Question, Does your iMac give the start up tones when you turn it on?
Answr if no start up tones you wont get voiceover talking to you during the installation, So turn the machine off completely then do a PRAM reset, That's hold down the keys command, option letter R and the letter p then while holding those keys down power on the machine Once you hear the start up tones twice you can let the keys go and then shut down your machine and start the installation from scratch, I've had this happen a number of times to me at work. Voice over should now work for you. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nickus de Vos Sent: Sunday, 25 June 2017 11:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Installer not talking on my iMac Hi all I had to format and install a clean copy of Sierra for a friend over the weekend and thought while I have the installer on a USB flash drive I might as well do my iMac as well, since I’ve been wanting to do a clean install for a while. Everything worked as expected on my friends MBP and I did the clean install for him, Voiceover talked me through the entire process as expected. However this morning when I wanted to do my iMac, Voiceover simply didn’t want to start during the installation process no matter what I tried. For reference I then inserted the USB drive with the installer in to my Macbook Pro and booted in to it and Voiceover started just fine, but nothing happens on my iMac. Anyone had this happen to them before, any ideas or solutions? My iMac is a late 2013 model running Sierra, my friends MBP which Voiceover worked on during installation is a mid 2012 and my MBP is a mid 2015 Retina. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
