  • How do you get Siri to read your text

    I can't seem to get SIRI to read my text aloud...it's silent for a few seconds, then it asks if I want it to read it again??

    Tell it to read your new text message.  Or if you know who texted you tell it to read the text from Mike, for example.

  • Does any one know EXACTLY how to get siri to READ text messages out loud ?

    How do I get siri to READ my text messages ? What do I "say " to siri ?

    Just reading through this post and the best way to Reset SIRI is to go to Settings>General>Siri and then turn SIRI off. This erase's anything SIRI has learn't about you, all you have to do then is turn SIRI back on and it is reset. It is not necessary to reset the iPhone itself.
    SIRI can only read back unread Txt messages, if you have opened a Txt message and already read it you can not have SIRI read it back to you. Don't forget SIRI is still in BETA and will take a little while while Apple tweek this technology.
    Cheers.

  • Cannot get Siri to read new email

    How do you get Siri to read new emails, or an old email?  I have tried both and it just says "sorry, I cannot read your email" or something similar.

    It works for me on 6.1.3.

  • Whenever I ask Siri a question it just links me to a website instead of just saying the answer.  The reason I ask Siri is because i am not in a position to look at my phone.  How can I get Siri to just answer my questions??

    I found that the only time Siri will read anything to you is if it finds a Wikipedia article. Siri will let you know it found that, and ask if you want it to be read out loud. Other than that you will hear the "I found this, take a look".
    The only other thing you can do is activate "Speak Screen". It will involve you taking a look at your phone for a moment, selecting what you'd like to look at, but Siri will read the content to you. It's in Settings > General > Accessibility.  Once activated, all you have to do is slide two fingers from the top of the screen and you will have it read to you. I use it all the time because of my astigmatism. It's pretty useful.

  • How can I get Siri to not see some iCal calendars?

    When I ask to see my calendar, Siri shows calendars that I want to supress. I have some iCal calendars with misc info (warranties, medicines, etc.) that I turn off in iCal, off on the phone calendar. But Siri shows me (for ex: "19 meetings"" when I ask to see my calendar. How can I get Siri to avoid those calendars I have turned off elsewhere? Thanks!

    If it is your own conference bridge you can create a new contact named "My Bridge" and enter your 1800 number along with a "wait" command and pass code and #.  It would look something like this 1-800-555-5555;12345678#.  This way when you tell Siri to call "My Bridge" she'll dial and then you'll notice an option in the lower left to dial the pass code.  Press that and you're all set. You can do the same for frequent conference bridges you connect to.  Hope this helps.

  • How can I get Siri to insert a pause (,) when voice-dialing a number?

    I join a lot of conference calls with my iPhone.  The conference bridges have phone numbers that follow this pattern:
    (123) 456-7890,1234567#
    How can I get Siri to insert the pause (,) character, and the pound (hash) sign, into the phone number when voice-dialing?
    When I say "pause" Siri inserts the word "pause" as a literal string: 
         Example: (123) 456-7890 pause 1234567
    When I say "comma" Siri will insert a comma (,) into the dial string, but the Phone app ignores everything after the comma and does not dial it:
         Example: (123) 456-7890, 1234567   results in only this being dialed:  (123) 456-7890
    When I say "pound" or "hash" Siri inserts the words "pound" or "hash" as literal strings:
         Example: (123) 456-7890, 1234567 pound     instead of (123) 456-7890,1234567#

  • How do i get siri on my ipod 4g?

         How do I get Siri on my IPod Touch 4G? Even if I already have the iOS update?

    You don't.
    SIR has never been available on ipod touch 4th gen and very likely never will be.
    As Apple announced and stated on their website, SIRI is for ipod touch 5th gen.

    How do I get Siri to pronounce my name correctly??

    Have you set up your contact information in Siri? Settings>General>Siri>My Info and linked to your entry in Contacts? I'm not sure why you'd need this information for texts, though.

    It does for everyone else.  You have to bring the phone up to your face (like making a call), activating the proximity sensor, for Siri to start.

  • HT204389 how do i get siri to send me a reminder in a voice versus calendar

    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.

  • How do you get it to read your email back to you

    I saw in an ad that it asked SIRI to read its email.  How do you get it to read exchange email 

    Siri, currently, can't read emails back to you. However, if you turn VoiceOver on, Siri can then read any text that is displayed on the screen in responses from Siri, like the body of an email.
