That's just plain rude.  Of course we're sure because we actually read the fine print that Apple puts on everything they've ever said about iOS 6 and Siri.
Its obvious you didn't read any of that, so here's a link:  http://www.apple.com/ios/siri/siri-faq/
Now scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and read the fine grey printing....
And just so you know why Siri is not available on a 4th generation iPod Touch, its because a 4th gen does not have the requisite computational and audio processing power to run Siri in a fashion that will give the end user an enjoyable experience.  What this means is that the end user would experience slow response times, connection errors, and other problems that would  be unacceptable.  Consequently, users would be placing more calls to Apple Support.  The increase in call volumes would cause support costs to increase, and the fact that Siri was not meeting customer expectations would have a negative impact on customer satisfaction.
Speaking as a former Microsoft Product Support Professional for Windows 3.x through Windows 2000 Server, Apple's decision not to include Siri for the iPhone 4 and 4th gen Touch iOS 6 update makes perfect sense.

  • Does siri work with ipod touch 4g with the new update

    with the new update does the siri only work for the new 5th genration ipod touch, if so that is so unfair

    No
    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.

  • Does "hey Siri" work on iPod touch with iOS 8?

    Apple says iOS 8 compatible with iPod touch 5th generation but not if "hey Siri" works. Anyone tried it?

    on iPhone and iPad, you can say "hey Siri" to activate Siri if device is plugged into power. Can you do that with iPod?

    Auto brightness does not work after upgrade from iOS5 to iOS6 on my iPod touch. Is this intended by Apple, or is it a bug?

  • Gigaware HD Radio Dongle - Does it work for iPod Touch?

    Hello. I am hoping to get one of the new 4G iPod touches later this year, and I would really like it to have HD radio capability. I have heard of a product called the Gigaware HD Radio Dongle. There are actually two, but this one isn't so much of a dongle as it is an adapter that plugs into the iPod -- see link http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3734240.
    One of the reviews stated that this product didn't work on an iPod touch. I was just wondering if anyone else who currently has an iPod touch owns this & if so what folks think of it (especially those who currently have an iPod touch). Thanks!

  • Genius does not work on ipod touch 2G.

    I have a second generation 8GB ipod touch. Every time i tap on genius icon, it pops out a messege saying that the song has not enough related songs to create a genius playlist. I have around 420 songs and most of them are from famous artists, still same messege. Where as on my pc, itunes can create a genius playlist from any given song..... Anybody can help???

    Hi Jinesh,
    Based on your information, I would state that genius is indeed working since it tells you that you don't have enough related songs.  420songs is not much to match a playlist.  Beside, it's not simply related to the number of songs but on if they are related based on Genius database.
    On your iTunes on your PC, you will see the same atomic icon as on your iPod located on the top display.
    I must say that Genius works great when you have above a few thousands songs.  Keep in mind that this feature may not work for albums that had just been released since it is also use somehow in its algorithm how users actually match these songs.

  • Will FM receiver work with iPod Touch?

    Hi there! I haven't posted for a while...
    I really want an iPod Touch, and have been doing my research online...one of the main complains that keeps coming up is that the iPod Touch doesn't have a volume button. I have a 1st gen iPod Nano, and for that I have an FM receiver (Apple brand, not some cheapo junk). If I can use that with a Touch, then there would be no problem, but the new iPod receiver box doesn't mention that it works with the Touch. If anyone has tried it and could tell me, that would be awesome.
    Just one last thing...I also read that people were having problems with the colour black on their screens, that it appeared all shimmery. Has a patch come through for that, or has it been fixed?
    Thank you in advance!
    Alex

    - No, Apple's iPod Radio Remote does not work with iPod touch. Look for compatible devices on the online Apple Store.
    - I don't think a patch can solve it, but the screen problem was only in the beginning, I don't think it's still an issue.

  • IOS 7 doesn't work on iPod touch 4g, so does the mean its the end for this device? Or are they going to make updates specially for lower devices an apps that are compatible ??

    iOS 7 doesn't work on iPod touch 4g, so does the mean its the end for this device? Or are they going to make updates specially for lower devices an apps that are compatible ??

    Which apps remain compatible will be up to the individual developers who sell those apps. There will be no further iOS updates, but those aren't really necessary to continue to use and enjoy your device. I still have an iPad 1 running on iOS 5, and it is fully functional.
    The App Store has an app called VintApps 3.1.1 that is specifically geared toward iOS 3.1, however, you would probably be able to run most of those apps on your iPod, and considering that there will be a rather large market for iOS 6 apps users, it is not likely that you will see a significant reduction in choices any time soon.
    It is not the end for the device in any sense except that it is at it's ultimate iOS level. And again, I have an iPad that is at it's ultimate iOS level (iOS 5), and I get new apps all the time that work for both my iPad and my iPhone that runs iOS 6.1.1
    No need to fret....
    Cheers,

  • Why my ipod touch 5g crashes, it does not work and the touch after a type is loaded and will be locked?

    why my ipod touch 5g crashes, it does not work and the touch after a type is loaded and will be locked?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Does SIRI work on the ipad?

    Does SIRI work on the ipad?

    Siri WILL work on "The New iPad" and it will have many of the new features in iOS 6. The iPhone 4S gets more features, but still the iPad 3 will get a healthy chunk. Unfortunately, users like me on my iPad 2, and other people on iPad 1 (who doesn't even get IOS 6) and iPhone 4, 3GS, iPod 4th Gen, don't Get Siri AT ALL and probably won't get it (fingers crossed though!
    Hope this helps, if not, messag me back!

  • Will there be a siri update for ipod touch??

    I was wondering if there would be a siri update for ipod touch in the near future.

    Doesnt have the proccessor to run Siri, even i do wish they made a special version for siri to run on this proccessor thou but they have probably already tried it but funky errors or whatevr and they will get complaints for it so they will just drop the subject for the iPod Touch 4G to have siri.
    Not unless u void ur warrenty to do so which we're not allowed to talk about that here.
    so thats y they created the iPhone 4S, it does the same basic things with the iphone 4 but iphone 4s with specail new features for the camera and having siri built to it, plus watevr they added it to it that the iphone 4 cant handle it.
