RE: VO Not speaking When Earphones Not Plugged In

[Vivian Conger]

Thanks to this list, My VO issue has been resolved and no need to go to one of 
the busiest Apple Stores I’ve ever been to.  My Son was glad we didn’t need to 
go too.

 

Thanks again all.

Getting Voiceover to read continuously is actually not necessary, as long as 
you can unlock your phone pressing the volume up button will do the trick. Just 
make sure you press it, let go, press it, let go etc. Pressing and holding it 
will not raise the volume, you have to press it like 10 or 12 times.

Thanks so much for this too.  I kept trying to increase the volume without it 
going passed a very low volume.  Your tip worked beautifully.

 

This is a terrific group.

Hi Vivian,

Please try the following:
One. Navigate over to your home screen. Then, be sure to unplug your headphones.
Two. Flick or swipe up with two fingers to make VoiceOver start reading all the 
elements on the screen.
Three now, start pushing the volume up button and you should slowly start to 
hear the voice reading the elements and that should fix your issue.
Hope that helps.

Hi All,

 

I am using an iPhone 7 and OS 10.32.

 

Does anyone know a solution to VO not speaking unless headphones are plugged 
in?  This started yesterday afternoon and was never an issue before.

 

Things that I have tried include:

 

Shutting down the phone and powering back up.

 

Going through Settings and turning VO off and back on.

 

Turning Siri off and back on.

 

Fully charging the phone overnight.

 

VO works just fine with headphones attached.

 

Siri works just fine with and without headphones plugged in.

 

I’m not even able to update to 11 as I need to have the headphones plugged in 
to use VO and, as far as I know, it is recommended to have the phone plugged 
into power when installing the update.

 

I will try to get to the Apple store today as I’m where there is one.  Once I 
leave here tomorrow morning, I won’t have access to an Apple Store.  Of course 
there are no available appointments at the Geneous Bar.

 

Any assistance would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

I will go and see if I can change the volume more but at least I know VO works

Three now, start pushing the volume up button and you should slowly start to

Hi All,

 

I am using an iPhone 7 and OS 10.32.

 

Does anyone know a solution to VO not speaking unless headphones are plugged 
in?  This started yesterday afternoon and was never an issue before.

 

Things that I have tried include:

 

Shutting down the phone and powering back up.

 

Going through Settings and turning VO off and back on.

 

Turning Siri off and back on.

 

Fully charging the phone overnight.

 

VO works just fine with headphones attached.

 

Siri works just fine with and without headphones plugged in.

 

I’m not even able to update to 11 as I need to have the headphones plugged in 
to use VO and, as far as I know, it is recommended to have the phone plugged 
into power when installing the update.

 

I will try to get to the Apple store today as I’m where there is one.  Once I 
leave here tomorrow morning, I won’t have access to an Apple Store.  Of course 
there are no available appointments at the Geneous Bar.

 

Any assistance would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

I don't know why it is doing this, quite honestly, I figured it was just my 
iPhone 6, it is getting old. But when it does it, take it away from your ear, 
and if I can use this word in conjunction with a phone, caress the place that 
goes against your ear a couple times quickly, and it will force the sensor that 
is supposed to sense that the phone is against your ear to switch back to the 
earpiece, and it should stay this time. I'm about to the point of doing this 
caress before I even put it to my ear the first time, hoping it won't do that 
switching in the middle of a call.   I have more of a problem having it not 
switch to the earpiece in the beginning.

RE: VO Not speaking When Earphones Not Plugged In

[Vivian Conger]

Thanks so much for this too.  I kept trying to increase the volume without it 
going passed a very low volume.  Your tip worked beautifully.

 

This is a terrific group.

Hi Vivian,

Please try the following:
One. Navigate over to your home screen. Then, be sure to unplug your headphones.
Two. Flick or swipe up with two fingers to make VoiceOver start reading all the 
elements on the screen.
Three now, start pushing the volume up button and you should slowly start to 
hear the voice reading the elements and that should fix your issue.
Hope that helps.

You may want to check the VO volume setting itself, but also under settings, 
sounds, make sure that change with buttons is off.

Re: VO Not speaking When Earphones Not Plugged In

The volume of VO through the speaker and headphones are two separate settings. 
When VO is supposed to be talking through the speaker, press the up volume 
button several times to see if you can begin to hear it. Sometimes, the speaker 
volume gets turned down for no apparent reason.
