Hi everybody. My apologies in advance if this has already been covered, but when doing a search I couldn't find any mention of it. I have been experiencing occasional speech stuttering on my Mac Book Air, and was wondering if anyone else is having this. I have a 13-inch machine and my sister has an 11-inch, and she hasn't been experiencing this at all. Tia for anyone's assistance.

Try changing the voice
Have you tried picking a different voice in VoiceOver Utility ¿
Software
Hi jake,
This is normally indicative of a software issue or memory problem. Check the activity monitor under utilities, and see what it looks like. Is anything draining your resources, or using excessive amounts of CPU/memory?
Also, which model of MacBook Air do you have; how much memory, etc?
HTH
Problem Fixed at Least for Now
Thanks for your responses. Last night I uninstalled all voices except Alex, whom it appears can't be removed. Then just this morning I tried going into Activity Monitor but nothing appears to be taking up extra memory. I have a 13-inch Mac Book Air, mid-2013 model.
I would also check what's
I would also check what's starting up and get rid of it.
Good luck.¬
I have been having same problem!
Hello, I have had the same problem over the past days. My mackbook air is 13 inch and I haven't had it but for perhaps 2 weeks. Only thing I can think of I downloaded was a face book ap. I have also tinkered in systems preferences, looking around not changing anything, those are the only 2 things I have done.
Found the Culprit, I Think
Well, I'm pretty sure I discovered the culprit about a week ago. I had installed Chromevox just to see what it was like but a life-skills tutor helped get rid of it. That seems to have freed up a good amount of memory here. I still have Google Chrome itself though, and it works great with VoiceOver. I haven't had any problems since uninstalling Chromevox so I think that might have done it.
