Mojave not staying on my preferred voice after update

[Michael Marshall]

hey all,
am finding a shocking problem with voiceover when installing updates on Mojave.
i use the alex voice but every time i update, my voice options are lost and the 
system reverts back to the australian voice.
i have to then go and set all the different voice parameters such as attributes 
and typing back to alex.
all the pitch and speed settings are left alone.
it is extremely irritating.
has anyone else found this?

Bootcamp issue

[Bill Holton]

Hi.
I had to run the insider version of Windows to do an article, only now under 
bootcamp it starts up with an insider error.  It says it’s gathering 
information and will then restart, and then it sits there at 100%, and there 
seems to be no way to get it to proceede.  I tried MS Helpline, they tell me 
there is now no way to get to either Safemode or last known configuration 
without getting to the desktop.  This seems ridiculous to me.  There solution 
was to run Windows off a disk and hit repair.  Tried, unsuccessfully to explain 
to the rep that I could not do this from the mac side, and that if I can’t even 
reach the desktop, can’t do it from there, either.
Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Thanks.
Bill

 I’ve been using the “Classic View” but have changed that.  Thanks for the tip.

Subject: Native Mail Client Inexplicably Pops Out of Message List

I have a Mac Mini with Mojave MacOS, but the issue I’m addressing here was 
happening in previous versions of MacOS.

While reading an e-mail I often delete that message while in the message pane.  
Inexplicably, doing this quiet often kicks me out of the message list so I need 
to re-issue the ++ key sequence to re-enter the message 
list.

Does this happen to anybody else?

Can anything be done to eliminate this very annoying problem?

TIA

Re: internet accounts

Hi Lori , I have been experiencing the same problem in the last two days . 
I tried going to internet accounts also to no avail .After walking away and 
coming back in a few minutes it seemed to clear up by itself .It may be a 
problem on Yahoo's side .
