Voiceover on iphone 4

my daughter turned on the voiceover command and now we are unable to scroll down to turn it off. Any suggestions?

Triple click the home button and see if it allows you to turn it off. If not, and you have synced it with itunes, go to the summary screen and select configure accessibility. that will give you that option to turn it off.

Can Someone Open the Black Box

01. I think I understand RSL usage for the Flex framework and
I think I like the fact that its implementation, for all practical
purposes, remains a Black Box. I can't see inside, but don't need
to since it just works as described in the many Googleable postings
available.
02. Now, however, we migrate to AIR and I challenge you to
find a solid description of the expected behavior in the AIR
environment. [Yes, there is one jira entry, in which some
developer, acknowledging an error in the air-config file adds the
cryptic comment -- "We don't expect most AIR apps to use these
RSLs.".
03. Now someone needs to open that black box so we can
determine how to properly take advantage of the client-side cache
for AIR applications. For that matter, it would be nice to see
concise information concerning the use of Modules in AIR
applications, but I will be so happy if I can just get the
framework modules to work properly.
04. Here is observed behavior from outside the Black Box.
A. Write/test/deploy a Flex Application compiled for use of
dynamic framework RSLs. Put the framework.swz file where the
webserver needs it to be -- and add the framework.swc version just
for the heck of it.
B. It works beautifully, and you can go look in the
client-side cache to see that the files were downloaded when
required -- just as advertized.
C. Write/test/deploy an AIR Application that uses SWFLoader
to launch on-demand exactly the same Application.swf file that was
run above.
D. It is much harder to trace, but the fact that the Module
runs correctly inside AIR is proof that AIR knew how to check the
client-side cache to resolve the links to the framework code, just
perfectly. But, if you are a doubting Tomas, rerun this AIR test
after you delete the framework.swz file from the the client-side
cache and wait for your #2032 error -- it will pop up pretty
quickly.
So, other than by asking the client to run a Flex application
in order to force-download the required framework, what is the
design pattern, best-practice or other direction concerning the
correct way for a pure AIR application to take advantage of
client-side caching of the ever-expanding framework
codebase?

Hello Maureen1842,
It sounds like you are able to see the Slide to Unlock screen but there is an outline around Slide to Unlock and it will not slide. From what you describe I'm thinking that Voice Over is enabled on the phone. Try doubletapping Slide to Unlock, that should get you to your home screen. Then go to your settings and disable Voice Over.
Turn VoiceOver on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver

Highlighting text speaks too fast already on turtle

Just upgraded to os8 on my I pad 3 . I am visually impaired. when I highlight text now it speaks way too fast to understand. I already set speach speed all the way to turtle as far as it goes ,but the slider has no control of speach speed. Before upgrading speach speed was perfect. Now I cant understand what it's saying it reads so fast. Help. Give me back os7

Hi there jamesfromsayerville,
It sounds like you need to adjust the speaking rate. It looks like this setting is in teh VoiceOver settings.
VoiceOver basics - iPhone
Change the speech rate: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then drag the Speaking Rate slider. You can also set the rotor to Speech Rate, then swipe up or down to adjust.

Automobile Voice activation and IOS7

Ever since upgrading to IOS7, my voice activation does not work in my Buick Enclave. Is there a fix for this? Buick says it is an Apple thing.

It is called VoiceOver
See:
iPhone: Configuring accessibility features (including VoiceOver and Zoom)
Try using three finger to scroll. Also try triple clicking the Home buton to turn off and then go to Settings|>Accessibilty to really turn off.

Blind user on iPhone 5S, voiceover on, can not see the Airplay icon in the Pandora app

Blind user with an iPhone 5S with iOS 7.1 updated, have the Pandora app installed, and playing streaming music from the phone. My problem is that , while the Airplay icon is visible to a sighted person holding my phone, when I attempt to activate the Airplay icon - while using Voiceover - the phone doesn't seem to be able to "see" the Airplay icon, thus won't allow me to activate it. I have tried both methods of finding/accessing the Airplay icon, via the ""pushing up" of the volume bar, as well as trying to go tot he app-switcher and doing a left-to-right swipe x2 to get to the icon without positive result. The above worked just fine in my old iPhone 4S and iOS 6.X. So, what has changed, and what should I be doing differently? Thanks!

Yes, under the Settings menu of my AppleTV, I have gone into AirPlay sub-menu and the AirPlay selection shows "ON", Onscreen Code is set to "OFF" and no Password is set up.
I also have a Tick against the AppleTV listed under Speakers.
Is there anything else I should do to enable AirPlay on the AppleTV or my iPhone?

Can i listen to the track name and artist in my iphone like ipod shuffle using voiceover kit?

Hello People,
My question is, can i listen to artist and track name on my iphone 4s like Ipod shuffle using voiceover kit?
Thank You.

I have an Alpine radio with an iPod dock adapter to let me control my iPod through my head unit. This had worked great with my Nano, but I heard that these adapters didn't work well with the iPhones. Mostly due to interference / feedback from the phone being heard through the speakers.
However, I was suprised at the compatiblity mine had with the iPhone, especially being that it is a couple years old (the apadpter). When you plug the iPhone in it says that the device may not be compatible with the iPhone and that you should put the phone in "airplane mode." I just kept my nano plugged in as I thought that I didn't want the equivalent of turning my phone OFF when driving, so one day I tapped NO. Well, to my suprise, I did not hear any feedback or interference through my stereo. And, In fact, While I was driving, I received a call and the music stopped and the phone rang!
So, your mileage may vary on whichever brand adapter you use, but I have found that it works just fine for me. Hope this helps.

Enabling VoiceOver after restoring your iPhone with iTunes doesn't work

Yesterday, I was having a problem with my iPhone 3GS and successfully got it resolved by restoring it with iTunes 10.2. Everything went fine. However, after restoring it, I went to set up the device as new (after backing up the iPhone before restoring of course). Since I am blind, I then went and attempted to select VoiceOver under the "configure universal access" section. This is where I ran into the problem. When I selected Voiceover and then hit the ok button, I got a message that said something like "VoiceOver changes the way you use the iPhone jestures. Do you want to continue." I hit continue , and then tabbed to the ok button again. At this point I was brought right back to the dialog box about continuing and realized after several attempts to get out of that screen that I was flat out stuck. Because of the fact that I am totally blind, and not say "legally blind" there was no way I was going to be able to enable VoiceOver on my own. I ended up having to disconnect the iPhone from the computer and have one of my roommates enable voiceover on the iPhone for me. But I keep wondering what happened. I mean it was scary for me, because what if my roommate hadn't been around. I would've had a non functioning iPhone (to me.) Has anyone else had this problem, or would there be anyone who'd be willing to follow the steps that I did (preferably if you have sight) to see if you can get past this screen? If not, then this is a major iTunes bug that Apple needs to know about. Note that I am using a Windows desktop with Vista 32 bit operating system, and JAWS for Windows, (running the latest update of version 12.) Any help/comments would be appreciated. Thanks. Josh

Next time before you sync always do that http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
Right now you may have to reinstall your apps before you do that http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
Have fun.

HT5025 I need an information about the voiceover utility. In Israel the Iphone comes with the VoiceOver/Siri in hebrew? Would be possible to a blind israeli use the Iphone? How?

I need an information about VoiceOver/Siri in hebrew...
Would be possible to a blind israeli use the Iphone? How?
I ask you because the VoiceOver is not translated to hebrew...

If what you are asking is whether additional languages can be added to iPhone Voiceover, the answer is "no".
You can ask Apple to add Hebrew via

Voiceover and facebook on iPhone

Is there a place that I can contact to give suggestions to apple or facebook about how voiceover is working with facebook on my iPhone? I am having a few issues that voiceover doesn't read certain things or let me open certain links... Like for example... when i'm scrolling down through my newsfeed, and a friend of mine likes a particular thing... it'll say "John likes this", but it wont actually say what he liked... or it'll say "john commented on this", but not say what he commented on...... or if someone posts a link or whatever, I can open there post and go to open the link, and it does nothing, it doesn't try and open it at all... I don't think it setting problems, I think it's just voiceover or facebook, the way they are programmed... any suggestions??? Thanks...

Settings, facebook, uncheck facebook contacts, then go to phone app, tap on groups in the top left, then uncheck facebook group, then done, then reset your phone, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up.

IPHONE popping up with "voiceover" or "what can I help you with".

My 2 month old Iphone 5 keeps on popping up with "ask me a question" (when siri is on) and "voiceover" (when siri is off). I can't listen to music without it popping up about every 20-30 seconds. (it is so distrcting) Can someone help? I am in Bermuda with no access to an apple store. I trired to re-set all my settings and also made sure voice over was turned off.
Thanks.
Jeff

Hey there Jeffrey,
It sounds like you are unable to use the phone without either Siri, or Voice Over coming on constantly. Sounds like something funny may be going on with the Home button on the phone, which you would normally hold to enable either of these 2 features. You should use these steps to help determine the issue, whether it be software or hardware:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Try turning iPhone off and then on again. If the iPhone will not restart, try resetting it.
If the issue is still happening, try to restore the iPhone.
Seek service is the issue is still occurring.

Take care,

Unable to unlock iPhone 5 while phone is locked in VoiceOver mode.

Used the accessibility VoiceOver feature for playback while driving. Was unable to unlock phone. Pressing the triple-click feature did not work. The timeout feature disabled the phone from 1 to 60 minutes with each unsuccessful pass code attempt. Dreading having to reset my phone I connected to iTunes. I was able to turn off the VoiceOver feature using the configure universal access feature and unlock the phone.

I own my iPhone 5 since it first came out in fall of 2012. I have never had an issues with the phone dropping WiFi until last month when two weeks into my biling cycle I have received notification from my carrier that I've burned through 75% of my 2G data plan. At first I thought that maybe I have left some apps running and didn't pay attention to what was occuring. So during the next billing cycle which started 10 days ago, I reset the cellurar data usage legend on the phone and kept a close eye on data usage. My phone is on wifi 99% fo the time. When I am not of wifi I only refresh my email account and check the weather. Prior to the last month, I usually use about half a Gig a month. As I've tracked my data usage with my carrier this current cycle, I found there are numerous cellular data usages during the time that I was connected to wifi. I find myself turning off my cellular data which is ridiculous. I know it's not my router, because when I used my friend's wifi, the phone still registered cellular data usage. It was all small amounts during each time, but 10 days into my billing cycle and my phone burned to 1G of data!! I still have 3 weeks of cycle to go. I've also completely rebooted my phone by erasing and reinstalling the iOS. Which btw, did not help. I cannot believe that others have reported this issue and Apple hasn't addressed it yet. The phone seems to be dropping wifi when in sleep mode. This is not normal as I've owned the phone for over a year and haven't had any troubles until last month. Does anyone have any updates on how to deal with this issue without replacing the phone?

Iphone 5 slips into "VoiceOver" accessibility mode without that option being selected. Pain to de-select it.

My iPhone 5 with iOS 8.02 slips into "VoiceOver" accessibility mode, although I have not selected that option. Such a pain to de-select it.

Hey ptsch,
Thanks for the question. Your accessibility settings may be configured to enable VoiceOver via the accessibility shortcut (triple clicking the home button). You can learn more about the accessibility shortcut here:

VoiceOver issue with iBooks on iPad and iPhone in iOS 4.2.1

I use the VoiceOver feature of my iPad and iPhone. After I upgraded to iOS 4.2.1 I was unable to buy any books from the iBooks store. I had to disable VoiceOver to make my purchases (not an easy feat when you need VoiceOver!)
I particular, I've found two bugs.
1. When I have VoiceOver enabled while using iBooks, I can not select the price button to buy a book.
2. While I'm in my Account page by first selecting "Apple ID: myappleid" at the bottom of an iBooks page and then selecting [View Apple ID] from the pop-up, I'm unable to modify any of the fileds. VoiceOver tells me I can select the fields, but when I try to, the control (numeric keypad, picker item, etc.) is not displayed and I have no way of modifying the field. H have to disable VoiceOver and navigate back to make my changes.
How do I report this to Apple?

The best place to let Apple know your views is via the channel they have set up for that.
