When typing a text message my iPhone 4 now speaks some of the words as I type.  Where did this feature come from and how do I turn it off?

You have VoiceOver turned on.  See p. 230... http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

  • I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?

    Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
    I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
    I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
    I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
    Please can anybody help.
    Cheers,

    There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

  • Why does iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?

    Why does my iPhone automatically enter my entire email address when I simply type "gmail" and how to I turn it off?  It also does it whenever I type it in Safari (but not Chrome) and it only does it with one of my email addresses and not any of my other ones (i.e., yahoo, hotmail, etc.). 
    Thanks so much for your help!

    I don't see visible underscores in that login form, but they appear to be entered (that form isn't high enough to show them for me).
    You can verify that in the Scratchpad and use Execute > Display after pasting the below posted code.

  • When I click the Sections button then click on the 1st page I get  a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it. I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back.

    In Pages when I click the 'Sections'  button then click on the 1st page I get  a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"!  Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it? I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'.   Rdal

    Roger,
    The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

  • I receive numerous messages in "Bulk Mail". Where do they come from and how can I prevent them from being received? Thanks

    Once you're on a spammer's list, there's nothing you can do to stop the flood of e-mail messages. You can either control it, using spam filtering (which is what files those messages in the Junk Mail folder), or you can throw out your e-mail address and get a new one.
    It's sad, but spam is simply a fact of life at this point, and there's nothing to be done about it. Legislation has been tried, with zero success, since most spam either comes from countries with no legislation or from personal computers that have been infected with malware and are part of a "botnet."

  • I've been sent a scan of a document as an attachment. Clicking on it, I get the message, "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." What is pixel aspect ration and how do I turn it off?

    I've been sent a scan of a document as an attachment. Clicking on it, I get the message, "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." What is pixel aspect ration and how do I turn it off?

    It's "aspect ratio", not aspect "ration". 
    It's what determines whether you have square pixels ("normal") or, if rectangular pixels, what the aspect ratio (width : length)  of that rectangle is.
    It's explained in the Help files.  I cannot go into more detail because you have neglected to provide information about your platform and exact version of Photoshop.

    You know - you google this issue and get a useless tread saying join another thread.  how about a link?  and this is the top google result.

    My welcome screen used to have just my name and an icon.  Now it has my name on one side and guest user on the other. where did it come from and how do I get rid of it?

    Either you enabled the guest user, or you enabled Find My Mac, which requires there to be an active guest account for a thief to log into, so that they'll connect to the internet and allow you to locate it.

  • Why when im streaming my songs for my library on my apple tv does it censor the songs and how do i turn it off?

    Why when im streaming my songs for my library on my apple tv does it censor the songs and how do i turn it off?

    I use iTunes Match, and I notice that when I play "matched" versions of 2Pac's "I Ain't Mad at Cha", all of the curse words are skipped over. Just to make sure it wasn't my copy of the track, I played it off of my permanent library, and the song plays properly. So I believe that Apple has seen fit to censor the song. I haven't read about this anywhere, but I'm pretty upset about it. I own the track -- I have a copy of 2Pac's Greatest Hits, which I ripped. If I turn off iTunes Match and transfer the song to my mobile devices with a USB cable, I could play it the way I want to hear it. I think iTunes Match is a fantastic concept, but I don't need Apple deciding what kinds of music I should or shouldn't be listening to.
    Incidentally, I haven't noticed other tracks with curse words censored. It may be that I loaded them onto my mobile device before Apple began censoring.

  • Can you get rid of the alternative letters when typing a text message? Ie all the accented versions etc?

    I've just upgraded from and iPhone 3GS to the iPhone 5 and I'm finding it really slow to text because you have to wait for it to bring up all the options.
    Before it'll put the letter there.
    I don't have them on my iPad.

    Hi Victoria, guess I should have thought ahead and not assumed you were US-based...can never tell when a poster has flawless English
    Good to hear the problem is cleared up, but curious about the US keyboards since my iPhone has three plus the British.
    Another trick when the iPhone gets slow or acts up, do a reboot, also called a soft reset, by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts.  If the red slider appears just ignore it and the iPhone will eventually do the logo-restart.  That clears a great many minor problems in the operating system.

  • When I connect my iPhone to my WIndows 7 PC it automatically launches Word, why?  And how do I turn it off?

    Every time I connect my iPhone 4 (plug it in) to my Windows 7 PC it lauches Microsoft Word.  I believe it strarting doing this when I upgraded to the latest iOS a could of weeks ago so that leads me to believe it may not be my PC setting, right?  I would like turn it off so Word doesn't launch every time.  Thank you.

    1) Connect the iPhone to your pc (close Word, and close iTunes)
    2) Control Panel (classic view)> Scanners and Cameras
    3) Your iPhone should appear here as a camera. Right click and select "Properties"
    4) Click the "Events" tab, make sure the "Select an event" pulldown is set to "camera connected"
    5) In the "Actions" box, select "Take No Action" and hit OK.
    You should be good to go.

  • My voicemail is being converted to text why and how do i turn it off

    Hi My iphone 4 has started to convert my voicemail messages to text...how do i turn this off please!

    Cool. If you figure out how to turn that on, let us know...
    Where, exactly, are you seeing the text voice messages? In Voice mail? E-Mail? Text messages?
    Can't figure out how this could possibly happen unless you're actually looking at the Google Voice app and messages coming into that, not your carrier voice mail.
