Re: Setting up an iPhone without iTunes and without sided help
Good idea about the mute switch and the vibrate. I should've thought of that. By the next time I get an iPhone I probably will forget again.

Re: Setting up an iPhone without iTunes and without sided help
Mary, in the past, at that point, where the language choice comes up, even though there was no prompting, the triple click home would turn on voiceOver. I had set up several phones that way without any sighted help at all. I just do not know if that would have worked with iOS 10.

Re: Setting up an iPhone without iTunes and without sided help
Thanks for your offer. I got the phone set up just fine. It's interesting that my husband, who is cited, didn't see anything about skipping anything about VoiceOver turning it on etc. He did some initial set up. Then I turned on voiceover, once the screen was up after the initial set up. Then it I ended up going back and just using my encrypted backup, since it was going to be a fair amount of work to set up the apps like I had them before, and my attempt to get rid of some problems I was having was not successful. So I just use mine crept back up, and everything is OK.

Re: Setting up an iPhone without iTunes and without sided help
I have not set up an iPhone since the 6, but triple clicking home turned on VoiceOver right after the phone powered up. Now, if it has iOS 10 installed by default, that could be the problem. iOS 10 seems to be defaulting with the triple click home on "Ask," because the new magnifier is on. Was iOS 10 already installed? And since you have not been able to turn on Siri, you couldn't have used Siri to turn it on. That will be frustrating.

Setting up an iPhone without iTunes and without sided help
Hi all, I recently got my new iPhone 7 Plus. I decided to start out from scratch, hoping that maybe some of the problems I have been having would go away. So I didn't just plug it into my Mac and go right away from my encrypted backup. I started from scratch. And there was nothing at all telling me about voiceover or letting me turn it on or anything. If my sighted husband had not been there, I would have been out of luck. It's been a while since I've tried setting up a device from scratch. But I thought Apple had a way that would let you turn voiceover on right at the beginning of the process. This was missing. What didn't I do that I should've done? It turned out I went ahead and ended up doing my encrypted backup restoration, since the set up from scratch didn't fix any of the problems I had been having and still have.
