Hi William,
They are charging by voice now. You can purchase credits which only cover one
voice, or multiple voices at once. The only difference being that Scandinavian
voices cost more in terms of credits. Obviously, if you already purchased a

Hi Josh
It's important to understand the differences in behaviour with the App Store.
So I will try to describe them here.
If you launch the App Store using the App Store menu option from the Apple
menu, then highlight the Updates radio button, you will receive third-party
updates only.
That's exactly what the recovery tool is for Sarah. It isn't necessary to
pre-format the drive as the partition is written block by block when you
attempt to write your boot device. Sean, Try the recovery tool and point it to
your flash card and see what happens. If the flash card isn't
Your current activation keys should count as Credits. That, William, is
exactly how they do it. They used to charge by language but now charge by
voice. For instance, if you like the Rachel voice, you just buy enough
credits to get that voice. If you like the Julie or Alice voices then you
do you have scripts on or off in the vo utilities? If off it is using the
system voice and you can change that via speech tab. I believe under text to
speech.
Take care.

Disk images are not compressed. If you need to prove that, have a look at the
size of the Lion disk image under contents/SharedSupport/ and then compare
that with the size of a DVD if you create one.

What operating system are you running? Lion or mountain lion. and do you get
any errors on the screen? I'd try waiting until all of your hard drives if
you do set up that way stop spinning. then don't touch any part of the
computer. Maybe something is preventing th emac from going to sleep.
go to devices after you plug your iOS device in then after getting th ecode
from the remote app tab twice, enter the code and hit enter. You will get no
feedback so just warning you. You will know if you did it right if your phone
says you did.

Am I correct in thinking that Lion let you re-install items previously
