Agh, my Mac is talking to me like Stephen Hawking!

[franch]

It's reading out all the titles of my emails and stuff! How did this happen and how do I stop it? There's also a weird black border which has suddenly started appearing around random things, whatever software I'm using. Help!

Ahhhhh, sorted. God knows how that happened. Was in danger of going bonkers.

DH says it is the disabled settings that have been turned on.

Go into System Preferences and then universal access and then change the settings in there. Apple Key and F5 also turns it off.

Aw Bagpuss, many thanks to your DH

stephen hawking does that alot, known for hacking into computers when bored with space time contiunium..

go to system preferences, universal access, its probably been switched on by apple function key 5, and switch it off...

That's OK. DH has just been giving me a tutorial. I see what you mean about Stephen Hawking .

machines that communicate are freaky

DH had a loan car last week (Daihatsu? ahirdryewr on wheels thing) that greeted him and bade him goodby each time- euch!

Thanks suzy

Oh! Sorry!

Can you email me again Franch?
