I think it does treat tracks purchased from the iTunes store much like apps in that you can go to "purchased" and then find the radio button that says "not on this computer" and download those purchased tracks to another device. Since I mostly rip CDs that doesn't help me much but the few track

This makes sense, and explains why the devices I have seen don't have triple click home set up. They are phones, so the people in the cell carrier store set things up for the users. Thanks, I'll keep this in mind when and if I get my iPhone5. On Dec 2, 2012, at 7:54 AM, Ricardo Walker wrote: >

Hello, I think this is due to a miss understanding of How, why, and when enabling/disabling Voiceover becomes the default action when triple press of home is used. For example, you said your friend does not use voiceover. This means, they did not use Voiceover to set up their iPad. If this i

Correct. If the phone is configured as a standard device that doesn't use VO, then Triple click home is not configured by default. The triple click has to be the first thing you do on the device after the screen comes up. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

When you tried to perform the triple press of home, did your mother, sister, or a person at the place where they bought there device already set it up? If so, this is probably why Voiceover didn't come on when you tried triple pressing the home button. Sent from my iPad On Dec 1, 2012, at 5:2

I hope it does work then. My mom got an iPhone5, and my friend and sister both got the 4s, and triple click home did nothing on any of them. Yes, it is supposed to be enabled by default, but experience has shown me that it is not always actually done that way. On Dec 1, 2012, at 4:37 PM, Stacey
