Interference/ Crackling sound while using voice over...

Hi folks.
I'm new to all this "ipod-stuff". I purchased a ipod nano 5G (16GB) lately.
I was playing around with the voice over settings today and accidently discovered the following:
I plugged the ipod to an ipod compatible receiver (Pioneer VSX-918 V) via the ipod-usb cable. The ipod was recognized without any problems and the receiver took over the ipod-controls. So far so good.
It is possible to change the settings of the receiver, that it won't take over the ipod-control, so i can operate my ipod the "normal way" via scrollwheel/ ipod-menu and so on...
While i was playing a song, i accidently pushed the center button and the ipod started to read out the current song and faded out the song itself just a little. While reading out I got a crackling interference like a bad tuned radio station, which stopped after the ipod had finished reading out the song.
I tried the whole thing again, this time I paused the song and pushed the center-button for voice over. The ipod red out the current song with any interference...
I tried again, plugged in plugged out, restart and so on...you know the deal. :/ Nothing changed...
What's going on here?
Receiver bad? ipod bad? Voice over is kinda crappy anyway, but is here something wrong with a chip or something?
The german apple support couldn't help either and told me that this behaviour is normal, 'cause the voice over "voices" are kinda bad.
Summary:
Connected via USB to the receiver:
Crackling while playing a song and activating voice over...
No crackling while pausing playback and activating voice over...
No crackling while playing songs without using voice over...
Connected via 3,5 mm audio jack to any device/ earphones:
No interference at all.
greetings

Thx for helping me on this, i really appreciate that.
The "crackling problem" is gone, but i got another one.
I got a more or less loud "popping sound" when skipping tracks forward or backward, or when i manually select a track from a list and the ipod starts playing it.
At first i didn't really realize it via the headphones from apple, since they aren't very good but it's there, too.
But playing songs via my hifi-system i became pretty aware of that "initializing" like sound.
I resetted my ipod via the method told on the apple support page (Hold on/off -->Menu/Centerbutton) and updated it in iTunes again, but it didn't go away.
Greetings

Monitor my Sound while using Voice Over?

Hi all -- I have a problem using Final Cut Express 3.5 HD: Can I monitor my voice with headphones while using the voice over tool. So far I can hear the soundtracks of the material i am voicing over but not my own voice - and this is disturbing. Thanks in advance! Autogrill

The ideal way is to do it on a tape recorder etc.
(well away from the computer) and then import it, cut
it and position it exactly where you want on the
audio timeline.
I use Audacity (excellent and free) to record my voiceovers while the project is running in View > Video out > Digital Cinema Display. This ensures that the voice is in sync and with the mike several feet away from the computer there is no noise. Save the voice from audacity as an AIFF file and drop it into the Timeline and adjust the position to sync it.
Or, if I can't think fast enough and without ums and ahs, I record in blocks.

Enginge like sound while using voice based apps

My iphone works fine when i call people but when i use voice based apps like skpe magic jack or even voice recording... the other person hears a sound like that of a running engine instead of my voice and in the case of voice recording..when i playback a recording i hear the same noise instead of the actual voice.
Can anybody help?

IPod is using voice over and won't scroll. What setting did my child click? It will allow me to use voice control, but i need to know what's wrong first so I can give the correct command.

My daughter's iPod is using voice over and won't scroll. What setting did my child click? It will allow me to use voice control, but i need to know what's wrong first so I can give the correct command.

VoiceOver is an Accessibility feature while Voice Control allows you to control the Music app via voice.
To turn off VoiceOver triple click the Home button and go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn it off. Use three fingers to scroll if necessary.

Can I use voice over just for notifications?

i Want to use voice over but just so I can hear my notifications and messages read to me as they come in. But nothing else. Is it possible. ?

Forgive me as I did this a while ago, but heres how I remember it happening:
1. I wiped it
2. I selected "Set up as New iPhone"
3. It registered
4. It was activated, and was an iPod Touch basically
5. I sold it, so I can't try it. I now use Verizon, so no SIM, although I do have an original iPhone (retired), but can't find my old SIM.

when I use voice over to read an epub in my Ibooks app, which is in Dutch, sometimes he start reading a book with an English Female voice and some books he reads with the Dutch male voice (which is good). All my epubs are Dutch books so the English voice sound terrible trying to pronounce Dutch. Can i fix this problem? Thanks, Tom

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Copy and paste using Voice Over

Hello,
I use Voice Over on Leopard 10.5 and am having problems using cut, copy, and paste via Finder.
1. Command+X for cut never seems to work. The CUT option in the Finder edit menu is always dimmed.
2. Finder seems to always hang if I paste a file into a folder which contains a file with the same name as the file I am trying to paste. Sometimes, but not always, I get an Alert with buttons to replace the file or to stop the copy. Alas using vo keys + SpaceBar or even vo keys + Shift + SpaceBar to activate either of these buttons never seems to work.
Am I doing anything wrong? Is there a Leopard bug here?
Many thanks.

To quote an old joke, "it's not a bug, it's a feature!"
The Finder does not allow you to Cut an object. `This is because if there were a crash during the operation, the object might be lost both from its source and its destination. You simply have to copy the object (Command-C), then paste it (Command-V), then return to the source folder and delete the object.

Here the procedure requires you to interact with the Alert dialogue box three times in a row. After the first interaction, you hear "Interact with. List operation progress, group"; after the second time, you hear "Interact with. Operation progress, group, 3 items unknown"; after the third time, you hear "Interact with. Unknown. 3 items. An item named (filename) already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the one you're moving?". You can then navigate once right to the Stop button, or twice to the Replace button.

Crackling sound while pressing the area of Micro SIM slot?

I´ve to ask the global z1 compact users about the build quality of the devices.
My first device from amazon.de had a crackling sound while pressing the area of the micro SIM card slot - amazon did an instand replace but the replacement unit also started with this issue on day after set up. I think this is not a general fault but i´m a bit angry with this issue on such an premium device.
Can you hear anything when pressing this area? what do you think about that? Will you recharge?
I´ll hope that this is not a problem for water resistance...thinking about the Z in the first times...loosing back panel...

Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

I do not understand what "My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min." means.
Also % battery is not accurate for an iPod. It fluctuates.
Maybe this will help:

Driving Automator using Voice Over

Hello,
I am visually impaired and so use Voice Over for all MAC access. I am trying to create a workflow to speak the current time. Using Voice Over without sighted assistance I can access the required actions and variables but alas I cannot fathom out how to combine the actions into a workflow. I cannot find an edit area or whatever where I can view the actions so far and move them around as necessary.The MacHelp tells me to drag and drop the necessary actions and variables into the panel on the right (or words like that) but, of course, I cannot do that using Voice Over. I tried copy and paste but to no effect, primarily because I could not find the place to paste the actions into.
So if anyone has successfully driven Automator using Voice Over without sighted help then please pass on your tips!
Many thanks.

All I can suggest is to look at the instructions in the Users Guide. There is a lot on VoiceOver. See chapter 31 of

Set up a new macbook pro without using voice over

How do I set up a new MacBook Pro without using Voice Over. I can't get past the initial Welcome screen. The VO commands do not work as indicated in the forced tutorial.

Just click the Next and or Continue button. Voice over only starts shortly after you get to one of those screens and you wait to long to input something or click on an option and then Next or Continue. I think at the bottom of the screen there is an option to turn off the Voice over.

IPhone 5 making weird sound while using Viber

My iphone will start making strange low tone beep sound while using viber. Only when I close the app (holding it long at multi-task and clicking the X) will it stop. And then when I open it again it will start making weird beeps again. Please help.

Hey there kben,
I'm sorry to hear that your iPhone is having the same issues. This is not a known issue on the device so lets try and take a look to see what is causing it. Did you have this issue before the 7.0.2 updated? Please try a soft reset,http://vz.to/16Qv4Id and let us know if the issues persist.
If the soft reset does not work, I would recommend performing a hard reset on the device,http://vz.to/17aDIPT.
Let us know if you need any additional assistance.

Using Voice Over in the ios5 music app, when tapped into an album there is no way to back out of it except by switching off voice over! Help.

Using Voice Over in the ios5 music app, when tapped into an album there is no way to back out of it except by switching off voice over! Help. This is preventing me upgrading the iPad2 to iOS5 for a blind man I work with. Am I missing something or is it a bug?

best of luck.

Using Voice Over to Speak Text

My husband wants to use Voice Over to search the web. I have figured out how to use it to speak text, but don't know how to use it to ask questions such as searching in Google. We have one computer using Snow Leopard, and one computer using Lion.

Voice over won't do that. You need to check out Dragon Dictate.

Using voice over with genius

I'm using voice over and I can't get my iPod to move through the genius mixes even though they're synced to it. It just stays on page 1/12 and won't go any farther into the list of mixes available. Any ideas on what to do?
