DuoTyping needs it to read the text you select, put your fix back and show marks as you type.

Turn it on ​

  1. Press ⌃⇧⌘D, or choose Finish setup from DuoTyping in the menu bar.
  2. On the Accessibility page, choose Grant Access….
  3. Turn on DuoTyping in System Settings › Privacy & Security › Accessibility. Setup says Access is on.
Privacy & Security › Accessibility, with DuoTyping on.

Switched on, but nothing happens ​

Try these in order:

  1. Reopen System Settings › Privacy & Security › Accessibility.
  2. Drag DuoTyping’s icon into the list.
  3. Turn DuoTyping off and on again.
  4. Quit DuoTyping and open it again.

Without Accessibility ​

Write still works: paste your text there to check it.

For Translate or Pronounce, right-click the text you select and choose Services › Translate with DuoTyping or Pronounce with DuoTyping. Nothing is put back, so Copy the translation.
