"Siri" reads new email subjects when on headset during phone call

How do i turn this off? It happens when i'm on a call on my headset and its very troublesome.

My sister and I are having the same problem you all are encountering. We have the new iPhone 4S 64GB and are with Rogers. We actually went to Apple store yesterday and got new phones, however we still have the problem. We don't know what to think, it would make sense that it is a hardware issue, however it seems to be a limited problem (in that there isn't a massive reporting on the issue, lots of message boards talking about it etc.). We wonder if it is carrier related, somehow... we just don't know.
My sister restored her phone to factory settings and used it and still had the problem. We've tried restoring, resetting the network, nothing works (other than unplugging the hands-free set). It seems there was the same issue with the iPhone 4 when it came out. There are some older threads on this, but I don't know what the final resolution was to the problem. The postings on it seemed to stop, so maybe it cleared up? No idea.
For samchr, the problem presents as the other person hearing an echo. So, if you are speaking with your wife and she hears the echo, then it is your phone, and vice versa. As my sister and I speak to each other on our new iPhones we've worked it out. Another way to check is to unplug the hands-free set and see if the problem goes away. Which ever one of you clears up the problem by unplugging the hands-free, that's the phone that is causing the issue.
The problem is sporadic, it makes it harder to diagnose. I was out walking and had a fairly long phone conversation (12 minutes) with no issues. On the phone with my sister yesterday, it happened about 8-9 minutes into the phone call (I believe, I didn't check). Today I was speaking with my sister for just a short time, and the problem happened, but on her end this time.
It's a real puzzle. If anyone finds out anything on this, PLEASE post the solution for us on this board!

  • Cannot get Siri to read new email

    How do you get Siri to read new emails, or an old email?  I have tried both and it just says "sorry, I cannot read your email" or something similar.

    It works for me on 6.1.3.

    Try this. Settings>Safari>Block Pop-Ups>Off.
    I have an Exchange account that behaved similarly to what you are describing. I finally realized that I had to allow pop ups in order to access my mail on the server.

    I not so recently changed my email adress I associated with my Apple ID and my iCloud ID. My old email still shows up for iCloud, and won't let me change it to my new email. When I try to delete it and replace it with the proper email, it wants my password, which it won't accept because it's an invalid username.

    I had this same issue and got it resolved very simply when I contacted Apple SUpport
    Go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/ and sign into your infomation
    > Go to Manage apple id and primary email address
    > Change it to the old apple id that your device is asking for
    > Save changes
    > Go to Settings > iCloud and sign out of the infomation
    > Go back to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    > Change it back to the correct apple id
    > Go to the email address adn reverify the apple id

  • When I receive a phone call from a new number, how do I save that number to my contacts?

    When I receieve a phone call from a new number, is it possible to save that number from the incoming calls screen? Can I create a contact from the number itself without having to go to the contact list and write the number in manually?

    Thank you so much. I feel like an idiot for not figuring that out on my own, it is so simple.  But I really, really appreciate this. Thank you!!!

  • When I get a phone call or text message it will not make the sound. Just vibrate. But the switch is on normal. When I change it to vibrate the volume thing will not show. Nor will my up volume up key work. Is there any way to fix it?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • When I get a phone call and them want to save the contact, no keyboard comes up to type the name.  How do I fix that?

    When I get a phone call , then want to save the message, no keyboard comes up to type the name.  How do I fix that? 

    You can open the Phone app then tap Recents then the blue 'i" in a blue circle at the right of the number then "Create New Contact" then tap a field such as "First" name and the keyboard should appear.

  • When I receive a phone call it also rings my husbands phone?

    When I get a phone call on my IPhone 5c it also rings on my husbands iPhone 4s and vice versa?

    That is a new feature of Continuity described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    You can stop it by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off on both phones.
    You amy also want to consider using separate Apple iDs.

  • Blackberry Shuts Down when I make a phone call or access to the internet

    Please help someone, 
    I know there are similar question before. I took a look at them. but there was no solution. 
    just crossing my finger. 
    my blackberry is...
    Curve 9360
    3G wifi
    7.1 Bundle 2102 ( v 7.1.0.746  Platform 9.6.0.112)
    Hope it is enough info on my cellphone. 
    Everytime I make a phone call or use the internet, it shuts down immediately. when I received the phone call as well. 
    and I need to charge it first and then I can turn on again.
    It is not buttery consumption since the buttery sign shows almost full when I turn on again. 
    I would like to fix and use this phone at least another year. It has been 2 and half years. should work properly more!
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi everyone who gave me solutions,
    I appreciate all of your help and Im so sorry for late update. 
    I tried them, but did not work unfortunately. so I bought a new battery for $9 and now it's working very well like a new phone. 
    I will try to charge battery when it's almost gone.(not all the time) and try not to use phone while it's charging.
    I believe that it lengthens cell/battery life. 
    Thank you again for your help. 

  • My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

    Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

  • I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

    I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I change the settings so that when I make a phone call I can make my screen go black and not mute the call with my cheek or it tries to face time my call. I need to change the sensitivity or something! Please help!!

    How do I change my phone settings on my iPhone 5 so that when I make a phone call while I am on the phone call my phone stays lit up. It never goes black so I am constantly hitting other buttons while I try to talk like mute or FaceTime or speaker! Please help this is so annoying! It's like all I need to do is fix the settings somehow and I have gone through all of my settings and I can't find where to do this!

    Is the phone in a case?  Try taking it out of the case.  If that doesn't work, then your proximity sensor is broken.  You'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • IPhone 4 updated from 6.0 to 7.1.2 and now the picture no longer appears when receiving or making phone calls.  How do I fix this?

    I updated the software for my iPhone 4 from 6.0 to 7.1.2 and now pictures (contact picture/picture ID's) no longer appear (take up the entire screen) when receiving or making phone calls.  They only show in a small circle which is not convenient at all.  How do I fix this, please?

    You are welcome. I have seen numerous posts on this subject, so I suspect you are correct. It doesn't seem like a welcome change. You can send feedback to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

    Thanks for the information. It seems that you have installed an OS version higher than the one supported by your carrier on your device. Please contact your carrier to get the supported OS version and try the proximity and light sensors. Let us know if you need further assistance. Cheers. ^LFC.

  • My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?

    My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?

    Mine will get hot mostly if I'm in an area with poor reception.  The phone will juice up the power output to lock onto a signal and will cause it to get hot and battery will drain much faster.
