When I open up a browser I get an automated voice telling me what website I opened. I want to shut down that feature without shutting down the sound I need for other watching TV or YouTube
When I have multiple windows I will click on a site and an computerized voice will tell me what the website is. It is as if everything I am doing is getting a voice over from Firefox. I want to disable that aspect without it causing any problems when I actually do need sound like watching shows on TV. Everytime I put the cursor on anything it will tell me what I am doing which I don't need.
Chosen solution
Hi elamothe! It sounds like you just have VoiceOver turned on for your Mac. You can find VoiceOver by going to System Preferences->Universal Access->Seeing on your Mac, not in Firefox. This will allow you to disable VoiceOver.
CMD + F5 will toggle the setting as well.
Hopefully this helps!

Choose Universal Access under System Preferences and click the Seeing tab and click OFF to Voice over.
