Questions for siri

Asking Siri to call person with 2 contact numbers. Siri lists options but doesn't recognise me askin it to call 'mobile'. But can ask for specific dial such as: call John mobile. Anyone having this problem? Or am I doing something wrong?

Quote:
"For Siri to work, your device must be connected to the Internet using cellular data or Wi-Fi."

You are NOT using Siri to do those things without a data connection.

  • IPhone 6 External Mic not working for Siri/Dictation

    I am finding that the external mic on my iPhone 6 works for phone calls and voice memos, but does not work for Siri/Dictation.  When I plug in the earbuds, they work for everything (including Siri/Dictation).
    Was chatting to Apple support who had me reset all settings.  I thought that worked, but realized that after a reset, Siri is off and I was talking to "Voice control" (which works).  When I turned Siri back on, it does not work.
    I have two questions for the community to see if you can help:
    1- I have been assuming this must be a software problem since the mic does work for non-Siri access.  But is that true?  Is there a hardware component that Siri depends on which could be faulty here?
    2- If it is software, what action should I try to address it?  I have done a reset all settings already and that did not help.

    Hi, everyone.  I talked to Apple Genius at Apple Store last week, she said it should be a software issue and I needed to reset my iphone 6 plus as a new device and I can not use the backup restore from my iCloud, it was because the microphone bug or glitch can be in the backup also. Ok, followed her advice, erased all contents and set my iphone as a new device , the microphone worked for an hour, but went bad again.  I used "voice memo" app from Apple to test the microphone. It is the best tool since it doesn't involve any provider's network and it doesn't need another person's phone to listen and test.  If you can hear your voice recording clearly, then the mic works.  I tested it 3-4 times a day for a few days now, half of the time the mic doesn't work.  So, set as a new device isn't working. The issue is intermittent and it comes and goes as it likes, so very annoying. I carry my Apple EarPods with me in these past few days ust in case I need to make important phone calls.  Will need to go back to Apple Genius this weekend for sure.  Will give update after the weekend.

  • Why can't I edit all of address information for Siri to use?

    I have been playing around a lot with Siri lately.  Unfortunately she doesn't seem to want to play with me.  I have been trying to find a way for Siri to remind to complete a task after I leave from a location other than my home or work address.  At first I realized that I did not have other addresses other than my home and work address stored under my contact information in my address book.  After I tried to tell Siri to remind me to complete a task after I left my gym for example, Siri told me that this information was not entered and that I should edit my information which I tried doing.  The problem is that I was not able to change the name of the address information in my address book from "other" to "gym".  Is there anyway to get around this? 
    I have also noticed that when I ask Siri to remind to complete a task after I leave a location (e.g. "work") she reminds me to complete the task when I arrive at the location.  There must be a way for Siri to distinguish between me arriving at a location and me leaving that location.
    My final gripe is that Apple does not have anywhere for me to submit feedback on Siri or its Maps services.  I do not understand how Apple expects to improve these two critical areas of their user experiences without allowing people to provide suggestions for improvement.

    So I read through some feedback posted on here and was able to answer my first question.  The second issue remains a problem however.

  • Interview question for support engineer

    interview question for support engineer ....please can i get this sir..need to interview for apple as support engineer...thank you

    Hi Fritz,
    Let us address the problem one by one.
    1. You might need to change the source structure to :
    -root 1..1
    --Value 1..unbounded
    Please note root and Value are the names given by me you can use any names as per your wish. But we cannot have the source as you specified, will this source be ok for you?
    2. Give File content conversion parameter
    recordset name = Vale
    Value.endSeparator 'nl'
    By doing this there will be a Value node created when the source file has a newline character
    3. In message mapping create two UDF
    *UDF1 (Simple ?UDF with input field named *input )
    for (int i=0;i<input.length;i++)
       output += input<i>;
    return output
    *UDF2 (Simple UDF with input field named input)*
    int i = 1;
    String [] value = new String[112];
    while (input.indexOf(";") != -1)
    String counter = "";
    Integer i_int = new Integer (i);
    if (i<10)
        counter = "00"+ i_int.toString();
    else if (i>9 && i<100)
         counter = "0"+ i_int.toString();
    else counter = i_int.toString();
    if (input.startsWith(counter)) {
      value<i> = input.substring(3, input.indexOf(";"));
      if (input.indexOf(";") != -1 )
         input = input.substring(input.indexOf(";")+1);   
    else
      value <i> = "";
    i++;
    int j;
    GlobalContainer globalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    globalContainer.setParameter("Output", value);
    Now do a mapping like this
    Value (context root)--> UDF1 > UDF2> target root node (ie Bewsatz)
    By this step you set all the values in global container named Output
    3. Now for each target  field call this UDF
    *UDF3 (Simple UDF with input field named pos)*
    GlobalContainer globalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    String[] Value = (String[] )globalContainer.getParameter("Output");;
    String outvalue;
    if (Value != null) {
    outvalue = Value(pos) ;
    return outvalue;
    Call this UDF for each output field with positions like 1, 2, 3, ...111
    Please try this
    Regards
    Suraj

  • How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I have a new email address and my old email keeps coming up on icloud when trying to update apps and i don't know the password or security questions for the old email. I can sign in with my apple id which is tied to another email but not itunes how to fix

    I have an apple id and it has my current email attached to it. however when i go to update apps it's asking for the password for an old email. I no longer have the old email and can't use it. when I go to icloud on my ipad it asks for the password for old email. it doesn't allow me to change the old email to current. when i go to reset it i can't remember the password or security questions for the old email so it doesn't let me go any further. How do I fix this? Do i need to call apple support?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • I am having trouble answering my old security questions for my itunes account and it is creating a problem because I am not able to purchase apps/songs on my new IPAD. What phone number/email adress should I call to get a quick response to my issue?

    I have recently bought an IPAD 2 for my girlfriend and have encountered a problem with purchasing apps through my itunes account. It is requesting that I not only enter my pasword (which I know) but answer my old account questions, which I have forgotten the answers to. It had since locked me out of changing my questions for eight hours. Is there any number I can call to prove that I am the real owner of my itunes account so my girlfriend will be able to use her ipad to purchase new apps without having to go through the trouble of using one of my other apple devices? Random information: I believe my questions were set back in 2007 when I purchased my first ipod nano, since then I have used this same itunes account for my own ipod touch and ipad 2 and my girlfriends iphone 1st generation. I have never run into a problem regarding my questions before on any of these devices

  • Can somebody give some real time questions for alv report

    hi guru
    can somebody give some real time questions for alv report.
    answers also.
    regards
    subhasis.

    hi,
    The ALV is a set of function modules and classes and their methods which are added to program code. Developers can use the functionality of the ALV in creating new reports,  saving time which might otherwise have been spent on report enhancement
    The common features of report are column    alignment, sorting, filtering, subtotals, totals etc. <b>To implement these, a lot of coding and logic is to be put. To avoid that we can use a concept called ABAP List Viewer (ALV).</b>
    Using ALV, we can have three types of reports:
       1. Simple Report
       2. Block Report
       3. Hierarchical Sequential Report
    <b>Reward useful points</b>

    Please read my question carefully, this is, I think, a question for the experts. It's not the usual name change question.
    When I setup my new MacBook Pro, something slipped by me and my computer was named First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro (using my real first and last name).
    I changed the computer name in Preferences/Sharing to a new name and Preferences/Accounts to just be Mike. I can right click on my account name, choose advanced, and see that everything looks right.
    However, If I do a scan of my network with my iPhone using the free version of IP Scanner, it lists my computer as First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro! And it lists the user as First-Last.
    So even though another Mac just sees my new computer name, and my home folder is Mike, somewhere in the system the original setup with my full name is still stored. And it's available on a network scan. So my full name might show up at a coffee shop.
    Can I fully change the name without doing a complete re-install of Lion and all my apps?

    One thought... you said the iPhone displayed your computer's old name? I think that you must have used the iPhone with this computer before you changed the name. So no one else's iPhone should display your full name unless that iPhone had previously connected to your Mac. For example, I did this exact same change, and I use the Keynote Remote app to connect with my MacBook Pro. It would no longer link with my MacBook Pro under the old name, and I found that I had to unlink and then create a new link under the new name. So the answer to your question is, there is nothing you need to do on the Mac, but rather the phone, and no other phone will display your full name.

  • Is there a way to make the bluetooth source I pick for Siri persistent?

    I have my iPhone paired with the factory Bluetooth hands-free audio in a car. I like using it for phone calls, but not for Siri.
    When I start Siri, I can choose my audio source, but the iPhone forgets the selection after that session, and defaults back to trying to use the car's speaker and mic the next time I use Siri.
    Is there a way to make this audio source selection persistent?
    Thanks,
