When I ask Siri to make a phone call the call is immediately dropped
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

When I ask Siri "What is my phone number?" Siri shows the incorrect #. It gives me a contact in my phone, which obviously isn't me. Why is this and how can I fix it?
In your settings... you have the "My info" VCARD selection with someone else and not your info... just change that and yo'll get what you're expecting to hear when you ask Siri that...
Siri settings are under Settings > General > Siri -
I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first. If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email from the phone screen. Is there a way to fix this so the phone doesn't have to be unlocked?
Apple, as I'm sure you know, now manage official phone 'unlocks' directly rather than the Newtork doing so.
When a GSM Network Provider buys a consignment of iPhone's they are locked to that carrier and may only be officially unlocked if said carrier requests it. If so, it is Apple who do this, via iTunes.
I am therefore inclined to think that part of the any generic iTunes syncing process involves the transmission of key hardware data, including IMEI, to Apple whenever the handset is synced.
If this is the case and, as each iTunes account is linked to a credit card, were Apple to maintain a database of genuinely stolen phones (ones reported to Police) they could advise said Police force when a stolen phone stuck its metaphorical head over the parapets once again? They would be able to identify the name & address of the new user.
I have spoken to the Police here in Ireland today and they regularly engage with Apple on such matters.
This may not be tracking as we know it Jim, (not using GSM Triangulation or GPS) but it's arguably even more targetted and leaves an indelible fingerprint of guilt on the thief.
The laws here are simple in this regard, if you are in possession of stolen property, knowlingly or otherwise, you forfeit the goods once the Police show up. Whether you get prosecuted depends on whether you stole the goods or were duped into purchasing them. -

Hi gregsboys,
If you are having an issue with Siri incorrectly recognizing your commands, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

I have recently started getting problems with my Siri. when I ask it to remind me, it takes the details but then doesn't allow me to add a date or time. It used to do that but no longer. What's the point in having a reminder that can't remind you?

I have put the relationships of my closer friends and family to be used when making phone calls. When I ask Siri to say "call my husband" for instance, it answers me "My name" I am not permitted to do so... Why is that? What am I doing wrong? Location services are on, and it works with anything else. I need it most for phone calls. Please help. I am using an iPhone5
If my previous tip had not worked, the alternative is to make sure FaceTime is enabled under Settings > General > Restrictions. If Restrictions are Enabled, FaceTime must be toggled to ON. -

When I ask Siri the stock price for MBL (other codes work fine), my iphone 5 crashes - does this happen to anyone else?
It doesn't shut down completely, but mid-response the Apple shows and then it pops up to put in my pin.Nope nothing yet - a few friends have true it and have the same reaction."

When I ask Siri to play a song it goes to the song but won't play the song
when I ask Siri to play a song it goes to the song but won't play the song. The song shows when I open the music app, but the bar does not move and there is no sound. Even if I hit pause then play nothing happens. If I go back to the playlists and select another playlist or song then music plays.
After doing and changing EVERYTHING on that page, I ended up re-installing Quicktime by itself and finally that solved the problem. Thank you for the advice page though, it had a lot of good information on it that related to my problem.

When i ask siri to remind me of something, will it also list on ipad and computer?

Apparently Reminders can either be a reminder or an event. If a reminder that's placed on Siri from the iPhone, it will stay ONLY on the iphone. If it's recorded as an event (not sure how to do that), it will transfer as you've said previously. I have done as everyone has said and "reminders" are not showing on anything but the iphone.

Does iTunes see your phone?
Do you have a PC or a Mac?

In itunes Store. Trying to purchase music, it sends me to verify my acct info, I do that, hit done, it asks if I still want the purchase, I select Yes and it sends me back to verify billing information. How can I get out of this darn loop and make my purchase?
Hi itunes for windows,
If you are being repeatedly prompted to authorize iTunes, even after you have already done so, you may find the following article helpful:
