Jane and all,

Closing the applications folder before you unboot the Mac will result in no speaking of that folder when you boot. Not sure of the rest but think it's got to do with the fact that the app is not totally gone when vo starts so you hear it as it finishes. Another example of something like this is the speech recognition engine. When we use it, we hear system has a new window and other things a lot as the window opens and closes and as it spawns other windows to carry out commands.

I just did a restart to see exactly wwhat happens when the app for date/time is run.

The computer runs the app in the system voice, then the login greeting of "Welcome to VoiceOver. Macintosh is running." Then VoiceOver says "say date and ti" then it says "Applications" and "0sex" the first folder in Applications. How do I get it to stop saying all of that past the login greeting? Well I don't mind it saying Applications, but the rest I don't need.
