Hello friends, once again, can you help me please?
I currently have a narrow black rectangular text box, across the bottom left of my screen, above the icons list, e.g. Finder. I just don't know how to get rid of this annoying feature. As I'm typing, what I'm typing, shows up in that box, one word at a time.
Also, my caps lock button isn't working, so I wasn't able to login to a website this morning. I would be grateful if you could help me with this please.
When I turned on my Mac this morning, something called voice control was on! Absolutely annoying! Every button I pressed, was a mentioned, as well as all the words, after they had been typed in! Thankfully, my son helped me get the voice control turned off, using system preferences. He's not an Apple user, he used Google on his mobile phone, to figure it out. This black box business, I simply don't understand. I'm not that intelligent.
How this came about, was, my daughter-in-law, was using my Mac for something. She also had her baby daughter in her arms, therefore some buttons were pressed, I don't know which ones.
As for myself, I never press any buttons on this keyboard, that I don't recognise - I don't want to break anything!
Thank you, Frank.
