Siri doesn't shut up and all icons have to be double-tapped to open

The title sums up the problem. When you press the home key to wake up the iPhone, Siri announces the time and when you try to slide to unlock, she says "slide to unlock" and you have to double-click the slide bar to open the phone. When the phone opens up, she says "calendar" (which is the first icon on the screen, and announces the date. Typing any icon, she announces the name of the icon and says "double-click to open." Clicking any link (for example, in Settings), requires a double-click and the phone is unable to do any scrolling with your finger.

Thanks, randers4, for the very quick response that solved the problem. I thought for sure we would have to take the phone to the Geneous Bar to get it fixed. Three fingers let me scroll to Accessibility and then take off VoiceOver, which solved the problem. This is my wife's iPhone and she has no idea how VoiceOver was turned on.

I have an IPhone 4S. My color pictures and all icons have lost their color. How do I get the color back? Did I touch a wrong button?

I have an IPhone 4S. All my color pictures and icons turned to looking like a negative. No color! How do I get the color back on my phone?

Hi ladwwd56,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Is it possible that you may have an Accessibility feature called "White on Black" turned on?
See page 244 of the iPhone User Guide PDF:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1539/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.p df
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone screen, which may make it easier to read the screen. When White on Black is turned on, the screen looks like a photographic negative.
Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the “White on Black” switch.
If that is not the case, try restarting / resetting the iPhone:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:

Browse and Games icons have disappeared

Hi
My browse, favorites and Games icons have completely disappeared, when I go to my app I can see all the games installed, however I can not find them on my blackberry. I have already tried to updated it but says I have the latest version of software.
Could you please help me on what do it to recover them.
Many Thanks

If you don't know the restrictions code then do you know if it was on the iPad when you last backed up ? If not then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.

I upgraded my new Ipad to OS 5.1.1, and all apps have started crashing. As soon as I open an app it crashes right away. Tried syncing, restarting, hasnt made a difference. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

You mention that you have tried restarting, but did you try a reset?
Simultaneously hold down the Home and the On buttons until the iPad shuts downs. Ignore the Off slider should it appear. This will take ten seconds give or take. After the sut down is complete, press the Onn button to restart. NOTE: this is different from simply shutting down the iPad.

My iMac (2011) has been persistently throwing this error message: "SafariDAVClient quit unexpectedly." This started when I moved up to Mavericks, from Lion.

That's related since the process is attempting to load your Safari bookmarks from iCloud, and is crashing for some reason.
Try this:
Select the entire line that follows (triple-click to select it), then control-click, and from the contextual menu that appears, select Services > Reveal in Finder:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iCloudHelper
Drag that entire folder to the Desktop.
Quit Safari.
Attempt to open iCloud Preferences again. If it opens de-select Safari.
Launch Safari again and determine if the problem is fixed.

I have downloaded Photoshop Elements and all went well. When I went to open, it opens fine but is unreadable. I have a Mac and my flash player is up to date. Can you please tell me what I am missing?

I did try to uninstall and reinstall. It messed up my computer. I had to "RESTORE" from the prior days backup. This was not helpful at all. I'm used to losing all my stuff when I connect to iTunes, that's a whole other issue, but now I'm completely banned from any updates to my phone at all. Geeze.......

You can share the purchasing Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: (your dad's appleid here)
With all other Apple services, iMessage, iCloud, Game Center, FaceTime etc. use your own Apple ID.

Copying/transferring will not work. You need to install the software using installation files.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

You'll need to call Adobe customer support on the telephone. There's little we fellow users can do to help you.

I have updated my iphone4 and all data have gone including photos contacts and notes .is there any solution?

All data that was on your iPhone should be on your computer.
All photos that were transferred to your iPhone from your computer should remain on your computer and can be retransferred. Photos/videos captured by the iPhone can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera - especially before installing an iOS update. Re-transfer these photos from your computer as with any other photos available on your computer.
Contacts and notes are designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer, and there are some free email accounts that support syncing contacts and notes over the air.
