Hello Sheree, I use Alex and Heather on my Mac. They are both globally available in the OS.
One has to purchase Heather. I am replying from my Windows 7 PC and cannot remember the name of the company that makes Heather. I don't believe either Alex or Heather is available on the iPad but I don't own an iPad so someone else will have to confirm that. Mark Cheree Heppe here: What voice are you using on your Mac and is this voice globally available on Apple devices? I am wondering whether that voice is available on an IPad? Thanks to you and others who take the time and have the expertise to make these instructive podcasts. Regards, Cheree Heppe ----- Original Message ----- From: M.

I first have to interact with the text block. Have you ever experienced this? In Leopard, the message block would read without issue, but since upgrading, this has not worked for me.
