Can I iniate phone calls from my Mac?

On my Microsoft PC with Excel (Works actually), I used to be able click on a cell to make a call.  This was very useful if I was making a lot of calls to busy people.  When a the phone call was answered, I could see to whom I was talking, with useful information (reason for call/ history/ colleagues' names...).
I now have Excel (Office for Mac 2011) and would like any system linked to that.
Thanks in advance, raybry

  • 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...

  • I recieve phone call from my iphone on my mac  but i can not make a call from my mac

    I recieve phone call from my iphone but i can not make a call from my mac What shall ido

    Then follow the steps here:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    But basically make sure that iCloud is enabled with the same account in both your Mac and iPhone, turn off Wi-Fi calls if enabled in your iPhone and make sure that Facetime has the same accounts in your devices.

  • How do I make a phone call from my mac with yosemite?

    How do I make a phone call from my MacBook Pro on the Yosemite operating system?

    The following quotation is from Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
    There is more information in the link, including supported hardware and that you must have Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls set to on on the iPhone.
    Phone calls
    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.
    To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
    Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
    Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
    All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
    Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
    Make a call
    To make a phone call on your Mac, iPad or iPod touch tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari.

    Call your carrier, my daughter's phone stopped working one Saturday night and it turned out our AT&T account had been hacked by someone somewhere  in the US at a Walmart.  They bought a new phone, upgrading from her phone knocking out her number and sim card.  AT&T told her to go to phone store Sunday morning and they gave her new phone.  We followed through with the theft report.  About a weel later the Visa we pay the phone bill with was attempted to be used at a phone store in Sacremento.
    Anyway, your carrier will restore service if it nots working for any reason.

  • I can not receive FaceTime calls from my mac when i call it from my iPhone

    it was all fine and now i can't recieve facetime calls but i can make them, doe it matter if i have the same email on my mac and my iphone?

    You should have a separate, verifyible e-mail address for your Mac, and a separate, verifyible e-mail address for your iphone.  Having the same address for both can cause the issue you're having.

  • Can I place Telephone Calls from my Mac

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use my mac to place and record telephone calls? I had ordered PhoneValet to do that, but was told that although the program records calls, and can dial calls, it cannot be used to place a call and actually speak and have the person on the other end hear what I am saying. Is there a way to do this?
    Patrick
    P.S. If this is not the right discussion area to ask this question, please tell me which discussion area would be better. Thank you.

    Hi Patrick Murphy-
    Something like Skype perhaps?
    I do not use the product, and I think there are a few other programs that will allow you to do same. Google may be your friend on this one

  • HT204380 i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    You have to add another email address on one of the two devices that you can use as the "You can be reached for FaceTime at" contact address and then remove/uncheck the Apple ID email address as the contact address on that device. The way you are currently setup is like to trying to call yourself on your on phone - from your own phone.
    Using the iPad as the example go to Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for FaceTime at>Add another email address. Then add a working email address in the next window. Apple will verify the email. Go to the inbox of that email account, read and respond to Apple's email in order to complete the verification process.
    Go back to Settings>FaceTime>Uncheck the Apple ID email address and make sure that the new email address is checked/selected (you will see it being verified again) and that new email address will be your contact address for the iPad.
