    Hello Beckman061,

     

    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 4.  It sounds like you may have VoiceOver enabled.  There are a couple of ways you can turn this off. 

     

    First, I recommend trying the following to turn off VoiceOver:

    Press the home button three times quickly. This is also called "Triple-click Home".

     

    You can also turn off VoiceOver using iTunes:

     

    Managing accessibility features using iTunes

    1. Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to any computer with iTunes installed.
    2. In iTunes, select your device.
    3. From the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access in the Options section at the bottom.
    4. Select the feature you would like to use and click OK.
