Can i use facetime via wireless vs my phone carrier?

when traveling abroad can I initiate facetime using wireless vs. my wireless carrier?

Yes, unless the public wi-fi hotspot your iPhone is connected to restricts/prevents doing so.
FaceTime was available via wi-fi only for a while.

  • 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

  • HT204380 can you use facetime in other languages

    Can you use facetime when language is set to different language other than english in the US?

    Is the other person on Wifi?  They may think that they can use Facetime via cellular, but they have to be using wifi as well.  And yes, you can facetime from the US to Europe.

  • Can you use FaceTime using two iPads with same apple id

    Have two iPads for wife and I. Both use same apple ID account. Can you use FaceTime between them?

    Heres what you do. got to settings>facetime>add an email and than add another email (note: cannot be the same email that you use on your apple ID) A verifaction email will be sent. Go to your email account and verify the email by clicking on the link. Now using the other ipad, make a facetime call to the email you just verified and you can now facetime between the two!
    One more side note. Make sure that only the email you just verified has a check mark on it. The other ipad shoud have a check mark next to the orginal apple ID email.

  • Can I use Facetime between two devices which both are signed in to the same Apple ID?

    Can I use Facetime to communicate between two Apple devices which are each signed into the same Apple ID?

    And use the new address to call that device.
    What new address?
    Perhaps you mean the OP needs to add a new email address for his AppleID and use that email address.
    Yes. That's what I meant.
    Change the "You can de Reached by Facetime At" for one of them under Settings->Facetime->You can be Reached by Facetimer At.
    I probably should have specified "Change the "You can de Reached by Facetime At"(email address) ...
    NOW TO CORRECT:  Even though I said you could, you can't.
    I tried this out just now and you can't facetime a device using the same Apple ID.
    So yes, you infact need another Apple ID for this. Not just another email address.
    My Bad. sorry.  I don't deserve the 10 points.

  • FaceTime: I have a iPad, iPhone, iMac all on the same apple Id/account. Without changing id/email address can I use FaceTime between any 2 of my devices? It works from iPad to iPhone but not the other way??? I would like talk/see my kids if am away

    FaceTime: I have a iPad, iPhone, iMac all on the same apple Id/account. Without changing id/email address can I use FaceTime between any 2 of my devices? It works from iPad to iPhone but not the other way??? I would like talk/see my kids if am away.
    Hope you can help.
    I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one account

    IOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
    using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call.  see the link.
    Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

    Your question is backwards, we must assume that you want to upgrade from Lion to 10.8.

  • How can I use FaceTime between 2 I-Pads sharing the same email account

    How can I use FaceTime between 2 I-Pads sharing the same email address

    Cstearns-
    I only have one iPad, but was able to add myself to the list of Favorites.  When I tried to call, I was not available!
    You should also take a look at the Skype App for iPhone.  It works on the iPad, where you can choose 2X to expand the display.  I haven't tried to add myself to Skype, but have been able to have it connected on both my computer and the iPad at the same time.
    You might also consider getting a second address from G-Mail, just for use with FaceTime.

  • Can i use a belkin wireless g router with an iMac

    can i use a belkin wireless g router with an imac

    It will work. The wireless card in iMacs (recent ones) work with n, g, and b networks. The g protocol is slower (54 mbs) versus n (130 mbs up to 300 mbs). My employer has hundreds of such access points and has been updating them all to n, but there are still some g routers they haven't gotten to, and they work fine. 54 mbs is not bad, it's about 5 megabytes/sec roughly. Typical actual throughput is lower than these numbers by ~ 50%, so doing a large Mac OS update download of 300 Megabytes would take about ~ 2 minutes with a g router, and maybe a bit less than 1 minute with an n router.

  • If i have multiple iPhones and Mac Mini sharing the same Apple ID, can I use Facetime between the devices?

    if i have multiple iPhones and Mac Mini sharing the same Apple ID, can I use Facetime between the devices?

    Yes, but if you want these devices to have complete capability of calling each other they each must have their own separate, individual e mail address.  If they don't have individual e mail addresses, the i phones will be able to call each other because you'll be using their  individual phone numbers -- the Mac mini will be able to call the i phones, but, the iphones will not be able to call the Mac mini.  This is because the iphones will be using the mini's e- mail address to make the call, and if they have the same e mail address, they will think they are calling themselves, so the call will not connect.
    So, the way I see it is,  if you keep all of the email addresses the same, the only thing you'll loose is the ability of the iphones to call the mini.
    EDIT:  Thinking about it, my first sentence needs to be modified.  Your iphones can share an email address but it must be different from the Mac mini address.
    This isn't rocket science, but it can make your head spin. LOL
