HI,
This just happened to me for the first time since the upgrade to 6. i have
reset before with no problems. I discovered that voiceover was turned on but
triple click home was off . I had to tturn triple click home to VO before all
was well again. I should say that although I do have a
I can confirm this. In i o s 5.1.1 this was not happening. When I beta
tested the i o s 6, i did send this to Apple. Apparently, they did not
have time to fix this. Please send more of your reports to
accessibil...@apple.com

I reset my phone yesterday using both the home and power button, then
restarted it and had voiceover, it is a $s running IOS 6.

I sent a message to Apple and they wrote back telling me, in effect, don't use
home and power button to reboot the phone. I only did this when I could not
get things straightened out. I think more people need to report this unless
they have done this on purpose.

It does not work. I thought I wrecked my phone when I did it.

I had not rebooted for almost three weeks when it happened to me. I also had
nothing attached to the phone.

To the last trill? Does this do the same thing as holding until turn off

I have to agree I have not lost VO as a result of using this reset technique.

David,
I have to admit that I have not used this reboot procedure more than maybe a
couple of times, yet I have not encountered this issue. So, is there any
particular pattern to reproducing the problem? FOr example, rebooting
repeatedly (within a period of time) such as maybe every five
Scott,
I have not yet been able to figure out any patterns yet. I managed to make it
lose VO again by having my braille display connected when I did the power home
reboot. The most annoying thing is that the rotors are both set back to factory
defaults each time VO is switched off. Also,
I have lost VO only once by using this reset, and that was because I got
distracted and ended up holding it for about twenty seconds. I think there is a
timing limit. However, with both the Ipad 3 and the iPhone 5, VO can be brought
back with the tripple-click of the home key. I got an iPad 3
To be warned here though, you must do this triple click home on the welcome
screen of each of the devices. Pressing the home key negates this
functionality.

Ah, thanks Jeff, that makes sense.
Could we talk about the maps feature sometime?

David,
The one thing you stated that caught my attention is regarding the Braille
display being connected. So, this problem does not occur provided the display
is not connected? If so, that is something and certainly worth reporting to
APple.

Yes, as soon as I confirm this is the cause.

David,
That is very bizarre indeed and certainly shouldn't be happening by
design. Sounds like a bug that should be reported to Apple
accessibility. Do you ever lose VoiceOver when rebooting your phone
normally?
Also, not to get into a whole debate about resets and crashes again,
but I don't
Yes, I was attempting to create the reported problem. Now that I have, I will
re upgrade my iPhone 5 to reset it to factory values.

Unless you get hit by this quite rare bug. VO is literally completely reset to
factory defaults and triple-click home is switched off. It's hard to duplicate
though.

I wrote to accessibil...@apple.com and was told that the hard re-set,
holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons at the same time, does indeed
result in loss of VoiceOver and does so by design. In order to get VoiceOver
back, you must either get sighted help or connect the phone to a computer
I have used holding the power button and home button to reset the iPhone and
iPad many times and I havne't lost VO ever. Maybe reset is not the proper
phrase as we are not technically resetting any settings, but rather just
clearing out memory cobwebs on the phone or pad.
At any rate, I
Hey Kathy, this definitely shouldn't be the case. Doing a reset in the
manner you described simply forces the phone to reboot. It shouldn't
reset any of your settings.
To be safe though, I'd recommend popping into
Settings/General/Accessibility/Tripple click home, and setting the
tripple click
