I'm not sure why, but I've also noticed that some times the welcome message
is not spoken. Everything works fine though, so I haven't thought about it
much. I've never had my mac on at 3 in the morning, so I guess those scripts
have never run, just curious, what do those do? I haven't had any problems
though.

nothing bad will happen to your Mac if the scripts don't run. I too have
the issue of not hearing the welcome message.

HI again all.
Just wondering if anyone else has come across this issue?
Sometimes when I turn on my mac and let it start up, I don't hear the
welcome to mackintosh message sometimes when I boot up the mac.
Normally my mac boots to the desktop and most times it says welcome to
mackintosh voice over is running finder macintosh hd.
Is there a reason why sometimes the mac boots and nothing is spoken? Then
when I use the arrow keys everything speaks fine?
I've run repair disk permissions in disk utilities.
One other question, is there a way of changing the maintenance scripts
that
run at 3 am to another time?
I don't like leaving my mac on all night and i'm wondering if there's a
way
of telling the scripts to either run manually or run at a time when i'm
awake?
I'm concerned if these scripts don't run, something bad may happen to my
mac.
