Hi Simon, Congratulations on your new Nano 4G. Setting this up is pretty straightforward.
As I recall, when you connect your iPod Nano 4G for the first time, VoiceOver calls the area where you register your iPod "unknown". Just VO-right arrow from your sources table past the splitter to the unknown area and interact. At this point everything should become accessible. There will be a welcome message and you'll be prompted to register your iPod. Once you've gone through the registration, you'll set up your iPod by specifying its name (e.g. "Simon's iPod") and there's a checkbox if you want to automatically sync songs. After the initial setup this location turns into iPod Settings and is a scroll area that shows up when the iPod device is selected in the sources table. The summary tab will automatically have the box checked to enable spoken menus if VoiceOver is on when you connect your new Nano. You can either manually manage your music or sync only checked songs and videos, which is easier. Make up playlists for content you want transferred, and then check the playlists you want to sync on the Music tab. The playlists you can check are in a scrolling table, so you may need to start scrolling (VO-Shift-S) and use your down arrow key every 7 or 8 lines then escape to stop scrolling, in order to check boxes for playlist entries that extend beyond the visible table area. You might want to set up your text-to-speech options (Voice, rate, etc.) under System Preferences (VO-M and navigate to System Preferences in the Apple Menu) in the Speech menu before connecting your iPod, since these will be used for the spoken menus until you resync. You can also download the User's Guide for the iPod Nano 4G from Apple's support manuals page: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_nano_4th_gen_UserGuide.pdf Cheers, Esther On Mar 29, 2009, at 11:19 PM, Simon Fogarty wrote: > > Hi listers. > > I've just purchased myself a 16gig ipod nano 4gen, and I want to > setup the > voice guidance / speak menus option that is available for it. > > Can anyone tell me if there is something to enable on the actual ipod? > > The accessibilitys page for apples website says the feature is > turned on / > enabled on / in itunes.
