Q: Every time I try to use Enhanced Dictation it re-downloads it

I tried repairing permissions, but that didn’t help. I think it has downloaded and installed about 10x now. So that’s cool.

I found the answer to this problem.

 

  1. Go to ~/Library/Preferences ( ⇧+⌘+G )
  2. Locate com.apple.assistant.plist and move it to the Trash
  3. Open Dictation & Speech preference panel, disable dictation
  4. Reboot
  5. Re-enable Dictation & Speech.

    I am facing the exact same issue. I tried the above mentioned steps but it did not solve my problem.

     

    Before find this page I read somewhere to delete SpeechRecognitionCoreLanguages from /System/Library/Speech/Recognizers/ I did not find the specified folder but found some other folder which I deleted. Currently my Recognizers folder is empty.

    I have no com.apple.assistant.plist
