How can I make Siri distinguish between calendar appointments (busy) and calendar events (free)?

When I ask Siri "How does my day look tomorrow?" she tells me every appointment (busy) and task (free) I have scheduled. I'm trying to find a way to let her know that I'm only interested in seeing what appointments (busy) I have that day.
Has anyone found a way to do this? I'm using iCloud calendars on all my devices.
I've already used iCloud calendars to designate each individual event as either "free" or "busy," but she continues to display all calendar events when I ask for an overview of my day. I've tried to do this from my iPhone, Macbook, and iCloud website.
Moving my tasks to my "Reminders" app won't help, because I need to be able to schedule time to work on specific tasks and also put important deadlines into my calendar. At the same time, when I ask Siri, "How does my day look," I am only interested in knowing what appointments I have that day.
I've also tried asking specifically "What meetings do I have in my [work/personal/family etc. calendar]" but that doesn't work either.
I've also tried asking "Can you show me when I'm busy today" and "Can you show me todays's appointments."
It may be that Siri doesn't have this capability yet, but it would be nice to know if its in the works or if it exists.

    But if I want ONLY fade out (or in) I can't do it...
    OK, I understand what you mean now! I assumed you were asking about the normal Fade In or Fade Out using the transition from the Transitions panel. But I guess you mean the Fade function specific to a Cutaway. When you double-click on a Cutaway the Inspector opens. Here you can set the Cutaway Fade duration. But as you say, it only provides for both fade in and fade out as one operation - you can't set the fades individually (it's both or nothing).
    BUT, try the method outlined by Karsten Schluter above. It will give you the same effect and will enable you to fade either side of the Cutaway (or add other transitions).

    How can I make Siri choose the correct phone number to text when I ask it to send a text message to a contact who has a phone number and an email address?

    Johnathan,
    Can Siri record a voice memo?
    Do you know if it can read older text messages by just asking?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

  • How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom? Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    How can you make your persona show on the top and bottom?
    Also can you make it bigger at the top to show more of the picture?

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />

    How can I make a global change so all controls and indicators labels on the front panel change to another colour?
    I need to change the front panel so that it can be used in a dark environment.

    Hi
    The only way I see, is to use the "Controls[]" property and iterate through all of them. But don't forget about nested elements (i.e. clusters, tab-controls, ...).

  • How can I make an image appear partially in front and partially behind another layer in Adobe Illustrator?

    How can I make an image appear partially in front and partially behind another layer in Adobe Illustrator?

    Put the image behind the layer (at the back of it or on a layer below). With it still selected, Copy.
    Now Paste in Front (Ctrl+F). Depending on your Paste Remembers Layers setting, you may have to bring the newly pasted copy to the front, or to the upper layer.
    Draw a shape over the image to define the portion of it you want to appear "in front."
    With the shape and the image selected, clip the image using the shape. (Object > Clipping Mask > Make)

    Thanks Eric, but that was already turned on. I just now tried turning it off and on again, no change. Actually, I"m more interested in seeing the names than the pictures. I now only see the phone numbers and generic avatars where pics would be.

  • How can i make a connection between an application and a database over net

    dear sir
    how can i make connection between an appliction and a database over internet while the client side appliction is behind proxy and firewall
    for example how the live update of norton antivirus makes connection to the data server to make comparetions and get new virus definitions
    does that depend on sockets technology ?
    what references can guide me to the solution please?

    The ability to do so depends entirely on the JDBC driver implementation having some proxy method. It needs to recognize the HTTP or SOCKS proxy and use them to connect, and the firewall and proxy need to allow those specific port connections.
    To the best of my knowledge, all of these update utilities, e.g. live update for Netscape, Norton, etc., do not connect directly to the database. As it is, no sane security person would allow a database to be exposed to the Net. Rather, they connect using HTTP or HTTPS, which normally traverses firewalls just fine, to connect to a Web or application server on the far end. That application server then parses the request and retrieves whatever it needs to from the database.
    In other words, you cannot have a 2-tier client/server application. You need a 3-tier application:
    your client -> Web/app server -> database
    where the connection from your client to the Web/app server is over http or https through the firewall and proxies.
    Hope this helps.
