It could be it does not like short numbers. But have you tried saying dial instead of call? Richard Always look out for #1, and be careful not to step in #2. On Aug 29, 2019, at 11:15 PM, 'Harry Bell' via VIPhone wrote: I just tried this and Siri came back saying she could not call

Re: Siri claims I have no voicemail messages and refuses to dial!

Again, Siri says she cannot dial that number. It is curious that on my other iPhone where I created a contact with a number 443, Siri will ring that contact and that number takes me tgrough to the voicemail for that different carrier. So, it cannot be because the number is too short. Hey, ho!

Siri doesn't always talk. Sometimes, what is asked, Siri says something like, this is what I found, check it out. That is usually a web site or three. If the Siri feedback is set to always, and you ask a question that Siri finds on the web, that is what you get and you have to use VoiceOver or

Well there are a few things to try for sure. The first thing I’d do is see whether it really turned itself off or just stopped talking. First, make sure it’s plugged in even if you think the battery is fine. Plugging it in will actually start it if it’s powered off in most cases. While

You can make certain that the phone is not muted by moving the mute button in to the unmute position possibly. Also perhaps shut down your phone and then restart it for it to come back up. Make certain also to tell Siri to turn voiceover on. Love always, Julie Live simply, Love generously,
