Voice Over won't give me the specifics.

Ever since I got my 3rd gen. shuffle, Voice Over has worked but It won't tell me the song names, artist names, playlist names, etc. It simply refers to all playlists as "playlist 1, playlist 2" until 10 then all playlists from 11 on are called just "playlist." Please help, its a pain not knowing what I'm listening to.
According to iTunes, my iPod software is up to date.

In the Summary tab, under Options and Voice Feeback have you checked "Enable VoiceOver"?

I use an external hard drive as a Time Machine back up, but I want to use another external hard drive to save movies, photos on it, but it won't give me the option to save anything on the new external hard drive. Nothing is wrong with the external hard.

Hi Clarkett99,
To use an external hard drive for your iTunes library, see the steps in this article -

HT201272 I downloaded an album but one of the songs is corrupted, it only plays for about 4 seconds. When I try to re-download using the iTunes Store and "Purchased", it won't give me the option to download it again. How can I get the song I PAID for!!??

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

My iMovie voice recording is suddenly not working. As I record, it shows the green bars; however, when I play the recording it does not play my voice over at all nor show the green bars. I was mid-way through my project when this problem occured.

As far as I can see, it's random. Everything. Nothing makes any sense!
A the moment, the iPhone is playing music with the SIM card, but without anything plugged into it, but it's occasionally fading in and out.
Oh, and I doubt this is related, but about two months ago the iPhone failed to show that the battery was draining - it was stuck at 100%. This went on for a few days, it wouldn't even warn me at the 20% mark, it would just shut off. This happened for at least three full charges - I remember at one point it suddenly started working again at about the 70% mark, I'm not sure if it was alright after that or if it went glitchy on the next charge... but in any case, the problem mysteriously never reappeared after those few days.

Disk utility will not boot using COMMAND R. It won't give me the 'ERASE' option when I open Disk Utility. How do I wipe my hard drive?

If you're truly running 10.6.8, there is no Recovery partition - that didn't come along until 10.7x.
You'll need to use the set of gray discs that originally shipped with your model. If you don't have them, you can always get your serial number from the bottom of the casing and call Apple to get a set of replacement discs. These will run you about $20 + shipping & taxes. Once you have the discs, boot from Disk One and use Disk Utility to erase your HD and then reinstall whichever version of OS X that shipped with your model. No way around of getting the discs.

HT4759 I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar. The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen. What am I missing? Thank you.

I'm assuming you are trying to log in using Safari on your ipad - if this is the case, you can't do that on an iOS device. You must use the Calendar app on the device. If you are using someone else's device, then you have a problem doing this. I just tried using Chrome on an iPad and that also doesn't work. If there's on nearby, use a computer's browser, that works.

The reset will only show if you had put a rescue email address on your account, if you aren't getting the link then you don't have one and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

My ipod shuffle voice over button does not list the song/artist or give battery status. I am following direions but it doesn't respond wether I push it once or twice. Any ideas?

?The voice over button does not work per directions (press once for title/artist; press twice for battery status. Any ideas how to make this work?

I discovered that if I push the button quickly (twice), I get the battery status. But I still do not have any title artist data. The music get quieter but no info.

Voice over won't turn off

My iPod nano 6th gen voice over appears to be turned off everywhere I look, yet I still get the screen text read to me intermittently as new songs begin playing. My headphones do have a mic and I'm wondering if that is somehow triggering the voice over to go on. It's very annoying. Anyone else have this issue?

Hey, sid_licious: I, too, have suffered through the maddening torture of The VoiceOver. Especially maddening is its' apparent randomness in bringing itself to life. I've wondered if, for example, the movement of my headphone cable jack in the ipod itself could have caused the problem. I HATE, HATE, HATE the feature: it has no place in my life (or ears) so I looked around the apple website and found these instructions to uninstall VoiceOver completely. Not sure if this permenant solution is what you're looking for but, I'm going to give it a try later today. That said, I obviously don't know if it's going to work. Here it is:
How to uninstall VoiceOver Kit
By downloading VoiceOver Kit to your computer, your iPod will announce the names of your songs, artists, and playlists. If you no longer wish to use the VoiceOver feature on your iPod and want to remove the VoiceOver Kit from your computer, follow the steps below.

Voice Over won't switch off on my iphone 4

I'm getting a bit annoyed with it now, the **** thing won't stop talking to me, I can't scroll down anything, I've tried triple clicking on the round button but it's not stopping the voice over. Help please? Thank you

I am having the exact same problem. If when the phone is powered off, the flash light stays on. I did a hard reset, and the problem persists.

Voice Over won't give me the specifics.
