It looks like I spoke too soon about my restored voices. It appears that there is a problem with all of the Ivona voices. I have a few of them. And every time I try to read a book with an Ivona voice, voice dream crashes immediately. There is some kind of new addition to the ivona a copyright agreement. I was able to except that by pretending I was going to buy another voice which I didn't want. But I did except the agreement. Having done that, I tried using one of my voices. No joy. I uninstalled all of those voices. I reinstalled one. I restarted the phone. Still no joy. It is apparent that until something happens on Winston's and, if you have to put voice dream on a new machine and you have ivona voices, you are going to be SOL. I did try reading with a different voice from a different manufacturer, and a red fine. So I know the problem is specifically with voices from ivona. Mary
