Re: mac freezing

I had the same problem, especially when my Mac would wake up.  It turned out 
that we had added a defective memory stick.

Hello James,

This is probably just the same old weird untraceable bug in VoiceOver that's 
been around for a long time. I press Cmd-F5 four times and VoiceOver comes back.

If your Mac really is freezing, then this isn't happening to me.

Cheers,

Anne

Uh, Anne and James too, are you running Lion or SL?  I ask because ever since I 
installed Lion, I have yet to experience Voice Over going out on me.  Now, RS 
games audio has gone out on me; but, Voice Over, not even once at all so far.

Hi,

Yes, I just do the same as Anne expressed, pressing cmd-f5, wait a second, do 
it again and after repeating this 4 or 5 times, VO begins speaking again.  Your 
computer is not freezing at all.  Just for interest sake, in your Energy Saver 
Preferences in System Prefs, check the box that tells your Mac to restart if it 
freezes.  You'll know if it has frozen because it will restart itself.

Later…
