Can't sign in on FaceTime on 2010 MacBook Air 10.6.7

I can't sign in to FaceTime on my MacBook Air. It says my Apple ID is not right or that I should check my network settings.
The strange thing is that it does work on my iPad 2. I'm using the same Apple ID and I'm on the same network. It also works on my iPhone on that same network. I'm even able to setup a FaceTime call between my iPhone and my iPad.
So what's wrong with my MacBook?

hoi Jordy,
try my tip in this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15059382
Changing the DNS may do the trick for your MacBook - at least for the network connection problem.
groetjes,

1. Make sure software is up to date
2. Make sure FaceTime is enabled; Settings>FaceTime
3. Make sure Date and Time is correctly set; Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On
4. Make sure Push Notification is enabled
5. Make sure phone number or email address is correct
6. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) until you see the Apple Logo

I can not sign in to FaceTime using my apple id

I can not sign in to FaceTime using my @mac.com apple id, each time i try encounter the following message:
The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try later. This has been an ongoing issue for several days.
I am also unable to access Facetime preferences
any suggestions for a fix please?

I was having this problem and was able to fix it by going to system preferences and adding my @me email address as an additional apple id - then I signed on to facetime using that sign on info and it worked. Good luck.as

Can't sign on to FaceTime with new ios7

Can't sign into to facetime after downloading the new ios7 ?

So, Skype has now turned down my request for a refund.
This page clearly states that I'm due one:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12147/when-can-i-get-a-refund
Still no answers.
I think I'm going to write a piece about this experience pretty soon.

Since I downloaded Lion I can't sign-on to FaceTime? I get an error that my apple ID is already being used. Has anyone else had this problem?

Leigh...
but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.

How can i update the phone number associated with my iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air?

I recently moved to the US from Canada and have a new US #. I have updated the phone number on my apple ID but the iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air are still connected to my old Canadian phone number. How can I update this? Thanks so much!

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
          Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
          Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
          Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test.

You may get better detailed results by asking in the Facetime forum.

When I try to sign into my facetime on my macbook pro, it wont do it stating "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." It did this 10 times now. How do I fix this?

Can I connect my October 2010 Macbook Air to a Thunderbolt display?

Does it only work with the MacBook Airs that came out today?

Sorry but it only works with a Mac that has Thunderbolt. An october 2010 MacBook Air will therefore not work with it. But you can still purchase the older Apple LED Cinema Display for the next year or two.

Why can't a choose to create a Windows 7 install disk on my 2010 macbook air?

It is a 2010 macbook air, with lion 10.7.2 and bootcamp 4.0.1. the option to create a windows 7 install disk is greyed out, i have a trial version from microsoft website, but i also have a downloaded windows 7 both of them are .iso, i also have a 4gb usb in. could someone explain to me how to fix this?

You might follow this procedure...
http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-20020513-285/install-win-7-on-macbook-air-fr om-a-usb-drive/
Note that to start the procedure, you will need a Windows computer to create the USB install stick.
I have an iMac with Windows 7 running via BootCamp, but I really don't like the BootCamp setup mainly because it's necessary to reboot the computer every time you switch from one OS to the other.
A few days ago I got a new MBA 128GB model which I decided to put Windows on via Parallels. I have an old stand-alone DVD drive I plugged into the MacAir which immediately recognized the DVD drive. I then installed Parallels on the MacAir. When that was finished, it prompted me for a Windows installation disk, which I then put in the DVD drive.
Away it went with very little requests for inputs from me. In a short time, I had Windows 7 up and running. So far it looks like a great setup. With a few other programs, the MacAir reports that it still has 88GB free out of the 128 GB SSD.

When will Apple come with an update so 2010 Macbook Airs again can use the Appstore?

the problem appears in Lion and Mountain Lion and came with the last update to the operating system

well, Apple fixed the problem and if so, thank you.
I have a late 2010 Macbook Air, and I did the following:y
formatted the SSD disk and installed Snow Leopard again from the usb-stick and made the updates
Then I made a partition called Lion and downloaded Lion from App Store in Snow Leopard and installed it on the partition called Lion. The version of Safari with it was 5.1.6 and App Store worked. Then I made a copy of Safari to the desktop, updated Lion (except Safari). Then I transferred settings etc with Transfer assistant from my Mac mini to my Macbook Air in Lion. Safari 5.1.6 was not working, but App Store worked and Firefox did.
Then I downloaded Mountain Lion once more from App Store and installed it over Lion.
And ... hooray.... Safari is version 6 and App Store is working
