HT3577 How do I turn off VoiceOver in iTunes 10 for Windows 7?

I recently downloaded iTunes to my new Toshiba Ultrabook.  Now when I select a song, I get a female voice telling me about it...it is extremely annoying.  I have not been able to find out how to disable this feature, which I believe is called VoiceOver.  Note, this happens WITHOUT any device connected to iTunes.  SO, can someone please tell me how to disable this?
Thank you.

Hey, Jpwhre
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Unfortunately there is no way of doing so, do you have Automatic download activated?
I hope this helps you. Let me know if it does. If not feel free to give me a shout. Best of luck.

  • How can I turn off genius in iTunes 10.5.3 (3)

    How can I turn off Genius in iTunes 10.5.3  under Lion 10.7.3 (other than disconnecting from the internet). It is no longer an option in the Store menu and although I can hide that playlist on the left through parental controls, the atom symbol is still present in the lower right of the window available to generate a list from a selected song. Thank you.

    I have the option to turn it off. What version of iTunes are you using? I have the latest iTunes. Have you tried signing out of the store?

  • How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens everytime I turn on my computers.  Do NOT subscribe to CC. HELP.

    How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens every time I turn on my computers.  I want this annoying window to stop appearing.  I do not and will not subscribe to "Adobe Cloud" but the program (all 197 MB) somehow found it's way onto both my computers.  Nefarious at the least.
    I'm afraid to uninstall the "adobe cloud" programs from my computers because I fear that they are linked to my stand alone version of cs6 and my somehow corrupt the operation of my cs6. 
    HELP.  PLEASE.

    Have you installed any trial of Adobe CC because in all probability the auto prompt to purchase CC appears when the trial run ends.?
    The stand alone version of CS6 is not going to be affected if you uninstall the trial CC.

  • HT204390 How do I turn off Voiceover?

    My screen is black and I can't open my iPad. How do I Open my iPad and turn off Voice Over?

    Have you tried resetting your iPad?
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
    No data will be lost.
    To turn off VoiceOver go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off.

  • How do I turn off artwork in iTunes Mini player 11.0.4?

    I have been very vocal in mourning the loss of Cover Flow but now I've given iTunes 11 a second chance on my MacBook Pro.
    The most irritating thing is the Mini Player is no longer 'mini'. How can I turn off artwork display when in mini mode? The whole point of this is to enable iTunes control whilst working, but having a big square displaying album artwork is just counter-productive.
    I just want the option of a minimalist player when working.
    Thanks,
    Rich

    Ah right, thank you!
    I had the box with the artwork as small as possible and couldn't see the other artwork bottom left!

  • How can I turn off Voiceover on iPad air 2?

    My iPad Air 2 (OS 8.1.3 ) will not allow me to turn off the Voiceover feature in Accessibility. When I tap the toggle button it slides to off position and then turns itself back on immediately. I have tried a settings reset and it stayed selected. This didn't happen with my previous OS version.
    Thanks,
    Sherry

    You're welcome, glad to hear you gpt your iPad sorted out. If you had a black screen while in VoiceOver thats called screen curtain. Triple tap the screen with three fingers to turn screen curtain off. Hopefully now that you restored your iPad you won't be needing to turn screen curtain or Voice Over off again.

  • HT3577 How can I turn off the text editing feature on an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.x - when my Mom taps the phone, it always brings up copy.  It does not do this for me so I am assuming it is the way her disability forces her fingers to hit the screen.

    My Mom has tremors and when she uses her iPhone and taps to select, the way she hits the keyboard causes the copy selection to appear.  It is not an issue with her phone because it does not do this for me.  I would like to shut off the double tap feature.  I have already tried Settings/General/Accessibility/Home speed typing = slowest.

    The editing menu doesn't come up when you double tap. It comes up when you press and hold. It can't be turned off.

  • How do i turn off auto populate itunes?

    Please tell me there is a way to switch OFF the function of having iTunes automatically populating itself with every mp3 file on my hard drive.
    I was horrified to find very sensitive work related phone calls and interviews in my iTunes library because they are mp3 files. I certainly do not wish to have them there. I only want my music in iTunes.
    So I now cannot have iTunes open when people or clients are round, because the files are people's names. It would take hours to rename them, and why should I have to? That's how I know what's in them.
    It also means that I have 8GB of stuff I do not need in iTunes and when I watch important podcast videos, the sheer volume of stuff in there slows them down and keeps stopping and starting the videos, which is hugely annoying.
    Is there a way to switch this auto populate off please?

    I definitely did not agree to it populating iTunes with all these files. It just did it on its own as soon as I opened iTunes after the new update. I assumed it was part of the update, then I saw all these millions of files. I also had my external drive connected (that has a backup of my C drive), and it copied all those files too - so I have two of everything in iTunes!
    Does this mean that every time iTunes updates, this will happen? And of course an update is an install, and they happen a LOT! - way too often for my liking.
    It's not normal, no, and has never happened to me on any of my systems. Something, perhaps a file permissions problem with a preference file or a corruption in the iTunes library files, caused the flag that tells iTunes that the first run has already occurred to be mis-set such that iTunes thought it was a new install.
    (*) About the other headache the new update caused; when I connect my iPod I now get a box saying:
    *"The iPod "(my ipod)" is synced with another iTunes library.*
    *Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library?*
    *+An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPod with the contents of this iTunes library."+*
    *"Erase and Sync"* or "Cancel"
    Ditto the above. That's a symptom of the same sort of problem. You'll probably need to clean up iTunes so that only the content you want there is present, and then allow your iPod to sync as if it was connecting to a new library (which in reality it will be).
    I clicked Cancel as I went white thinking it would try to add all those millions of files to my iPod too. So now I can't even update my iPod.
    Why on earth do I have a 2nd library? I have only ever had one PC with iTunes on. It is not on a network or anything. Is this due to the update to iTunes 10?
    How can I stop future upgrades?
    Turn off the automatic check in Apple Software Update, a separate application on your system.
    But again, this is not normal behavior. Something was corrupt in the iTunes files on your system. So once you get a clean set, this problem should not happen again unless the same conditions (whatever those might have been: software conflict, power surge, etc.) occur again. You'll want to do some of the normal steps to check for disk problems/corruptions in Windows to make sure this isn't a systemic problem with your drive or WIndows.
    Regards.

  • How do you turn off the Application Frame in the Windows version of CS6?

    I have successfully turned off the Application Frame on my Mac version of CS6 but can not find the same functionality in my Windows version.  Anyone know how to turn off
    this feature in the Windows version?

    Application Frame is a Mac only feature

    It's the normal behaviour by design for all software in the Windows environment so there's no on-off toggle.

  • How do i turn off sounds within itunes, such as the download complete sound and other sounds added with 11.11.1

    some of the sounds added with the latest addition of itunes are really annoying and suprising, especially when listening to music. how do i turn them off?

    What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization.  With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options.  If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast.  I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
    What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why?  How is this making it a better program?  I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was).  But to not give users the option to delete that list?  It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating.  I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature.  It smacks of rank incompetence.
    What improvement were they trying to make here anyway?  There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions.  Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
    And reverting to a previous version is no solution.  I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

  • How do I turn off Sync without iTunes deleting all the songs on my iPod!

    Well that's basically my question. I want to keep all the songs that are already there, but from this point on just add new ones manually. When I unchecked the Sync box it wiped out my iPod. Thanks in advance for any help.
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    You need to turn off automatic sync before you delete all your tracks from iTunes. If you don't, then you need to prevent the iPod from synching when you connect:
    While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Command and Option keys on a Mac. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer. Then you can set iTunes to manual synchronization.
    Of course, this won't help if your iPod has already had the tracks removed. But you'll know what to do next time.
    Regards.

  • How do i turn off icloud in itunes

    i dont want icloud turned on in the most recent update of itunes. can it be turned off.

    Do you mean so you won't see items in the cloud, that aren't currently downloaded, but are showing in your library?
    If so, itunes menu >> preferences >> store >> show itunes in the cloud purchases.
