I have 2 computers that I use DD 3.0.4 on. The first is as follows:</div><div><br></div><div>Mid-2012 MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB Crucial M4 SSD, Buddy 6G USB Pod, Sennheiser MD431 II, OS X (10.8.5), Dragon Dictate 3.0.4, 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate under Parallels 8, DNS Pro 12.5.</div><div><br></div><div>I have no stability problems under this configuration.</div><div><br></div><div>My other computer is as follows:</div><div><br></div><div>Late-2013 27 inch iMac, 3.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, 24 GB RAM, 128 GB Apple SSD, Andra USB sound Pod, Sennheiser EW 122 G2 Wireless Microphone System, OS X (10.9.1), Dragon Dictate 3.0.4.</div><div><br></div><div>As you can see the second computer has plenty of
everything to run DD 3.0.4. Unfortunately, DD 3.0.4 freezes when I do certain things. There is a post on the Nuance forum from an experienced user that identifies many of the situations where DD 3.0.4 freezes.</div><div><br></div><div>So DD 3.0.4 does not "crash" on Mavericks for me. It does however freeze way too often on Mavericks. When this happens I have to get someone to come and do a force quit for me.</div><div><br></div><div>I have upgraded the Mavericks computer to version 10.9.2 but I haven't retested DD to see if it still freezes. Unfortunately, I'm too reliant on DD to have a freezing problem with DD. Until Nuance fixes the incompatibility with Mavericks, I'm forced to stay on Mountain Lion.</div></div></body></html>
