Hi Paul! This is a late answer but yes my mac mini has stopped working since i tried to change voice to swedish Elin. First i thought it was Drive Genious which i have been testing for a while but now when i saw your message it seems the voices is the problem. So you’re not alone in this problem. You could go to assistiveware.com and make a support request and ask what is going on. When i have done that they’ve been very helpful to me. But first go and uncheck the Ivox voices in voiceover utility. /A > 19 dec. 2015 kl. 18:10 skrev Paul Hopewell <[email protected]>: > > Hello, > I am running Mac OS 10.11.2 and have been using the English UK Infovox ivox > voices for years without difficulty. > > However today I was prompted to update my 4 Infovox voices which I did and > which seemed to all work OK.
