Re: Should Reebooting an iPhone 4 cause loss of VoiceOver
If memory serves, my brother got a message saying the app wasn't compatible when he tried to restore from an iPhone 4 to the new iPad. He has a flashlight app on the iPhone that wouldn't work with the iPad; thus, although other apps were restored, that one wasn't. Oh, yes, I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 6 over the air, and I, too, lose VoiceOver when I have to do the power and home button reset. Thus, although I thought I was through with it for good, I had to install iTunes to get VoiceOver working again. - Original Message - From: David Chittenden dchitten...@gmail.com To: viphone@googlegroups.com viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Sat, 6 Oct 2012 09:06:46 +1300 Subject: Re: Should Reebooting an iPhone 4 cause loss of VoiceOver Yes, as far as I know, you can restore from any iOS device to any other iOS device.

Yes, it is definitely better to upgrade the firmware using a computer rather than over the air.

Re: Should Reebooting an iPhone 4 cause loss of VoiceOver
Kathy, I cannot imagine why this process has been difficult for you. Especially now with over the air updates, the process is much easier. I assume you are following the typical steps of first backing up your phone and then performing the update over the air?

RE: Should Reebooting an iPhone 4 cause loss of VoiceOver
I decided to reboot my four today to see what happened and, sure enough, Voice Over left the building. LOL. Fortunately, since this happened shortly after I got my phone a few years ago, I knew what to do. You have to attach the phone to your computer, go into iTunes, click on configure universal access, and check Voice Over. I don't know why it is doing it and am going to try again when I have a few minutes to play if it leaves town again, but, this is how I fixed the problem. Hope this helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.
