Voiceover not getting enabled on iPhone 3gs
Hello list: I just restored the phone to factory default settings and can get VoiceOver enabled. I connected the phone to iTunes and let it sync. I then located the phone in the source table, interacted with the scroll area, pressed the universal access button, made sure that the VoiceOver radio button was selected and pressed ok. I then synced the phone again. Still no VoiceOver. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Hello Doug, Perhaps the volume on your iOS device has been turned all the way down. Just a thought.

I've got it fixed and here is what I did. It turns out if you press the Universal Access Button and find that the VoiceOver radio button is selected, then press ok VoiceOver will not get turned on on the device. 1. Connect the phone to itunes and let it sync. 2. Find the iPhone in the source list and interact with the scroll area. 3. Press the Configure Universal access button. 4. If the voiceover radio button is selected, select none and then press ok. 5. Press the Universal Access button again. 6. Select The VoiceOver radio button and then press ok. 7. You should now get a message from iTunes saying that VoiceOver will change the jesters on your phone or something like that. Press ok again. VoiceOver now should come back on.

Re: Voiceover not getting enabled on iPhone 3gs
Hi Doug, Good to hear you've got this working, and thanks for posting the solution. This is worth saving. I was trying to look up the instructions Grant Hardy posted on the viphone list two weeks ago, but you got the answer before I could post. The relevant steps were changing the radio button for VoiceOver under configuring Universal Access first to None and then switching it back to VoiceOver (your steps 4-6) in order to get this to register when you sync in iTunes. Unfortunately, the viphone doesn't have the Mail Archive search functions, so it takes me longer to locate things I've read and recall on that list. The relevant part of Grant's post pasted in: begin quote Now, if you're checking VoiceOver and nothing's happening, try the following. First turn off VoiceOver by selecting the 'neither' option. Close the dialog to save your changes, then reopen it and reselect VoiceOver. At this point you should get a prompt that VoiceOver will change the gestures you use to control the iPhone, etc. and do you want to continue. If you don't get that dialog, then you know VoiceOver isn't being turned on correctly. end quote Cheers, Esther On Jul 6, 2011, at 10:38, Doug Lawlor wrote: I've got it fixed and here is what I did.
