Re: Why siri can't make a call?
I noticed this when the latest update came out. It went away after the download frenzy subsided. - Original Message - From: Sieghard Weitzel siegh...@live.ca To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, April 27, 2014 12:55 PM Subject: RE: Why siri can't make a call? Hi Grace, That happens from time to time and there really isn't much you can do except try later. I guess you could try to turn your phone off completely and back on and see if that helps as sometimes it does. I must say that since iOS 7 came out last fall I only had SIRI tell me this only 2 or 3 times and most of the time if I try a second time just a few seconds later it's fine. But I do have a feeling SIRI may work just fine for me and not for you as it depends on which servers handle your request.

RE: Why siri can't make a call?
Hello Rena, Generally speaking, Siri is unavailable during Apple server maintenance or updates. Again, generally speaking, the outages don't last very long although I suppose it depends on one's perspective. On occasion, after the maintenance has been completed, your copy of Siri will not be logged back into the system correctly. Therefore, if you want to make certain that you are connected to the Siri servers after any outages and you feel you have waited an appropriate amount of time, for example two hours or so, do the following: 1. From the Launch Pad, select Settings. 2. Select General. 3. Select Siri. 4. Double-Tap the Siri On button. 5. Double Tap the resulting Disable Siri button. This will log you out of the system. 6. Double-Tap the Siri Off button. You will be prompted to confirm that you want to activate Siri. 7. Finally, try using Siri. If everything is back up and running on the back-end of the system, you will be back in business.
