How do I turn VoiceOver off when I am locked in Guided Access on an iPad?

I have an iPad that I use in therapy with children with impairments and often have to switch between accessibility options.  I am currently stuck in the TouchChat app with VoiceOver and Guided Access both turned on.  Every time I triple click the home button the accessibility options come up but it just reads the options aloud to me rather than letting me turn VoiceOver off.  Since I am also in Guided Access I am unable to get out of the app to go to settings to turn the VoiceOver off.  I have even tried a forced shutdown hoping that that would help, but when I turn it back on I am automatically locked back in TouchChat.  Please help!  How do I turn VoiceOver off when I am also locked in Guided Access?

Open the Seeing tab of the Universal Access pane of System Preferences and turn it off. If it's on at the login window, turn it off from the Accounts pane under Login Options.

  • How do i turn voiceover off without going to the general tab?

    I turned voiceover on and now im unable to access the screen to turn it off. It even allow me to scroll up or down or side to side. Is there anyone to turn voiceover off without going to the general tab>accessibility?

    Your best bet is an Apple store...the genius bar has seen this before & they have the tools to fix. So, go to an Apple store...make an appointment first.

  • How do I turn  voiceover off?

    I hit an odd key combo and now I have a very annoying assist mode turned on. Now everything my mouse highlights is spoken by good old Alex and certain areas are outlined in black. How can I turn this off completely? Also, my F12 key is now dashboard F10 is window viewer. Is there any way to return all the default?

  • How do I turn AppleTV off when I'm not using it?

    How do I turn off AppleTV when I'm not using it?

    It actually goes to sleep instead of powering off. Apple TV only uses 6 watts of power. That would mean 10 Apple TVs would consume the same amount of power as one 60 watt bulb and that's when it's on (not in the sleep mode).
    You can set it to go to sleep after 15 min., 30 min., etc. of inactivity in settings. I think the default is 15 min. That doesn't include watching a movie. You can also put it in the sleep mode in settings, but the easiest way is with the remote.
    Hold the Play/Pause button on the reomte for 5 secs to put it to sleep. This only works from the main menu. To go to the main menu quickly, hold the menu button for 3 secs.

  • Phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. se...

    I got a Nokia n97 mini 2 weeks ago and the phone works great except that sometimes it would turn itself off and when I turn it back on it lags and freezes. I notice every time the phone freezes and turn itself off when the "Ph. setup" in the App menu is running. Is the device updating itself? How can I make it stop? Everything freezes as soon as the Ph. setup starts running. 
    I try waiting it out (if the phone is setting something up it shouldn't take more than a few minutes) but I leave it there for several hours and it's still frozen.
    Thanks for reading -sorry if my English sucks-

    FYI: Siri can only do certain things when locked. It will not do anything that requires the iPhone to be unlocked (without first unlocking the iPhone).

    You have VoiceOver turned on.  See p. 230... http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

    I don't know how I did it, but when I am texting, the microphone keeps coming on and tries to say what I am typing.  How do I turn this off?

    I suspect you have Voice Over on:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.
    You have to tap, then double-tap to select the numbers to enter your passcode.

    It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones.  I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

  • On my own website vdha.us, I am now getting many words that are purple and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens trying to sell something. IE-9 does not do this. How do I turn this off in firefox?

    Sirs,
    The below URL came up immediately when I tried to access our Newfangled website this morning http://vdha.us :
    http://surveyprizecenter.com/survey/claimgift-GT-kw-7b.php?t202kw=Vdha.us&trimmedKeyword=Vdha.us
    I prefer to use Firefox and very seldom use IE-9. but now I might be forced to remove Firefox 4.0.1 and resort to using IE-9 because of this situation.
    I don’t know how spammers can use our website to exploit their spamming, but I can only imagine the complaints I am going to get from our Board of Directors and members about this.
    Can you make them stop, or at least explain how it is that anyone can do this without our permission.
    We have never allowed advertisement on our website and don’t plan on starting now.
    I am now also getting many words that are purple with two lines under them, and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens automatically trying to sell something. How do I turn this off?
    I would appreciate any expediency in the return of an answer that you can provide.
    Kindest Regards,

    The "MySearchDial" app needs to be removed in 4 places.
    1) Go to "add / remove programs" in your windows control panel select mysearchdial and remove it.
    2) Open your Firefox browser then click the Firefox tab at the top left and select options. You will need to change the start page settings back to your preferred start page.
    3) Again under the Firefox tab select "add-ons". In the add-ons manager you will need to remove mysearchdial from both "plugins" and "extensions"
    4) In your search bar (top right of address bar" use the drop down menu and select "manage search engines". You can restore your preferred search engine and remove mysearchdial from the menu.
    This should remove all the components of the nuisance hijacker and restore your browser back to your preferred settings. If you are comfortable with a more in depth removal I would also suggest going to your "programs" folder within the "C" drive of your machine and deleting the "MySearchDial" folder altogether. However, only do this AFTER you have uninstalled it from your system and if you are familiar with this type of removal.

  • I can no longer view my photos through th photo icon.  There is not an icon on my "slide to unlock" screen that when touched starts a slide show of my photos.  How do I turn that off so I can access my photos as before?

    Oroilore-
    I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon.  I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off.  The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted.  If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
    One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

  • Someone has hacked my things, how do I turn wifi off, and when will it be safe to go back on?

    Someone has hacked my things, how do I turn wifi off, and when will it be safe to go back on? Also, do I need to reset everything? I have already changed passwords, covered my webcam, etc. Will they still have access to my computer?

    Could you explain what you mean by 'Someone has hacked my things'?
    What Mac do you have, with what version of OS X?
    What security do you have on your wi-fi?

  • Is there a need to turn off my Apple TV when I'm using it? If so, how do I turn it off?

    Is there a need to turn off my Apple TV when I'm not using it? If so, how do I turn it off?

    Kappy,
    I know you said that my Apple TV shuts itself off after about an hours idle time but mine only shuts itself off radomly maybe one every two days even when the TV has been off and the iMack has been off over night. My wife and I both have iPhones and she has an iPad which may be causing the Apple to stay on. Don't know. Incidentally, my Apple TV  shows my iMack iPhoto pictures and albums great. Still a little concerned that it doesn't shut off after some idle time.
