Hi Gigi, there is another Google group called VIPhone that deals strictly with voice over issues on the iPhone ,iPad, and iPod Touch.
There is a lot of very helpful and friendly advice there. here is a link: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/viphone You may also want to look around for free iPhone training in your area.
