Hi all,
VoiceOver has started using a different voice on certain items on my iPhone
screen. For example, when I swipe to a search field, VoiceOver announces a
text field as usual but then I hear the word "Search". The word search is
spoken in a much lower pitch and the voice is slightly
It is the three step process. 1. up volume, 2, down volume, and you want to do
those two fairly quickly; then 3, hold the power button without also holding
either volume button.
It will take at least 6 to 10 seconds before the power off message goes away
and it starts the reboot process.
HTH,
Hi Richard,
Do I hold the up-and-down volumes at the same time while holding the power

I understood it doesn't show up in Bluetooth, but it shouldn't show up in

I guess the next thing would be to try just reseting network settings.

There is a free Apple book for using Numbers. You can get it using the Books

What I've done is, if you can figure out what app is playing the music, go into
that app then remove it from the app switcher. I've found that if I paus stuff
before doing the removal, I haven't had a problem. Just that I generally
forget to do it. Hell getting old.

Yes, if the person on the other end of your call hangs up before you do the two
finger double tap then IOS will think you want to start up your music again,
since it doesn't think you're on the phone any more. I either do a really
quick two finger double tap to hang up, or I wait a bit to see
Sherry and All,
If you want to check what will start playing if you do a two finger double tap
or magic tap, go to your home screen, place focus on the top status bar and do
a three finger swipe up to open the Control center. You can then single finger
swipe right until you hear Media

Hi,
This usually happens when you use a "magic tap", which is a 2-finger double
tap. I am guessing that when you tried the 3-finger double tap, it registered
as a 2-finger double tap. When music starts to play, simply do another 2-finger
double tap and it should stop.

Hello,
Normally a two finger double tap will start and stop music playback.
Perhaps your device registered your doing a two finger double tap and hence
music started playing.
Hope that helps.

What the iPhone registered when you thought you did a 3-finger double tap was a
2-finger double tap which is the so-called "magic tap" which works as
Play/Pause or to answer a call when your phone rings or to hang up when you are
done.

Not unless you've iOS13 and up can this be done. Also it depends on if the
