Re: Voice Updates in the mac App Store
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. Lisette On 25/10/2013, at 8:29 am, BBS wrote: > Hi Chris. Sounds like a restart is in order for you.

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
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.
