Siri name and relationship problems

I am posting this as a form of bug report. I do not expect any of the regular posters to have a solution but someone at Apple needs to revise the Siri recognition process.
First of all, I have set up a specific contact as my "father", even deleted and reassigned the relationship manually and Siri keeps telling me that it (she?) does not know who my father is. Frustrating to say the least.
What makes it worse is that he is a "junior" and I am a "third".
When I attempt to send a text message to Bob Hathaway Junior, Siri keeps trying to send a text message to me as Bob Hathaway, with the word "Junior" in the body of the text.
I'm a little surprised that the system is stumbling on that kind of naming issue, but there it is.
I hope I don't have to wait TOO long before there's an update to deal with this.

No, that is between you and Siri.

  • I am receiving the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' problem on Adobe Muse CC 2014 and I cannot access the xml file that is supposed to fix this issue?

    I am a PC user and I have Adobe Creative Cloud Muse 2014. I have received the 'Could not sign you in [Access denied: 530]. Check your user name and password' error when trying to upload my muse site to my ftp host, GoDaddy. I have successfully done this in the past and only recently it has stopped working. I looked online at the FAQ Adobe Muse Help | Uploading an Adobe Muse Site to a third-party hosting service and it said to download the ftpprefs.xml file but this file simply leads to a blank page that says /*Not found*//*Not found*/.
    Can someone direct me to a working page with this file or provide a different solution? Thank you!

    Hello,
    As you are getting error [Access denied: 530] it means issue is with access. Either the username and password you are entering is incorrect or you do not have proper permissions.
    I would suggest you to contact Godaddy to either reset password or reset the permissions.
    Regards

  • I phone 5 problems; Siri, music, and wifi problems

    On my iphone 5, music will randomly start playing, and also Siri will randomly turn on without pushing any buttons. Another problem I'm having is, my phone won't say connected to my home wifi. Anybody else having these problems, is it just a iOS7.4 problem that they have to update?and do you know how to fix it?

    Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
    iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
    Then...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore

    No, that is between you and Siri.

  • Iphone 4 voice Dial used to work great, but now, I can't get it to recognize voice commands. When i give it a command to call someone, it ends up repeating someone elses name and starts the call. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    I have an I phone 4 with 32g.  The voice dial used to work just fine, but now it doesn't recognize the words and ends up saying someone elses name and starts calling the wrong person.  It even won't recognize a number when spoken to it and speaks back and calls the wrong numbers.
    Lately, the phone has really slowed down.  I am not sure if this is the problem.. I have closed all the open apps and deleted any extra picture off the card and extra songs that I have downloaded and the slow problem still exists. 
    Would a reset work to restore the phone to factory settings and if I then resync the phone, would all contacts pictures and songs be restored?

    What is wrong with your Mac?  You still haven't told us what the problem is. Is the computer still under warranty or Apple Care?
    the next time i attempted to use the computer it wasn't fine
    What do you mean by "wasn't fine".  We can't see your computer so you'll have to describe what your're experiencing in detail without the editorializing.

  • Made a bad change to login options under user preferences, changed from "List of users" to "Name and password". I shut the computer down, now I can't login in when I turn the computer back on.  What can I do to fix this problem?

    Have Migrated data from IMAC to Macbook twice.  Because I had too many admin ids under user and accounts preferences, I was trying not to delete the extras but that they wouldn't all show at login time.  Under Login Options, I clicked out  "List of Users" and clicked in "Name and password".  Can't remember whether I did anything else.  I shut down the computer and turned it back on to test the change.  I get a dark grey screen with all my admin ids in circled pictures plus one for guest, but doesn't let me do anything with any of the admin ids.  I clicked on any one and nothing happens.  IF i click on the guest circle, it gives me a message that the computer will restart with only Safari allowed.
    Since I haven't been able to connect my macbook to my IMac so I can login to the macbook through the Imac, I can't get to my macbook.  There must be a way to fix this problem.  I expected to see places to enter name and password but nothing is allowed to enter.  Please help!

    First thing I would do would be to boot in to Lion Recovery (Command+R on boot) and run Disk Utility, both disk and permissions repair.

  • Problem with Recognition of Admin's Name and Password

    I am having issues with my system not recognising my admin name and password. For example if I click the lock on the Accounts Preferences page to make changes or try to shut my system down with other users logged in I get a similar message telling me the admin name/password authentication pair is not recognised. I believe other apps which use the admin name/password have similar problems. Also Software Update won't run as it won't recognise the admin name/password pairing.
    However I can login using the name/password pair and I can open the login Keychain with this name/password pair. Just to check my kids hadn't changed the admin login I have changed the password using the reset password utility on the installation disk but the problem remains.
    I have a nagging suspicion that a HD clean up utility may have done something but this could be a red herring
    Any ideas? My only ideas left are to set up another admin account to see if this cures things but I suspect if it does and I try and use this new account I will end having to change the admin privileges of files throughout the system! I also have the option of using a bootable clone startup disk I made a couple of weeks ago using Carbon Copy Cloner but I am not sure if the problem existed then.
    Any help welcomed!

    Solved!
    But to be honest I'm not sure really how. I had to switch the mac off using the power off switch (as I couldn't shut down from the GUI). Then I started it up holding down the 'D' key - in fact I did this on the wrong basis as I thought this would allow me to boot up from my clone external startup disk (it doesn't - it forces the internal hard drive to be the boot drive not an external one). 'D' must also stand for Divine inspiration. I then found the problem to have gone so I took the opportunity to verify and repair permissions using Disk Utility - there were a few repairs required on system level looking files) and everything seems fine (fingers crossed)

  • I'm trying to access a forum that requires a user name and password.  When I do it on my mac it tells me the password is incorrect but when I do it on my iPad, I can access it without any problem.  I can confirm the username and password are the same

    I am trying to access a forum for which you need a username and password but it keeps telling me the username/password i've entered are incorrect.  Bizarrely, when I enter the same username/password combination on my iPad, it grants access without any problem. 
    What could be causing this, is it an issue with cookies, caches or similar.  How can I resolve it?  The forum administrator is at a loss as to what the problem is.

    Try the following steps in Safari to see if they help:
    1) First try clearing the Safari cache.  To do this pull down the Safari menu and select 'Empty cache...', then try logging into the site again.
    2) If the issue continues then reset Safari by pulling down the Safari menu and select'Reset Safari...'. You will be presented with a list of items that can be reset. I suggest selecting the 'Reset saved names and passwords', and 'Remove all website data' options at a minimum.
    Here is a list of the options and what they do. I pulled it from the Safari help page.
    Clear history:
    Clears the list of webpages you viewed.
    Reset Top Sites:
    Clears any changes you made to Top Sites, such as adding or pinning sites. If you also clear your history, your Top Sites page reverts to showing the webpage previews displayed when you first installed Safari.
    Remove all webpage preview images:
    Clears any thumbnail images Safari saved of webpages you viewed.
    Clear the Downloads window:
    Clears the list of files you downloaded from websites. Only the names are removed; the files themselves are still on your disk until you remove them.
    Remove all website icons:
    Removes website icons, which are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the Safari address field and bookmarks list, and other places. These icons are stored on your computer.
    Remove saved names and passwords:
    Removes user names and passwords that Safari automatically fills in at websites that require them (if the AutoFill feature is turned on).
    Remove other AutoFill form text:
    Removes some personal information, such as telephone numbers, that Safari uses to automatically fill in forms on webpages (if the AutoFill feature is turned on). Removing AutoFill information does not remove information from your address book.
    Close all Safari windows:
    If you don’t close all Safari windows, someone could use the Back and Forward buttons to view the webpages you visited.
    Reset all location warnings:
    Clears any information websites saved about your location.
    Remove all website data:
    Removes cookies, tracking information, and other data that websites stored on your computer.

  • There was a problem connecting to the server "Time Capsule".  The share does not exist on the server. Please check the share name, and then try again.

    The following error pop's up as an [OK] dialogue box after logging in the iMac,
    There was a problem connecting to the server "Time Capsule".
    The share does not exist on the server. Please check the share name, and then try again."
    As it happens, a connection to the Time Capsule is established usually, anyway. On occasion it doesn't.
    I have a Volume, Data, on the capsule, which similarly, usually mounts, but occassionally doesn't, with access permissions denied.
    Any suggestions on how begin to work out how to achieve networking seamlesness?

    First, restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it. If other devices on the network can see it, you can skip this step.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    Click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Advanced button, then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Click Renew DHCP lease.
    Try again to back up.
    If you still can't, open the Time Machine preference pane and delete the TC from the list of backup destinations. You may have to unlock the settings by clicking the lock icon in order to do this. Then add it back.

  • TS3276 I receive a pop up from ICal saying the server does not recognize me user name and password.  This started yesterday.  I have no problems with receiving or sending emails through Mail

    I receive a pop-up from ICal saying the server does not recognize my user name and password for my me.com email address.  This started yesterday and occurs about every 5 minutes or so.  There are no problems with receiving or sending email through Mail.  I did change me email password several days ago but have no problems sending/receiving since then.

    I fixed the problem.  I opened Preferences in ICal and entered my new password.  No more pop-ups

  • Problem with website name and hyperlinks

    searching for the website name and clicking on it on google or simply typing it into the web search bar, it loads without a problems. the website is on the internet. However, when I hyperlink/send the name of the website to someone via email to announce it, the hyperlink doesn't work, it simply opens up an external page to whatever wi-fi server you are using and says it cannot find the page... whatever the website name is. why does the internet fail to load this site as a hyperlink via email but works fine on google or by typing it into the search bar?

    the website name is www.ashingdonunitedfreechurch.org.uk.
    typing it in the search bar of the browser or clicking on the link on google works, however when I send this via email to someone to show them the site, it doesn't load. depending on the wi-fi server, I use talktalk, a different window will appear from the wi-fi server saying it cant find that website, although of course it does exist.
