Siri wont call contact

Siri has stopped being able to call my office mobile when i ask it to. Previously have had no problems. It can call other contacts fine. My office mobile contact works if i find it manually and dial it. I have turned phone off and on. Any ideas?

found out that this is the problem with phone nubers format. my country isnt suported so siri wont call for me :P
think ill switch back to simple voice control untill apple change things.

  • Siri wont call contacts

    I have read in other blogs that SIRI is having the same problem in several countries,  i hae also noticed that i has somenthing to do witn the way siri recognizes the phone numbers EG.  (xxx) xxxx-xxxx  or  xxxxxxxxxx  (without any separation).
    My question is if someone was able to solve  this situation or not yet?  if you did , how you did it
    thanks

    Open Siri by holding down the Home button and say, "Siri, call me <enter what you want here>."

  • Siri wont call people or search internet (im from UK), please help

    Basically i got my new iphone at the weekend, all was working well, siri included. now when i say for example call hayley, it says: "calling hayley mobile....." and just stays there doing nothing, same as if i say search internet

    any ideas?
    Cheers

  • Siri wont call me by any other name

    Sir will not call me by any other name than Will on my new iphone 5. Anytime i ask here to call me anything else whatever it may be she says "Sorry Will, i cant do that". why is this?

    What name is Siri giving?  Is this the name used in the primary contact?

  • I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. Help please

    I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. I can call the same numbers manually so it's not my network. Any help would be appreciated.

    This sounds like an international issue? Although I can not see why? I brought my phone in Australia and operating it in Indonesia, I have the same issues.... Otherwise Siri works fine, even texting (SMS) to local numbers siri works well, but dialing local number it just wont work...! I will try using my Australian SIM card and see if that is the reason.. I tried changing the number in the contacts and took out the international prefix, I turned the international assist on and off still nothing.. How frustrating. I called apple, the technican had know idea and we to his supervisor, had to wait fro 40 miuntes and then I hung up..
    PLEASE HELP..!

  • My N79 wont call out!! please help

    can any one please help, my nokia n79 wont call out when i press the green button. it allows me to call out when i dial the number in manually but when  go to my conacts and press the green botton it does nothing yet the green button works when i need to get on to my last numbers dialed!!
    im so confused....please help!!

    try the following
    cred for rad 24
    With all these operations I recommend you TAKE OUT MEMORY CARD and DO A BACK UP OF YOUR STUFF!!!
    NOTE: In front of the hash key ( #) there is also a STAR key that people often miss and state that the code does not work.
    1.. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data) Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.
    2.*#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    3. hard reset - hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, /GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. ) For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • Siri making calls problem

    I have an iphone5s,everytime I try to use Siri to make a call.... It says can't call (contact) using that number. I have turned Siri on and off several times but the problem persists. Any advice or help to resolve this issue? I'm on iOS 7.1.1

  • How do I remove a 'wife' from Siri. I  I ask Siri to call or send a message.

    How do I remove a 'wife' from iPhone. I told Siri that my partner was my wife then I married her and changed her contact details and now Siri thinks I have two wives and asks which one when I ask Siri to call or send a message.

    Siri uses the relationship value from contacts to know who your wide is, so one of the contacts definitely has 'wife' marked in it, which you can easily delete in the contacts app. If it's not showing up, I'd suggest looking at where your contacts are synced to, because sometimes icloud contacts, gmail contacts or iphone contacts can be stored separetely (if you have played with the settings and chenged the default behaviour at all).

  • When i ask siri to call me by my name she thinks im saying to voice dial someone

    i just got my iphone so i asked siri to call me by my name (Nicole) and she thought i was saying call nicole and like voice dial her. what should i say to make it mean to call me by my name.

    You need to set yourself up as a contact (in the contacts app), then go to Settings - General - Siri - My Info and select yourself. Then Siri will know you by name.
