Hi Eleanor,

1. To simply mute the apple speech do a "Three finger double tap" somewhere
on the touch screen.
2. To unmute the speech, do a "Three finger double tap" quickly on the
screen.
3. To turn off the voice completely, press the "Home key" three times
quickly.
4. To turn on the speech again press the "Home key" three times quickly.
5. To turn on the screen curtain, do a "Three finger triple tap" quickly on
the touch screen.
6. To remove the screen curtain, do a "Three finger triple tap" quickly on
the touch screen.

Paul.

Subject: [vip_students] Apple iPad

OK all, I've taken the plunge, I vowed never to purchase an Apple product
and in particular never to have a touch screen device.  Tonight I am the
proud owner of the iPad!!!  Haven't a clue.  Where's a good place to start?
I know how to turn on Voice Over from the tactile Home Screen button which I
think is the on/off switch too though when I try to turn it off nothing
happens.  Also speech says screen locked.  Is this the list for me to ask
questions or do I need to go to another list?
 
Eleanor
