Why can't I use SIRI and dictation on my iPad2 with release 6.1?

Why is SIRI and dictation not available on Ipad2?  I have the latest release of IOS 6.1.

Siri requires at least an iPad 3.
Here's an explanation of what features require which hardware.
iOS 6: Which software features does my iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch support?

    why can't I use siri after updated to ios 6.1

    Check your settings to make sure Siri is actually enabled.  Sometimes I find that Siri will disable during the updating process.  Oh, and it should be iOS 6.0 not 6.1.  6.1 doesn't exist...yet.

  • Why can't I use Siri or GPS while traveling in auto? Works at home, hotels, etc.

    Why can't I use Siri or the GPS features while traveling in a vehicle? Works in home, shops,hotels, and other fixed places.

    You need to be more specific about what doesn't work. The GPS works for me in a vehicle; when used with Google Maps its far more useful than the very expensive navigation system that was factory installed in my car.

  • Why can't i use the radio on my nano 7g with bluetooth

    why can't i use the radio on my nano 7g with bluetooth. i wanted to use wireless feature at work but i only use the radio at work , so i bought bluetooth stereo headphones by plantronics, got the backbeat 903, at wal-mart  . got home got it all set up and works fine but not for radio , i'm so dissaponted and am thinking i might take them back and continue using the wire ware , but then again i like listening to my podcast while doing dishes and chores at home so the bluetooth would be better for that .

    i have sent a feedback form to apple about this problem . i hope that they work on a sulotion for it .

  • When my phone is locked, why can I still use Siri to call and text?

    So basically yesterday I was playing around on the lock screen with Siri.. And I noticed i can still call, text and search the Internet from the lock screen.  Is this supposed to be possible? or a bug Apple have missed in the current version IOS?  I only ask because surely if I lose my phone, any random member of the public could potentially use my phone to dial any number they wish.. even call abroad and run a phenomonly high phone bill very quickly. 
    Not having a moan just suprised it's possible to do this.. What's the point of a security lock code / fingerprint scanner if anyone can pick up my phone and use it?
    Thanks in advance.

    So, when you're using Siri, how are you activating it?  By pressing the Home Button?
    Do you have Touch ID enabled?
    Are you using a finger on the Home Button that is enrolled in the Touch ID?

  • Why can't i use siri to get directions to one of my contacts

    If i ask siri to get directions to one of my contacts it says that it doesn't have an address for the contact even though all the information is stored in the contact

    The same reason why you can't use it under iOS5. It's exclusive to devices since the iPhone 4S.
    (for selling new products)
    So iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.
    Thinking about other features, you may be interested in 3D-Maps, but there for, you need an A5 CPU or better.
    So iPad2, iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.

  • Why can't i use wifi and bluetooth at the same time?

    I recently bought a Philips docking speaker that has bluetooth connectivity for streaming music wirelessly from my Ipod Touch. The bluetooth/speaker works great, but, my Touch won't allow me to be online AND use the bluetooth at the same time. This is really annoying when you want to listen to music and check your emails. Am I doing something wrong?? Any  help would be gratefully received.

    I can use by BT headphones while my iPod is connected to the internet via wifi with no problems. I am uncertain how the Philips' system works.  Does it have its own BT transmitter/receiver or doe it use the iPods to stream to its speaker?

  • Why can't I use 'Control and Arrow' to zoom with Leopard?

    Hi guys,
    I've lost the ability to quick track zoom since installing Leopard. When I press Control and one of the four vertical or horizontal arrows, the Spaces icon shows and shoves my Logic out of the way.
    I hope that there's some way to disable this function so it will enable me to use my beloved Zoom again.
    Please help!!!

  • Answer to my question: Why can I not use Premiere Elements 12 on my PC with WIndows 8.1 when the video is done with the same software on a PC with Windows 7?

    i got an answer to use archive function from Mr. Romano:
    I did as you said, but it did not work, I get the dummy video with no real video.
    I had no menu yet on the video.
     What came in my mind when I read your e-mail, on one PC is WIndows 8.1 64 bit and on the other Windows 7 32 bit.
    When I load the videos from the camrecorder (tape) with Premiere Elements without doing something, I can switch to the other PC and it works. 
    Regards

    How did you go about transferring the Premiere Elements 12 project on Windows 7 64 bit to Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit.
    Therein is what I believe is your problem. You in all likelihood do not have a codec problem of any kind, rather Premiere Elements 12 project on Windows 8.1 64 bit with disconnect between it source media and the project file. Here is how it goes.
    When you import a file into Premiere Elements project, what you have in Premiere Elements is a copy of the original which is still at its hard drive save location. But the project must trace back to that original on its hard drive save location.
    You may have the project.prel (project file) opening in Premiere Elements 12 on the second computer, but what I suspect to be the case is that you do not have the project media on that second computer.
    If so....On the first computer, archive the project with File Menu/Project Archiver and its Copy Project option. Transfer the resulting saved Copied Folder to a USB Flash Drive which will be used to transfer the Copied Folder to the second computer. In the second computer, open the Copied Folder, right click the project.prel file in the Copied Folder, select Open With, and then Premiere Elements 12.
    Did you set up disc menu in the Premiere Elements 12 Windows 7 64 bit project?
    Please review and consider the above and let us know if any or all of that applies to your situation.
    Thank you.

  • How can I set my privacy tighter with Siri and Dictation?

    OK First of all, Apple needs to stop with the restriction of what you can say in posts. They keep deleting my stuff without allowing my QUESTION to be answered.
    First of all, when did this massive invasion of my privacy happen? Did it happen with the latest update to iOS 8.1? I know I did not have these pop ups until this update happened this week.
    I would like to know how to use Siri and Dictation WITHOUT such a massive invasion of my privacy?
    Did I ever have such privacy prior to iOS 8.1?
    I went to dictate a text message to my husband today and I get a pop up telling me that ALL my information is going to be shared. There is a "learn more" link and I click that and it has this long diatribe on how
    Apple takes the things I say and dictate and records them and sent to them to process my requests. My device will also send Apple other information, such as my name and nickname; the names, nicknames, and relationship with me (e.g. "my dad") of my address book contacts, song names in my collection, and HomeKit-enabled devices in my home (e.g., "living room lights") (collectively, your "User Data"). All of this data is used to help Siri and Dictation understand me better and recognize  what I say. It is not linked to other data that Apple may have from my use of other Apple services...
    there is a lot more but suffice it to say, it does NOT 'match' what is said about Siri and Dictation on the Apple privacy page. The phone privacy contract description has MORE things listed that are being recorded, used and stored.

    It only matches what I quoted. There is a lot more in the phone.
    I also had a lot more in my original post but Apple censored and then deleted it because they decided it was a rant.
    Apple's policy in my phone's privacy policy says a lot more.
    Apparently from your answer I am stuck with a massive invasion of my privacy? Are you so very comfortable with having everything you say recorded? What if you worked in a high security industry?
    I also asked if this was in effect prior to this latest update or not.
    What I had to omit. Check your phone's privacy page and compare to apple's web page I linked ( Settings > General > Keyboard >Dictation & Settings > General > Siri) and click on the About Siri or Dictation privacy...
    It goes on to tell me I can restrict Siri's and Dictation's ability completely by turning it off.
    It tells me that my personal information, voice recording and other things collected may be retained for a period of time to generally improve Siri, Dictation an functionality in other Apple products and services. <-- this right here contradicts the paragraph I quoted  by saying it indeed DOES use it for other Apple things. Also, HOW LONG is this "period of time"?
    If I want to 'erase' this information I can simply turn off then on Siri and or Dictation and lose what I have had recorded on me. THIS fully restarts the "learning" process all over again and in turn NEGATES all the stuff it learned in the past. The KICKER is that since apple "retains what it collects for a period of time" HOW does turning the services off truly "erase" what was taken in the past?
    Why can't the learning process be done directly on the phone itself without it being RECORDED and STORED by Apple?
    Now, before you go off and say how Apple respects my privacy, I know all of that. I just don't believe or trust it since all this iCloud hacking has been happening lately AND I am VERY conscious of what I put "out there" for all to see and take. I don't use social networking either due to the massive invasion of my privacy. Plus I find it silly. I will not be reduced to a low level of conversation where the simple "like" is the equivalent of a reply.

  • Why can't I tell Siri "No" to stop dialing a wrong number? It's embarrassing to keep telling the same people over and over that I mistakenly dialed their number. Even if I yell "stop" or "no" it keeps dialing. Very frustrating.

    Why can't I tell Siri "No" to stop dialing a wrong number? It's embarrassing to keep telling the same people over and over that I mistakenly dialed their number. Even if I yell "stop" or "no" it keeps dialing. Very frustrating. Even very simple names. And I talk on the phone for a living. Which is why I need to use Siri to save me time. I speak very clearly. Because of this problem, I've had to even add special code letters before people's names to increase the chances of Siri getting it right, which is only about 70% of the time.

    That is not a feature of Siri. Submit your feedback requesting such a feature directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Note that yelling at the phone does not improve the chances that Siri will understand you.

  • Siri and dictation can't hear me on my 5s

    Siri and dictation can't hear me. I've reset, restarted, but no go!
    Any ideas??

    Hi victorfromkennewick,
    That definitely sounds frustrating! Do you have a case or anything else that may be blocking the microphone? If so, try removing it:
    Get help with Siri - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203548
    Make sure that Siri can hear you clearly
    If Siri can't understand what you're saying, follow these steps:
    - Make sure the microphones aren't blocked.
    - If you're using a case, try removing it.
    - Try turning your device off and then on again.
