I can restart speech when mine crashes by pressing VO-F5 4 times. However,
these are the crashes that leave no trace.
When VO crashes completely, it restarts itself and leaves a log entry.

Hi,
Don't worry about restarting VoiceOver manually, though. VoiceOver will

refers to your user directory repre

I'm hoping to produce a user guide for iWork09, but it all depends on time.
