How do I un-confuse Siri?

settings.general.siri.my info - then there is an account area that you can dial it in.

BUT - Siri is down right now so nothing is likely to update till Siri comes back online

I'm getting the same error. When I change it to my girlfriend, Siri then changes my info to her as well. Then when I change mine back to me, Siri then changes hers to me as well.

It's as if they both have to be the same? We do share an iTunes log-in. Could this be the cause?

I am having the exact same problem. First, on my iPhone I go to settings- general- Siri and choose my contact to set my info. Then, on my wife's iPhone I do the same, but I choose her contact info. At first it works as intended, but after about 30 min, my iPhone shows my info to be my wife's contact, instead of mine. If I fix it on my iPhone, then a few minutes later, her iPhone will show my info. It's as if both iPhones are being synced over the air to have the same contact in my info. Anyone know how to solve this?

This is definitely a problem. I believe it's iCloud, syncing what it believes to be your "me" contact. It may also affect your login profile image on your Mac. I'd advise you send a bug report to Apple here:

and you may want to try the Express Lane service for iCloud/iPhone (although it's not working for me right now).

Yes! The problem is definitely do to iCloud shyncing the "me" contact information to all the phones and macs that you have hooked up with iCloud.

We have 4 phones on our iCloud account and one person makes a change then siri is calling everyone by that name... very frustrating.

The only work around is to make a specific contact on that one device that is not on the icloud account... which needs to be done on a computer and synced to the phone via a cable.

This is a silly thing and I hope Apple realizes this and fixes it quickly.

Same here. And I agree that it has to do with the iCloud sync.

I have also two iPhone 4S and when I set up my wife's yesterday I found out that it seems to sync 'My Info' across both phones. This is very annoying speciall when you tend to use Siri a lot. I mean Siri is gonna call both of us either with my name or my wife's (depending on what we leave the My Info at).

Or when one of us says 'call my husband/wife' Siri won't be able to know who to call. I just tested that, not knowing that it was synced to my wifes name. I said 'call my wife' and Siri started asking which phone number (it was all set up previously)... and then when I decided on the iPhone number I realised that Siri is actually calling me (the husband)... as I had it set up on my wife's phone just last night.

I know Siri is in Beta, but Apple, can you please make this work. Having several iPhones using ONE appleID in order to sync calendar & contacts.

Can you sync two different apple IDs over the cloud? I couldn't find anything on the net.

All the best!

Each phone should have their own AppleID and their own ICloud. Keep everything seperated.

I have a question about Siri. I told her to call my daughter. She replied, who is your daughter. I said her name. She asked if I wanted to save her on my phone as my child. I said, yes. Now, I try to set up my son and it keeps calling my daughter. Appeartenly, you can't separate son and daughter like you can wife, brother and dad. Anyone know how to delete Siri from knowing my child setting?

Fine, but then you can't easily share contacts, bookmarks, etc. Married couples tend to have a lot of shared contacts.

I am married and I am sure there are duplicate contacts.

I am married and I dont want to use seperate iCloud accounts. My wife and I use the same apple ID to keep in sync, pun intended.

Apple needs to fix this so we can tie a contact record to a device instead of having a My Info contact synced across all the devices.
