I've always used the default voice Alex, and only started seeing this with 
Mavericks.

Re: waking up macbook pro

2014-05-19 Thread Thuy Mallalieu
I've been finding this issues waking up my macbook air running mavericks, but I 
thought it was because the battery was dropping to below 15 or 20 percent. Now 
I'm wondering if it is a problem with voiceover depending on which voice is 
being used. I have been using acapella and tried changing my default voice to 
Alex, and haven't experienced this sluggishness since. Hope it works for you 
all too?
Cheers
Thuy

I've been seeing this with my Mac Mini too. I thought it was in conflict with 
time Machine or something. I have seen more sluggishness lately with Mavericks. 
Mountain Lion was much more snappy in my opinion.

This is also true on an iMac running Mavericks.  I can press any key to wake up 
the computer, but VoiceOver has a long delay before it wakes.

Yes I also experience this on a MacBook Air running Mavericks.  I have
not found a solution so far.

Hi,

 

It appears to be an activation of VoiceOver kind of problem.  The
computer is actually functioning properly, VO is just not ready to speak
to you.  So, if your Mac requires you to enter your password, just go
ahead and enter it.  If you're wanting to start a specific app, you can
still press VO-d to go to the Desktop and press the first couple letters
of the Dock shortcut and press return to open it.  Usually, somewhere in
that process, VO will start announcing what you're doing.  It's kind of
a pain but, you are correct in that it is a Mavericks thing.

 

Later...

Does anybody else have this sluggish problem?
