I received a new rii bluetooth keyboard with backlight on friday, I knew this keyboard worked well with voice over thanks to many comments I've read on applevis and other places. My wife has one as well and I had no problem working with it on my phone or Ipod However, I'm thinking I might have set some kind of mode I can't get out of on the new one, I can get the roader to work but none of the voice over commands work at all. The keyboard seems to work ok, I'm not sure if there is a way I can reset it back to default or what I need to do to fix things, any help would be appreciated.

Could it be that you just need to disable quicknav by pressing the left and right arrows together? Have you paired a different keyboard with that same iDevice to see if the problem is specifically the keyboard? I've never heard of this happening before, but I suppose it's possible.

Hi Scott I did try toggling quicknav, hooked the keyboard to my iPod and an old 3gs and got the same results. Tried my wifes rii keyboard she bought a couple of years ago on them both and it had no problem. I definitely havn't sceen this issue before. I don't have the box anymore but would send back if I did, lol.
