Can I use FaceTime or iMessages to correspond to my tutor with its Skype ?

Hello !
I would like to use FaceTime or iMessages to talk to my tutor online but he has Skype.
Is it possible to correspond with him ?
Kind Regards,
Jean-Louis

Alright, after trying stuff for some irritating hours, I think I've got something you can use. I haven't figured out how to get it to run all the time.
(I must be an idiot becuase I can't find where to upload this file)
Automator application
Run Shell Script (ignore this actions input)
ioreg -n AppleSmartBattery -r | awk '$1~/Capacity/{c[$1]=$3} END{OFMT="%.2f%"; max=c["\"MaxCapacity\""]; print (max>0? 100*c["\"CurrentCapacity\""]/max: "?")}'
Set Value of Variable
Variable: new variable... (I called it Battery Life)
Run AppleScript
on run {input, parameters}
          if input is less than "3.00" then tell application "Finder" to eject (every disk whose ejectable is true and local volume is true)
          return input
end run

  • Why does the "set automatically" button keep turning off in the my date & time area of my settings? When it is off I can not use facetime or imessages.keep during off on my iPad?

    I wasn't able to use FaceTime or iMessages and found out it was because the "set auomatically" button was off under date & time in the settings area.  Why does tha button turn off?

    I wouldn't suggest going to get it yourself. You could find yourself in a situation you cannot get out of and could get hurt. Second, as stated before, it is more for misplaced or lost devices, not stolen devices. Many police agencies do not feel they have probable cause, just from your statement on a map location to justify attempts to recover the device. There have been many posts from others who have had devices stolen where the police will not confront someone based on that map location. I understand you are impacted by the theft, but this is what we have insurance for. To protect your content, from now on I suggest you put a passcode on the device. I hope you have changed all of the passwords for accounts you had on the device, since all of your content and data was accessible to the thief.

  • Can't use facetime and iMessage with my phone number

    I activted Facetime and iMessage on my iphone 4 ios 5 but the my phone number wasn't available . I can only use it with my email

    Hello,
    You wont be able to install the latest version of iTunes on this iBook.
    The latest version of iTunes requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
    The iBook will not install Mac OS X 10.6 or higher due to not having an Intel processor.
    With this, you wont be able to sync and iPhone 4,4s or 5 running iOS 6 or higher

  • I can't use facetime or imessage after downloading ios 7.

    After downloading IOS 7 on my Ipod Touch 5, I could no longer use Imessage or facetime.  I go to my facetime app and it opens with asking for my apple ID et al and then comes up
    "FaceTime Activation
    Could not sign in.  Please check your
    network connection and try again."
    When I go to my imessage app the SAME thing occurs.
    There is NOTHING wrong with my internet connection.  Safari is going online no problem.  How can I fix this?

    Change your iPod DNS to 8.8.8.8
    That should work. Cheers

  • Can I use my phone as a modem for my laptop with its wifi?

    If so, how can I do this exactly??
    Windows xp professional (if that is of any help)

    If your device supports mobile hotshot (which is not a modem) then you can use that.  But if you are using an 8520 you do not have that feature.

  • How do i use FaceTime and iMessage on Ipad and iPhone

    I want to use FaceTime and iMessage on my iPhone and Ipad with the same Apple account but also with eachother.
    Is this possible?

    Yes it is possible.
    After you activate the apps on all of your devices with your Apple ID - you then have to add another email address at which you can be reached on all but one of the devices - and then remove your Apple ID email address as the contact address on those devices. You can keep the ID on one device as the address at which you can be reached.
    It is really very simple to do, but this user posted this some type ago and it explains how to do it. You can also Google it and find other sites that explain it. But here you go ....

  • Can i use facetime on ipad1

    HI CAN I USE FACETIME ON MY IPAD

    No, it is not compatible with the first gen iPad - it doesn't have the cameras that FaceTime needs and you won't be able to get the app. You can get the Skype For iPad app but the other person won't be able to see you.

  • How can I verify my phone number to use FaceTime and iMessage instead of email address!?

    My iMessage and FaceTime are both working, but it still says "Waiting for activation.." right under both the FaceTime and iMessage settings. Under the "Receive At" setting, my email address is entered in. When I press on my email address, it takes me to a page shows my Apple ID, my email address, and in gray it says "Vertifying" with my phone number also in gray. I am currently out of the country and am using wifi for my apps, iMessage, FaceTime, and checking email. Why does it still say waiting for activation even though I can use everything fine?

    I want that to be my last option if I need to. I don't want to delete everything and update everything back over. Are the finished with updating the severs? Last night I was unable to sign in using my Apple ID to use FaceTime or iMessage, but now I am logged in, but I can't verify my number. My iMessages are going through with my email instead of my number

  • HT4623 I have an iPad 4th generation and when I updated to iOS 7 I can't use FaceTime.  Every time I tried to sign in I get a message asking me to check my Network connection.  FaceTime and iMessage are the only application that give me this message.

    Try Reset all settings

    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

Try again", and when I attempt to "create a new account" both applications say "Unable to contact the (facetime or imessage) server. Try again" - Dokes anyone now how to fix this??????????????

  • I can't activate FaceTime and iMessage !!!?

    Actually this problem has started since iOS 6  . I have an iPhone 4S and iPad mini  running on iOS 6.0.2 and iPad 2 running on iOS 6.0.1
    On my iPhone , I can easily activate FaceTime and iMessage without any problems , but that's using my phone number .
    Whenever I tried singing in using my Apple ID , I keep getting the  'The user name and password is incorrect '  even though I'm pretty sure its correct .
    Same thing goes on my iPad 2 & mini , I tried activating FaceTime and iMessage but it just keeps saying the user name and password is incorrect .
    I try to fix my DNS & I've done resets  all other possible solutions I might find but to no avail .
    - Funny thing is that when I use a different Apple ID, it gets activated.. anybody can help on what the **** is going on !!!!?
    By the way I'm from Egypt and i have a macbook pro running on OSX 10.8.2 but FaceTime & iMessage Works without problems

  • Why is my phone not allowing me to use FaceTime or iMessage using my Apple ID instead of my number?

    I recently suspended my service with Verizon due to deployment and I looked forward to using FaceTime and iMessage through my email account. However, my phone will not allow me to. The pop up says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connections and try again". I don't know what the problem is? Is it because of my location? Or my service suspension? Help, please!

  • I can't use FaceTime because I always get "cannot sign in at this time. Check your network connection and try again."  Help please.

    I can't use FaceTime because I always get the following message:  "Cannot sign in. Check your network connection and try again."  My connection is good.

    Check your timezone settings.
    I've seen numerous people passing with FaceTime & iMessage issues and almost always the problem was the time zone.
    For some odd reason sometimes the timezone sticks to Cupertino and Facetime & iMessage won't work.

    I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate.  iPad 2, iOS 8.3

    This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum. 
    Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled?  It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.
