In System Preferences select Accessibility.
In the Left-Hand Column please select VoiceOver and then Tick the checkbox next to Enable VoiceOver.
1. You will now receive a Welcome to VoiceOver Message.
To enable VoiceOver - tick Enable VoiceOver.
1. To not see this message again - Tick the checkbox next to Do Not Show This Message Again.
2. VoiceOver should now be turned on.

To Turn Off VoiceOver , repeat steps One to Three but this time Un-Tick the checkbox next to Enable VoiceOver.
