OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Removing Symbol Of Speech Recognition Program From Desktop?
Jun 24, 2012When I start parallels, the symbol of the voice recognition program appears on the desktop. I can't remove this symbol from the desktop. Doubleclick only moves the symbol from the desktop to the dock. I checked the system setup "speech" of my mac: "voice/speech recognition" and "voice over" are deactivated. So it seems that the setups of windows XP operating system and/or parallels (working tools) are causing this. How can I remove this symbol?

Software :: Speech Recognition Software For The Mac / IPad / IPhone
May 6, 2010About five years ago, before converting to Apple System OSX, I bought a copy of Dragon Naturally Speaking to run on Windows Xp. To cut a long story short, it never really worked properly as there were endless hardware and software conflicts that prevented any USB headset from working correctly with the Sony VAIO I had at the time. The worst of it was that the Program took too long to train and made too many mistakes even when it was supposedly 'trained'. I gave up on it. Having converted to the Mac in 2007, I am delighted with everything about the platform so thought that now might be the moment to take the plunge and buy a new Speech Recognition program.
I've had a look at MacSpeech Dictate and while it seems okay, the reviews are mixed. i also read that new and cheap applications are now available for both the IPhone and iPad. MacSpeech was also recently acquired by Nuance - who makes the Dragon Speech recognition engine. i hear that they're working on a new version of MacSpeech, that is more reliable. I would truly appreciate the knowledge and opinions of people on Appleinsider to help me find what i need. Many thanks in anticipation of some great responses.
Mac Pro :: MAC Pro Ram Recognition
Jun 23, 2009I purchased a Mac Pro two years ago and had additional ram installed at COMP USA (had an APPLE dealer in the store) The ram upgrade gave me a total of 9 gig. When I check (About This Mac) it confirms the 9 gig of ram. I was setting my preferences in Adobe CS 4 and when allocating the percent of ram to be dedicated to CS4 my choice was centered around 3 gig. Same as my Mac Book Pro. I elected 70% of 3 gig of ram.
Laptops :: Battery Recognition
Jan 19, 2011I recently spilled coffee on my mid 2010 2.4ghz macbook pro. After drying out, the computer worked fine, although the battery was not recognized. Since apple does not cover water damage i bought a replacement battery and installed it today. After starting up the problem is not solved. there is still an X through the battery indicator and if i unplug the laptop it shuts down instantly. When i turn it on, the status LED on the front blinks 6 times before the laptop actually boots up. I have reset the SMC, NVRAM and PRAM.
Any help or input would be greatly appreciated.

View 18 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Javascript Key Recognition
Oct 26, 2010I have a Javascript file that detects key codes, but it is set to react to Windows keyboard keys. How would I adapt it to work with a Mac keyboard? Code: // Hotkeys document.addEventListener('keydown', function(e){ if(e.shiftKey && !e.ctrlKey && e.altKey){ switch(e.keyCode){ // Edit styles with Alt+Shift+E case 69: editStyles(); break; // Unblock elements with Alt+Shift+U case 85: unblockEle(); break; // Block element with Alt+Shift+B case 66: blockEle(); break; // Unblock latest element with Alt+Shift+L case 76: unblockEle(true); break; // Block elements (don't use nth-child) with Alt+Shift+W case 87: blockEle(true); break; } } }, false); The Alt key is the problem. I guess the Alt/Option key on a Mac keyboard is not the same as the Alt key for Windows. What name would I give to have that key recognized?

Mar 13, 2009I'm on OS X 10.4.11 and speech recognition works wonderfully for about 10 minutes, and then it stops working for no apparent reason. The microphone window shows that it hears me, but doesn't recognize anything.
I go to Preferences, turn off speech recognition and within a few seconds it turns itself on again, but that doesn't solve the problem. Even a restart doesn't help.
What's going on here??
MacBook Pro :: Slot Stopped Mounting SD Cards - No Recognition
Mar 29, 2012I was just going between sd cards, trying to empty one out to use for something. Then, suddenly, it stopped mounting. None of the cards that previously mounted before suddenly stopped. As if the SD slot itself had been gone bye-bye. No recognition. SD cards are just fine. We have about dozen of them but it all mounts perfectly on other two macs. Obviously, it's my MBP's problem. I have rebooted two times, with no luck. I inserted them slowly and fast and anyway I could.
Here's more info from system information:
