Can I use PlainTalk Speech Recognition or Text-to-Speech software on my PowerBook?
DISCUSSION PlainTalk PlainTalk Speech Recognition will work with a PowerBook 3400, 5300, 2300 or G3 series computer if you install PlainTalk version 1.5 and the English Speech Recognition system extension version 1.5. Note: You can only use Speech Recognition with the built-in microphone of the PowerBook 5300 and 2300 series. The PowerBook 3400 can use either the built-in microphone or an external Apple PlainTalk microphone (M9060Z/A). Speech Recognition cannot be used with a PowerBook 2300 series computer in a Duo docking station because the dock does not support 16-bit sound. Follow these steps to install PlainTalk:
2. http://apple.com/macos/speech/ 3. Install PlainTalk 1.5 (English Speech Recognition and Text-to-Speech). Text-to-Speech Text-to-Speech is bundled with PowerBook 5300 series computers and is supported. Note: PlainTalk and Speech to Text updates can be downloaded from Apple Software Updates at: http://www.apple.com/swupdates . |
