Thank you very much for your response. I'm sorry to sound so dense, but I have no idea how I'd go about trying either of those options. Making a separate library sounds like it might be what I want, but I'm open to trying the unchecking of Christmas stuff too if that's easier. Instructions for

Hi guys. Yes, I did tell Apple Care people, both of them, that I was using VoiceOver. It's real weird that you say that about this being a VoiceOver feature because my sighted husband, at least before he updated to IOS 5 was annoyed sometimes when the phone went to speaker phone when he didn't
