SIRI Window on Laptop

When I ask Siri a question while using my powerbook laptop, and NOT my iPhone or iPad, that box vanishes away before I have had a chance to finish reading what Siri was trying to tell me. Then I have to ask the same question again, sometimes several times so I can read the answer. Can I lengthen the time that Siri's "window" is displayed on my desktop? It has become easier to open another web page frequently to search as it will stay up till I close it.

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, Per Axel.


If we understand your post correctly, Siri's results do not stay visible to you long enough on your MacBook. We’d like to help.

WOW!! Thanks for your answer. That article was very helpful. It gave me several tricks to use with Siri. Like drag the answer out of Siri and it becomes another web page sort of. I have bookmarked that article and have allready shared it with others. When you seldom use stuff you do not learn its secrets. This makes Siri much more useful. Thank You, you are an asset to all Apple laptop users.
