If you can get Siri to turn on VoiceOver, you can go into it, and the first option after Heading is About. Double-tap on about, and do an Olusegun thing; explore. Try single tapping with one, then two, then three, then four fingers, then double and so on. It will tell you what that means. Whenever you want out, just hit Home button or press the Side button, as I don't know how new it is, probably press the button at the right side near the top. Then, double tap it to get to App Switcher; swipe up with three fingers to close Settings where Siri took you to, plus you also went to General, then Accessibilities and finally to VoiceOver.
Then check applevis.com to try to find a list of VoiceOver commands, and if you don't find them, there will be a phone number for Apple Accessibility, where you can call, and they'll email them to you. Actually, if you want them, write me off list:

And I will send them along with other stuff about how to use an iPhone, some of which would apply to the tablet.

hi all. so my brother who is sighhted purchased the latest ipad mini. he installed ipad os 13 beta on it. i have never used voiceover in my life and wanted to practice voice so that i can purchase the ipad for me also. so i am going to ask a lot of questions. 1. is there a way to start voiceover without sighted help? 2. is there a guide that compares voice over jestures with that of talkback? 3. is there a guide that tells us about different voiceover jestures? 4. can you recomend podcasts or mailing lists to learn more about voiceover.

Re: purchased a new ipad want to learn voice over.

To answer your first question, yes, you can set up something that will allow you to turn voiceover on or off without sighted assistance. Go to settings, general, accessibility and find accessibility shortcut at the bottom of the screen. This shortcut lets you triple press the home button to turn an accessibility feature, such as voiceover or zoom, on or off. A good way to practice voiceover gestures is to go into the voiceover section of accessibility menu and locate voiceover practice, a feature you can use to practice gestures.

Re: Clearing a laptop
hi Gene
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
i will reply to you line by line. I would expect the Windows old folder can be deleted. And what are the ramifications of doing either of these things? Do you have to look for drivers, is the effect the same except for the Windows old folder? if you do a disk cleanup and then select clean up system files option this sometimes removes the entire windows.old folder but mostly removes 75% of it. if you do a reset or refresh or if you do a clean install you dont have to look for any driver, windows update does it all for you unless you have a really really old laptop or desktop. if you reinstall windows 10 from a dvd when the installer asks for a product key say i dont have a product key. you should know which eddition of windows 10 you have. after telling the installer i dont have a product key select the eddition of windows 10 which was previously installed on your laptop and as soon as your laptop connects to internet and checks for updates windows will request if this laptop was activated before and as the laptop had a licenced version of windows the servers at microsoft will activate windows for you. if you have a laptop which came with windows 8 out of the box it wont even ask for licence key as the licence key is in the uefi so it will get the key and select the right eddition from there. yes some laptops have a restore to factory feature but its totally inaccessible and we need sighted help and again it may keep the windows.old folder.

Re: Clearing a laptop
Gene
These are questions and comments I have about the
message quoted below mine.
I would expect the Windows old folder can be
deleted. And what are the ramifications of doing either of these
things? Do you have to look for drivers, is the effect the same except for
the Windows old folder? If you are talking about reinstalling from a copy
of Windows, such as on a DvD, if the only difference is the Windows Old folder,
I would think that that would be more work, and possibly the expense of buying
another copy of windows.
Also, I don't use Windows 10 but I suspect that the
laptop, aside from whatever Windows itself provides, has a return to factory
state option. That would seem to me to be the best thing to do so you have
the computer In its factory state, with whatever drivers were on the computer
originally and perhaps whatever proprietary utilities were provided. Then
if you want to get rid of old information, running a program that overwrites the
part of the hard disk not taken up by the operating system.

Re: Clearing a laptop
Gene
Do you know the person you are selling it to and
whether that person has any criminal tendencies? I doubt that reinstalling
Windows or doing the restore or whatever it is called procedure you asked about
will remove data from the hard drive such as your personal files. If it
does what deleting files usually does, the files won't be accessible to the
computer, but someone who wants to spend a lot of money or with the right
technical knowledge can recover them. There are programs that actually
overwrite the information and make it unrecoverable. I'll let others
discuss such programs further.

Re: success with Fire Fox
Gene
I'm not sure what you are asking about
searching. Control is the command to move you to the address bar to type
an address. You don't need to make Google your home page if you just want
to use it for searching and don't care what else is on the page. Use the
command control k and you will be in an area of the window where you type a
search and press enter. You can see, but I believe the default is to
search using Google and a page of results will come up. It will be a
Google results page. If it isn't, if it is
something like a Bing results page, that can be changed to Google, but I'd
have to look at Firefox to see how to change it.

Subject: [TechTalk] success with Fire Fox I just wanted to thank you all for helping me with Fire Fox. It's working great. I had no trouble downloading and when I launched it, it asked me if I wanted to make it my default browser and I clicked on it. I didn't have to do all of the things that I needed to do for chrome. It also reads Facebook just like IE. I'm thrilled about that. I have one more question, is there any settings that I need to know about? I am very simple. I just enter web pages by typing in the addresses and I don't use bookmarks. I couldn't just hit Control L to search. It actually said where to search so I didn't have to type Control L. Is there any way I can get rid of that and I can just type it in as normal? I never had to set Chrome or IE so just wondered if this was any different. This is brand new to me. Now for my final question, what are the commands to make google my home page? I tried the commands in Chrome but it didn't work. Thanks again for everything. Shelly

Re: Chromebook help
Josh Kennedy <joshknnd1982@...>
it is interesting that both chromeBook and iOS have great braille support outside of android apps of course, but that android phone and android tablet braille support are horrible. I use braille a lot, so iOS and windows are my platforms of choice for braille. I started unloading apps off my android phone because I find most times their iOS equivalents work better for me. a few apps I keep on my android phone though, just for convenience.

Re: Think Twice Before Installing the Latest Windows 10 Update
Josh Kennedy <joshknnd1982@...>
Or depending on what you do with your computer, maybe just get an iPad for $250 off amazon? I got an iPod touch and find that voiceover is much more stable and snappier than talkback is. So my android phone will be just for phone calls, texting, maybe facebook and messenger and I will use the iPod for everything else including games.

book. It's called "a world of chromebooks", and is available on their website at: www.mysticaccess.com. Go to their free downloads link. They are also in the process of producing a full-fledged tutorial covering the chrome book. This will be available on September 16. If you've ever used their tutorials you will know they are very well done. I purchased an acer chrome book last week. It has 4 gig of ram, which is standard, and 64 gig of storage. It's kind of cool. I'm not sure if I'll ever replace my windows pc with one, but they're great to have as they are light and easy to toss in an overnight bag while travelling. Aside from surfing the net and email, you can do word processing, spread sheets and slide presentations using the google suite. Also, some of the android apps will run on them. I have already installed Netflix, spotify and dolphin easy reader.
