After I "updated" my iPad mini with iOS7 Siri lost her voice! Help me get it back for her

IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET SIRI'S VOICE BACK?  HAS THERE BEEN ANY FIXES OR UPDATES THAT I MAY HAVE MISSED?
I updated iOS7 when it was first introduced to my iPad mini and when I did Siri went speechless.  When she replies, it's written and it's not always convenient. 
And of course with the "update" there were other "problems" that I have learned to work around, waiting for another "update" but I haven't seen that, now I'm going to just start looking for fixes as I come across them. 

Thanks for your suggestion Diavonex, I did go thru the steps as you have detailed out, however when I get to "#3 My Info> . . . ." I am unable to select "default" the field is populated with "My Contacts" and initially had my name.   I have removed my email accounts and to try to get it to leave my contacts and it remains there although now it says "NONE".  
I also tried the "RESET" as suggested by Texas Mac Man.    And still nothing. 
Any more suggestions?  But now we are looking at two issues.  First ~ Silent Siri      AND NOW    Second  ~  #3 My Info under the Siri label does not have a "default" option as it DEFAULTS to my  CONTACTS
Thank you both again, I appreciate your suggestions.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?

  • IPad Mini with IOS7 showing 35 unread Yahoo emails

    iPad mini with IOS7 updated yesterday is showing 35 unread emails on my yahoo account using the mail account on the iPad.   All other yahoo accounts including the yahoo mail app DO NOT show 35 unread emails. 
    1) I have added and deleted the yahoo account several times with no luck
    2) rebooted iPad with no luck
    3) iPad 2 with same yahoo account added DOES NOT show 35 unread emails.
    Any suggestions on what is causing this?

    Reset iPad and continue with update.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • I have trouble to find my photo after I sync my ipad mini with my laptop for the first time. I assume it is stored in iCloud, how to view it?

    Please help! I'm really stressed out about this. I have lost all my recent family holiday photos after returning from overseas. After I sync my ipad mini with my laptop pc for the very first time. all the photos I had in my iPad mini has gone. I assume it was stored in iCloud.  As suggested i should download iCloud Control Pannel to my pc to which I did. After I click "manage storage", it shows I have used up 621.70MB of my total storage 5GB. I tried to click on the BACKUP icon, it displayed (incomplete) next to my ipad. What does it mean by incomplete? Where can I access my photo from icloud? Thank you and looking forward to your reply.

    Hi, Winston Churhill,
    Thank you or taking your time reply this query. Unfortunately I still can't find my picture. My photo stream folder is empty! :(
    But my iclod account says I have 621.7 MB backed up. What are they? How to access this backed up file? What does I meant by INCOMPLETE. Does it mean that the file ha been corrupted during the process? Or ICloud is not compatible to my laptop?
    Thank you.

  • How do I PLAY ALL videos on iPad mini with iOS7?

    I updated my IPad mini to iOS7 and now the play button has disappeared that used to be at the top of the list of videos in the video app.  There doesn't seem to be a way to continuously play all videos.  Does anyone know how to do it now?  Thank you!

    I was the fan of this feature until ios 6 version. I have two mini ipads @ my home for my kids. It helped my kids a lot to play all the episodes within a tv show. Apple some how decided kill the features linked to someone's patent in ios 7, thereby they can avoid paying royalty fee to the patent holder. Even from the initial days there are lot of such features missed out in ipad, iphone or MAC. You might overlook these features as a consumer.
    I will be surprised if Apple listens to this customer feedback.
    I am seeing the same question being raised in many forums including within apple forums.

  • I've updated my iPad 2 with iOS 6.0 but I don't see any settings for siri

    I've updated my iPad 2 with iOS 6.0 but I don't see any settings for siri.  I don't see many of the new features i was expecting and i am not sure as to why.  Will there be another update?  Please advise?  Thanks.

    Not for Siri on the iPad 2 - from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/ :
    Siri is available on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (3rd generation), and iPod touch (5th generation) and requires Internet access. Cellular data charges may apply.
    Passbook, from the same page (not for iPads) :
    With Passbook, you can scan your iPhone or iPod touch to check in for a flight, get into a movie, and redeem a coupon.

  • After i updated my ipad mini 2 to IOS 8.1.3 Wifi is no longer working

    Model: Ipad Mini 2 Retina
    Version: IOS 8.1.3
    My problem is that after i realize the update to IOS 8.1.3 my ipad keep saying me that im offline. I checked with my laptop and the wifi is working correctly. I need help with this an ipad without internet connection is almost useless, cant even connect in the office and my house.

    To expand if you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network(s) or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
    First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
    If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network(s). Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. Do NOT reset it. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
    If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
    If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

  • Access to Control panel not working on iPad mini with ios7

    Control center too difficult to access within apps or lock screen or home screen.
    Swiping up from the bottom works once every 30 swipes.
    Definitely a bug in ios7 while using my iPad mini.
    Apple, please fix this.

    Wait, just found a fix.
    You must swipe multiple times (quickly) from the bottom to access it.
    That seems to work, and not as finicky as I thought initially.
    I could easily get used to it this way, however Apple doesn't explain accessing it this way, so they should update the ios7 video for iPads if this is how the control panel was designed.

  • How do you set up an email folder with a different name on IPad mini with IOS7

    On my computer I have serveral different folders to separate mail as it comes in. How do I do this on my IPad mini IOS 7? There seems to only a very limited number of folders I can use and cannot change their names. Is there a way to separate my incoming mail on my mini IPad as I do on my IMAC?

    You can only create folders in the mail app on the iPad if you have an IMAP email account. If your email account was an IMAP account, those folders would have already synced to the iPad. If they are not already on the iPad, your account isn't IMAP and you can't create folders.
    The folders that you created on the iMac are for local storage and organization only. The Mac Mail App allows you to do that. There is no such feature for the mail app on the iPad.
    Just to be sure and as a double check ..... If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
    If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.
