Hello. I have another question about an iBook. Last week, there was an iBook mentioned on this list called Mastering the Mac with Voiceover. I searched for this, and can’t find it. Does anybody know if it is still available? Thanks. Lucy Edmonds

That would include the nuance voices, and the Alex voice, which come with your device. I think you can also purchase voices for the Mac to be used with voiceover from a company called sepstrel. I'm dictating this message, so that is probably spelled wrong, but I don't know how to spell it. You can buy those voices, use them with voiceover, and thus with iBooks on the Mac. But on an iPhone or iPad, you cannot use, for example, voices that you purchased to go along with voice dream reader, as those voices do not work as voiceover voices. So the key is, if it works as a voice over voice, you can use it. If not, you cannot use it.

It seems that you can read books either in audio format or by having Voiceover read the text of a book, although each book may not offer both options. My question is what voice or voices can be used to listen to the text of an i Book? Is it only the voice that comes with turning on Voiceover on your Apple device? If you can purchase other voices, where do you go to purchase these voices, how are they downloaded and how to you select another voice rather than the Voiceover voice which comes with the Apple devices?
