Just in case you are lost, like I was searching for the Captivate 7 voices for Mac, here is the link: http://prodesigntools.com/go/Cp7_mac_voices_installer

Installation was easy and straightforward.

Good luck!

Hello!

Run the Captivate_7_x64_Neo_Content_LS21.exe with Run as Admin.

It will install Neo speech voices.

Make sure that you have closed captivate while installing them.

Thanks

Will neospeech work the same (enter them same way) in Captivate 7? Are there any other text to speech voices you recommend?

Hi doralsuncoast

Captivate 7 works the same way. However, if you are on 64-bit system and use NeoSpeech user dictionary, you should be aware of one bug.

When you run UserDicEng_<VoiceArtist>, it crashes with an error message. The workaround for that can be found in:

To the best of my knowledge, Captivate 7 doesn't support any other voices other than NeoSpeech.

I haven't used Captivate 7. But this solutions works with Captivate 6, so it may be worth trying.

If you are seeing the VT folder in your Captivate installation directory (under Program Files),

Rename the preferences folder, "Captivate 6.0" as "Captivate 6.0_1234" in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe.
Run Adobe Captivate as an administrator and you should see NeoSpeech voices in the list.

If you don't have the VT folder, restart your computer and install the NeoSpeech again. This solves the problem sometimes.
