Why is my mac talking to me???

[elfin]

Telling me which page I am on and which letter I am typing?? How do I turn this off?? Have prowled around system prefs and cannot find the solution.

It seems to think I am blind. Where is that control?

1. Back on again - the Bluetooth turnoff only "worked" because I

had the irritating volume turned way down. This is very annoying.

2. Try looking in

System preferences > Universal access

3. Try going to System Preferences > Universal Access

and turn off VoiceOver.

4. Thanks - I was going nuts

Don't know what triggered it - last I was doing was listening to Thom Hartmann when it kicked on.

This solved it - saved voice mail hell to apple pro --

5. Now you know how to drive your Mac using friends bonkers.

There are options there that you might find fun.

Try the White on Black option.
