Is there a way to calibrate voice control on ipod touch ios 6.0.1?

it seems like every time I update to a new ios it just causes a new problem. not usually a big one, but something. last time (when I updated to ios 6) my app store kept crashing. this time the biggest problem I'm having is that since updating to ios 6.0.1 my voice control can't seem to understand me. I ask it to play artist "pink" and instead it somehow thinks I've asked it to play songs by "greenday" or, even funnier "mannheim steamroller" it's like I'm playing russian roulett on whether or not it will actually understand me, only instead of 6 chambers and one bullet (it misunderstanding me being the bullet) it's more like 1,000 chambers and 999 bullets. I have pretty much given up on voice control for now, which means I don't get to change what I'm listening to if I'm driving, since I'm very safety conscious and will not look at the screen to change it. does anyone know if there is a way to calibrate the voice control?

Nothing special for VC. You can try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Is there any way to stop "Voice Control"?

    Hiya
    I am hoping one of you will be able to help me with this......
    Tonight my phone has started to beep and then on the screen it shows "Voice Control" with a list of question ideas to ask voice control.
    I have read that "Voice Control" cant be disabled but have seen a couple of ideas on how to get around it but for some reason they arent working on my phone and it keeps interupting my messages, etc when Im half way through using my phone.
    I have tried to turn on Siri hoping that it would stop Voice Control coming up on my phone but that didnt work.
    I have tried activating "Switch Control" because apparently they both cant run at the same time....didnt work for me.
    I have tried Assistive Touch and nope that hasnt worked either.
    I have even tried to reset my phone then back it up from the last time i had on,my computer. Didnt work.
    Only thing I have read that I havent tried is the reset my phone and start from the begining with it.
    I have looked around and read a lot of forums but I was hoping someone might have had the same problem as me and might be able to tell me if it can be fixed or what happened with theirs?
    I have no idea why this is happening or why its happened today. I havent dropped it or anything like that and the phone is just over a year old so its not under warranty unfortunately.
    Voice control is different then the Voice Over option too
    I think my home button may be sticking and the "three clicks on the home button" is to go to my voice control.
    Thanks for your help! Appreciate it
    Thanks!

    Voice control can to be disabled. Sounds to me like you have a broken/defective home button. Make an appointment at the genius bar and have it looked at.

  • Is there a way to *disable* tv-out on ipod touch?

    I just upgraded from a regular ipod classic to the new touch. I had one of those Peripheral ipod kits in the car, and my son likes to watch movies on our longer drives to the grandparents every weekend.
    Anyway, got this new ipod touch, which blocks out video when it's plugged in. The screen says "plugged in - video is displayed on connected screen". Problem is, there is no connected screen. I just run this through my factory radio. With the ipod classic you can go into settings and enable/disable tv-out, so you can watch the screen while it's plugged in.
    This new ipod touch doesn't have that option. It seems to automatically default to tv-out if anything is plugged in.
    How do I defeat this? This was the reason I bought the touch and it would be pretty unfortunate if I could not have my son watch his videos in the car.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your replies, Joseph!
    the kit I have is like this: http://www.amazon.com/Peripheral-Interface-General-vehicles-vehicle-specific/dp/ B0015D00QK
    (not that exact one, but basically the same thing). I'm not using the 3.5mm headphone jack to connect it to the stereo as my car is a 2002 and didn't have that 3.5mm input jack. I'm plugging into the bottom of the ipod as this unit charges while it plays through my factory sound system. The unit is plugged in to where the cd changer used to be plugged in - this operates in lieu of the cd changer. When I press "changer" on my headunit, it goes to the ipod basically - but I still control the ipod from the ipod, not the car stereo.
    I'll post screen shots of the two video setting menus of each device to show what I'm talking about. The older ipods let you disable that TV OUT, the new touches and ipads do not, for some reason. Can't imagine why you wouldn't want to override that - sometimes those charger cables make the ipod think there is a video output for some reason.

  • Is there a way to speed up Safari on Ipod Touch 4G?

    My Safari has gone much slower and I got the Ipod 7 months ago. Is there a way to speed it up?

    Try clearing Safari's History, Cookies and Cache, by heading to Settings -> Safari and tapping the delete button for each of these items.
    Then do a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If you are still having issues, try restoring the iPod from a previous backup and then to factory defaults after that if necessary.
    Is it slow no matter what type of Wi-Fi network you are connected to?

  • Is there a way of blocking websites on a ipod touch

    wierd websites keep apearing on my safari pade i keep going back to the history folder to try and block them bt its no use.
    is there a way to block pages on safari if know PLEASE TELL ME NOW!!!!!

    Ok, just stop and think about the question for a minute. 
    The iPod is powered OFF and he wants to know if there is a way to turn the iPod ON "remotely" which implies he cannot physically push the On/Off switch to the ON position.
    Because the iPod must be powered  ON for it to be connected to a wireless network, your answer makes no sense at all.
    Therefore the answer to the question is NO. 

  • Is there a way to recover photos on a ipod touch 5th gen after restoring it.

    Last week i changed the password of my ipod touch 5th gen and I couldnt get back in so I put my ipod touch on recovery mode and now ive lost all of my 3000 photos. Is there any way to recover them? Everything else is recovered.

    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:

    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

  • Is there a way to transfer backups of an iPod Touch to another computer?

    I'm transferring all my iTunes stuff to my new laptop. I already have the songs and apps transferred, but I want to also transfer my backup (passwords, app data, bookmarks, etc.). Where will this backup save to, and can I restore the backup when I restore my iPod on the new computer? Also, will things like in-app purchases still work after I restore? I don't want to lose all my DLC on various apps.
    Also, I'm going to be updating from 3.something to 4.0 when I restore, if that makes a difference. I have an iPod Touch 2nd gen.
    The older computer with my iPod backup is running Windows XP. My newer one is running Windows 7.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. Passwords for Mail and Network have to be entered manually again, due to security reasons.
    See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • Is there any way to transfer EVERYTHING from an ipod touch 1st generation to a new ipod touch?

    i have an ipod touch first generation and recently purchased a new ipod touch. is there a way to get all the photos and text from the old one to the new one?

    Easy.  Make sure all music and apps are in your iTunes library and just restore you new iPod from the backup of your old iPod.  Make sure you make a backup of the old one right before.  You should be offered that option when you first connect your new iPod to your syncing computer.  I was.

  • Is there any way to text short codes on iPod touch five?

    I have an iPod touch five. In order to text my local radio station I need to take shortcuts I cannot do this with iMessage so I downloaded the Pinger app this will not work either I know you can do it on an iPhone but I was wondering if there's anyway you can do it on an iPod? This would be really great thank you

    I would contact the radio station. It may requires going through a wireless carrier which the iPod can't do.

  • Is there any way I can get a new ipod touch after it has been stolen and police report filed?

    Someone stole my ipod touch from my purse at church. Can u believe that? I called apple and all they say is that i can file a police report. Thats all they can do. I can't get a new one??? i filed the police report. what do i do now??? just wait??. well i found out where they live. I located the ipod on a map and the exact house and name. should I just go over there and take it from them?? lol

    Pay serious attention ot Illaass's advice about the police. Don't try recoverying it yourself, or forcing a confrontation with the alleged thief.
    Good for you that you installed and activated Find My iPhone! Now get yourself to your local police station right now with the information from Find My iPhone printed out if you can. The sooner you do this, the more likely that they can recover your property.
