I have an iPad 3, with iOS 7.1.1 and Dragon 2.0.28 and a Macbook 2007 ,10.6.8 x, I cannot and do not want to update my MacBook.<br>
I have an Olympus program for Mac, that did not work for me, but I still have a Andrea ANTI-Noise NC-7100 USB set, that came with the Olympic - Mac program.<br>
I am german by birth, regardless that. I live in this country for over 50 years , the macbook app, from Olympus did not understand my accent.<br>
I intend to dictate a book, but my voice is starting to sound gravely. I had the good Fortune to use a Dragon program for Doktors , by accident. It worked very good with my voice .<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Eve:<br>
<br></div><div>Thanks for writing. If your dictation needs are met through Dragon 2.0.28 with your iPad 3, or through Dragon Dictate Medical with your MacBook, congratulations!<br><br></div><div>If not yet, you may wish to consider the following options:<br>
<br></div><div>(1) As you stay with the 2007 MacBook, you can upgrade its Operating System to 10.7 (Lion) or higher, depending your specific model, so that you can use Nuance Dragon Dictate 3, which is still widely available, or the new Dragon Dictate 4.<br>
<br></div><div>(2) If your MacBook is capable of running OS 10.8 (Mountain Lion) or 10.9 (Mavericks), you can try to use the respective native dictation feature. Here is a Macworld article about the Mavericks built-in dictation tool:<br>

<br></div><div>(3) If you prefer to stay with OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) on your MacBook, you can try to find a copy of Dragon Dictate 2.0/2.5, which is by now rare, but shows up on eBay occasionally.<br><br></div><div>(4) If you happen to own, or have access to, a Windows computer, you can then use one of Nuance's other dictation programs.<br>
