Can't make Phone calls with Yosemite and iOS 8.1.1

I purchased two brand new Apple products: MacBook Pro with Retina display, and the new iPhone 6. I would love to use this new feature of making phone calls with my macbook but cannot seem to make it work. It keeps saying "iPhone and macbook has to be on the same wifi network" Which they are, I have followed the steps in preferences on my macbook and in my iPhone that will allow the use of these new features. Any help? Please it is frustrating to have something not work.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Help two macs with identical setup and one does not receive phone calls using Yosemite and iOS 8.1 on iPhone 6. What is going on Apple?

    Ive got an imac from 2008 and MBPr from 2013. the imac does indeed receive regular calls but the newer  mac, the MBPr from 2013 does not.
    what is going on apple?
    MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), iOS 8.1

    i got it. I fixed it by setting Time Zone in automatically in both iphone and MBC
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences > Date & Time > Date & Time.
    Enable "Set Automatically".
    Click the Time Zone tab and confirm the closest city is correct.

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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.

  • 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???
    Post relates to: Treo Pro T850U (Unlocked)
    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.

  • Can't make a call with Siri

    Can't make a call with Siri, it says "calling x..." then "sorry, i cant call the mobile number of x..."

    According to this forum: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2175165/all, it seems that Siri is expecting a 7-8 digit phone numbers excluding the country code and area code, so adding an extra "0" digit or two at the back of the phone number may be able to fix your problem. The phone number should still connect correctly. Try that, it works for me in Indonesia where some phone numbers are still 6 digits.
