IPhone 5s :: Siri Knows Relationships But Doesn't Find Any Numbers
Sep 4, 2014
I loved to tell Siri to call my wife/spouse, write a message to my brother and so on. But since a few weeks, don't know exactly since when, Siri keeps telling me, that she doesn't find a phone number or email address for abc (where abc is the name of my brother, wife, child, etc) although my contact information is set in the Siri settings and all the relations are given to my contact.
As mentioned in the community, I've turned off Siri, reset my iPhone and turned on Siri again. I've deleted all relations in my contact and set them up again. Someone suggested to delete middle names from all contacts, but I'my not using middle names. So, nothing fixed the issue yet. Â
I have carefully entered the name and address for a store where I frequently shop. I told Siri to remind me to pick up coffe when I arrive at Trader Joe. Siri replies that she cannot find Trader Joe in my contacts. How can I make this super reminder function work?
Whenever I carried my iPhone in a pant pocket it would inadvertently activate voice control and take any further noise or touch as a command to dial the most recently dialed number. I know that this normally happens when the home button is pressed for a few seconds.Â
Yet, after I had disabled Siri, set the screen to lock, plus I had the code protection in place, Siri would still start up and dial phone numbers.Â
The only solution, that I have found in this forum, is to enable Siri, enable code protection and then disable Siri in the code protection menu. This is not acceptable.Â
It used to, but no longer can for whatever reason. I lost all my contact info, but have since synced and brought them all back in. I have 4s/5.1. The relationship field is no longer avail when editing contacts. If I ask siri, it will say sorry.
I can't find Siri on my iphone 4s. I tried everything from turning on siri on General Settings to resetting factory settings, still, couldn't find siri. Also, I tried pressing Home button for 1 minute but keypad for text messaging will appear. My phone was bought from China, its label on the back says from calif and assembled in China.
Siri can't find or doesn't know where or what The Grand Canyon National Park is, or the Mojave Nation Preserve or Yellow Stone National Park or a host of other well know national parks. Is there a fix or a work around for this? Funny since Siri will gladly look up the distance to the planet Neptune but she is completely clueless about National Parks?
I got a new iPhone 5c a few days ago. I remembered seeing the Siri options when I was first setting up my phone. I didn't choose anything at the time. Now I can't find them at all under the "General" menu.Â
I have the iPhone 4s and Siri does't understand my voice . I don'T have an accent. I'm in Colorado usa. I tried speaking slowly or with regular speed, with or without background noise, to no avail. The words she thinks I'm saying are random names from my address book that don't sound anything like the actual words I'm saying?
In any other app on iOS i can click-and-hold the home button, or the "clicker" on my headphones, and I get the little "beep boop" of Siri. And I can say "what time is it?" or "call David."Â
But when I'm listening to a podcast in the podcast app, that doesn't work. It just doesn't. And it hasn't for 2 OSs now.Â
Maybe it's just the way I'm saying it, but I can't seem to get Siri to add a time to any reminders outside of the default list. Every time I try, she either adds it to the wrong list with the time, or to the right list without a time.
When asking siri to find a local pub or restaurant or maps it's says it can only find USA and under stand American voice when is the date when it will work in the uk, cause I don't want to get rid of my apple products got many apple devices and live them
How Do I find a phone number quickley?On the old phone I could select a letter and the phone contacts would go to the first letter I selected. Example if I select a J the contacts would start with Johnson.
I recently bought a new Nokia E5 and so far i love it. i have my previous network's SIM card and i want to "find" and save all my freinds' numbers onto my E5.
How do I remove a 'wife' from iPhone. I told Siri that my partner was my wife then I married her and changed her contact details and now Siri thinks I have two wives and asks which one when I ask Siri to call or send a message.
