Siri hears me, but doesn't listen

new iPhone 4s and Siri screws everything up that i say. i have even tried slow talking, but still nothing.
90% of the time she starts calling someone. appointments don't work, temperature questions generally give the time or call someone.
play music works.
looking for help before i throw her into a river.

Siri understands me but doesn't work?

I have a a slight British accent but I have lived in Canada for the past few years so I speak with a more Canadian accent. When I use the Siri it understands what I say. For example if I said 'What is the temperature', it will come up that I said 'What is the temperature' but then Siri will say 'Sorry there is something wrong'.
As if it recognizes what I say but doesn't understand? I've even tried speaking in an American accent! Does anyone else have this problem?

Mshttpd runs but doesn't listen

The version info:
This is effectively a new installation. User accounts and mailstore were migrated from a previous system running 5.2hf1.21.
iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 Patch 2 (built Jul 14 2004)
libimta.so 5.2 Patch 2 (built 19:30:12, Jul 14 2004)
SunOS mserv1 5.9 Generic_117171-14 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440
Some other config related info:
running Sun Cluster 3.1 and HAstoragePlus, ie no globally mounted filesystems. Also, I wanted the ability to bounce the ldap server independant of iMS, so the ldap resource is NOT listed as a dependancy of the ha-ims resource. (yeah, I know it's not what the "book" says. :-))
I'm running IMAPS and HTTPS using a cert signed by our own CA. This CA has signed certs for quite a few other products, including DS5p2 and they all work fine.
Now here's the problem. The mshttpd and imap daemons don't maintain the SSL listener. I have HTTPS running on port 444 (because its one more and a web server runs on the other half of the cluster). The imaps runs on the default, 993. The imap and http logs show no indication of it failing to start nor any other problem. I should add that it appears the SSL listener doesn't start, but the non-ssl listener works fine.
The odd part is that sometimes the SSL enabled daemons will start-up and run properly. We only have about 600 users. They currently use imap and I want to get them on imaps and/or https. Any ideas?
One more question. Is it possible to truss these processes? Currently, I can't because the HA agent effectively puts a trace on the process and truss comes back with an error. Any workaround to this?
Thanks,
Roger S.

Siri Shows Up But Doesn't Respond

On my 4s, the Siri icon, etc., shows up but there is no voice and no response, it's as though she's gone deaf. Don't know what to do.

Hi jaygeechitown,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Here are a couple of things to try to address this issue:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
After general troubleshooting, try these specific steps for troubleshooting Siri:

Bring your phone and $199 to the Apple store for an out of warranty exchange of your phone. You clearly broke it when you dropped it.

My Ipod Froze And It Froze On Pandora And I Can Hear Pandora But I Click The Home Button And It Doesn't Work? Help Me

Try this:
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.

How long did you let it charge? It may take 30 minutes before the iPad responds when the battery is completely drained. Let it charge for at least 30 minute using the wall charger. Then rest the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.
If the iPad restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is 100%.
If the iPad still does not start make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Siri only works when I raise to speak, but when I hold down the home button and Siri pops up, it doesn't pick up any sound. How do I fix it?

Apple TV receives Airplay feed from PC but doesn't read iTunes library

Picked up a new Apple TV this week and haven't gotten Home Sharing to work reliably at all between it and my Win7 PC. My only workaround has been through Airplay and the Remote app on my 4S.
So far I've:
- Opened all relevant ports on my router (Home Sharing still drops after one file is read - regardless of format or length)
- Set up appropriate rules for iTunes on my firewall/disabled it (Home Sharing disconnects after one file)
- Reserved IP addresses for all my network devices (no change)
- Rebooted everything a gazillion times (works for one song/video, then loses it)
Everything is running wirelessly with strong signals from the router on every device.
I believe the problem originates from my computer's end of the Home Sharing setup. Once I get a video going on the ATV, I use my iPhone's remote app and notice that my PC library eventually disappears from the available devices in the list. Searching through the ATV's "computers" tab in Remote gives me the following message: "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries that have Home Sharing...". If I stop the movie, the ATV still lets me browse my PC library but doesn't actually load any of the media selected. Eventually it realizes it's not connected and gives me the "activate Home Sharing" message as well.
However, when this is all said and done, Remote and Airplay have been working fine. I can access my library through the Remote then get my PC to Airplay the media to the ATV without a hitch. Managed to get 3 videos to play end-to-end and listen to an entire music album. The only weird thing is my library icon on the Remote greys out for some reason but it still connects and plays everything when selected.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!

You need to add all the music files into the blank new itunes library.
Either have 2 windows open (itunes & win explorer), and drag the files from Win Explorer over into the itunes main library window.
Another way is to use the itunes menu > file > Add Folder to library and add your top-level music folder.

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

Hey shahbazfromgbr,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
3. While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
4. Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
5. For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
7. Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
9. Restart the iPhone.
10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Can't Hear Videos, but i can hear 'em?

i have a video on my ipod that i can see but i can't hear. whats up with that?

"Can't Hear Videos, but i can hear 'em?"
Eh?
Quicktime doesn't play "muxed" video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
You need a 3rd party converter such as Videora, or MPEG Streamclip to convert the video file.
The file must meet the following specifications to play correctly.
H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.
-or-
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.
Incidentally, the iPod video forum is here.

This forum you are in now is for older iPods. : )

I can't hear sound but audiwaves are showing up

I recently had this problem. My program was working perfectly but one day, when I plugged my headset, there was absolutely no sound. What i don't understand is that the audiowaves are moving but I hear nothing. I tried: the bars and tones things, changing audio material even completely changing editing program but it still doesn't work.
I really need your help
PS:I have a usb headset if that can change something.

Hey, I think its just my pc that as problem because my speakers work but my
headset doesn't works so its probably my pc. I am pretty sure its a
connection problem(ex:usb ports). Finally, I really appreciated your help

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

When I lock my screen it says phone is locked and whenever I click anything it reads it out but does not let me slide to unlock the screen often but when it does it just reads of my pass code and letters but doesn't unlock my phone .

Hello TaylerLauren,
I read your post, and it sounds as though the Voice Over feature has been activated. I have linked to an article that will instruct you on how to use it, and the location in Setting where you can turn it off:
iOS: Configuring accessibility features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5018
Voice Over information from the iPhone User Guide:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use iPhone without seeing it.
VoiceOver tells you about each item on the screen as you select it. The VoiceOver cursor (a rectangle) encloses the item and VoiceOver speaks its name or describes it.
Touch the screen or drag your finger over it to hear the items on the screen. When you select text, VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the item and provide instructions—for example, “double-tap to open.” To interact with items, such as buttons and links, use the gestures described in Learn VoiceOver gestures on page 130.
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound, then selects and speaks the first item on the screen (typically in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen becomes locked or unlocked.
Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specified in International settings, which may be influenced by the Region Format setting in Settings > General > International. VoiceOver is available in many languages, but not all.
VoiceOver basics
Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures you use to control iPhone. When VoiceOver is on, you must use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPhone—even to turn VoiceOver off.
Turn VoiceOver on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, or use the Accessibility Shortcut.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
BobbyD
