Dear Famus & List: Try sending e-mail to supp...@apple.com <mailto:supp...@apple.com> or accessibil...@apple.com <mailto:accessibil...@apple.com> . Apple may be willing to telephone you from the U. S. A. It is worth trying, may save you an inconvenient and expensive Safari to the Apple store. Area code 800 in the USA/Canada is for toll-free numbers. however, they usually do not work from other countries. There is an 800-country code, presumably for toll-free numbers which work from several countries or worldwide. I do not know of any such numbers. The staff in the tuck shop in my former apartment building in Scarborough in the east of Toronto used to try teaching me Swahili, their native language. Sincerely, Brian K. .

I shall have to plan to get to the instore where I purchased the iPad. I used to be a huge apple supporter but this time I am very disappointed because none of the suggestions on the apple support site solved the problem.

Thee aps may not be compatible with Voiceover, which is odd, as they are made by Apple, which also makes Voiceover. Call Apple Accessibility at (800) 204-3930. They know their products and have them available to see if they can duplicate your problem. Brian K.

I downloaded Audible, Kindle, Playgrounds, and a few others from the app store. All apps which I download do work. It is just most of the built-in apps which refuse to download and open.

This sounds like something is up with your internet connection. Or, there is an issue with the wifi antenna in the iPad. I don't remember where you live if you can call Apple Accessibility and have them do a diagnostic.

After setting up a new iPad mini 5 only a few apps open. When highlighting some apps voiceover says "loading" and some say "waiting" but when I double tap, I get the message that I must try later. I am not near the instore where I purchased the mini so I hope someone can suggest a solution. I did a reset, I signed out with my apple ID, I tried to setup connecting to a pc but none of these solves the problem. Regards Fanus
