Hi Ger,

OK, try turning off accessibility altogether. If your phone is an IOS5 4S
model then press the "Home button" three times quickly in order to turn off
accessibility. Now after about 10 seconds, again repeat the press of the
home button three times to turn back on accessibility and see what happens.

Paul.

Hi Paul

The mute toggle is indeed in the forward position all the time. The ringer
sounds loudly and voiceover announces the name of caller and that is the
only time voiceover speaks.  When the mute switch is pushed back the phone
will only vibrate and there is no voiceover at all as was always the case.
Got any other suggestions 'cos I'm baffled!

Hi Ger,

It sounds like you have the "mute toggle" switched turned on. This causes
speech to be reduced and for the unit to only vibrate when activated in some
manner such as a phone call. To unmute it, locate the switch which is on the
very top left side of your IPhone unit. Now with the IPhone screen facing
you, pull the switch forward, "Toward the front of the Phone". The switch
moves forwards and backwards as you'll notice and if pushed back it will
mute the phone.

Paul.

Hi Folks

 

I'm having a problem with voiceover on my IPhone- it will only speak when
there is an incoming call i.e telling me the caller's name but it just won't
speak when I try to read the screen.  The ringer works but the dong  when a
text comes in doesn't  sound either only vibrates.  I have turned it off
completely and re-sinked it.  Also restored it to factory settings and
re-loaded all my data but it still won't read.  Can anyone suggest a remedy?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Geraldine
