Hi there,

Not sure if this is a Mac related question or if it is just a Firefox issue. Anyhow, I sat on my Mac keyboard by accident and managed to turn on some speech function on Firefox, with the result that the browser keeps telling me what I am doing... Can someone tell me how to turn this off?

Thanks!!!

Go to "System Preferences" > "Universal Access" (make sure you're on the "Seeing" tab)...then turn "Voice Over" to "Off".

That should do it.

HTH,

It's probably saying, "Please don't sit on me again!"
