How do I activate dictation on my iPad?

How do I activate dictation.  It is on my phone but not my iPad

There is no dictation then.

On the new iPad, during setup, did you answer yes when it asked if ou wanted to use dictation?

If not, is settings-keyboards-dictation set to on?

If yes, when he keyboard is displayed, press the microphone button set in between he numbers key and space key.

Talk, when finished hit the enlarged button.

Do you have the new iPad or iPad 2?

If new iPad, there's a microphone key on the on-screen keyboard.

 Cheers, Tom

I have the iPad 2. Is that the problem?

Thanks, John

There is no dictation then.

I have a new 3rd gen iPad, and there is no Dictation button on my keyboard.  I cannot find any keyboard settings in the menu.  I'm not sure how to turn this feature on either.....and I should have it

As above, did you activate it when you set up your new iPad? If not go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Dictation = ON.

Thank you I was just returning here to report I found the issue...thanks for the info anyway

The "General" part of your description, missing from the one above, was what was messing me up.

I can't find an enable dictation setting either on my 4S or iPad2.  However, several apps do have a dictation icon.  In particular I use Evernote increasingly as my holdall for notes, vital information etc and if I'm in too much of a hurry to enter an appointment (for example, when at the dentist) I can dictate a note into evernote and transfer it later.

i did just that and there still isnt a microphone showing up on my keyboard. What do you think could be the issue? Does the version of iTunes that I have matter?

For the iPhone you need to go to settings-general-Siri. As for the iPad 2 it does not support dictation.

Well there is no 'intelligent' speech to text dictation on the iPad2, but you CAN dictate simple audio notes into it.  As I said, I do just that using Evernote, where there is a microphone icon on the screen.

I have a new iPad (3rd gen). At setup, I can't remember having been asked to activate "Dictation".

In Settings > General > Keyboard there's no "Dictation" switch.

I've restarted my new iPad a couple of times to no avail. Any ideas as to why it doesn't work for me?

I restored my iPad 2 backup onto my new iPad. Could that be the cause?

Okaaayyy... I found out what was wrong. It was my keyboard choice. It was set to French (Switzerland) as I am Swiss. But only the standard French keyboard is supported. I cannot use that.

Problem (kinda) solved. Hopefully Apple will support all keyboard languages in future.

Macounette,

Merci votre réponse m'a aidé
