Section A - Install the Server. Then follow these instructions, depending on the operating system of the computer:. Sign in as an Administrator on the computer.

However, there were absolutely no problems with Fluenz receiving any audio input. Too bad. Rosetta actually worked wonders - when it worked. User profile for user: EmperorPratt EmperorPratt. As it turns out, when you set the microphone preference to 'Internal Microphone,' Rosetta Stone takes it upon itself to change the input volume as it pleases--usually to full.

This is bad because the computer will hear a pounding, garbled, static-filled mess instead of the simple word you think you're saying. I don't remember how I got to it, but somewhere in Rosetta's preferences you can listen to how you sound and visually compare your sound wave to the correct answer so as to tweak your intonation and articulation , and this is where I discovered the problem. The solution: open System Preferences, go to "Sound," select the "Input" tab, and then set the "Input Volume" to the halfway mark.

The computer will hear you much more clearly, and you should do fine on your lessons. It's frustrating to have to keep on adjusting the volume while you're trying to concentrate, I know, but at least it gets to the heart of the issue. Perhaps there's a script floating around that can take care of this, but my admittedly limited searches have turned up nothing. Such as it is, I hope this helps!

Rosetta stone 3. I used to be able to use speech with either the built in mic or headset mic, and now can't. This is frustrating.

I have no idea why!! I'm happy that's it's working but given the cost, RS should really have made sure this was all working perfectly straight out of the box.

Thanks for the advice! User profile for user: Edd Cox Edd Cox. User profile for user: mkolegue mkolegue. Is this because you are trying to use the headset? Does anyone have another suggestion besides the constant lowering of volume if you are not using a headset? I tried it and it is not going very smoothly.
