Someone *please* help me

Post » Thu Aug 20, 2009 7:11 pm

Ok, so I was installing daggerfall on my Mac, used boxer and all that stuff, anyway, I got to the point where I had to "add my bonus skills!" or something in the character creation thing, and I couldn't figure out how to make that work. So, like all smart people, I started hitting random keys on my keyboard to see if something would work. I don't know what I did, but all of the sudden everything my cursor touches, it's outlined in black, and my mac STARTS TALKING TO ME. If I hover over a folder and click on it, it states the name of the folder. As I type this, I hear the letters coming through the speakers, it even says "space" when I hit space. Jesus Christ.
And I can't figure out how to make it stop. I looked ALL through the settings, and nothing talks about that. I'm probably just overlooking it, but does anyone know how to make this stop..? I google searched it, but to no avail. I just want it to stop..please..dear god..help..

Ahaha. Sounds like you've activated some kind of text-to-speech for blind people feature. Google search it on Macs.
