How do I turn off the speaking of my text while I am writing it?

I just upgraded from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6.  I restored all my settings. I have version 8.1.1 installed.  When I am typing a text out, the phone is speaking it back to me.  I do not want that turned on so I can text in silence.  I am not referring to speaking and then having the phone relay what I am speaking into a text.  How do I stop the phone from speaking what I am texting to someone?

Hi ktrigirl,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you may have VoiceOver turned on. You can disable VoiceOver one of two ways. Please use the information outlined in the attached iOS 8 User Guide below for information on disabling through the iPhone menus (page 143).
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
You can also disable your accessibility features in iTunes with your iPhone connected.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Accessibility features for iPod, iPhone, and iPad
Turn off VoiceOver
Connect your iPod to your computer and select your device.
Click the Summary button.
Deselect Enable VoiceOver.
Click Apply to sync your iPod with iTunes.When syncing is complete, VoiceOver is turned off.
Cheers,
Joe

    I have to watch an exercise video for training. You are supposed to be able to turn on and off the voice by going to the computer icon and toggle the voice on/off. However, that feature isn't on my ipad or ipod. How do I turn off the voice while keeping the music on?

  • How do you turn off the speaker and only use earphones to hear music written in software?

    I have software with which I write music.  I would like to listen to the piano part produced by the computer while recording the voice part.  To do this, I must turn of the computer's speaker and hear the piano part only through ear phones.  How can I do this?

    Not sure what you're talking about.  The MacPro doesn't have any built in camera as far as I know.  If you've got a monitor with a built in camera,  there's probably a way to disconnect it.

    how do I turn off the feature on my ipod so that it stops speaking all of my playlists

    To disable that feature it will depend on whether or not you sync everything in the cloud using Apple's iCloud, OR if you both use the same desktop/laptop computer with iTunes. Here is a link to the Apple support page in regards to the automatic download feature included with your iPhone and corresponding softwares such as iTunes.

  • How can I turn off the Ipod 5g speaker so it just plays through the headphones?

    How can I turn off the Ipod 5g speaker so that it just plays through the headphones?

    First make sure your headphones are plugged all the way in, meaning no silver from the headphones plug can still be seen.
    If that's not the issue, try a hard reset of the Nano.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • My  BEATS speakers are connected to my Mac but I have no audio and do not understand how to turn off the speaker. I press the power button and not shut off. And the white light behind me indicating that this synchronized, does not turn off ever.

  • How do I turn off the headphones to make a call?

    This is odd.
    How do I turn off the headphones off to make a call?
    For the last two days, every time I make or receive a call, my iPhone (1.1.3) thinks that my headphones are in, even when they are not. When the call engages, there is no audio on the handset. (If I plug my headphones in, the phone works as normal.)
    I have turned the phone off and on. (Again and again, in fact.)
    I have reset the system software.
    I have sacrificed a tofu chicken and did a little dance.
    I cannot find a setting to force this feature to turn off.
    Is there anything obvious that I am missing?

    Try inserting and removing the earbuds several times.
    If this doesn't work, insert the earbuds and start playing a song and then remove the earbuds. If sound is not heard from the external speaker, time to give AppleCare a call (800) 694-7466 or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
    Lint or a foreign substance in the earbud jack can cause this and it doesn't take much.

  • How can I turn off the WLS 6.1 security in order to develop my own application-based security module?

    Dear Colleagues,
    I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
    My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
    The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
    Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
    Now we need to develop our own security module.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
    2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
    At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.
