Can I chose my alarm tone with Siri?

While I love setting an alarm using Siri, I don't love the default alarm tone. I've noticed that you set the tone of choice when you manually set the alarm. Is there any way to create a new default tone so that alarms set with Siri use that one?

I just went into the clock app, selected alarm at the bottom, then tapped the + symbol on the top right. That takes you to add alarm. I selected sound and choose an alarm tone I liked (one that doesn't cause a heart attack when I am peacefully sleeping). I hit save. It set an alarm for the time I began the process but I just turned that off. After that, whether I set an alarm manually or with siri, the same tone resulted.

Nokia E51 - Can't set clock alarm tone

Hey there people!
My device is Nokia E51, and for some, bizarre reason, I can't set the clock alarm tone.
When I choose the sub-menu "Clock alarm tone" a list of songs/audio files on the phone is supposed to load.... but nothing there. The phone doesn't even give me any options to choose from. I actually find this quite frustrating and annoying because I'm trying to do something very basic here.
I've attached a capture.
Thanks for helpers.
Solved!

Well the reason I asked about the large number of audio files is because it appears to be a common bug across many of nokias phones. When you have a large number of audio files (either on the card or on the phone itself) the phone apparently gets 'confused' and is unable to load up the selection of ringtones or music files to use as a ringtone.
The only solutions would be to either:
1) Delete songs until the ringtone menu goes back to normal
2) Do what you have done with copying it to the phone then removing the memory card to be able to select the file.. then reinsert the memory card
Nokia just needs to get their act together. They should seperate ringtones from the music files. This way when you go to select a ringtone.. it will ask to either choose a ringtone from a list.. or to select one of your mp3s from a list. This way keeping it seperate. But that would be extra menus to navigate and people probably wouldnt like it.
But if they did it that way then they could use the mp3 listings by album, artist, song title, etc to allow people to choose the music files they want as a ringtone. It would be easier to do that then continually scroll through huge lists

Can't change clock alarm tone (N97)

I'm having an issue on my phone (N97) where i try to set my alarm tone to anything other than 'default tone' to wake up to in the morning, when i click on it, the loading bar comes up with "opening" for about 15 seconds, then i get an error "Clock: Memory full close some applications and try again"
I only did a hard reset on this phone last week, along with a complete format of the mass memory, then reinstall of apps, yes another handful of hours goven away to nokia. It is running v20
BestTaskman is telling me i have no applications open and 40.48Mb of RAM free. how can changing the clock tone use up 40Mb of RAM???
I can change my ringtones in profiles just fine...
Most probably has somethign to do with the 17.5GB or so of music that I have on the mass memory, but really, that shouldn't make a difference, did they give us a 32GB phone and expect us not to use it?
has anyone seen this or know how to fix it?

Also still have loads of other files in my c: and not getting much love in these forums other then reset phone. must be another way...must be...

Can you reply to an email with Siri?

I know you can say to Siri "send email to Fred, subject "late meeting", and say "i will be late for my meeting tonight".
It will do it and confirm.
But can you ask Siri to reply, or can that only be done via the Voice 'mic' button in the keyboard.

When you are sending an email with Siri - if you have multiple accounts on your iP, does Siri ask from what account to send the email???? Or does it just pic the default one.
If it's default, that's not quite right, as you may send a business one, or a personal one from different accounts.

Can i send a whatsapp message with siri??

I tried to send a messenge with siri but did not succeed

If you have tried and cant, then you cant.

How can I set my privacy tighter with Siri and Dictation?

OK First of all, Apple needs to stop with the restriction of what you can say in posts. They keep deleting my stuff without allowing my QUESTION to be answered.
First of all, when did this massive invasion of my privacy happen? Did it happen with the latest update to iOS 8.1? I know I did not have these pop ups until this update happened this week.
I would like to know how to use Siri and Dictation WITHOUT such a massive invasion of my privacy?
Did I ever have such privacy prior to iOS 8.1?
I went to dictate a text message to my husband today and I get a pop up telling me that ALL my information is going to be shared. There is a "learn more" link and I click that and it has this long diatribe on how
Apple takes the things I say and dictate and records them and sent to them to process my requests. My device will also send Apple other information, such as my name and nickname; the names, nicknames, and relationship with me (e.g. "my dad") of my address book contacts, song names in my collection, and HomeKit-enabled devices in my home (e.g., "living room lights") (collectively, your "User Data"). All of this data is used to help Siri and Dictation understand me better and recognize what I say. It is not linked to other data that Apple may have from my use of other Apple services...
there is a lot more but suffice it to say, it does NOT 'match' what is said about Siri and Dictation on the Apple privacy page. The phone privacy contract description has MORE things listed that are being recorded, used and stored.

It only matches what I quoted. There is a lot more in the phone.
I also had a lot more in my original post but Apple censored and then deleted it because they decided it was a rant.
Apple's policy in my phone's privacy policy says a lot more.
Apparently from your answer I am stuck with a massive invasion of my privacy? Are you so very comfortable with having everything you say recorded? What if you worked in a high security industry?
I also asked if this was in effect prior to this latest update or not.
What I had to omit. Check your phone's privacy page and compare to apple's web page I linked ( Settings > General > Keyboard >Dictation & Settings > General > Siri) and click on the About Siri or Dictation privacy...
It goes on to tell me I can restrict Siri's and Dictation's ability completely by turning it off.
It tells me that my personal information, voice recording and other things collected may be retained for a period of time to generally improve Siri, Dictation an functionality in other Apple products and services. <-- this right here contradicts the paragraph I quoted by saying it indeed DOES use it for other Apple things. Also, HOW LONG is this "period of time"?
If I want to 'erase' this information I can simply turn off then on Siri and or Dictation and lose what I have had recorded on me. THIS fully restarts the "learning" process all over again and in turn NEGATES all the stuff it learned in the past. The KICKER is that since apple "retains what it collects for a period of time" HOW does turning the services off truly "erase" what was taken in the past?
Why can't the learning process be done directly on the phone itself without it being RECORDED and STORED by Apple?
Now, before you go off and say how Apple respects my privacy, I know all of that. I just don't believe or trust it since all this iCloud hacking has been happening lately AND I am VERY conscious of what I put "out there" for all to see and take. I don't use social networking either due to the massive invasion of my privacy. Plus I find it silly. I will not be reduced to a low level of conversation where the simple "like" is the equivalent of a reply.

N82 Only default alarm tone

I'm having the strangest problem: i can't change my alarm tone. I have a microSD card inserted, it has mp3s on it, the phone recognizes each and every one of them, i use some of them as ringtones etc. So everything seems to be working.
However, when i want to change the alarm tone, i have only 3 options: default; download new; off. I've tried creating a new alarm, editing my current, changing the tone in Personalise-> Tones (same options). Nothing worked.
Please, help me.

C7 - Can I change caller's tone?

Hi, I'm new C7 owner, my phone works fine, but I should change the tone equalization of the built-in earpiece during voice call. This phone has clear sound, but with lower dominant voice spectral components, than my earlier phones. It means too hard to understand some of my partners (even impossible in some cases), with whom were not this problem with other phones.
So, can I change caller's tone with some built-in function or with Ovi application?

Of course you can. Go to the contact you want to modify, click on edit and there is a field inside the contact called "Ringing tone".
By default this option is "Set by profile" so what you have to do is click on it, choose the ringtone, song, etc and that's it.

How can I stop my phone buzzing with alarms

using a 58000 Xpress Music
I synch with Outlook - great!
I have a todo item and the phone now reminds me too - great!
Unfortunately the alarm assumes I am there, all the time with my phone, and it's default time is 6 a.m so if the phone s in my bedroom like today, and have a todo item I get woken up.
Even if I turn off the alarm tone I get woken up as there appears to be no way to suppress the vibrating buzzer which will carry on trying to wake me u until I get up and press the screen or until the battery runs out (which it does quite quickly when the buzzer is continually making the phone vibrate).
Every other calendar app I have seen reminds you politely once only unless asked to snooze, and has the ability t be totally silent and non-invasive
Can I make my phone behave in a "normal" way?
Thanks in advance
John

John,
Have you figured out how to turn off the buzzing? Really irritable! My only solution is to delete all the calender events and go on the market for a Windows Mobile phone. ..funny you would think in these times that Nokia would like to keep customers by giving them want they want...Not asking alot really...

HT5934 My ios 7 download did not come with siri at all. what can I do to download it?

*I downloaded IOS 7and it did not come with SIRI. How can I download that to my phone?

This is correct.
Why did you think it would come with Siri?
Iphone 4 will never have Siri.

My elderly mother hss EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri. Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing and not accidentally open any other app and screw something

My elderly mother has EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri. Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing or Siri and not accidentally open any other app and screw something up.

I'm asking, in all seriousness, why do you think your mother needs an iPhone? Honestly, if your mother is, as you described her, a technophobe, I would recommend against getting an iPhone or any other smartphone. I've spent a fair bit of time teaching older folks to use smartphones. If they are interested in learning, it's fine. If they have the phone because their kids or grandkids thought it was a good idea but they are afraid of the phone or not interested in its features, it doesn't go well at all.
Many basic phones have voice dialing. Obviously, it doesn't do all the things Siri does but it may be much less intimidating for your mom. Also, basic phones have hardware keys. Even someone with limited vision can learn the keyboard on such a phone. From the sound of your first post, all she will be doing is making phone calls.
Best of luck.

Is the iPhone alarm supposed to sync with iwatch? I can't get any alarm notifications from my iPhone to my watch. Do I have to just set up whole new alarms specifically in my watch?

Is the iPhone alarm supposed to sync with iwatch? I can't get any alarm notifications from my iPhone to my watch. Do I have to just set up whole new alarms specifically in my watch?

Yes, they should sync. Check the Watch app on the iPhone and look at Calendar - make sure it's set to Mirror my phone
If it still doesn't work, reset the Watch, restart the phone and re-pair the Watch - fixes a few glitches
