Siri can't tell me the time.

When I ask Siri "What time is it", it replies, "Sorry [me], I don't know the time in 105 - 201 5 Ave W."
I don't understand why it can't simply look at the clock on the phone and tell me the time. As if this isn't frustrating enough, I can't even get a simple "Where is the nearest Starbucks" to work.... as it says Location in Canada are not supported.
If Siri simply uses apps on the device, why can't it use the "Maps" app, where I can type "Starbucks" and get the nearest one to me in a very short amount of time. This is very frustrating.
Is there anything that can be done to [at minimum] get Siri to tell me the time?

I have found this too, & yes, it is frustrating..
however, if you  turn location services off for Siri, it can tell you the time & date, no problem.
I'm sure this is a bug & will be sorted as I have seen other mentions of it.
Also, this is still in 'Beta', i.e. not quite finished yet.
Apple have said that location based queries will come to places outside of the U.S. in time...

  • Can somebody tell me the time when I can buy the new Iphone6 in the Online-store in Germany?

    Hey Guys can somebody tell me the time when I can buy the new Iphone 6 in Germany in the Online-Store?

    The time has not been announced.  All Apple says is pre-orders start Friday, Sept 12 and in-store availability will be Friday, Sept 19.  A good guess would be either after midnight Sept 12 Cupertino, CA time, or time based on UTC.  In the past, in the US it has b been Midnight Cupertino, CA time.

  • Siri will not tell me the time, and another issues

    I tried to ask siri a number of questions since I received my iphone 5 on Saturday
    "what time is it"
    "call <contact name>"
    "what music is playing"
    all have given me similar variations on "i'm having trouble can you please try again"
    I switched from my iphone 4 and I was able to do these very basic tasks.
    Does apple have any feedback on when they are going to fix this issue with Siri not able to respond to basic tasks?

    i'm in america and its not working for american english. I think they are having trouble routing united states english but not the other english variations.

  • How can you tell where the time source is on solaris 9?

    we have a time synch issue that needs resolving and I have to check where each server involved gets its time from.
    I know in windows you just run a query of net time /querysntp
    what do you do on solaris 9?

    I know in windows you just run a query of net time /querysntpWindows has a default method of time synchronization, and your query may give you information about that. But there are other ways of doing time synch, even on windows.
    what do you do on solaris 9?Solaris 9 doesn't have a default time synchronization method set up out of the box. You have to configure it. So it depends on what you've configured. NTP is common, but not the only method.
    If you're using NTP then 'ntpq -pe' can give you information about what's happening at this point in time. I don't know whether you'd prefer that or perhaps looking at the overall configuration.

  • Why doesn't siri know how to change the time of a reminder? When asked, "Do you want to confirm or cancel your reminder?" Reply, "Can I change the time to a half hour later?" Siri doesn't know how to respond.

    Hi
    In iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x)
    on top menu row - Apple/iMovie/File/Edit/Cut (Can vary dep. on language - in Swedish Apple/iMovie/Arkiv/Redigera/Klipp . . . )
    down Cut menu - Slow playback/Raspid Playback/Re-play in Slow Motion and onvards
    Here one can select the Pre-Set speeds
    Are you familiar with getting 'inspector' to run?
    No - but I guess that Double Click on clip/sequense or ctrl-Click on it might open it.

  • I just received a iPod Touch 5th generation for xmas and it acts like it is locked, when you slide the slider it says unlock button and nothing happens.  Can't slide the power off either.  It tells you the time, unlock button, power off button but nothing

    I just received a iPod Touch 5th generation for xmas and it acts like it is locked, when you slide the slider it says unlock button and nothing happens.  Can't slide the power off either.  It tells you the time, unlock button, power off button but nothing happens.  Voice just tells you the unlock button, time, poweroff button.
    Please help also itunes says I need to enter on iPod the passcode to reset to factory.  I can't get it open to enter passcode, slider doesn't work.  It is one day old and this happen xmas afternoon.  PLEASE Help someone

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here, nobody on here will know why.

    Hello People please can anyone tell me what time or day ??? the IOS7 will be released!!!!! thank you
    Thanks Guys you resolved my issue !!!!!!!

    September 18th is the day Apple announced iOS 7 would be released. Apple did not specify a time of day. Apple is headquartered in Cupertino, CA USA. So, it is still September 18th in the USA.

  • I can't connect with the Time Capsule.

    Hello everyone,
    Some years ago, I bought a Time Capsule. Until now, I didn't want to use it as an extern HD.
    So I tried today.
    I am using it for a year now, as main router. Several computers and iDevices are using it.
    Because I had forgotten some things - and I hadn't wrote it down - I decided  to reset it and configure it again.
    Since then, the internet has become slower - and I my Macbook pro can't connect to the Time Capsule's disk.
    In Finder's everything fine. Left, under 'Shared', I can see the Time Capsule as a HD.
    When I click on it, I see: "No Connection". Then I select "Connect As", and I fill in the Time Capsule password.
    It tries to connect a few minutes, but then I get the message:
    "The backup disk could not be found. Make sure the backup disk is connected or open Time Machine preferences to select a different backup disk."
    In the Airport Utility, there's a green light.
    *My firmware has the newest updates
    *I am using Snow Leopard
    *I am using newest update of the Airport Utility
    *Since reset, internet's fine but a bit slower.
    Other Questions:
    *Can I use my Time Capsule for other things than only Time Machine (backup)?
    *Can I divide it in parts? (Backup, User)
    *Can I backup multiple devices on it? (Macbook Pro, iMac, Macbook Air etc.)
    Hope you can help me!

    What actual model is the TC.. the A1xxx number from the rubber base mat???
    As they age they become unreliable. Some earlier and some at 3year mark.
    It greatly depends on the setup of the existing network.
    I would recommend a downgrade in the TC firmware.. as with Snow Leopard there is no advantage to you in the later firmware.
    Go to the airport utility and select firmware update.. hold down the option key when you make the selection and all the previous versions available for your model will come up. I recommend using 7.5.2
    Do another reset of the device. This time a full factory reset.. and start the configuration again.
    Ignore update to firmware requests.. turn off the reminder.
    Set all names to SMB standard. short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric. TC name, wireless names, hard disk name.
    For wireless I recommend you use wpa2 security with 8-12 character passkey.. pure alphanumeric.
    Set to manual for radio channels and test 1, 6, 11 in turn for the best.
    Depending on the broadband you use, the TC must be in router or bridge mode.. tell us more if you need help for this.
    If you think the TC is slowing you down, do a test with direct connection to the broadband modem and give us the speed comparison.. direct and via the TC ethernet or wireless.. tell us which though.. wireless will always be slower than ethernet.
    If you have issues still with the hard disk it might need some work.. older models the disk might need to be erased .. please open any time machine backup and run a verify.

    Other Questions:
    *Can I use my Time Capsule for other things than only Time Machine (backup)?
    Yes, but the TC is designed primarily for Time Machine.. if you store files, there is no method in the TC to back up those files.. do not make them the only store.
    *Can I divide it in parts? (Backup, User)
    You cannot partition a TC .. not without removing the disk. You can create a disk image.
    Q3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
    *Can I backup multiple devices on it? (Macbook Pro, iMac, Macbook Air etc.)
    You can use multiple devices with TM. Be aware you need lots of free space for this to be successful. So you need to add up the total you want to backup on each computer.. and at least double it.

    you could try forcing it into recovery mode by turning it off, hold the home button and plug it into iTunes at the same time, keep holding the home button until iTunes says its detected a device that needs to be updated or restored. Then restore.
