Siri for iPad activating itself when headphones...

Whenever my headphones are plugged in, Siri activates itself and tells me to ask a question...

I haven't asked for it, and it often happens when I'm in the middle of watching or listening to something. It's incredibly annoying!

I used to have a problem with my music starting randomly as well, but since the update to iOS7, this has not happened.

I try not to leave the headphones in when I'm not listening to anything, but I need a solution.

Help would be much appreciated :)

Many glitches like this can be fixed with a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

Hi there,

Did you ever manage to figure this one out? I'm also having a similar issue: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24167164#24167164

A reset as suggested here unfortunately has not helped.

Thanks, Gopha

I did try the reset (a few times!), and it worked for a time, but not now. I still don't know what causes it... Sometimes Siri pops up if I move the headphones where they are plugged in, so I try not to fiddle with then! But often it just comes up anyway...

I only put them in when I have to now, but they still stop my music or videos if I'm watching anything!

Have you had any issues with your music starting up randomly? Because that also happens when my headphones are plugged in.

Thanks :)

Hi there,

No I haven't had any issues with music starting up by itself, the only issue that I have is Siri starting up at the moment I plug the headphones in...?

Curiously, I find that when I open up the Control Center window and plug various headphones in, the volume level changes differently depending on which headphones I plug in. For headphones that don't have the Siri issues, the volume control increases when I plug the headphones in to the level that I use my headphones at (assuming that the volume for speaker use is lower than that of headphone use). For the two headphones that I have which do have the Siri issue, at the moment of connection, the volume increases as above, but then decreases very slightly.

Thinking about the two headphones that have this issue, I know that they are somewhat more powerful or demanding. One is quite a hefty unit, and the other is a Bluetooth transmitter. I'm wondering if the iPad, at the point of connection, is figuring out what the headphones are like and is adjusting the volume accordingly. And in doing so, with these two particular units that process is triggering Siri through some sort of short circuit. When Siri does get triggered through these peculiarities, the inboard iPad microphone is disabled, so I guess it thinks a set of headphones with inline remote is connected.

All in all very odd, but it happens intermittently so I'm not sure how bothered I should really be...?

To answer an update on your query... Curiously, today when I unplugged the headphones that cause this issue, the iPad started playing some music. Doesn't happen consistently or with other earphones that I was also using, but am wondering if it's making that contact which simulates a middle button press on an in line mic. Perhaps we're both experiencing a unique combination of strange headphones which combine with the way the iPad works to produce these oddities. I've used a number of different headphones with the iPad, and out of my repertoire of 7, only two sets produce these oddities.

Guess will just put up with it!

There's also a few other interesting posts from folks who have experienced oddities with particular sets of headphones and how they use them:

I had a close look at the headphone socket of the iPads, and it's interesting that the design has changed from, say my iPod Nano. The little metal contacts inside the socket are now closer together, and I think that with certain headphones, the act of connecting or disconnecting bridges the contacts and simulates the mic button press.

Hi there,

Thought I'd post back - I visited the Apple Store Genius Bar and was all ready to swap my iPad Air. But then the nice chap at the Genius Bar spent a good half hour trying out my headphones with some of the display Airs - and, lo and behold - the same effect was experienced (reproducibly, though intermittently) on the display models.

He's going to report it to Apple for escalation, as it appears that something to do with the design of the socket causes this effect with certain headphones. I let him know about the closeness of the contacts which might be the reason for this.

Cheers,

Gopha

I've been having pretty much the same problem with my iPhone 5S ... When I have my earpods, in my music will randomly pause or play and Siri will randomly activate . It doesn't happen as soon as I plug my earpods in though, & it doesn't happen all the time- just often enough to be annoying .

Hopefully someone finds a solution soon !

I Had this exact problem and I was using the Samsung Headphones so what I did was

- turned iPad fully off and on again

- turned 'hey Siri' off

- changed the headphones I was using to the Apple ones

i think that it wasn't so much the turning off but changing the headphones that fixed it for me as it didn't happen with out headphones so that made me think the problem was with the headphones Not the device.

if you are using the apple ones already try using other ones as that might help too.

hope this helped ~ I'm on ipad Air iOS 9.2

Hello,

I know this post is really old now, but I'm having this issue with my iPhone SE and apple earpods. It's like the button on the earpods is pushing itself repeatedly. When I'm listening to music, the music will constantly pause, play, skip, fast forward, and activate siri. I've tried cleaning out the headphone jack, and nothing happened. I don't think it's my phone, but the earpods themselves. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix this?

Thanks,

Zoe

I am having the same issue. Whenever my headphones are in iTunes will randomly start, change songs, occasionally play multiple at once. Also Siri will randomly pop up. It seems to be when the part of the headphones itself is touched or turned but sometimes just when the phone is sitting on a table untouched. Does anyone know how to fix it?

I have the same issue recently. Using iPhone 6 Plus... haven't had this problem before. I did have the iPhone 6 Plus changed (due to the touch screen problem) a month or two back. But I don't think it's the iPhone or iOS really... well, I also get the feeling the earphones I am using (the standard white ones that come with all iPhones) are maybe broken or something. Music skips, stops, goes to next track, activates Siri and all kinds of crazy things. I will try another pair of earphones, if I can find any... I have a bunch laying around at home... At least this is the first time I encounter this problem. iPhone user since 2009.

Very familiar problem.
After updating to Sierra, iTunes and Siri keep prompting when I have my headphones plugged in.
I would really like an answer, because it really keeps me from doing any work with music on, or while editing film.

Thanks for the help.
