Macbook won't stop talking :(

[Chris Rogers]

For some reason my macbook suddenly speaks every action I do.

Furthermore, I am unable to use the function keys to adjust sound brightness etc.

I saw something around here a few days ago about it, what are the odds it would happen to me?

Help?

go to speech setting in general preferences and then open the universal access to change it

or press command funtion f5 as a key sequence to turn off

Turn off Voiceover in the Universal Access tab in System preferences.

You guys are awesome, my GF was just about to throw my MacBook out the window. She's pregnant so I guess she can get away with it
