I found the exact same thing with the iPod Touch 5th Generation today. I'm sticking with the tapping the power button six times quickly to cause a reboot. Those of you who roll their eyes at such things can roll them silently please. It works, it doesn't cause VoiceOver to turn off and default to

I've never had the problem, but it doesn't seem likely that they don't care about that, since it seems like it only happens to a small number of users. Saying that apple doesn't care about something based on one support reps response is a bit far fetched to me. -Original Message- From:

Another issue with IOs 6. I think that apple is doing something wrong with the last updates. I have problems with my BT keyboards, problems that I didn't see with the older versions of IOs. I have problems with labels, when I didn't see with the olders IOs. I have problems with the VO focus ,

new braille display and bluetooth keyboard commands in iOS 6
