Why won't siri on my iphone connect phone calls using ios7?

Why won't siri connect phone calls using ios7?

I have the same issue. So frustrating! I think I found a fix. It's not perfect but it works to get Siri, google maps and phone calls working all at the same time which are the most important things to me. After you start the car, go to settings on uconnect. Scroll down to the bluetooth settings. There are 2 tabs here. 1 for voice and 1 for audio. I'm doing this from memory so someone call it out if I have that wrong. Each will say "connected" in red once your iphone automatically pairs to uconnect. In the audio tab, press on the name of your phone. This will disconnect only the audio portion and leave the voice portion connected. You can now use Siri through your car speakers! Calls will still work too. Google maps will also give directions.
This all works great until you turn off the car at which point the setting will be forgotten and will have to be repeated. It's important to keep in mind that if you now play music or a podcast off your iphone it will emanate from the phone's speaker, not your car speakers. This doesn't impact me as I'll usually be listening to sirius or fm radio when I'm driving anyway. Just like when you receive a call, siri will silence sirius until you're done with siri. Same with google maps.
What this tells me is if Apple or (less likely) Chrysler ever add an option to save your bluetooth device as a voice only and not a voice&audio bluetooth device that uconnect would finally be usable with siri. I guess this means we can be more specific in our requests to apple and chrysler to resolve this issue. Hope this helps!

Why won't Siri learn my new girls name? She always asks if its "sara" and I have to hit yes

Why won't Siri learn my new girls name? She always asks if its "sara" and I have to hit yes

I use exchange and no settings have been changed. Also siri forgets who I am once every two weeks or so and she will only remember my wife's association. Further, in the last two weeks if I asked her to email someone. She will initiate a telephone call. If is say "NO" she initiates a sms and a multitude of other intermittent problems.
I have performed a master reset and reloaded from a back up before the trouple started and the problem still exists. The problem is on the Siri side and not in my phone as they also show there ugly face on my I pad 4 synced with the cloud for contact info.
Perhaps Siri is aware that I got an Samsung Note 10.1 for Christmas. It is about the right timing.
P's. Have you tried location reminders? That fix does not work either.

Why won't siri remind me when i get to my location. i have home/work address listed

why won't siri give me my reminders when i get to my location. i have home/work address listed.

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.

Why won't iTunes allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created in December of 2014 and January of 2015, but will allow my iPhone 5 and iPhone 6 to play 176.4/24 AIFF files created before December of 2014?

When I buy and download high resolution music files (FLAC and DSD), I convert them to AIFF files and add them to my iTunes music library. Specifically, I have been converting DSD64 files to 176.4/24 AIFF files. These AIFF files (modified in some respects by iTunes) have been synched to my old iPhone 5 and new iPhone 6. Until December, every 176.4/24 AIFF file played as expected. In December, I purchased two DSD64 albums, which I converted to 176.4/24 AIFF files using AudirvanaPlus 1.5. These 176.4/24 AIFF files will not play on either iPhone. When I converted those DSD64 albums to 88.2/24 AIFF files, they played on both iPhones. In December, I also purchased several 192/24 FLAC albums and converted them to 192/24 AIFF files using Amarra HiFi. These 192/24 AIFF files play properly on both iPhones.

I have a similar problem and have spent three sequential days at the Apple Genius Bar before we were able to exclude most other possibilities and found that certain files (in my case all mp3s from CDs I own) that play just fine in iTunes 11.0.1 and that used to play in iOS 6.0.1 do not play in iOS 6.1. We restored the phone to factory settings and synced only a few of the music files that were problematic. They still did not play. We reproduced the problem on my iPad mini (iOS6.1).
Apple Telephone Support suggestion was to convert all mp3 files in iTunes to AAC (which according to Apple Website may degrade sound quality). No further suggestions or escalation but a recommendation to place comments on www.apple.com/feedback and, if there are enough complaints, someone at Apple might take an interest in this problem. Something has changed in iOS 6.1 where files that played on prior mobile system software no longer work.
Apple, please pay attention to this glitch with iOS 6.1.

Why won't my camera work in Facebook video call?

Have a new MacBook Pro running Mavericks. When I tried to use the video call feature in Facebook, it told me I didn;t have the necessary java to execute the install. I downloaded the file suggested online (Java for OS X 2014-001: How to re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 web plug-in and Web Start features) and the install went through. However, when I try to make a call it connects, I can see the other person's video and hear her/him but my camera does not activate (No green light. Person being called can hear me, but no picture appears for them). FaceTime works fine. Skype works fine. Google+ Hangout asks me to give permission to use camera, but hangs up. I also tried to make a FB video call in Safari and that did not work either (same problem).

Because something is wrong.
You've done well determining that there is nothing wrong with your Mac or its Apple Software.

Why won't my screen turn when the phone does?

why won't my screen turn when the phone does?

Not all apps support screen rotation. The Home screens do not rotate. But also check to make sure you have not locked screen rotation. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the Control Center and check that rotation lock is not on.

HT201304 Why won't siri place a call with camera restricted?

I have a government job that requires my iphone camera to be restricted which also restricts the use of facetime. It appears that this restriction also keeps siri from placing a "hands free" call. Why is this the case? What can be done to correct it? It seems to me that this is some type of software issue. BTW, my wife still has iOS 5 on her phone and the same problem exists with her phone.

For the camera to be recognized by FCP, order is important.
Try shutting down, connect the camera via FW, power the camera up and, LAST, start FCP.
If that doesn't do it try VIEW > REFRESH A/V DEVICES
Be sure that VIEW > EXTERNAL VIDEO is set to ALL FRAMES and VIEW > VIDEO is set to APPLE FW NTSC (or whatever FW setting is appropriate for you)
If all is set up properly, you should see the video signal and hear the audio through your camera even when not in record.

WHy won't my new Airport Extreme connect to the Internet?

I can connect no problem using direct LAN cable, but when I try setting up the AirPort, it doesn't work. Green light is on and everything, just fails to connect to the Internet. Very frustrating. My ethernet uses PPPoE, so I tried setting that up in the AirPort, but it won't work then either......Network Diagnostics keeps getting me to the "Internet failed" stage if I try using DHCP, or only to "Network Settings failed" if I try using PPPoE (even though my direct LAN cable works fine on the same settings! Grrrrrr!) Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Stress Test:
Thanks very much for the reply. I've actually sorted out the problem since posting - just a few minutes ago. I reset the AirPort and reconfigured everything in manual mode with the ethernet cord from my computer connected to the AirPort. I then disconnected the ethernet cord, rebooted the modem and AirPort, did a bit more troubleshooting and suddenly I was connected to the Internet! Still not sure exactly what I did that fixed the problem, but everything is working ok now.
Regards,
John

HT5957 I've deleted data from my iCloud and purchased the 10 gb plan. Why won't my I phone5 let me now update to ios7??

I've deleted all data from my I cloud acct. purchased the 10 gb plan. Why won't my I phone let's load the new iOS 7? It says I need 3.9 gb of room which is why I deleted all I cloud info. Does it need tr to register the changes?

Did you get a message on your phone about not enough storage space and therefore could not update the iOS?
The storage space referred to in a message like that is the space on your device. It is not the amount of iCloud storage you have. What you need to do is delete enough files, photos, videos, apps etc. from your iPhone so as to free up enough space on the phone so that you can download the update.
