I want to change my Language and Speech options on
my Pocket PC CoPilot, but the buttons are grayed out.
Note - This has been fixed in the latest
patch for Copilot Pocket PC 6. Please click
here for the update and then follow these
directions.
Currently Copilot can only switch between the Male and Female
Pre-Recorded files and not the Text-to-Speech files. You will only have
the option to switch between pre-recorded files if you have NOT installed
the Text-to-Speech files.
If you would like to switch to the Pre-Recorded
speech files, please follow the steps below:
-
Uninstall Text-to-Speech
1. On the Pocket PC, click on Start->Settings->System Tab->Remove
Programs
2. Locate "Pocket Speech" and select "Remove"
3. After it has been removed, perform a soft reset.
4. The next time you open CoPilot it will default to the Male Pre-Recorded
files and you will have the option to change the Language and Speech
options.
If you would like to switch back to the Text-to-Speech
files, please follow the directions below:
