This is the safer official way, there was a common suggestion that has finally gone away, that did put the system at risk, though few complained of it trashing them. I've done this, but it can put VO off.

If this is an illegal powering down of the iPod, this of course risks the stability of the OS. Also, this process Chris suggested does not result in a restart of my iPod Touch 5th gen with VoiceOver talking. At this point I have no sound and have no idea what my iPod is doing. Guess I should have waited for more feedback before taking action on the suggestion--especially since I know better. :) Joseph ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D." <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, August 30, 2013 4:44 PM Subject: RE: How to "Reboot" an IOS Device Does this still run the risk in some devices of turning off VO? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chris H Sent: Friday, August 30, 2013 6:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: How to "Reboot" an IOS Device Press and hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together for at least ten seconds.
