Why can't iPad 2 have Siri

iPad 2 should have Siri.

Why? Apple did not promise Siri when you bought your iPad.
It's probably due to the RAM and processor limitations.
iPad: RAM - 256MB, Processor - 1 GHz Apple A4
iPad 2: RAM - 512MB, Processor - 1GHz dual-core Apple A5
iPad 3: RAM 1024MB, Processor - 1GHz dual-core Apple A5X

  • Why doesent my iPad 2 have siri

    I was wondering y my iPad doesent have siri and if I could download it some how??

    Apple has never officially said, but it's thought that the 2 simply lacks the hardware to run the software. It lacks a noise cancelling chip that the devices that have Siri have.

  • Why doesn't iPad 2 have siri installed in it?

    I think that iPad 2 should have Siri in it,  don't you ?

    Welcome to the Support Communities. No, I don't think the iPad 2 should have Siri while it's still in Beta on iPhone 4S:
    ...Perhaps when Siri's bugs have been fixed and it's out of Beta, Apple will put Siri on the iPad 2.

  • Why doesn't iPad 2 have Siri?

    I want Siri for my iPad two, and cannot figure out exactly why apple hasn't done this. It makes the whole point of promoting Siri pointless as it is not on all models, and most people do not read small print. So apple, get you bum into gear and get it sorted, I am not the only one who feels like this. I need Siri for my voice commands to redirect quicker. So it should NOT be offered to people who have the latest devices, but everyone. It is silly and it is clever. I is just to make people buy the latest models. But I will NOT be fooled. Apple, get it SORTED.

    In case you didn't catch the sarcasm from the responders above, Apple has "it sorted."  The processor in iPad 2 is not as fast as the new models and they made the decision iPad 2 could not accommodate Siri.  It's like buying a car and the next model years car coming out with a more powerful engine.  Do you expect the car company to give you that more power engine?  Of course not.  As the shelf life of technical products moves quickly, no manufacturer retrofits all models with all features, because not all models can handle all features.  If you want Siri on your iPad, sell the one you've got and get a newer one.  Problem solved.
    Oh and if you used the search bar, you'd see volumes on this question, which has been asked over and over.

  • Why can my iPad no longer find my wireless printer?

    Why can my iPad no longer find my wireless printer? Anyone know? It is an HP Photosmart 5510 printer. I had no problem a couple of weeks ago when I first got the printer. Very annoying! Many thanks jonni

    Jonni-
    Did you make any changes to your system, like a new Wifi router?  Some are not compatible with AirPrint.
    One possibility is that you have a print job stuck in the print queue.  Double click your Home button, and a row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen.  Scroll across and look for the Print Center.  If it is there, you should be able to delete any stuck print job.

  • Why can't iPad mini send text to non apple users????? I wish I knew this before purchase

    Why can't iPad mini send text to non apple users????? I wish I knew this before purchase

    iMessage is from Apple to communicate with other Apple devices.
    iPad is not a phone and does not have SMS/MMS services from a carrier. There are apps that can do this, search the App Store.

  • HT4623 Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    To update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google do have app versions in the store

  • Why doesn't iPad 2s have voice control?

    Why doesn't iPad 2s have voice control?
    I know that you can put it on by uploading something on but I was wondering if there was any other way to put voice control on

    Why be so sarcastic and unhelpful? A legitimate question has been asked and someone in the community will be able to give an answer - there may be a technical reason at this stage.
    Unfortunately, on this occasion neither you nor I are able to explain why.

  • This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I click and find things at an instance like I could with the Google Toolbar?

    This latest version of Firefox is complete pants! Why can I no longer have a nice, tidy little row of icons across the top so that I can click and find things at an instance, like I could with the Google Toolbar?
    Example:- I've just spent 20 minutes looking how to 'translate' after I installed that add-on, there it was! A tiny little icon in the bottom right of the screen, I find the new set up very messy and very hard to navigate. Why can't I have the same set up on my toolbar that I've had for the last ten years? It's that bad that I'm even considering going back to I.E.
    Jon T

    Thanks but you're only telling me stuff I already know, that dosen't explain how I get the new version of Firefox to look neat and tidy like it always used to. I can no longer have all my icons that I use, I can no longer access things as easily as I could and the whole thing looks very bare and basic now! A bigger mess than even Google Chrome.
    I've spent most of this evening trying to get stuff back that is now lost because of this 'upgrade' and I'm now giving up with it. Well done! You've totally ruined what was the best browser for years.

  • Why can't a button have 'actions applied to it' in Flash CS3?

    Why can't a button have 'actions applied to it' in Flash CS3?
    I'm used to working with buttons in Flash MX and Flash 8 but
    after creating a button in Flash CS3, I'm getting text that reads
    'Current Selection Cannot Have Actions Applied To It' and so the
    actions menus are greyed out.
    What's the problem?

    There is nothing stopping you from producing files in the old
    ways. Go to the publish settings and select to publish as AS2. You
    can then use the techniques you are familiar with.
    However as dzedward points out, Actionscript has come a long
    way. The technique of putting the code directly on instances really
    went out with Flash MX in 2001 and for a long time now that wasn't
    the best way to do it. See this article by the very excellent David
    Stiller about it:
    http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/museum-pieces-on-and-onclipevent
    So even if you aren't ready to take the plunge into AS3, I
    would recommend learning this style for all your AS2/1
    needs.

  • Why can I not just have a new phone.

    I am on my 3 refurbished replacement phone and am starting to get fustrated with Verizon. Every refurbished Galaxy S III that has been sent to me has had a different malfunction. Why can't I just have a new phone enstead of a refurbished one.

    I do carry the insurance and you are right about the contract but I am still fustrated that out of 3 replacement phones, all 3 have something wrong with them. And yes I did get my original phone at a discount price but it was still $300+  so it should of lasted longer than 6 to 7 months.
    Yes, it should, that's why they have a warranty, and the warranty says that after 14 days and up to 1 year, they will replace it with a refurbished device.
    If you buy a new car and have problems with the transmission after 6 months, do they give you a new car, or "refurbish" the one you have? (It's not like Verizon is doing something "new and different" with their warranty)

  • Why dosent ipad 2 have siri

    ipad 2 needs siri because its not fair that the latest devices have it

    My iPad 2 didn't get many of the new features of iOS7 and was eligible for almost none of them for iOS8, but I still use it every day.
    With regards to Siri...honestly, i've had it on my touch for over a year and I think I've turned it on once just to see what it does.
    She's not all she's cracked up to be, especially if you don't have a cellular device...Siri only works when the device is on the internet.
    If Siri is a make it or break it part of the deal, then you need a new device. Just like if you want to use Apple Pay you need an iPhone 6, or if you want to use other functions of iOS8 that only work on the newest models.

  • HT204389 Why doesn't my iphone4 have Siri in my settings

    My iPhone4 doesn't have Siri into settings and my updates are current. What can I do to add Siri to my phone?

    Because Siri requires an iPhone 4S or later. It is not compatible with the iPhone 4.
