This utility will assist in fixing profile creation issues.
A profile creation crash is potentially due to a corrupted installation of the Dictate Data files. This may have been caused by a faulty DVD or an issue that occurred during installation. The Dictate Data First Aid will identify which files, if any, have been corrupted. Once identified, Dictate Data First Aid will download an uncorrupted replacement file or files.

The following are the steps for using Dictate Data First Aid:

1. Download the compressed application from the url below
2. Unzip the application if your browser has not already done so for you
3. Please make sure that MacSpeech Dictate is not running
4. For proper use you must be connected to the internet when running Dictate Data First Aid
5. Launch the application named "Dictate Data First Aid"
6. Please click the button named Check Data
7. This will then check your Dictate Data folder for any corrupted files

At this point you will get a report of either corrupt files or the fact that you have no corruption.

If you have corrupt files, Dictate Data First Aid will inform you that you must be connected to the internet and that you should repair your data. Please click on the button marked Repair Data.

This will start a download from our server that will replace the corrupted files with new ones.

At no time is any information from your system sent to our servers. This process is just a request from Dictate Data First Aid for the uncorrupted files. Depending on the files the time to download will vary. Dictate Data First Aid will report how many files it needs to download in the bottom of the window. Dictate Data First Aid will report when it has finished with the message "Replacement of corrupted files is complete."

You may receive a message that there was an error during download. If you get this message then all you need to do is click the Check Data button again and repeat the Repair process.
