I have precisely the same problem with headings . This and other unpredictability's , including constraints on copying amounts of text to one paragraph, is why I never ever recommend the VO Enter method of copying from web pages. It is excessively clunky also in terms of keystrokes. The other sel

Yeah there is a way to reset everything. When in VoiceOver utility, go into the file menu and there's a reset option. From there you can reset the custom settings to default settings, reset all settings and other such things. Hth. Sent from my iPhone On May 3, 2013, at 4:54 AM, "David Griffit

Hi, Yes, you can. I have just tested the feature, and it works very well indeed. You can write notes, and later go to them easily. The one thing it doesn't seem to do is to announce notes as you read continuously, which could probably get a little jarring. HOpe this helps, Zack. On May 3, 2013,
