go to voiceover utility (VO-F8) then in the general pane, it should say, display voiceover welcome. ensure it's checked. then close voiceover utility. test it by logging out and then back in again. lew On 4 Dec 2011, at 20:35, Matthew Chao wrote: Hi, Folks. My MacBook Pro no longer gives me

sometimes, voiceover bypasses the announcement. I choose to disable it so that it doesn't interupt any possible errors that might occur, as well as quick access to data I need. so less tax on my brain lol. lew On 4 Dec 2011, at 22:01, Sarah Alawami wrote: yeah in my case there is. it's that
