Siri stopped reading me my messages in iOS 8 on my 4S

I upgraded to iOS 8 on my iPhone 4S. Now Siri won't read me my messages at all. I've gone through the Apple troubleshooting guide and it is still not working. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

  • Siri stopped reading my text messages

    A few weeks ago, Siri stopped reading me my text messages. I used to always be able to say, "read me my last text message" and Siri would promptly read it to me, ask me if I wanted to respond, then let me respond by voice as well.
    I was on iOS 7 and NOTHING changed, but one day a few weeks or so ago, Siri started just telling me that I "have no new messages" even when I clearly had new messages that just came in.
    I updated to iOS 8 the other day thinking it would probably fix it.
    It didn't. I can't figure out how to get it to work again.
    I have not completely erased the phone and reinstalled iOS 8. I might try that, I just wanted to see if there's another known fix first before going through all of that.
    Googling has turned up plenty of others who have had this bug too, but I can't find anything recently or anything that has actually fixed it for people.
    Any known help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi DigitalDuderino, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know this issue must be very frustrating considering that this issue just started happening without you making changes. I would recommend working through the attached article’s troubleshooting steps to help isolate and resolve this issue.

  • Why does Siri not read my text messages to me?

    Why does my Siri not read my text messages to me?

    If your phone is locked with a passcode and you ask siri to read any new text message, Siri tells you to unlock it first, which you do by entering the passcode and the moment you do that Siri says 'OK' and starts reading your message without you doing anything else.
    However if you have not set the passcode in your phone and if your phone is locked (which means you have yet not done 'slide to unlock') and you ask siri to read the message then you will hear nothing..there will be silence ..and then 'siri will ask you to reply or read it again'. If you want to hear the message then first slide to unlock your phone and then ask siri to read for any new text messages and you will start hearing your message.
    Let me know if this does not work.
    Cheers

  • Siri stopped reading messages...

    Anybody else got this? iOS 8.0 came out and for a brief period I could say 'Hey, Siri' (pause) 'Read Last Message' whilst driving, absolutely brilliant, it meant I didn't have to try to catch it when I heard it come in.
    Now it just tells me 'You have no new messages' even though I know I just gone one.

    argh, should say iOS 8.1 on my installed version, 8.0.2 is when it started happening. Persists with 8.1.

  • Siri stopped reading my texts

    Siri used to read me new text messages when I asked her to. She stopped and won't even show the message on screen. How do I fix this?

    Read the User's Guide, it details basic troubleshooting.

  • Siri and reading new text messages.

    Why is Siri no longer responding "would you like to reply or read again" after reading back a new text message?

    I never said there wasn't a change. What you expect and what Apple is planning or doing may not always be the same thing.  Speculation is prohibited on these forums but, I'll repeat what I said before and hope you can figure it out: Apple has said there will be new features and improvements in Siri with iOS 7. Sometimes, features get removed for various reasons in beta products and are put back in the later releases.
    And, since you've never beta tested a product for two years, you must not have used Gmail until rather recently.

  • How to stop reading foreign queue message from MDB using weblogic 6.1? thanks,

    Hi, I am using weblogic 6.1 to communicate with IBM MQseries foreign
    queue. I use the asychronous way "onMessage()"(properly the only
    known way) to listen the messages from the queue. I like to stop
    receiving messages if my south bound stream has problems and not able
    to process the message, I would like to stop fetching the message with
    my MDB(message driven bean) untill the down stream problem is cleared.
    As weblogic uses container to create the multiple session and
    connections internally, how can I efficiently stop the message
    delivery, do I have to locate all the connections and issue
    connection.stop()for each one, or there is better way to do this.
    Thanks in advance.

    If you never use FaceTime on your Mac, open the FaceTime app on it and sign out. Also, the following instructions are from Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    Turn off iPhone cellular calls
    To turn off iPhone cellular calls on your iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
    On your Mac, open the FaceTime app and go to FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings and deselect the iPhone Cellular Calls option.

  • Siri has stopped reading new iMessages when iOS 8 came out.  I have not updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.  Any ideas?

    I use Siri all the time.  I have found it very helpful.  When the new iOS 8 came out, Siri stopped reading new iMessages.  I have done all of the usual reboots, etc without any luck.  Since it happened the same time as the new iOS 8 ( even tho I did not update ) I wonder if there is some other issue.  Have you heard of this issue and do you have any suggestions?
    Thanks

    SSiri has also stopped reading my new text messages. She just says "you have no new messages." This also occurred at the same exact time I upgeaded to iOS 8. I have a 5s

  • Siri not reading new messages in iOS 8

    Ever since I have starting using iOS 8, Siri no longer reads my new messages to me.  In my car, with my iPhone 6 connected to my car speaker via Bluetooth, I hear a ping that I have a new text message (or to be more accurate, a new iMessage).  So I ask Siri to read me my new messages, which always used to work.  But now, Siri claims that I have no new messages.  If I look at the phone I can see the new message.
    If I know that the message came from Person X, and I ask Siri to read me my last message from Person X, it will instead read the second-to-last message from Person X until I go to my iPhone and launch the Messages app and read the message.  Then, if I ask Siri to read the last message from Person X, Siri will correctly read the last message.
    I see various people posting similar problems for the last two years, but I haven't seen any solutions.  And yes, I have restarted my iPhone and that doesn't fit.  In fact, I kept my fingers crossed that this would be fixed in iOS 8.1, and then 8.1.1, but no luck.

    Well, this kinda solves my problem. I seem to recall that it would still suggest words (but only one at a time), whereas now it doesn't. It does offer corrections if I fat-finger something. Us users are never satisfied! ;-)

  • Does any one know EXACTLY how to get siri to READ text messages out loud ?

    How do I get siri to READ my text messages ? What do I "say " to siri ?

    Just reading through this post and the best way to Reset SIRI is to go to Settings>General>Siri and then turn SIRI off. This erase's anything SIRI has learn't about you, all you have to do then is turn SIRI back on and it is reset. It is not necessary to reset the iPhone itself.
    SIRI can only read back unread Txt messages, if you have opened a Txt message and already read it you can not have SIRI read it back to you. Don't forget SIRI is still in BETA and will take a little while while Apple tweek this technology.
    Cheers.

  • How can i get my iPhone to automatically read my text messages?

    like the iphone ads show, how can i get Siri to automatically read my text messages as they come in?

    Enabling preview for text messages will allow SIRI to read the text messages during a locked screen, as long as Siri is turned on for lock screen use.

  • Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5?

    Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5? I've tried the disable and reboot but continue to get the network error.

    Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
    It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or  for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
    But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
    Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

  • I have my Dad's apple ID etc, but he has an iphone and i have an Ipod Touch then on IMessage i can read all the messages he recieves and sends and he can read all the messages i send and recieve how do i stop this?

    Hi
    I have my Dad's apple ID etc, but he has an iphone and i have an Ipod Touch then on IMessage i can read all the messages he recieves and sends and he can read all the messages i send and recieve how do i stop this? But i still want to send messages to him.
    Thank You

    . You do not need a seperate Apple ID. One one device you just need to go to Settings>Messages and add another/different Messaging email address and delete the common Apple ID address. Also see:

  • Siri stopped working. I see message, "HOw can I help you" but do not hear any beeps or response indicating that my voice message is being heard. I cant find Siri on Settings. should it be there? what can i do to get it working again? thanks much

    Question? Siri stopped working. I see the written message ," How can I help you", but my voice does not seem to pick up. No beeps at all.
    I tried going to Settings to look for Siri and it is not listed there. Should it be?? Not sure what is wrong or how i can get my voice activation to work on Siri . thanks for your help

    Try a reset: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.
