When you tried to perform the triple press of home, did your mother, sister, or a person at the place where they bought there device already set it up? If so, this is probably why Voiceover didn't come on when you tried triple pressing the home button. Sent from my iPad On Dec 1, 2012, at

Correct. If the phone is configured as a standard device that doesn't use VO, then Triple click home is not configured by default. The triple click has to be the first thing you do on the device after the screen comes up. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Hello, I think this is due to a miss understanding of How, why, and when enabling/disabling Voiceover becomes the default action when triple press of home is used. For example, you said your friend does not use voiceover. This means, they did not use Voiceover to set up their iPad. If this

This makes sense, and explains why the devices I have seen don't have triple click home set up. They are phones, so the people in the cell carrier store set things up for the users. Thanks, I'll keep this in mind when and if I get my iPhone5. On Dec 2, 2012, at 7:54 AM, Ricardo Walker

It seems to vary, but triple click home is not a guarantee, unfortunately. Have your mac on hand just in case, or just have a sighted person help you; it's only a few seconds, after all, then you're off and running. Since you already have an iPhone, you will be fine with most of the gestures

Stacy, Triple click home worked fine when we opened up our iPad Minis. It may take a bit, but it does work by default on all IOS products now. When my wife and I got our iPad Minis, it went without a hitch. Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

I hope it does work then. My mom got an iPhone5, and my friend and sister both got the 4s, and triple click home did nothing on any of them. Yes, it is supposed to be enabled by default, but experience has shown me that it is not always actually done that way. On Dec 1, 2012, at 4:37 PM, Stacey

I actually noticed that myself, so glad I'm not alone. I just found out a friend. Of mine has an IPad which she's still learning to use, and doesn't use VoiceOver. I've never used an IPad before so got frustrated with it quickly, especialy when I somehow turned the speech off and triple
