You may have VoiceOver turned on. Check here. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Voice Over>Off

With Voice Over, you highlight whatever you are trying to select and then double tap anywhere on the screen to select.
So for your password of 1234 you have to
"Highlight 1, then double tap the screen, Highlight 2, the double tap the screen,... etc."
In order to remove you have 2 options:
Option# 1 – Turn off Voice Over
Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
Double tap screen to go into settings
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
Double tap screen to go into general
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “ACCESSIBILITY”
Double tap screen to go into accessibility
Once you are in make sure that EVERYTHING in that section are shown as “OFF”
Option #2 - Reset your Phone
Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
Double tap screen to go into settings
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
Double tap screen to go into general
Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “RESET”
Double tap screen to go into reset
Select “Reset all setting” and continue to follow the instruction
(When you reset, all of your data and music WILL NOT erase. So don’t worry about that)
Hope this helps.

my ipod touch is stuck in some kind of talking mode and wont scroll and i have to double click everything. how do i get it back to normal

- Try triple clicking the Home button and then going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off
- Next try connecting the iPod to the computer and going to the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes. Click on Configure Universal Access and turn VoiceOver off.

A text like box has appeared on the screen of iphone and have to double click everything also it will not scroll down or across how can I fix this?

A text like box has appeared on the screen of my iphoe and this has to be over the app I want to use. I then have to double click on the icon for it to open. I cannot scroll across or down. I can access the apps but because it will not scroll I cannot access all of the screen. Can nayone help please???

It sounds like VoiceOver is partially on. First try triple pushing the Home button. This may turn VoiceOver off. If that doesn't work going to Settings/General/Accessibility and make sure VoiceOver is Off. Note you may have to use 3 fingers on the screen to scroll.

I'm editing a lot of wedding photos. For some reason, I have to double click on some of the photos to actually see my changes. It is not the case for all the photos in the folder.... only some of them. How can I make all the edited versions show?

I am editing a bunch of wedding photos. Everything has been fine until today..... I opened up the folder, and for some of the edited photos, I have to double click in order to see the edited version. So, when I look at all the photos in the browser, some of then show my changes..... others don't. I'm worried, because I will have to post them for the bride, and I am concerned about why this is happening. I still have the images on the memory card and also have a duplicate of all the photos in iphoto..... but I've spent hours editing these photos...... and I really don't want to start all over again.

Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
Anyone help you with your fix yet?

I am having to double click on everything in outlook 2011 to get anything to work.

For some weird reason, I have to double click on just about anything to get it to work in Outlook 2011. For example, if I click once on a folder it does not go to that folder until I click it again. This is annoying in that there are a few things that respond to a single click, so as you are doulble-clicking around you hit one of the things that doesn't require a double-click and end up having to go back 5 steps to fix what you did.
Anyone else see this?

If the downloads are gone, it's possible that Windows is removing the downloads based on security policies set in IE. I realize that sounds strange, but it's related to Firefox's feature of submitting downloads to your virus scanner and marking them as having come from the internet.
To test this theory, you could try disabling the scan feature. I assume you have good "real time" antivirus protection which checks every file saved to your hard drive. (If not, you really should get that, and you can use Microsoft's free [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials Microsoft Security Essentials] for now until you have time to review all the available choices.)
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''scan''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' to toggle its value.
Firefox now should ignore Windows' download security. Does it change how Windows handles the file?

The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is always talking. How do I make her voice go away and my IPAD work like it should.

If you've turned VoiceOver on then see if triple-clicking the home button turns it off, and then change what Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home is set to.
Otherwise, via 'the touch to select double-tap to activate' process you need to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off
The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither

For some reason, I now have to double-click on my bookmarks on my task bar. How do I change it back to a single click?

In my bookmarks task bar, I used to have to just single click on the bookmark and it would open to that site. Now it seems that I have to double-click to get the bookmark to open. I want it back like it was - single click opens site. Please tell me how to fix this.
Thank you!

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

My iphone 4s has a box around one of the icons and i have to double click on an icon to get anything to work and it won't reset either?

I'm no sure what to do with my phone. I have an iphone 4s that has an outlined box around whatever icon i touch. It won't reset either. It also is working slow too. I have to double click on whatever icon i'm trying to use just to get it to work.

Answered in another thread. Probably you have Voice-Over activated in the Settings...general...Accessibility section.
Triple-click your Home button to toggle it off agin maybe?

Hi,
Try this ... reboot your Mac and see if double clicking works again.
Also, you can just select the Application you like to open and hold down the Command+O to open.
Also, did you check your setting for the mouse in system preferences.

Can't Drag Clips From Browser! Have To Double-Click To Load Into Viewer.

For some reason my DV PAL clips in the Browser can't be dragged.
I have to double-click them to load them into the Viewer from where I can drag them anywhere.
What have I done . . . . . go on, I bet it's so simple I'll be kicking myself?
Incidentally I have swapped my silver keyboard for an old white one but FCP 6 is working fine.

Well I'll be hornswoggled . . . . . it was a preference job!
Come to think of it, I was fiddling with them earlier, but only changed the number of levels of "Undo" from 10 to 30.
