Can't used my iPad to make phone calls with 8.0.2

I can't get my iPad to make calls or answer texts through my iPhone. Same network, bluetooth on both devices, same FaceTime account. I can't find wifi calling on my phone to turn it off. Handoff is working just fine with safari
any suggestions?

Hello jllieblein,
Wi-Fi calling is only available on T-Mobile. The setting can be found in Settings -> Phone, should you have T-Mobile. Otherwise, Wi-Fi calling is off.

The steps below detail how to go about setting your iPad and iPhone up to make phone calls.

To make and receive phone calls on your iPad or iPod touch, here's what you need:
Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later.
Both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
Both devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same Apple ID.
This means any iOS device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.

  • Can I use my iPad  to make cellular calls

    I have a slot for a sim card in my ipad can i use it to make celuualr calls

    The iPad cellular design and iOS implementation doesn't facillitate SMS text messaging or voice calling.
    You can insert a simcard with active voice & text messaging but you can't receive/send SMS text messaging or make calls. Only the data part works.

    If you have an iPhone with iOS 8 on the same wifi network as the computer, and the computer matches the specs required for Continuity and phone calls (i.e it is running Yosemite), then yes, yes you can.

    With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.

  • Problem - Can't make phone calls with my new Tour 9630

    I just bought a new phone - Tour 9630.  Its a brand new phone on Sprint. 
    Now I am in India using this phone on Vodafone and all the services are on, I can send and receive emails, texts, go to websites and download stuff BUT I cant make any calls from that phone.
    Everytime I try making a call, it just disconnects after 2 seconds as if it was not registering anything.
    What I tried:
    Change the mobile connection to GSM only and hard reset the phone - DID NOT WORK
    I tried calling service provider who mentioned all my services are working fine
    I tried changing the sim card on the new phone - DID NOT WORK
    I used my Vodafone sim in another - Works fine but not on the new phone.
    I called blackberry support at vodafone - they say I might have to update the OS, which does not sound as music to my ears because this a new phone.
    I rebooted the phone million times - DID NOT WORK
    I wiped the phone and reinstalled everything - DID NOT WORK
    Checked and changed all the setting and tried making calls - DID NOT WORK
    Anything you could do to please help me so that I can make phone calls will be highly appreciated.

    My issue has been taken care of. It seems that Sprint has had an issue with the phone number prefix 238 in the 24151 zipcode. I ended up having to change my phone number and put my phone number under a new zipcode. It all works awesome again. Thanks.

  • Can't make phone calls with Siri

    I can't make phone call through siri. I'm from Myanmar and local numbers can't be called. Whenever I call, siri said "sorry, I can't make phone calls using that number". I added my country code +95 but it didn't help. But when I call oversea numbers, it works just fine.

  • Can I use the ipad keyboard Dock for pairing with a non Apple laptop?

    I am thinking of getting the keyboard dock for my IPad 2.
    I also have an IBM laptop with blutooth. Can I use the iPad dock as a keyboard for the IBM?
    Thanks

    If you're referring to this dock:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC533LL/B?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE&mco=MTg1ODE1Mjc
    it is not a Bluetooth keyboard so can't be used with the laptop.  And the keyboard dock was originally designed for the curved back of the iPad1.  So while it does appear to work with the iPad2, some people report that it's a little loose and sometimes get intermittent disconnections with the connector.
    As for Bluetooth keyboards, some can only be paired to one device.  To use with two computers, you may have to un-pair from the first device, the re-pair to the second device.  Some keyboards can "switch" without un-pairing, but you have to research to ensure the model you want will do that.  Depending on your usage, it may be more worthwhile to get separate keyboards.

  • HT3406 After the steps suggested, does it mean i can "remove" the SIM card and use my iphone via WIFI? i can browse the internet but cannot make phone calls right?

    Is the wifi card a build in in ipod/ipad? yet build in on SIM card in iphone?

    But on WiFi, could I still use Skype to make a phone call? I have a camera adapter for the iPhone 4 and would just use it as a camera and to play music after I upgrade to a later versionof iPhone. Am I correct in assuming that I could still do everything except connect through 3G?

  • 8.2/4th-gen iPad cannot make phone calls

    Hi,
    i can use my IMac to make calls on my 6+ no problem. My iPad, however, does not work. I have FaceTime and iCloud signed in and cell calls option turned on. On the iPad, I see a phone icon now on Contacts.  When I tap it, it brings up the 'dialing in progress' screen, but it fails after 5-8 seconds with 'iPhone not on WiFi network' error.  I am on my WiFi network.  I can stream via AirPlay from both iPhone and iPad to my Apple TV no problem.
    I have a 4th-gen iPad (AT&T) running 8.2. I've never tried this with the iPad before, so I'm not sure if this is an 8.2 issue or not.
    Any ideas?
    Regards, Patrick

  • Can I use Magic Jack for BOTH phone calls and Fax. Is Magic jack PLUS BETTER.

    I am using the Magic Jack for regular phone calls. Now, I want to use it for Faxing in and out - on Windows - on a wireless connection to my Officejet 8600 Pro Plus. I see a lot of problems in the forum. Is it easier to buy and use the new Magi Jack PRO. AND. PLEASE, Does anyone have instructions for the installation and use?

    I'm going to be up front and straight forward with you.  Magic Jack, does not work with faxing 90% of the time.  It's not designed to.  That being said, you still have to have a phone line plugged into the printer to fax.  There is no such thing as wireless faxing.  There is internet faxing, through companies such as eFax, and you can use eFax wirelessly form the front panel of select printers.  The 8600 is not one of those printers though.  The printers that include the eFax app are in the PhotoSmart line.  Now that you know all of that, you can try to get faxing to work with magic jack, but it' most likely not going to work.  Here is a list of the things you can try:
    Fist make sure you have a DSL/Digital filter installed in the line.  Next, set the fax speed to slow.  You can find steps in this document that will help with that.  Last make sure the ECM (Error Correction Mode) is off.  To turn off the ECM:
    From the home screen, touch the right arrow.
    Touch setup.
    Touch fax setup.
    Touch advanced fax setup.
    Scroll down to ECM.
    Touch ECM.
    Touch off.
    Touch the home button.
    That's about all you can do to get it to work, and even then it's not guaranteed at all.  Like I said, Magic Jack does not work with faxing.
