Hi Cheryl, I haven't experienced this myself, but I think I may understand what they mean. Basically, reading any app with Voiceover is fine. The problem must be when other apps try to speak using the system voice. Visiovoice was just their example of the kind of app they were warning against. Some other examples would be the speech output for Growl, or setting up certain apps like adium, Messages/iChat, or Skype to automatically speak events. Another example is apps that are self-voicing such as the RS Games client. Also, If you configure the Mac in system preferences to automatically speak the time or to speak alerts after a delay. Basically, anything else that tries to use the voice on it's own while voiceover is running will apparently cause that problem with the demo.
I hope this explanation makes sense. On Nov 7, 2012, at 9:55 PM, Cheryl Homiak <[email protected]> wrote: > I got this too and i wrote back and told them that didn't make sense.
