IPhone calls via Mac not possible: I can't make phone calls on my Mac (via iPhone) although I am able to receive and accept those from others.

I can't make phone calls on my Mac (via iPhone) although I am able to receive and accept those from others.
I have activated all relevant options in FaceTime (either on the iPhone or Mac) but without success.
Mac > Yosemite 10.10
iPhone (5) > iOS 8.1
After trying a call via the iPhone in the "Message App" on my Mac - it says "iPhone and Mac must be in the same network"...
They definitely are... also I have logged in with the same Apple-ID's, etc.
Can anybody help?

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, it does not make a difference. It still shows "iPhone not available. iPhone and Mac have to be in the same network"
Are there any settings which are fundamental on the iPhone, I have activated:
- iCloud Drive
- FaceTime (FaceTime and iPhone Mobile Calls activated)
The only strange thing - on Yosemite I can activate mobile phone number AND email in FaceTime whereas I can activate just my email in the FaceTime app on my iPhone...

  • My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.

    My iPhone 4 shows the carrier name, I can go online with my data plan, but there are no bars and I can't make phone calls.
    It worked for some time, less than a week, I made phone calls and all, and all of a sudden the problem mentioned above happened. Now I can't make any phone calls. I can go online with it, even with my Data plan, I can go to the app store (of course) but can't make any phone calls.
    Please help, this is frustrating.

    Did you already try the troubleshooting mentioned here? http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/calls/
    Also try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple lo comes up again. You will not lose any data doing this.

  • Can´t make phone calls, can´t recieve calls, can´t send msg, it´s stuck... I have to turn off iPhone to cancle phone call...

    can´t make phone calls, can´t recieve calls, can´t send msg, it´s stuck... I have to turn off iPhone to cancle phone call... on the other side it´s ringing but on my side it´s just stuck and nothing happening

    You can try a hard reset by holding down the home button and the lock button at the same time until the apple appears. If that doesn't work I think you should definitely go into an apple store.

  • Urgent! Phone can't make phone call after upgrading to ios 6

    Hi guys,
    I use my US factory unlocked iPhone 4s 32GB in China (Carrier is China Mobile). The phone can't make phone call (has no carrier service signal) after I upgraded its OS to ios 6. Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
    The facetime also missing after upgrading to ios 6.0
    Thanks in advance!

    Whenever I see "factory unlocked" I get suspicious, because there is no such thing as "factory unlocked". If you purchased the phone directly from Apple and the receipt says "unlocked" then it is unlocked. If you did not purchase it directly from Apple it was hacked to unlock it by whoever you bought it from. The "factory" was the back room of the shop. Unless you bought it directly from Apple (or an Apple-supported cellular carier) your phone was hacked, and updating it undid the hack. If this is the case there is no solution that can be discussed in an Apple-hosted forum.
    If you really did buy it unlocked directly from Apple then razmee's suggestion is the way to go.

  • Can't make phone calls on my watch.

    I can receive phone calls on my Apple watch but can't make outbound calls.  The call ends immediately - it never dials or connects.  Is anyone else having this issue?

    Me again.  Just spent half an hour in the Apple Store.  It seems to be a network issue because when they ran a diagnostic it showed that all of the calls were being dropped by the network, not the device.  So it may be that my carrier is not ready to deal with the new technology.  Hopefully a carrier update will come soon.  It is early days yet.  Even the Apple Store employees did not have watches yet.  They were envious of mine!  And mine was the first "watch question" the guy at the Genius Bar had dealt with.

  • I can't make phone calls anymore

    hello everybody,
    i've got one of the first iphone 5. and since yesterday i can't make phone calls anymore.
    if i want to call someone, the other phone rings, but if he accepts the call there is just a very loud static rush noise. that was yesterday and this morning, now there is nothing besides sometimes a static rush. i can't hear anything and the other doesn't hear anything.
    i've checked the microphone by using siri or voice recorder. there it works fine. everything is fine, just the phone calls don't work.
    even if i try to make phone calls using bluetooth handsfree it doesn't work.
    i resetter my phone completely and set it up as a new phone but still the same.
    i just don't know what to do. i need my phone for 6 more weeks until iphone 6 is ready
    thank you for your help.
    greetings from germany

    The same thing is happening with my wife's iPhone 4 and we can't figure it out. When placing a call, the screen freezes and she needs to restart the entire phone.
    She upgraded to 5.01 this morning over the air while it was plugged in. Immediately afterwards, this problem started happening. We've tried restarting the phone several times and plugged in to iTunes but there's nothing she can do do to fix it.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Can't make phone calls

    Hello,
    So yesterday I just solved my own issue of not getting any LTE signals http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/Z2-LTE-Not-Working/td-p/784021/jump-to/first-unread-message
    Today, I followed the advice of a user to restart the phone using PWR + VOL UP buttons to get the smoothness back. I did just that, phone became smooth again with the phone registering on LTE network.
    But what happens now? I can't connect to Mobile Data AND can't make phone calls. I can run USSD code to check my balance and can receive calls just fine but cannot make phone calls.
    Any ideas? Do I need to reinstall the FW again?Model: D6503 FW: .314

    My network carrier first confirmed that everything was fine at their end and that it was the handset issue (I never believe them anyway).
    But afterwards it was confirmed that it was indeed an issue with the network operator and that they had fixed the issue...

  • Can't make phone call to Taiwan

    Can't make phone call to Taiwan now. But I paid for world unlimited call, and still active now.

    Hi,
    Your subscription is active and you can check it on your account page here: https://secure.skype.com/account/call-phones/packages
    The problem is that Unlimited World only covers Taiwan landline numbers, it doesn't cover mobiles which you have tried to call recently.
    You can check list of covered destinations under your subscription settings:

  • After downloading ISO6 I can't make phone calls.

    After downloading ISO6 I can't make phone calls.  They are all failing.  Help

    Ah, Verizon - that makes a difference. Call Verizon's activation number and re-activate your phone. They have an automated service, and also live support. The numbers should be in your documentation package if you can find it, or log in to your account on vzw.com.

  • 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.

  • I can`t make phone calls

    I can`t make phone calls, when I dial, my phone shows "dialing" and then "call ended" , I have tried with different numbers and it is always the same, I did already a soft reset and it doesn`t work.
    What could it be???

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Does this happen everywhere or only where there is a questionable signal? Try roaming:
    Start > Settings > Phone > Services > Roaming > "Roaming Networks Only"
    If that works better, complain to Sprint about your signal.
    If that also doesn't work, you might need to hard reset your phone. Make a good backup first.
    == Edit ==
    I just noticed you have the unlocked Treo Pro. I don't know whether you have this option.

  • I have full signal and have wifi but I'm can't send messages or receive them. I can't make phone calls either.

    HI
    I have full signal and have wifi but I'm can't send messages or receive them. I can't make phone calls either. it picks and chooses when I can receive them and make calls. It only works everytime I turn my phone off.

    Try turning on Airplane mode for a little bit (20-30 seconds) and turn it back off. see if that doesn't allow you to re-connect.
    In my current project my office receives no signal at all. I have to do this almost every time I leave the office in order to get a signal.
