Hi Bill,

Have you tried using Voice Dictation in El Capitan? 
Dictation & Speech pane in System Preferences, select the Dictation tab.
Turn on Dictation
OS X El Capitan: Dictate your messages and documents


Cheers,
Ronni

Ronni,

I did try this but found it producing more errors than my own typing!  After 
Dragon its too slow, so I think I will invest in the the version of Dragon that 
works with 10.10.1

Voice to Text software

[Bill Parker]

I used to own Dragon Speak v3 (I think) now long out of date and deleted and 
did not work on later Mac OS versions ( I have El Capitan).

I have devoted a number of hours rtying source something like Dragon, but not 
sure which version to buy ( simple stuff only - I speak, it types after I have 
trained it)  so bells and whistles free.  Is Dragon ( or rather Nuance) the 
only one?  Its hard to believe.

Any recommendations welcome.  Happy to buy s/h  if its OK for 10.0.1 and it 
will transfer.

Voice to text software

[Frank]

Hi
I am disabled with osteoarthritis which makes my typing slow and erratic.
Does anyone have experience of voice to text software and what is the best?

I am also a freelance journalist so typing is imprtant to me

Regards

Frank
