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

Are the new voices only for 10.9 or can they be used with ML? If yes how do
you get to them?

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.

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.
