I downloaded the Samantha (same as Siri) voice just for fun.  I don't use voice over, and I was just using it for fun.  Now I realize it was almost half a gig of hard drive space.  Oops.  Is there any way for me to delete this new voice on my Mac?

OS X Yosemite :: Why Hearing Loud Foreign Voice Periodically On IMac

Dec 9, 2014

Very infrequently a loud foreign voice will be heard on my iMac speaker system.  I havent been able to really document it properly as it doesnt last that long and as indicated very infrequent--I believe I have only heard it twice, maybe 3 times in the last month.

It would appear to be within the computer system and not from any local transmissions.  It seems to only last 5 or 10 seconds if I recall correctly.

I am concerned that it may be some type of hacking or something that has been put on/in the iMac.  I believe it occurred while using Firefox.

Info:
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10), Lacie 500 GB HD

IMac (Intel) :: No Apple Logo Appears During Startup

Aug 28, 2014

I am fixing this 2007 iMac for free for an autistic child. Apparently, changing computers for someone that is autistic isn't ideal. I don't have the history with this iMac, just that it isn't working. They supposedly did have the hard drive replaced? It sounds like a dvd is inside it when it starts up, could be the installation dvd?Either way, I have not seen it before where the Apple logo refuses to show on the start up screen. It just stays gray.  

1. I've tried zapping the PRAM. Didn't have any changes. 

2. I tried starting up in safe mode, but getting passed the apple logo is required for that 

3. I tried single user mode, but getting passed the apple logo is required for that 

4. I tried holding the c key to start up off of the dvd, nothing happens 

5. I tried holding the mouse button (and cmd, opt, f, o) to manually eject the dvd during start-up. 

Info:
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

IMac Intel :: Lacie External Hard Drive Doesn't Show Up - Sporadically Appears In Disk

Feb 19, 2009

Odd stufff, I have a 500 gig Lacie ext HD that my user uses on her Vista machine...

I am setting up a replacement for the Vi$ta machine, which is a 24 inch imac.

I plugged in the ext HD and nothing happened after I powered on the ext HD.

I checked disk utility and it showed up but as a 2TB size ext HD...

I unplugged the Lacie and plugged it back in and all the info showed up correctly.

But ALL the buttons under "First Aid" are greyed out so I cant verify permissions, disk, or repair disk or permissions.

imac 24 inch
Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Applications :: Looking For Voice Changer?

May 5, 2009

I'm looking for a voice changer, price really isn't an issue, but free/cheap would be preferred. I'm looking for a program that COMPLETELY changes the voice, not just add effects like Garage Band does. I did download the demo of Voice Candy, but none of those voices sound human.

So any idea what to get?

I'm not sure how it got turned on in the first place, but the voice over feature on my iMac is driving me crazy! It says something everytime I click something on my computer Here are the things I've tried:

Applications :: Cannot Voice Chat With MS Messenger 8.0?

Jan 11, 2011

I installed MS messenger 8.0 on my MacBook and the only problem so far is audio.

When I make a call to one of my contact's computer using my internal microphone and internal speakers everything is fine.

If I switch to my bluetooth headset in System Preferences and retry the call I can not hear them and they can not hear me.

Using the bluetooth headset for Skype calls works fine.

Is this a messenger issue or ??????
