Ah, perhaps that explains why when my sister calls me, (she is with AT) I hear her voice as an HD call: but, when I call her, (I’m with Verizon Wireless.) her voice does not come over as HD voice. Could that maybe be solved via the method you described? Sent from my Mac, The Only computer

Seems to me you might try it this way. If you have cellular service turned off for any apps, those apps WILL, NOT, be able to use data if you go outside of Wifi range. IF you turn cellular off all together, and have only Wifi calling inabled, you WILL, NOT, be able to make or receive

I believe it was I who guessed at the touch ID tripple press. From the look of their answer to you, Scot, seems like what they actually went for was pressing the command key plus the tripple press of touch ID. IN other words, you press and hold down the command key and while doing so, you

First, this isn’t personal to anyone. There’s a particular contact who’s information I no longer have and want to get rid of. Every time I look in my contacts on my Mac, there she is. She also shows up in my iPHone contacts. Pressing “edit” on neither my Mac nor iPhone does any good.

IF Apple is truly going for consistancy, I have a feeling I know how we will turn on Voice Over with the new touch bar. I don’t know this for sure: but, I’d be willing to guess that to turn on Voice Over, you simply touch or press the power button three times quickly if Voice Over is off. OF

Let me look and see a second. Found it I think. Here’s the path. Macintosh/System/Library/Speech/Voices and from that point on, each voice is assigned its own folder. So, I’m guessing that the male Siri voice would have this path: Macintosh/System/Library/Speech/Voices/Aaron folder. Sent
