than ever.

Re: Voice Updates in the mac App Store

2013-10-24 Thread Chris Moore
Has anyone had problems with the new Daniel voice? After my Mac reporting that 
version 3.5 of the voice was available, I installed.  nOW Daniel is silent.  I 
tried unchecking the voice in Voice over utility in the hope it would uninstall 
in case it was corrupt.  No joy there, so I went into the system folder and 
removed the Daniel voice (and most of the old novelty voices too).  I then went 
back into the VO utility and selected Daniel again.  The voice started 
downloading.  

Still no success though, as every time  I try to select the voice or even 
preview the voice, there is no sound.  I am back to using Alex, but I must 
admit I quite like the two new American female voices also.

I took a look at Oliver, the new British male voice, but was not impressed.
.  Has Tom gone?

I hope someone can suggest a solution to my Daniel problem.

I will fire off an email to Apple.

Thanks 

Chris
