Voice over on an ipad

I cannot activate voice over on an ipad 1. Is there a tutorial on it? I'm trying to set it up for a visually impaired person.

Have you checked in the manual? Please Get the iPad User Manual for iOS 5. I'm not even sure there is a voiceover on an iPad, but if there is the manual should be helpful.

  • There is a voice over in my Ipad 2 and i cant unlock my ipad using my passcode

    Please Help! i just updated my Ipasd2 and there is this in accesibility, that made me in trouble. there is a voice over in my Ipad, whenever i touched it. and there i cant unlocked my Ipad. Help!

    Is this what you said? :
    You updated your iPad 2 to iOS 6. You were playing with accessibility (or turned it on accidentally) and turned voiceover on. Now you can't unlock your iPad.
    Do you know how to use the iPad in VoiceOver mode? First tap on what you would normally tap on. Then double tap anywhere on the screen. To unlock the iPad, tap on the "Slide to Unlock" bar. Double tap. Tap on the first character in your passcode. Double tap. Etc.
    To turn off voiceover (even without unlocking the iPad), triple tap the home button. tap on VoiceOver. Double tap.

  • How do I disable voice over from my ipad while it's locked?

    How can I disable voice over from my ipad while it's locked? I accidentally activated it on my mum's ipad and now she's panicking! Haven't been able to put in her password so a little bit of help asap would be appreciated. Tried double tapping the passcode in but still didn't work! Thanks

    How did you turn it on, via Settings or a triple-click of the home button ? You could try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
    If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling ; so to type a digit of the passcode tap the digit so that it gets a box around it and then double-tap it to type it) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

  • How do I turn off voice-over service on ipad?

    (Please read this all the way through to avoid confusion)
    When I watch certain channels On Demand on my ipad, there is a voice-over for the visually impaired .. a narrator that describes every single little thing the characters are doing (which is amusing when it's a sex scene). I cannot find any way to turn this off. It's mostly on USA network. I have looked everywhere and can't find a way to shut it off. It has nothing to do with the closed-captioning, or the audio/secondary audio function. Can anyone help?

    See this Apple doc -> iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
    VoiceOver
    If VoiceOver is on and you want to turn it off from the device instead of from iTunes, remember that a double-tap acts like a single tap and you need to use three fingers to scroll when VoiceOver is on:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On"  next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.
    You can configure the device to display options for VoiceOver, Zoom, or White on Black when you triple-click the Home button. This feature is off by default; to enable it, tap  Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-click Home.
    If VoiceOver is on and the screen is black, but you can still use the device by pressing volume up and volume down, you may have screen curtain on. Try triple-tapping using three fingers on the device display to turn off screen curtain. Or connect the device to iTunes (see above).
    You can also turn it off from iTunes, that document goes over that too.

  • I am trying to turn off the Voice Over and can not scroll the IPAD to the accessibility tab

    I am not sure how but the Voice Over on my IPAD came on.  I have read that if I go to the settings, General, Acessibility I should be able to turn it off.  I am unable to scroll the touch screen to the Acessibllity tab.  thanks

    Connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer.
    Under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, at the bottom select Configure Universal Access. Turn it off there and select OK.

  • How do I enter passcode in voice over mode?

    Hi, Don't know I did it, but I activated voice over mode on Ipad 1. Now can;t enter passcode. Any help appreciated.

    Touch or tap the field that you want to use/select and it should get a box around it ; then double-tap that field to activate/type it. Once you've entered your password you can do the same (i.e. touch to select, double-tap to activate) to gradually get into  Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off.

  • Looking for a reading App.  iPad (iOS 7.1.2) - Kindle.  I am looking for a good app that can help a college student with reading books that cannot be found on audio book. Voice over works, but monotone!

    iPad (iOS 7.1.2) - Kindle.
    I am looking for a good app that can help a college student with reading books that cannot be found on audio book.  I have tried voice over and it works but it's very monotone and it really strings things together. 
    - I'm willing to pay for a good app but I can't seem to sort though the many that are out there. Any suggestions.

    Ah. I'm surprised, but there we go.

    Didn't have time to do more than skim, but 'Ardour' looked promising. Protools is the only one I've used, the full product is one of the industry standards, but the free 'lite' version listed here seems to be limited to 2 in/out as well.
    Referring to your original post, I'd think trying to write or 'script' something would be a nightmare ... synchronisation of streams within something like Applescript would be a major issue, quite apart from anything else.

    You should be able to turn it off on the iPad by using 'a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process' and 3 fingered scrolling to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn it 'off' (so to use the 'slide to unlock' tap the slider and then double-tap it, and to type your passcode tap a digit and then double-tap it etc), or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

  • TS3274 My Air Ipad keeps switching to voice-over, it will not allow me to enter my password. It keeps saying that I've entered the wrong password.  It's asking for a password of zero value. How can I correct this.

    My Air Ipad keeps switching to voice-over, and it will not allow me to enter my password. It keeps saying that I've entered the wrong password.  It's asking for a password of zero value. When I enter my personal password that I created, it say it the wrong password, then it say try again in 5 minutes and shuts itself down.  Is anyone else having this issue and how can I fix it?

    Hello SharonLo
    Your best bet would be to restore your iPad if it is not accepting your passcode. Check out the article below to walk you putting your iPad into recovery mode and using iTunes to restore it.
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.

  • IPad quit working but voice over works...?

    My dad used his iPad all the way till it died, then when he tried plugging it back in, it wouldn't come on. So now it's just a plain black screen. We have charged it, and we have reset it numerous times and the logo only comes on for a split second then goes off. The voice over is the only thing that works. We keep reseting it and sometimes little glitches of the screen will come on for a nano-second and thats it. How do we fix this? And we have updated it on iTunes and charged it with different chargers and everything.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
