Hey Siri privacy issue

When you ask "Hey Siri, what is my phone number" when the phone is locked, Siri will pull up all your phone information. This is a privacy issue.

Based on the quality of his post, I think he could have figured that out.
Considering how easily one can reset passwords with SMS codes, which would appear as notifications, it certainly is a privacy issue.
Notjarj1 is clearly making his contribution to the improvement of iOS. I don't know what you're trying to do.

Hey Siri Problem

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else was occasionally having trouble with "Hey Siri" while using the watch. When I press and old the digital crown, everything works as expected and Siri takes the request. However, when I raise my wrist and say "Hey Siri," Siri will sometimes give up listening immediately with the message of "How may I help you" and a microphone button appears. Other times Siri will just wait patiently until I say something. Has anyone else experienced this? I don't suspect there are any hardware issues as it does work well when Siri does give me the time to state my question. Now I have tried saying "Hey Siri" and immediately stating my question instead of waiting for Siri to listen, and it works every time. It only seems to happen when I say "Hey Siri" and wait for Siri to show that it's listening.
Thanks,
Gabe

Hi Brandon, The button popping up is what I'm referring to. I would assume that whether or not you use use Siri through the crown, or simply say "hey siri", it's probably not supposed to wait to long for a response. However, like your watch, Siri can wait patiently after saying "hey Siri". I've been playing with it more and more, and I can't figure out why I get the microphone button immediately as opposed to other times when Siri will just wait. At first I though it might be do to the sensors seeing movement in my arm, but I can hold the watch in my hand and still see it (once I unlock it and keep it pressed against my hand). I then though it must be related to too either too much noise or too little noise for Siri. However, whether I'm in a quite room or noisey restaurant, I get the same results. I then thought it might be related to connection. But I live quite litterally next to a Verizon tower...... I'm still thinking this might be normal operation or possibly a bug that needs fixed. I just want to put my mind at ease and not continue to think there's something wrong with the watch. I would really hate to go to the Apple Store just to pick up a refurb after spending this much on a new watch.

Adobe Photoshop touch to Mac and back without adobe cloud costs & privacy issues.

How do I transfer files between Adobe Photoshop touch and my adobe creative suite applications on my mackintosh computer? I do not want to pay for additional adobe cloud services. In addition I have concerns over the privacy of adobe's cloud for certain images. As a retired plastic surgeon, I have used Photoshop for years to help with public and patient education. Final posted images can have privacy concerns addressed. I do understand that I can transfer a single layer from Photoshop touch back to the computer by mail or camera roll. procreate has a Photoshop export tool.
Where is Photoshop touches export tool? if the only tool is through the additional monthly charges of the cloud, you are alienating loyal Adobe customers.

Thank you for your help. I have finally figured out and shared my first image. The fear was that I was going to be charged a monthy fee just by using the service. It would be nice if there was a footnote with something to that effect. All I was seeing was the monthy and yearly fees.
Finally found this, boy it was burried.
What happens to my files in the cloud if I cancel my membership?
If you cancel your paid membership you will still have access to the free level of membership, which provides 2GB of storage. You will have a 90-day grace period to delete files to get your cloud storage down to 2GB (or to purchase additional storage separately if you choose). If you leave more than 2GB of files in your cloud storage for more than 90 days, you may lose access to some or all of your files.
Can I access Adobe Creative Cloud without being a paying member?
Yes, there is a free level of membership for anyone who wants to explore Creative Cloud before committing to a paid membership. To sign up for a free membership, go to www.creativecloud.com and follow the instructions to get started.
What do I get with the free level of a Creative Cloud membership?
The free membership will provide you with access to powerful file syncing and sharing features, 2GB of storage space, free levels of Adobe services, and access to 30-day free trials of all CS6 applications and other Adobe desktop applications, such as Adobe Edge preview and Adobe Muse.
I will now try to figure out the privacy issues next. In the non public folder, who other than myself has access to sensitive photos? Trying to read the leagal documents is quite confusing.

When I run Advanced System Care by IoBit I always get many privacy issues that need to be removed from my computer and I would like to have Firefox stop this.

I run Advanced System Care 7 by IoBit on my computer daily. It always finds dozens if not hundreds of privacy issues caused by FireFox that need to be removed. I would like to continue using Firefox but will uninstall it if the program keeps causing so much clutter on my machine. I have a Compaq Presario F730US running Vista Home Premium. I do not want FireFox to place ANY cookies or other items on my computer.

So first off, Advanced system care is a piece of junk. It does nothing to improve computer security or performance, and can actually harm your computer. I strongly suggest you remove any iobit products immediately and find a real anti-virus.
Second, cookies can be controlled. They aren't placed on your computer by Firefox, but by websites. You would find that no matter what browser you use you will have cookies from websites you visit.

Privacy issues with Reader

I work in a library. I cannot get Adobe Reader to show 0 file names. It retains 1 file name -a privacy issue for library patrons. Does anyone know how to change or edit this? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions Jim.
We are continually working to improve our iOS Reader, and we should address several of your requests over the coming year, as well as bringing many other things out. I can't reveal a lot right now, but stay tuned!
Regarding item 6, you are correct. Due to the way that iOS works, there is no way for the Adobe Reader to read or write directly from another app's location, or to remove files from that other app's folder once they have been sent to the Adobe Reader.

Variable Privacy Issue

This is my first post so hi to everyone.
In my program I need to keep the value in some variables when it leaves that class. For example I am running a menu class which gives options. When an option is selected I go to that class and run it. However the values put in the variable need to be stored and kept so that they can be added to in other classes from the menu.
To do this I have done:
private static String wordArray[];
private static int arrayLength;
which allows me to keep the values and add to them.
My question is will this be a privacy issue? Or are they any other issues that will make my program a security risk from doing this?
If so does anyone have any suggestions about others ways to do this? Thanks alot.
P.S: The values only need to be kept for that run of the program. Not stored after the program is quit.

For offsets instead of creating 12 different selection you should give range.
e.g. variable-12 to variable
Restrict -> value ranges -> between
Then select same variable in both from and to input boxes.
Once you transfer it to right and select the offset, it will ask offset two times.
One for - from variable
next for - to variable
Select -12 and 0 respectively.
It should give you prior 12 period offset.
It will increment/decrement according to values of master data. So if you have master data fro 13/2008 then only it will go to that period, otherwise 01/2009 will be selected.

Can I use Hey Siri to silence the alarm after a timer finishes?

I can use Hey Siri to set a timer.
But at the end of the timer, I have to walk over and touch the device to stop the alarm.
Is there any command I can use after Hey Siri to tell the device to stop sounding the alarm?
Before you reply, please note that I am not looking for replies of this type:
I want to know the answer to this too
Gosh that sounds frustrating
Have you tried searching Google
Have you tried rebooting
Take your phone to the Genius Bar
As I have already considered these responses.

If you can add a step to disable backup job start of ETL and enable backup job after ETL completes.
exec msdb..sp_update_job @job_name = 'LS backup Job Name', @enabled = 0 --Disable
exec msdb..sp_update_job @job_name = 'LS backup Job Name', @enabled = 1 --Enable
create a record in a table:
In those line you can create a new job as well which will check record in table if its 0(ETL completed) then enable the backup job and if its 1(ETL running/started) then disable the job. This job will run every 5 mins to check the flag in table. Depending
on ETL status it will enable or disable tlog backup job that way you will be able to resume log shipping without delay.

Just to clarify, it only works when the phone is plugged in and charging. What happens when you try to activate it? Is there any error message?

My laptop becomes slow after incurring privacy issues (118000 in one day) that are noted as being mozilla profiles

I clear my laptop with A S C programme but latest review identified 118000 privacy issues in less than one day. This is a regular problem. Needless to say this overall issue slows my computer down until I clean it up again. The programme I use identifies the privacy issues are down to Mozilla profiles.

Privacy issues for end user

The interactive form I have designed will be completed by people who are very conscious of their privacy. I imagine that most of them will not be happy to email their data, as this leaves easily found "breadcrumbs" on their computer.
Is there any way this data can be sent without going through the email process? Would submitting to a URL overcome this problem, or are there other "privacy issues" for the end user which may come into play?

Thanks Danmaster - after investigation I find I have been using SOAP for some time now. I've just never been conscious of its acronym. So if I have been communicating between applications using a communication protocol I have been using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).
I am starting to think I'm really clever now.
Just because I have been submitting forms through http and then using CGI scripting on the server to convert and email me the results, I never thought that SOAP was such a vital component.
So perhaps the LiveCycle Designer will just allow me to create automatically what I have been hard-coding for years.
I really should have asked that "if the client submits via http through the LiveCycle form, will they be shown any hints that the data has been submitted".
Cheers

Hey Siri Isn't Working

EDIT: Scratch that. It is working now. I just rebooted my phone. After entering my password at startup and waiting a minute, it now works. It seems that rebooting fixed it. But I'll leave the question up in case it can help anyone else.
I updated my iPhone 4S last night to iOS 8 - everything working fine so far as I can tell. Except, Hey Siri isn't working.
Yes, it is plugged in and yes, the plugged in icon is the lightning bolt next to the battery icon at the top right. Yes, Siri works when I just use the button. Yes, the microphone works as I use it to talk to people on the phone all the time with no problem (and also Siri in normal mode which, as I stated, works).
Yes, I turned on the option in General > Siri and "Allow "Hey Siri"" is on (green).
So I'm a little confused. I searched the web and I've seen nobody else have this problem. Is something broken? Is there some other secret setting to set?
It's a 2 month old iPhone 4S, brand new, out of the box, 16gb, and not sure what else to say about it.
If anyone has any clues, please let me know. It's not dramatically bad that it isn't working, but I am wondering why. My iPhone usually stays plugged in next to me at my desk, so it would be useful. But as I can reach it in about 0.1ms flat, it wouldn't be that dramatic if it didn't actually work.
Would be nice though, so please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks.

I had the same problem initially, because I speak next to iphone 4s speakers (bottom). if you put your mouth close to front cam, volume button, etc., "hey siri" will work.

Initiates phone call when I say "hey Siri"

When I am in my car and using Bluetooth, if I say, "Hey, Siri" it initiates a phone call to the last number I dialed. Siri continues to respond, but the phone call continues also. If I end the phone call (that I didn't want to begin with) then Siri ends also. I have upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 5.

It is very possible the vehicle's system will not support this enhancement to Siri. Have you been able to use Siri for other tasks in the vehicle without it initiating a phone call in the past? What happens if you turn off Hey Siri and just try holding down the home button to start Siri, what happens?
