Siri does not recognize commands

Siri does not recognize simple commands like dial harold home.
Is there anything I need to do to make siri recognize my voice.

Have you tried telling Siri: "Remember that [contact name] is my son?"
Have you tried adding him to YOUR contact? To do so, open the Contacts app, and select the contact for yourself. Tap Edit in the upper right. Scroll to the bottom and tap Add Field. I think there should be a field for "Relationship" or something to that effect, from which you can enter "Son" and enter his contact.

  • Siri does not recognize 80% of my commands. Is an update coming?

    I bought the 4S, due to safety aspect while driving. Yet texting are dialing are impossible to do using Siri.  The standard reply is "I don't understand" or "I'm sorry but I can complete that request".  What good is Siri? I feel that I waisted $200. I want it to work like the commercial!!!

  • The device does not recognize the command

    Hello,
    I'm using this Microsoft Tool for the firsts time. I'm getting a "The Device does not recognize the command.".  I have installed Microsoft Network Monitor 3.4 onto my Windows 7 Laptop. I was able to pull captures yesterday. But today I'm getting
    this error. I don't believe anything's changed.
    These are the steps I'm doing to produce the error. New Capture -> Capture Settings -> Wireless Network Connection ( Under Select Network Adapters to Capture). 
    With Wireless Network Connection highlighted I click properties -> Scanning options. Error pops up -" Device does not recognize the command".
    I have tried uninstalling Microsoft Network Monitor, and re-installing it. I have tried uninstalling the Wi-Fi adapters and re-installing it. I have tried restarting. I'm at a lost right now. I'm trying to capture some day on the 5 GHz band, and this is
    the only computer I have that can see it.
    Thank You

    Sorry for the delayed response.  I can't say I know how to troubleshoot this issue.  My guess is that the network driver must have changed, as there's a strong dependency on the manufacture to support this mode.  If you do still have the problem,
    perhaps see if it was updated was applied?

  • "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file."

    I am using the latest version of Photoshop CC. When I attempt to open a recent .psd file listed in the Open Recent list, I get the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." I can use the open command to open these files with no problem. The files are not damaged or missing the .psd extension and open normally except when using the Open Recent menu. OS is Mac 10.8.5. Thanks for any clues as to a fix.

    As weid as it may sound: simply don't use "Open recent...". Use Bridge to manage, find and start them in PS.

  • Aperture does not recognize that there are images to be imported on an SD card. My workaround is to copy the images from the ST card to a folder and then import the images from the folder. Aperture also imports incredibly slowly after the update to 3.4

    Aperture does not recognize that there are images to be imported on an SD card. My workaround is to copy the images from the SD card to a folder and then import the images from the folder. Aperture also imports incredibly slowly after the update to 3.4

    Check your Import settings in the Import Panel, i.e. all that might exclude the image type you want to import:
    If you did not exclude any file types, and still Aperture will not import, remove your ImageCapture preferences fro your user library:
    To remove the image capture preferences:
    If Aperture is running, quit Aperture,  and log off and on again.
    Open your user library from the Finder's Go menu: Hit Command Shift G (⌘⇧G) and then type in: ~/Library/Preferences/  then hit return.
    In the window that opens remove "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist"
    and look into the subfolder "ByHost": if there are files named com.apple.ImageCapture  something .plist  remove them too.
    then try again.
    And if that still does not help, remove the Aperture preferences as well:
    ~/Library/Preferences/aperture.plist
    Regards
    Léonie
    P.S. in MacOS Lion and later the user library ~/Library is hidden by default.
    You can reveal it also  from the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Finder > Go,   then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences".

  • When I click on buttons/pull down tabs on a variety of websites , I can see that I have pressed the button but the website does not recognize the action

    When I have visited travel websites I can not 'click' on the Calendar. I tried to buy a book and checked off to be visit as a guest - and the website did not recognize the button I had checked off. I tried to edit on 'online profile" and the website does not recognize that I have clicked the 'edit' button.
    I have not had problems before and do not understand why this has started to happen.
    I am running mac osx 10.7.5 and firefox 21

    If this was only on one or two sites, I'd suggest "Option #1" below and it's still a good idea. However, when several sites are involved, I begin to suspect an add-on. Hence, "Option #2" below.
    '''Option #1'''
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r / Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    (WIN) orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced<br>
    (MAC) Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (complete any pending transaction first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    '''Option #2'''
    Try the sites in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • Reader 11 does not recognize the default MAPI application Outlook 2013

    I am having repeatable issues with Reader not being ablet to pop open an email from the Send File command in the File Menu.
    All of the other applications such as QuickBooks and Word seem to open an email window and prepopulate it with the attachment as expected.
    Here is the screen cap:
    Note that Outlook is open and that it still does not recognize.
    I can get the webmail interface to work with the Office2013/Office365 combo, but it only dumps a blank email with the attachment in your Drafts folder.
    This problem has been shown to exist on both 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 7 and both 32 and 64 bit versions of Outlook 2013.
    This is a growing issue amongst my Office365 client base, which is a growing client base. Any help would be considered a blessing!

    Ok sorry I've taken so long to respond.  The reply button wouldn't pop up for me to reply!
    There was never a dialog box asking for me to select the program from installed programs when I open the pdf from outlook express.  But when I opened a pdf from my desktop it asked that question and I had it "always use this program to open this type of file." So I assumed that it was would work when opening from outlook express.  But it doesn't.
    I've tried unclicking the protected mode button under the preferences general section.  And finally I'm not sure how to post screenshots of the attachment thumbnail and dialog.  I'm looking all over my keyboard for a button to push I don't have a clue as to what to do!  I do have a print Scr button but when I click on it nothing happens.  I've tried holding down the shift key and the button and the alt key and print scr button but nothing happens.
    Could it be that somehow it's not recognizing ARCO.EXCH.DOCUMENT as that's what it thinks the type of document is?
    I've already created an association for pdf files and it'll open them on my desktop, just not in outlook express.

  • Lightroom does not Recognize Capture Date

    I have a lot of slides that I am scanning into Digital images.
    The Nikon CoolScan does not include a capture date in the .jpg file so I add one using the ExifPilot program.
    All other programs that I have tried correctly recognize this EXIF data, including Adobe Photoshop Elements. But the Lightroom does NOT recognize it and the file gets put into the library under "Unknown Date" Attempts to change the date with the Metadata/Edit Capture Time command do not work.
    Any Ideas on what could fix the problem?

    Yes, this is a problem, not only with files from scanner. I started a threat
    called "Date/Time, Exif and Lightroom" on March 6 about that - have a look
    there. Alas, no solution.

  • Machine does not recognize new RAM

    OK I purchases some RAM from crucial.com Here is what I bought:
    CT442008 Upgrade for a Apple Power Mac G5 (Dual 2.3GHz DDR)
    I installed the software but unfortunatelyUnfortunately, the machine does not recognize the new RAM. Both of the slots are listed as EMPTY. My question is -- is there anyway to tell whether I installed in right? Also, is this the correct RAM to buy? I'm a little confused - I would be happy if you could help!
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You don't have this 2.3 do you? The Dual Core? If so you have the wrong RAM.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP37
    If it's the right RAM for your machine make sure the side snaps are up when you put it in and press the RAM in firmly until you hear and see those snaps close down completely. Once your sure the RAM is seated well check again in System Profiler to see if it shows up.
    If it doesn't, shut down your mac. As the Hatter said, start up your mac again and hold these keys down until you hear the chime for a second time: Command, Option, P, R. Four keys total until the second chime. Then when it starts up fully go back into System Profiler and see if it shows up.
    If that still doesn't do it, shut down your Mac and pull the plug, open up your mac and touch one of those little back plates on the back where your video card is (static electricity) and press the PMU button as described on this page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1436
    Remember sometimes it can take a good deal of pressure to seat RAM. Just don't go crazy. But first make sure, looking at the top article, that that isn't the model you have. If it is *do not* try to seat that RAM.

  • I upgraded Elements but now it does not recognize Option key for Clone Stamp, Healing Brush etc.

    I upgraded Elements but now it does not recognize Option key for Clone Stamp, Healing Brush etc.

    Quit the editor, then relaunch it while holding down command+shift+option. Keep holding down the keys till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
    It wouldn't hurt to repair permissions, either.

  • IPhoto does not recognize old backup of library

    I have a iPhoto library backup disk (dvd) that dates back to 2006. Iphoto does not recognize the photos and they will not open. How do I get to see the photo's?
    Iphoto 11
    iMac 2.4 ghz intel core duo
    OS 10.6.8

    The only thing I can think of is that the Library is corrupted in some way. Unusual that the main computer can access it - though it rebuilds the thumbs each time, whiile the other two cannot. I suspect that the permissions warnings are bogus.
    Neither of the other machines would be able to read that library without updating it, and in fact, once the 9.5.1 version updates it, the 9.4.3 version wouldn't  be able to read it either.
    But either way, each library should ask to upgrade it upon opening, that the don't suggests that the Library is damaged.
    You need to decide what version you want to want to view this library with - as you can't view it with either of the other two once you upgrade it. Then from that machine rebuild the Library with iPhoto Library Manager.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • ATE does not recognize other models of measuring instruments connected through GPIB

    Hi,
    I've a ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) which has many measuring instruments connected to it through GPIB. Recently one of the oscilloscope was not working & I tried to replace with a oscilloscope of different model, the ATE does not recognize the new instrument. As the only communication means is through GPIB, I presume that the issue is on GPIB connection. Is there any setting or configuration that I must do besides setting the GPIB address at the replacement oscilloscope?

    It's also certainly possible that the ATE software was written for a specific make and mode of scope. It's two different things when the ATE software doesn't recognize the scope and when the gpib controller itself doesn't see it. Each make and model of scope will return a unique string when queried with the *IDN? command and it's common for ATE software to check this before proceeding and sometime different models of scopes from the same manufacturer will have different command sets. Do you have access to the software? Can you check what the ATE program is doing? Do what Uwe recomends first and if MAX finds the scope, I would suspect the ATE program.

  • Iphoto locks up, and does not recognize our camera consistently

    Greetings, All,
    We have two iMac computers, V10.6.8, and on one of them, iphoto continuously locks up and freezes.  We have to use a key command to escape this situation.  Also, sometimes, this same Mac does not recognize the Nikon camera which we've always used on it.  How do we remedy these problems, please?  Do we need to completely uninstall iPhoto, then reinstall it from Time Machine?  Thank you for any and all help you can send our way!  God Bless!
    Every Good Wish,
    Doc

    Good Morning, All,
    No ideas on how to take care of this situation, then?  Guess a trip to the nearest Mac store will be scheduled, and see if they can help us figure out why these two things are happening with iPhoto.  If we get it fixed there, I'll post a note here, so other who might be experiencing the same problems can learn the fix.  Take care, and God Bless!
    Every Good Wish,
    Doc
