How can I get iPad to read to me

I am trying to get my iPad to read to me how do I do it

First go to settings> general>accessibility> speak selection> on.
To make it speak highlight the passage like you do when you copy and paste a sentence, then tap speak.
If you want your iPad to read a book to you it's best to get an audio book.

  • I have iphoto '08 version with an imac osx 10.5.8. It will not read my RAW files  from my Nikon D800 - a very new model.How can I get it to read my RAW files?

    my somewhat old imac osx 10.5.8 with iphoto '08 will not read my RAW files from my new Nikon D800 camera - a new model on the market( 5 months or so). How can I get iphoto to read my RAW  files?

    iPhoto 08 would not read RAW files from that new a camera. You need to upgrade so you can get more up-to-date version of OS X and iPhoto. Another possiblity is see if iPhoto 11 will run on 10.5.8, if so you should update. You can also attempt to run Software Update and see if it finds a newer release of iPhoto 08 that supports newer RAW formats.

  • How can i get out the reading list???

    how can i get out the reading list?

    This really needs to be posted in the Safari forum but I will answer it here.
    What do you mean by get out? You want to see the list? Clicking on the pair of glasses controls the display of the list. The glasses are in the gray bookmark bar. Click once to open and click again to close the reading list.

    How can I get VoiceOver to read two languages correctly? in a dual-language book (English and Spanish)? I've used the <lang> tag, but VoiceOver doesn't switch from reading in English to Spanish. Both languages are selected in Settings. Does VoiceOver have this capability?

  • My MacBook Pro doesn't accept CDs or DVDs anymore, but it did when I bought it 2 years ago. How can I get it to read disks again?

    My MacBook Pro doesn't accept CDs or DVDs anymore, but it did when I bought it 2 years ago. How can I get it to read disks again?
    My quess is that the new software just doesn't allow the disk drive to work. I would love an explanation why this doesn't work and some help getting it to work. It's really frustrating because I get a bunch of CDs from work and never get to listen to them on my MacBook.

    Make sure the discs are free of finger prints. The optical drive cannot read a disc with smudges and dust.
    Check Finder > Preferences > General
    Make sure:  CDs, DVDs, and iPods, is selected.

  • How can i get iPad calendar/contacts style for my iMac (lion)?

    how can i get my iMac (10.7.4) to use the VERY HANDY, MUCH FASTER iPad style calendar & contacts views?
    iPad3/new iPad - date bar w/ months & arrows at the bottom, day-week-month-year- & LIST option at top - THIS IS QUICK!!!
    iMac -sloowwww flip a month - OR click to view months -  click here to view date.....  even adding a month bar to quick click at top would be faster.
    it's also like this w/ contacts -
    iPad3/new iPad- QUICK alpha tabs on side that show name on left w/ info on right w/ QUICK contact options to message, FT, share. 
    iMac contacts - groups/or all - scroll to find/click names or search - no quick contact tabs like the iPad.
    Does anyone know how to incorporate the FAST features of the iPad3/new iPad to my iMac?
    Lack of these options must be an oversite and hopefully an update will soon be comming out implement these quick features across the board on all apple devices?!?!  Until then - any ideas?
    Quick, userfriendly... we all want that!

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • HT1296 How can I get ipad restored after installing ios7?

    I recently went to itunes to update my ipad to ios7.  Upon doing so, itunes promped me to save the content on my ipad to my computer, which I did.  The update was successful, but now I can't get the content back to my ipad.  Does anyone know how to do this?  I try and the ipad says it is restoring ipad, but then goes back the the "Hello" status.

  • How do i get ipad to read usb device?

    i just bought my ipad. how do i get it to see a flash drive inthe usb port?

    It's not officially supported, and you won't be able to copy any content back to the flash drive from the iPad, but there is this post which describes a work-around (and I haven't tried it) : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3422226 . And if you are using a flash drive then generally they won't work with the camera connection kit - most of them need more power that is supplied to the iPad's port, so you'd probably be better off with a SD card if you really need to copy them on that way.
    There are a number of apps that support Dropbox, transfer from your computer via wifi, or you could use email attachments - are they options that you could use instead of connecting a flash drive ?

  • How can i get itunes to read my CDs again

    I cannot get iTunes to read my CDs. It keeps telling me to reinstall iTunes, and I did, but it still will not read my CDs

    Hey there wesley254,
    It sounds like your audio cds are not being seen in iTunes when you insert them into your drive. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article about that very subject:
    iTunes for Windows doesn't recognize my audio CDs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1584
    Verify Windows recognizes your optical drive
    If Microsoft Windows recognized your optical drive, but doesn't recognize it now, follow the instructions in iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install.
    Check for software updates
    Microsoft or your computer's manufacturer may have released updated software. Check to see if there are updates to Windows or to the software that controls the drive. Check your computer manufacturer's website for updates, particularly for updates to the CD or DVD drive. If you bought the drive separately from the computer, check the drive manufacturer's website. In some cases, software drivers for other devices (such as video and sound cards) could affect how the CD or DVD drive works. Make sure your video and sound cards have the most current drivers.
    Check for firmware updates
    From time to time manufacturers publish updates to a CD or DVD drive's internal software (known as firmware). Check your computer manufacturer's website for firmware updates first. This is important because the internal drives used by some companies (including Dell) require special firmware. If an update is not available from the computer manufacturer, check with the company that made the drive. In some cases, firmware for other devices (such as video and sound cards) could affect how the CD or DVD drive works. Make sure your video and sound cards have the latest firmware as well.
    Important: Use special care when installing firmware updates. Incorrectly installing a firmware update could damage the drive and make it unusable. Always check with the computer manufacturer first before checking with the drive manufacturer.
    Additional steps
    If you have more than one optical drive, try using iTunes with each drive.
    Burner software conflicts
    If iTunes had previously been working and you recently installed some software that also includes CD burning capabilities (including Napster, Audible, or other online music store software), you may need to do a Repair installation of iTunes.
    If iTunes still does not recognize audio CDs after you try these steps, it is possible that third-party software has installed device filters on your computer that are contributing to this issue. Learn more about device filters and how to resolve issues they cause.
    To assist Apple in identifying affected drives, please provide feedback by running CD Diagnostics in iTunes

  • How can i get Mac to read a certain type of file?

    i will cut to the chase
    i have some files from a voice recorder on a WINDOWS pc
    i stick a 512 mb flash drive in the windows pc's usb slot
    now i got the files on the flash drive
    i stick the flash drive into the Mac Minis Usb slot
    it shows the files but cannot play them
    How can i convert what is in the Flash drive to a Macintosh playable file
    AND should i do it while the flash drive is in the Windows or the Mac mini computer
    Side note: the software for the voice recorder is windows only
    the website for the PC Recorder(sony) does not have Mac Software on it
    so i want (hope / need) to go voice recorder->windows pc->Flash drive->Mac and then convert the file so Mac can read/ play it.
    thanks in advance

    CoffeehouseSchmuck,
    The simplest way is to use Switch/Swift Sound (if their site is up) or acWAVE(commercial software with a 7-day trial) - in Windows to convert the DVF files to mp3 or some other Mac-friendly format.

  • I have not deleted ANY texts since I got my phone and Ihave not synched.  I just can't scroll back in a thread to older texts.  How can I get back to read those?

    I have not deleted ANY texts since i got my phone 10 weeks ago.   Nor have I syched.  How can I go back to earlier texts in a thread to see them again?

    I've found that the easiest way to view old texts is by archiving them to my computer using a program such as PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac or PC). I generally save important threads to a .pdf for future reference.

  • How can I get the Adobe Reader download to accept that I have deleted Adobe 7.0?

    Whenever I try to install an upgrade I get a message saying Adobe 7.0 is using the files please delete and try again.   But I have deleted the files and I can't read PDF forms now.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Assuming you mean Adobe Reader, you may want to try the following.
    Remove all traces of Reader (not only the program) from your system using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. This is no longer supported by Microsoft because it can produce problems with Win 7, but you can still download it from from places like
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    Then, download the Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and perform a clean install.

  • How can I get the adobe reader app on my iPad to accept my login info?

    I can login to adobe with my computer, and Safari on my iPad, but when I try to login with the adobe reader app on my iPad, I get an incorrect user ID or password message.

    Try logging on to https://exportpdf.adobe.com/. See if it asks for date of birth, if so, fill it in. For some people (bizarrely) this fixes it.

  • Newbe Apple user here.  After upgrade to iOS 5.0.1, apps backed up on my Desktop computer are not appearing back on my iPAD.  How can I get IPAD to get all my from computer?

    I managed to sync my iPAD to my home computer, update everything and backed it all up (or so I thought).
    However, after finishing the iOS upgarde from 4.3 to 5.0.1, most of my apps and tools, all my books and manuals and games  - everyting I purchased and most of what was free, is missing from the iPad.    I can still see it on my home computer.  
    Is there such a thing as a reverse sync where you get your stuff from your computer back on the iPAD, and can someone please point me to some information on this process, or even just give some basic steps? 
    I am not a savy apple user, and appreciate your help.
    Thank you kindly,

  • My test instrument is outputting a 5 line string but labview only read until the carriage return. how can I get it to read the whole string?

    I have a labview sub-VI reading the string being outputted by a pH meter.  The meter outputs a 5 line string and labview is only reading up to each lines carriage return, there-by giving me 5 separate strings is there anyway to rectify this and have the 5 line read as one string?

    Labview 2010

    Yes, LabVIEW will automatically update. What happens is that the old serial functions still exist in 7.1 and above but the code (the block diagram) has been modified to use VISA functions. Older versions of LabVIEW are fully supported in this manner. The only way you can avoid the automatic update is to have the old serial functions in an llb and your top level VI refer to these. Having any VI that was part of vi.lib in an llb is a very bad idea and the way to fix things is to remove any VIs in the llb that are part of the LabVIEW distribution.
    I don't remember how the old serial config worked and what the new version does with the VISA Configure Serial Port. Your program should only have a single serial config and you might just be able to directly replace that with the VISA configure Serial Port.
