How do I get Siri to work on my 4S

I picked up my 4s last night after a ridiculously long wait at UPS. I can't help but wonder if Siri isn't supposed to do something other than say "Sorry, X, something is wrong. Please try again."

Someone suggested turning Siri off, then on again. However, what it got working for me was a reset of the phone.

Bama, you're going to have to do a little of this work for yourself.

If not connected to the Internet, either through WiFi or 3G, you can't.

HT204389 How do I get Siri to work after updating to iOS 7.1?

After updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 7.1, SIRI is no longer working. Siri worked perfectly prior to software update and the phone is in mint condition.

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

HT4993 How do I get siri to work on my phone?

I am sure I have the iPhone 4s but I don't see siri on it and I am unable to recalabrate the voice command.

Siri is a seperate application than voice commands. You need to have voice commands turned OFF and Siri turned on. Too see if you have Siri do this... touch Settings> General>...at this point you should see a list of things to touch in this order About
                                          Software Update
                                          Usage
If you have Siri the next tab you should see would be
                                         Siri
touch on its tab and turn its features on and there are other options there too.

I just got the iphone 4s and i cant figure out how to get siri to work it seems to be the old voice command. HELP!

Did you enable Siri in settings?
Settings > General > Siri > ON
If Siri is off, all you get when pressing the home button for 1 second is the old Voice Control.

Upgraded to IO6, seems like the amount of system memory to run is higher, this causes issues with some Apps. I can't get SIRI to work because the amount of free system memory is not enough. how can I tell what is eating the system memory?

My new Hey Siri stopped working. How can I get it to work again?

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?

HT201412 My new 4S phone:"Siri could not download required info from the server." What does that mean and how can I get it to work?

Just got the 4S. I cannot get Siri to work. It says it cannot retrieve info from the server. What does that mean and how can I fix it to use it?

Siri always contacts her own server at apple. They may be performing maintenance or applying updates, should be back soon.

How can I get Siri for my ipad2

How can I get Siri for my iPad 2 , and what happen to my YouTube app?

Siri does not work with the iPad 2.
Google are reportedly in the advanced stages of issuing a YouTube app.

How can I get Siri on my ipad2

How can I get Siri on my iPad 2 and what happen to my YouTube app?

The YouTube app is not included in iOS 6. You will either need to try one of the YouTube apps from the store (there is an iPhone optimised app from google, and other people have said that they are working on an iPad version), or try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com (you can create a home screen shortcut for the site)
Siri is only on the iPad 3, it's not on the iPad 2

how do i get siri to send me a reminder in a voice versus calendar
I know I double click to see the icons at the bottom of all the applications that are open and running, but how do I close them so they do not keep using my battery power?
Thanks so much!

You can't. Siri will launch the reminders app when you instruct her to set a reminder.

Tap and hold down on one of the icons in the recents tray and all of the icons will wiggle and they will also have a red minus sign in the upper left corner of the icons. Tap the red minus sign to close the apps. Tap the home button again when you are done.
Almost none of the apps that you will find in the recents tray are actually running and consuming battery power. I only close apps when the iPad starts to act a little funky - simply for troubleshooting purposes. I could have 50 or more apps in the recents tray at any one time. I get about 10 hours of use every day out of a full 100% charge of my new iPad's battery.

I have 2 ipod touch's that both have frozen screens and will not reset or show up in itunes. They both froze after trying to update to the latest software version. How do I get them to work?

I have 2 touch's that froze when trying to update to the latest ios version. Neither respond to restarting the devices. They are also not recognized in windows or itunes. How do I get these to work. I followed all of the instructions on the apple website and they still don't work. I have verified that I have apple support for mobile devices installed in itunes and my version of itunes is 11.0.1. I am running windows 7 64bit with service pack 1 installed and all of my updates are current. Is anybody else having this problem with their apple devices?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Based on what you've posted, your computer does not have the right tuner. You need a QAM tuner to record locals from FiOS, or a CableCard tuner to record all local and cable channels from FiOS.
QAM tuners to record local channels only
This requires Windows Vista or Windows 7
Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250
SiliconDust HDHomeRun (info on a sale)
CableCard tuner to record local and cable channels
This requires Windows 7 + one CableCard from Verizon for $3.99/mo
ATI TV Wonder Digital PC CableCard Tuner (records one channel at a time) -- $200-$250 on ebay
Ceton MOCUR tuner (records four channels at a time) -- coming in early 2010 for $400-$600
Make sure your computer has Windows 7 Home Premium (or better) installed. That's necessary to support CableCard tuners.
