It is the power button that, when pressed 3 times, toggles voiceover off and on. On Jan 26, 2012, at 10:57 AM, Christopher-Mark Gilland wrote: Oh, let me clarify. I wasn't as specific admittedly as I should a been. For one thing, there is no universal access setting. It's settings, then general, accessibility, then voiceover, and you toggle it on/off. No universal access. Having said this though, he lies the problem. It's not that voiceover's not on, I have vo talking and working. My thing is, what I was trying to say was if I tripple click the menu button on the remote to toggle it on/off, that never works for me.

I trippled clicked the menu key on the remote. All I hear are the little bell bloof sounds 3 times and it saying in main menu, top movies. I don't get it. Yeah, the firmware's totally up to date, so, yeah, I'm baffled. This really is somewhat bizarre, or am I missing something here. By tripple clicking, I basically am saying Im doing like you would on an IPod or IPhone with the home key.

May I ask you how the unit is activated so the blind can use it? Is there a key combination that is used to get the unit to talk?
